Something that will help in letting people know if the Server is up or down is a simple addition to the Website and Launcher. A simple Greenlight for Up and Red for down would go a long way in helping players Identify if its worth trying to sign in. Or a banner that sticks out on both the website and Launcher notifying players they will not be able to access the game at that time.

    They have a server status forum. If they're not updating that enough, then an indicator is going to suffer from the same problem. They usually post a message on the launcher/login screen if servers are down.

    This isnt entirely true at all. The indicator can easily be tied into the server itself so that it appears without any manual input from someone taking down the Server.

    They could I suppose but how's that any different from the server returning you a detailed error code? It's very possible that during a routing issue, you would see the server as offline and others as online.

    The server does not give clear codes. Besides it saves time when you can check instead of loading and logging in. So I realy wish to put it on ghe site.
