PS3 Servers

Hey All,

Is anyone else tired of the error message "Your online session with Defiance has been temporarily timed out"?

What is that? Last night I was kicked from playing five(5) times in less than one(1) hour.

I feel like I have to rush thru the game thinking I could be kicked any second. I like taking my time with quests.

I haven't been able to play at all since I purchased the game. Four days now of Critical: Your connection to Defiance servers has timed out. No intro, no character creation, nothing. I'm pretty upset to say the least.

Really? Are you playing on a PC?

I know the PC users are having a lot more trouble than console gamers.

Nope, PS3. And no word of what it might be. Everytime they say they have fixed the problem, I still can't connect. Frankly I'm pretty damn pissed. I keep saying I'm going to return it and I keep waiting. Today's the day to decide. If it's still like this when I get home from work, I'm washing my hands of this horrible experience.

I feel you man, I honestly have no idea what the issue might be. Where do you live? Out of US countries usually have more problems with US servers. I am in Boston. You should try deleting all of the saved data from Defiance on your PS3 (including patch/updates) and see if re-starting the processes fixes it.

My PSN is PMK-UNKNOWN if you ever get it to work. I have a small clan.

Thanks, but I've tried it already. I will try it one more time tonight and then that's it. I'm in Florida. I have friends playing it on PS3 as well. I can't for whatever reason. Restarted my modem/router and my wifi extender. Nothing works. I sent a ticket into Trion and they still haven't responded to it. The funny thing is that they say they will respond within 24hrs.

You should stick out this mess - honestly even with the bugs it's a VERY good game. I was pissed launch night, but they've already sent out another patch yesterday that fixed some major issues.

See, that's the thing. If there are new patches, they never show up/ download for me. I just don't know anymore. The premise and gameplay look great but.......

Thats so odd you can't access anything - I read a post from someone that their disk actually came scratched, unopened. You should look into trading it back for a new copy. I know it sounds crazy, but you could have received a bad disk. Explain to Gamestop or wherever you got it from that it's beyond a software issue and it could be the disk. I think Gamestop has a return policy of 48 hours, but they should be understanding because you bought a 60 dollar game that doesn't work. Simple as that.

I don't think it's a disc issue. It's a server issue. I should be able to connect to the server if it was a disc issue.
