I only had one timeout last night, not sure what is different on my end.
I had only one or two timeouts (and one Que time) yesterday on PC NA. No problems before then. To me, it seems only natural since there are a ton more players in the game right now because of the new content. I have had similar experiences with every other MMO I have played - either DCs or lag for the same reasons. Should Trion beef up the infrastructure during these times? Sure, but it will all even out after a week or so anyway.
I have several accounts, so I stand two 'toons next to each other to trade, out in the middle of no-where. No action around me, I'm trading from one 'toon to the other. One toon will get booted while the other is fine.
It happens more than once, it alternates unevenly between the two, and it doesn't matter which one is actually doing an inventory selection at the time.
It will also happen when I go off to fight with one of the 'toons, leaving the other as a place to port back to.
** The 'toon I'm fighting will frequently be the one to disco' alone. The place holder will just as often be the one to stay logged in. And it's also often happened that the fighting 'toon will lag out after having recently logged back into the area with few players and NPCs to snipe some raiders or 99rs and lag out without doing much so the 'buffer' hasn't had more than a few minutes to fill on a 16 Gig PC.
It's random, and not specifically related to the battlecomputer in use at the time.
These are just my opinions.
I have lots of opinions.
Some of them, on occasion, people have agreed with.
I do not trust those people.
NA/pc.
2013: Mid E-5XXX main, but I played 26+ 'toons from E400 to E5500. (Dormant)
2050: Lvl 499X main
since the last patch i wasn't experiencing the random time-outs i was experiencing when they did the patching for the recent DLC
Today started with 3hrs of down time . Got on talked to the clan mates with hopes of hearing good news, nope ..still disconnects going in to maj arks, and lost ark battery because the ark will not start.But before they could finish I was disconnected at a dark matter
I downloaded the patches yesterday as i have't played since 1st of october and the game worked very well for me on the ps3 i even had a voice chat for the 1st time ever and i had no dc at all so i really dont see where your coming from.
Did you really play ... Did you get you get the dlc? If so what can I say you are one of the luckiest people I never heard of.
