I get the same error, I understand there is a maintaince going on. The only point we're trying to say is normally the launcher would atleast load so you could see the news and updates on things. Which its not doing that. Other friends of mine have stated they get the same message though.. so maybe they have changed the way its being handled. I would hate to still ahve the same problem when the patch actually goes live and miss out on a home ;p When i could of been using this time to fix the issue. But since others got it as well.. I'll wait and see
