Much more frequent disconnects / critical errors post 2.011 patch

[NeuroticHitman]

Post 2.011 on xbox 360 I have seen my critting out ("The Defiance Service is not Available") of Dark Matters and Warmasters go all the way up to 100% failure rate. Last night I participated in five dark matter arkfalls and three warmasters and critted out of every single one of them.
One friend that I play with regularly confirmed the same thing.
I have previously submitted logs to Phantasie Trion of the same issue and was told they would look into it, but this was prior to yesterday's patch.
I'm just curious if others are having similar issues.

Lag and disconnect alive and thriving on PC/NA post 2.011 as well.

They will have a fun time trying to determine if it was the patch that is causing it, or the huge uptick in traffic from the first episode airing. It did get quite interesting last night with all the people trying to input the code.

I didn't notice much difference on PS3 last night. Funny, I thought about making a guide for PS3 players to help with DCs before free to play, but if other platforms are starting to have the trouble we have too...

Pretty much unplayable right now (PC/NA)...on my fourth try in less than an hour, with none of the attempts lasting more than five minutes before lagging out. Beginning to wonder why I keep trying...

XBOX 360. Same here. If this is TRION's idea of another improved patch, they need to check the actual definition of server stability. Pathetic patch broke the already broken game. Thank you for more constant critical errors and disconnections. Also enjoying the increased lag and especially the inability to play. AWESOME...

I find the issue of total lag failure in Defiance the worst in large events, arkfalls, conflict sites, incursions, etc.
In PC/NA, everything on the screen freezes, your clan mates still see you move and shoot. You can't interact with anything, can't go to friend. You hit map and it comes up blank, same with inventory and loadout. The game does not recover. The only way to have the game work again is to exit, sometimes reboot. Nothing like repeatedly losing your entire score when you play a major arkfall or incursion from the beginning. Makes the game not worth playing. It happens on my PC and to other clan members' PCs.

In addition, there have been multiple times I have done arkfalls or conflict sites and had my score disappear in the middle of the event. The only way to get it back was to beam to a clan mate who was doing the same event with me.

You have to do something about this Trion. You get the game fun again then patch it back to a broken state.

Very frustrating. Today I lost huge scores because of the crashes. Also find that some minor tasks cannot be completed at all. Such as collecting chrysalis and such.

P.S. I am on PC.

I was getting disco'd at each major event around 5:30-6:00 pm EST and decided to give it a rest for awhile. Came to the forums to be greeted with trouble signing into my Trion World account. Now I can't get back into the game at all. The patcher is lagging out and once I manage to wrestle past that, it is just Defiance Service Unavailable.

Edit: Wow that was painful, back in the game now though.

This has been happening to me since Tuesday. Everything that Arglemesh describes is what I've been experiencing all week long. Frankly, I've pretty much just left the game alone because of it. Whether it's due to recent patches or the significant rise in players after going F2P, Trion seems to be quiet on the subject. Either they're unaware of it or flat-out don't give a damn enough to at least say, "We'll have it fixed soon(ish)."
