    Hey there, I started playing this game today on the game client. The first time I started it up, it took a few tries but the window eventually opened and I was able to play. However, when I went to logout and restart the game client, it would not load no matter how many times I tried. My internet connection is relatively fast, around 55 MB/sec download speed and 30 MB/sec upload speed, but has frequent second-long blips in the connection. So when I try to Preload the game from the client after logging in, it loads for a while then gives me the following message: "
    Your connection to the server is either slow or unstable. To improve your gaming experience, we recommend that you download the game in its entirety." Which I believe I did, unless there is a second download link. Is there a way to fix and/or override this message? If not, is there something you guys could do about it?

    Also, how do you play directly from the browser? It may not be a good idea for a shaky internet connection like mine, but I might as well ask. I'm on chrome, if that helps.

    Thanks,

    - Yessibella

    Hello @yessibella
    Welcome to DSO forum.

    ThinClient might be experiencing some troubles at the moment.
    Try to play the game through browser. For playing on browser you need to do following:
    • Download Java Plugin for browser (download 32bit version, if your browser is 64bit download 64bit version)
    • Close the browser and install the plugin
    • Open the browser and open Drakensang Online home page
    • Since you already have created account, enter username and password in "Existing Users" section and hit "play now" on next screen
    • Then Java pop-up window will ask you something like "do you want to run this application", you can chose "always run"
    • Play the game
    It is not too difficult as it seems, it takes more time to assemble this message than going through above steps. :)
    Let me know if you are able to start the game.

    Enjoy the game
