Same situation except I was able to get on before the wipe and this morning. Bad lag and a dc convinced me to wait until later to reconnect and now I can't log into the patcher.
seems like an announcement that the patch server is down / is going down, is exactly what the Announcements section of the forum is for. However last thing there is the servers coming up this morning.
Interestingly enough I CAN connect to the European server, and my character i made at about 8am PST this morning on the US server is there. Are the servers supposed to match like that?
