If there are other people having problems connecting to the Global Server please reply to this post and let the MS Tech support people know so something can be done. When you reply here let me know what time it was when you could not connect as it is most likely an overloaded server issue rather than something to do with your computers setup.

I know this issues is not related to my setup as I am able to connect to the server only very early in the morning "around 1AM". This is fine when it’s the weekend but I would enjoy playing it at a reasonable time as well. When I first got the game I was able to play after work for about two days and then it just got worse and worse... now I can hardly get on at all. Other than that one issue I can’t complain about this game at all. It runs perfectly, looks great and is 100% addictive.

Thanks for all the hard work from Digital Anvil on this simply awesome game!
