OctoWow - Forums

After I type my password it will eather hang on connecting or skip the connecting and go disconnected from server. The server is up, I haven't been banned at least to the best of my knowledge. It was saying that my IP isn't whitelisted on the website. I don't get to pick my IP's, its not static. Everything else is up to date and I was playing last night but this morning it refused to connect.

Same problem i have

You can check on the server status at https://octowow-status.shunrai.workers.dev/ This will save frustration at the login screen.

Thanks for the link. I didn't realize the server was under DDoS attack. The main page was saying Online.

I'm having trouble even before this step. I open the launcher (which I just redownloaded today) then I press the play button, only to have the launcher reappear 30 seconds later, but the game itself doesn't start. I've tried just launching the game itself from my OctoWoW folder, but nothing happens.

Any ideas?
