Game is back up!

FE is currently down (and has been for close to 12 hours now afaik), LO is pinged, no info about possible uptime yet. ------------------------- Forwarded this to discord, incase noone replies here (i dont use Steam, so no idea myself).

Looks like the marketplace is back! We also finally have a backpack for our chars again!

Wednesday, at about 1 pm CST USA everyone is invited to a 3 day event, hosted by Kindred! It is a 3 day event, with each part lasting about 1-2 hours: * Day 1 is scavenger hunt. * Day 2 is bike ride to PT. * Day 3 is a PT blowout defense. Yes, there will be prizes! Event is mostly geared towards newer players but everyone welcome!

Edit: Halloween Skitter event is running! Corrected waypoints for some of the quests here

Kingman View subsector has likely crashed - avoid going there to not get your chars stuck in limbo.

The game is mostly the same it was back in 2014, if that helps, just no marketplace, and no reward points. From what i know right now - its safe to say the AMA will be APB centered. I asked about one for FE too, but didnt get anything concrete [2nd quote here]. But there is a real posibility of getting FE info during APBs lucky day, especially since knowing FE players - there will be at least a few lurking there and asking about FE all the time. Whatever FE related info gets dropped on discord and not reposted to the forums by LO themselves - ill put it here.

I reposted this, since it confirms the AMA being next week - the AMA itself will be APB centered, and the mentioned gun and events are for APB. The rest of us over at discord are expecting / hoping for FE info during it or shortly after it, since FE barely got anything this year. (Ill edit the original message for clarity)

AMA for APB: no set date yet. Date&links will be added when LO shares them, since theres still chances of FE related info in it.

Somewhat of an update Seems like APB should get another AMA this year: Regarding FE / Remake: Id like to think this implies that FE will either get some air time during APBs AMA, or that we will get a separate one for FE too.

FE launcher / updater / whatever was bugged for most of the day and required a bypass to be able to play. Game is down for maint now. Edit: its back, issues ^ fixed.

No, but the launcher was bugged for most of the day and required a bypass to be able to play. It is down for maint now. The bypass: If youre using the G1 launcher - open FE install location and type "frontend LOGGEDIN=TRUE PASSWORD=" into the address bar, hit ENTER. If youre using Steam - same, but with "frontend LOGGEDIN=TRUE PASSWORD= STEAM=TRUE".

This applies to recent issues with FE too:

Emily is pinged on discord (no response yet), yes - there are more player complaints about it there.

At least some players are finding char select screen completely empty after todays maintenance. LO is pinged, waiting for a response. Edit: some ran into this after crashing / relogging. If anyone is still ingame - LA and Embry regions might be dead, avoid going there. Edit2: Emily is here, server is being restarted again. Edit3: issue should be resolved.

FE went down for maintenance about 4 hours ago, and currently is still down. According to Emily, LO is also attempting some changes to make it run smoother for us. Edit: its up!

Server should be down for maint right about now.

Server should go down for maint any minute now. Edit: its UP!

Server is back UP!

Info relayed to Emily, shouldnt take much longer from now.

At times - it runs well for a few hours and then rapidly goes to crap. Other times theres minimal, but noticeable, lag right after a restart - this isnt normal. Some are thinking that the last restarts are done improperly (e.g. not all processes actually get restarted), also Emily has been very quiet lately, so its a real posibility that someone else took over doing them for a while, and things arent working out the way they should. Current status - the server gave up and went for a nap xD LO is notified again.

No restart for about 48 hours now afaik. Likely time for a ping. (Ping done, now we wait)

Server is back up!

Late reply, but it went down for a restart about an hour ago, no ETA on uptime.

Server has been restarted, issues should be gone now.
