Somepony Say Marshmellow?
(i know old joke )

[Winter_Breeze]

It says that my login is wrong and then I register and it says ok you are now registered but it still won't let me login

The 64 bit version just crashes when I attempt to join a server, and the 32 bit version I downloaded after that happened actually had a crash error.

Why does the beginning of these events always start out rough?

[Deimoser]

The most the game will let me get to is the map of canterlot and viewing the city. Then the two songs just loop like nothing wrong

That's just the server being extremely slow due to the amount of players online. If you wait it out, it should eventually load.

i have been stuck on what i think is the "Cantermore" screen ever since i entered the airship in cloudsdale

[LostSanity]

Fix the issues please LoE team.

[Dark Spectrum]

It appears no one can go to any other area besides the area they spawn in, with SugarCane Corner being the only seeming exception.

This issue needs to be fixed, whatever is causing it.

Hey all! We know there's a lot of problems with the game at the moment, and you can bet your behind we're working ours off to get everything working as well as it possibly can. There's been a lot of trouble for us to deal with on our end, from that rather inconvenient attack on our servers to just general massive overcrowding, but we're doing our best to sort everything out - and this kind of experience will be invaluable for later development of the game.

I just want to thank you all for being patient with us during all this. LoE, after all, is still in a pre-alpha state, and these tests are fantastic for us to get as much info as possible about the game to make sure that, when it's finished, it'll hopefully run smoothly; you are all helping us to make this game better!

In the mean time, the servers are still open (and as of right now, seem to be running much better!), and (barring any further naughty shenanigans) should be remaining open until the planned end at 11:59pm EST on January 26th. We don't plan to extend the servers beyond that time; they're not free, after all, and everybody on the team here is a volunteer on the project, with real-life stuff to do during the week. You know, jobs and education and other sucky stuff. It's pretty hard to maintain the game while most of the team is MIA!

[LostSanity]

I still think it should be extended for those of us that couldn't play today.

[Pegasister Rena]

Game is super slow for me, I can't get passed any loading screens and actually play the game  :'(

[Craftybird]

Can't get on yet... says the servers are unavailable when I try to download the game

y'all honestly need to add memebers to your team who don't "exactly" have lives outside the computer i'm sure there are afew out there you could find
and someone mentioned "Donations" before and i would like to point out how great an idea that is since its not like your "Demanding" for money and you just have to do that until you get the game running smoothly enough to open for longer Periods of time
its pretty much a fact some of us are willing to give you what you need to atleast finish or get far with this project so y'all should let us
(Excuse me if i'm being blunt since i only joined the wait late last year but still)

[LostSanity]

I'm assuming the issues haven't been fixed?

[Snebze]

Haha! Been trying for three days and I still can't get logged in. Maybe next time.

Edit: then it started working. Time to play the %^&$ out of this whilst I can.

[Crimson Tail]

I honestly like the Heartlands map, except that it can be dangerous at times.
