OK...I'm sure you guys will get it fixed ASAP. However, in the interest of fairness (and randomness), why not just leave things as they were...a few more than 600 get in, some crash once and a while and logging in becomes a lottery, not the Berlin Wall?

If there is no hardware or software damage being done by an occasional dump of random players, then what harm is there?

Just because you can control something, does not mean it's the best or fairest way to deal with the issue.

Its not dumping random players, its dumping everyone.  I'd rather have the people who can get in have a solid experience than a large number get blown up because the server wasnt stable then complain they lost their bots or just quit.

Watch out, i here reading what you guys said!

I have the next 2 days off, so hopefully it will be worked out by then

But for now I am not as disappointed to have to go to work as I cant get in to play anyway!

I'd just like to report there's a massive number of bots running around in Perpetuum.  Do you have any plans to deal with this? 

But seriously, thanks for taking all of us who are migrating from EVE Online.  I already subbed (yay low prices!) and I think a lot of others will too.  Hopefully this will give Perpetuum a serious boost in subscribers and activity...and presence in the market.

Also posting to say I haven't talked to a Dev yet.  But the mere fact that I can, and most likely will, fills me with joy. 

And of course there are no monocles.

Of course there are no monocles. Bots have at least half a dozen eyes. That would be over US$500.

I appreciate that efforts were taken to allow a small base a good gameplay.

Nevertheless I would like it more to play instead of reading the forums .

If it is easy possible, you shout extend the error message that you can't log in with pointer to this thread, as I think it would have helped me saving some time, if I would have found the hint whats going on a bit earlier.

Nevertheless still thumbs up for this great game. The sum of all annoying bugs in more than 6 Month is way below the list I'm used from other games.
It is quite frustrating sometimes, eg when loosing bots due to server issues and GM declare they could not reimburse, but I have seen worse things happening in other MMO.

The server Cap seems to be around 500, with peak demand  reaching 600 there are a number of players that can't log in. So the server is accomodating a large portion of the potential players. Dev's have said abouthey are working on the fix, so they can remove the Cap, but you should be able to log in sooner.

You can always check the graph here;

If its under 500 you should get right in. If it's 'flat' at the top, you'll just have to get lucky and log in as someone else logs out.

Goffer: that information is displayed in the server status message, on the client login screen. Watch that space for updates as well, besides the forums.

And I think I speak for the refugees here when I say, in the terms us old EVE players use and can understand:

UNDOCK AND BRING IT.

Any chance of free monocles being given to those us that can not get into game atm? Thanks for communicating. I can wait

In case of 'arkhe based ddos attack' you may do not let trial accounts jump to new alpha islands where most of old players live (and new players who recently upgraded their account will move there soon too).

Despite this hidden bug and login problems we are glad to see new players.
