When launching Aisha and the boot window pops up where normally I press 1 > user > pw,

It just flat out says in red Failed to connect to server!
then just closes.

I was online on Friday with no problems.

Same here =\.

I'm on the new Launcher. And was able to play since the new Launcher came out tell today.

Just had same issue, started doing the Starlight celebration. Tried speaking with LS mates, tried /telling friends, /saying people around me and no one responded. I thought, "Surely, I can't be that much of a loser on server that EVERYONE is ignoring me.." So I restart, hoping to get my speech back and I am hit with the same issue. Maybe there's some residual issues with the DDOS attack from earlier in the week, or maybe from the new Ashita launcher. Hopefully someone can give an explanation.

Please be patient as nas looks into the login, search, and chat issues that are now happening. These are unrelated to the new launcher.

/sigh

I cant imagine how much work goes into trying to make this work. Still super frustrating on the user end too ; ;

I now see that the lobby is up, but still encounter the same problem.

Do you have the new launcher, Rinomaru? What time were you online on Friday? viewtopic.php?f=6&t=7977

I do have the new launcher, I was on it even.

Are you accidentally launching using the old launcher?
