That kind of comments shows a lot of the way some people thinks. I`m sure that most of the people that is complaining has good enough internet conections.

I`m not the kind of guy that likes to whine all the time about every BS that i read in here but i must say that i suffer a few disconections while playing this game, and please don`t say that it is my conection.
Let`s be a little more constructive about the comments about this kind of stuff.

I finished the siege at Kenn farm, I came in with seconds left, tagged an enemy and got credit for everything.

The next two Sieges I tried I actually started, there was about a minute left, I had over 40K points, and... "server timed out". I try to log back in and it tells me "the service isn't available". Only after the Sieges are done will it let me log back in.

So far I find that sieges are fun, but infuriating due to the instability they introduce.

Simple and wrong.

Sieges would be great if I didn't time out every freakin time!!!

Considering it can barely handle Arkfalls this does not surprise me.

Forum people's stop pointing fingers to everyone except trions crappy servers. I have the best Internet a residence can own and pay $100's for it and I have horrible lag only at time of sieges... Interesting , only during sieges. Obviously sieges tax the servers more than they are built to Stand for data. Trust me, I work with servers and trion servers show clear signs of being overloaded with data.

Sorry server error ;)

Guess I got lucky. I finished kenn farm with no problems. In fact I finished them all with no problems. After the chinatown one i disconnected but it was after I got credit for the siege and fast traveled. And kenn farms siege had hulkers which make the weapon xp that much better.

Just a suggestion....I'm sure mangy of you already thought of this but until the next patch when trion is going to strengthen their servers, don't use infectors at a siege!! First oneI did yday was diablo station and it was crazy, but it was running fine. Literally the second I shot an infector needle my game started lagging terribly. And literally the second I changed weapons I wwasn't lagging anymore.

Might help some of you *shrug*

Ok, so I've now also been kicked off at 2 Sieges. What I find more troubling, is that ever since the sieges have been here, I've been getting kicked off a LOT. At least 15 times today already. And for some odd reason, fast travel to Bug N Chug is pretty much insta-doom. HUD never loads... about 30 seconds later I get timed out. So I can't fast travel there anymore? So weird...
