second this one!

Any kind of organised response from the devs would be greatly appreciated. Nothing back from support either!

Yesterday I brought the game and now I cant download it it kept saying error connection dropped so I waited 12hrs later and still get error connection dropped at the start not even 1 MB downloaded. (US server)

I got a mail saying:
... follow these steps to hopefully resolve the issue.

1) Make sure firewall is not blocking.
2) Make sure router is not blocking.
3) Make sure antivirus is not blocking (disable).
4) Run as Administrator
5) Make sure DirectX is up to date (through our installer).
6) University connection may be blocking perceived peer to peer traffic (though it's not peer to peer)

None of these changed anything for me, i still get the same error, and i never seen any other messege than that error eather!
So it have to be something deeper than that.. Im running windows 7 64-bit, if thats might be the case, is there something i need to install, that windows update dosnt fix?

Tried them all myself and still the same result. I am guessing it's not my setup as i have conntected and actually had a download start twice, it was just very slow (60mb over night)

Currently the best solution i have found is using torrent submitted by other players..................

The reason i got the error from my point of view, looks like a 64bit compability issue.
I reinstalled the computer with windows 7 32 bit and now it works like a charm =)

Glad that fixed it for you m8. My setup is already win7 ultimate 32bit and it doesn't work for me

Awaiting Feedback, PM sent

@ TrackerCathetel ................ status below, still no change after trying all the available options

"Still Crashing eh? Well Take a looksy

Try this first.

If set to billeanear then swap to Trilinear, and opposite if you are already on tri.
Run the Game in Fullscreen, if you are already running fullscreen swap to window and
open the task manager and increase process priority one step. - NA as can't get past launcher

Repeating patching of the game.. taskmanager end xsyon.exe restart launcher. - done

Important tip, If you downloaded patch from certain patch server lets say EU, then use EU for log in as well, if you pick US server for login after you just patched on EU server, it will start downloading same patch again. Same goes for US. Patch servers are not in sync causing the issue - can't start download from either so NA

Step 1: Run Windows update - done

Step 2: Update your DirectX Drivers and your Graphics Drivers (ATI / Nvidia) - done

Step 3: Delete Options.sav from Savegame folder in xsyon - i don't have this folder

Option 2: Delete the Zone and Script File. And redownload em from here. - done

Option 3: Reinstall the Game - Torrent Link here - done

Other: If you are getting a sound error and can't move, unplug whatever you plugged into your computer and restart the game. - have never got far enough for this error

D3D Error: Remove Options.sav from savegame folder inside Xsyon mainfolder - can't

Game Crashing and Forcing Download Each and everytime you launch the patcher? - can't get past the launcher so NA
No solution, but if you do not shut down the game client and just logout to the 2nd loginscreen you are still able to log back in. Warning: You could miss vital patches like this

IF none of the above works, fill in a support ticket and include the crash logs. "
