Pestilence here.  I have not had this issue and I have been on several times since this happened to you. Have you tried extracting the game client again and transferring your character to a clean install?

Hi all, just registered because I'm finally getting around to giving this a go!

However, I do found the server appeared to be down. Some rummaging on the forums leads to a post that the DNS should be

104.139.125.132:22

And this one works!

But with the brand new client, and using the Patcher, it downloads this instead;

172.73.154.224:22

And that one doesn't. Boo.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll update the client download Saturday!

That could be bad. can you PM me your username? I'm guessing create surface fails after you login?
