Known Issues & Common Technical Problems

I just wondered if someone has found a way to fix the "failed to connect to instance" prob?
I have just read all related Forum-Posts (which are a lot), but it seems that there is still no way to fix this yet.
Or am i missing something?
The Game is unplayable for about a month now, a lot of my friends suffer the same Problem.

I am having problems getting the game to launch at all! I get through the installation and patching. When I click Launch, a window opens which is completely blank and grey and nothing else happens. If I try to do anything with the window I get the message that "Client.exe has stopped working" and all I can do with it is close it. I have done a Pack Check and that says it's fine. If I try again, the launcher disappears almost as soon as it appears after the message "Allocating Space" comes up. I don't get the opportunity to click Launch because the grey window appears and everything happens as before. I have looked in the log file and this is what the most recent entry says:

I have read through all the posts in this thread but have not come accross any descriptions of identical issues. I have checked my GFX card and it supports up to Shader 4.0 so that shouldn't be an issue. I am running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit with 4Gb RAM and an Athlon Phenom II X2 550 3.10GHz. I do not havce a Creative Sound card and just use the integrated sound on the mobo. I have also made sure it has access through my firewall.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Many thanks


After downloading on a different PC and running I can see from the logfile that my PC is not downloading all the data to start the game. The logfile on the other PC is substantially larger. Since the last post I have downloaded again via a different route, which has worked on the other PC and then transferred those files to run on mine but no joy. I have tried the suggested VPN option which was also unsuccessful. Can anyone help? I'm getting increasingly frustrated,.

Act3 especially in Marketplace and in Piety's portal. I have already switched changed properties to -gc2. Any other suggestions? Really enjoy the game just wish Act3 didn't kick me out every time i want to switch areas.
Problems remain, only occur at act 3, lost several of maps, and the worst that you can not evolve because of freezing and dying losing points. A map of the 3% to 5% when it dies loses 15%, if freezes and dies besides losing items that did not get done XP loses in 5 maps
this is ridiculous, this game has so much potential, but it will never get out of beta if they dont fix the crashing due to all the ram this game takes up. i play WoW and diablo on high detail perfectly fine, but i cant play this game at all past act 2 without crashing every loading screen.
NO VERIFICATION E-MAIL... pls help
hmm... never had any issues with anything technical-related, but today after some time of playing I got a lot of connection issues (my internet connection seems fine as ever), hopefully it's a temporary thing!
