Server stability getting worse over time.

I’ve been playing 2050 since closed beta. Overall server stability has drastically improved however, PS4 NA are still having major lag spikes and they have been getting worse over the last 3 week. So much that you can’t see enemies, spawn vehicles, swap weapons, interact with nodes or teleport to friends or clan mates.

The arkfalls and sieges are also getting worse with the visual of enemies appearing but that’s just it, a visual. They can’t be engaged in combat, they don’t move or they phase in and out of the screen. Sometimes the enemies are completely invisible and then suddenly they pop on screen all at the same time. Players also disappearing off screen, rubberbanding and characters sometimes stutter when walking or running.

Electric Archers can one shot you dead. They can one shot you to instant extraction without the chance to self revive and the electric archers as well as the electric monarchs can hit you into a complete game crash (blue screen).

Also experienced these lag spikes in Shadow War. Characters phasing on and off screen, rubberbanding and delayed engagement.

Some of these lag spikes last only a short time but some of them last for well over 10-15 minutes (even 20+). There is also one world shard that is far worse than any of the others. Insainly worse actually. I’m sure there are other examples of stability issues but I just wanted to report that it’s been getting worse and worse over the last few weeks.

I could be wrong completely on this but are some of these lag spikes contributed to adjustments, changes or fixes being made while the servers are online and while we, the players are playing? I do recall another game with similar lag spikes but they were caused by adjustments being made while players were in game. Again, could be wrong, but if this is what’s happening wouldn’t it be better for the player base to just go offline for the 10-15 minutes to make the changes needed then restart? It would at least give the community more hope that work is progressing forward. If I’m wrong then I hope the server engineers can find the problems and address them.

its trion's servers . after 5 years plus of old defiance server issues . you would think trion would have the server issues sorted out . but nope here we are on ps4 with a upgrade 2050 still having server issues . their servers will be the end of them and the game.

On xbox it is so bad that you cant even get a team for co-op. Always says waiting on 3 people. Today it sat like that for 6 hours

They reset on xbox at least once a day, sometimes twice. No improvements and no bug fixes. I think they are resetting to make it seem like they are making changes.

They’ve always done a daily reset and it’s usually unrelated to bug fixes.

Surely they upgraded their server hardware. I have a lot of theories about 2050 and what’s happening on old defiance currently. Kind of wish my toon had its tin foiled hat...

why would they use upgraded servers for ps4 ? when they have always said its the ps3 causing issues? they probably used the old devilian servers for 2050

Sorry to digress, but I am completely shocked someone remembers Devillian even existed!

I thought the game looked good and the concept of a normal self and a shadow self (devil) is very relatable to real life. Assuming a person understands this kind of thing. I don’t think I ever played it (maybe once). But I’m aware of its final outcome.

On topic, still no acknowledgement or response of to why we are having these massive server wide lag spikes. Still no news of the status of an update for the game.
