Zone in servers crashed?

[vensula]

<p>Anyone else having issues with zone in servers not working?</p>

[KerryOK]

<p>I am having issue. I  can't get into char select after I log in. It just cicles the login servers one by one until it quits and I have to close the game client.</p>

<p>The log in servers keep giving me a message saying could not connect to the login servers, servers may be busy, try again in a few minutes. I cant even get to the character select screen. I've been trying for an hour and the network status says the servers are up.</p>

<p>No dont I feel the fool? I even looked around to see if it was a hotfix. Looks like I failed <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> Thanks for the help <img src="/smilies/283a16da79f3aa23fe1025c96295f04f.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

<p>I just got into the character select for the first time, but it's showing Unrest as DOWN and only showing 4 of my toons. </p><p>I'm eager to get in and see if the 3 pieces of PQ gear I got yetserday have been nerfed. Hope not, but the patch notes seem to suggest it.... unless they meant just the fabled stuff.</p>

[KerryOK]

<p>I don't feel the fool. I went to update notes on my launcher like I always do before hitting play. Saw the new update AND the "all servers are up" notice.</p>

[PlaneCrazy]

<p>ROFL!</p><p>Network status page just updated finally and shows all the servers up but locked now.  The system runs like a finely tooned Russian Lada <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/e8a506dc4ad763aca51bec4ca7dc8560.gif" border="0" /></p>

[Beef_Supre]

<p>I'm able to log in, get to the character selection screen, but when I hit Play it just says 'Entering world as...' and doesn't actually go anywhere.</p><p>Hopefully, and undoubtedly, will be resolved soon.</p>

[PlaneCrazy]

<p>Looks like unrest just came back up.  30 mins past estimate... not bad.</p>

<p>Same here, tries "logging into zone server" for a while then just goes back to character select.</p>
