Servers

[adrokier]

Hi Everyone

I apologize in advance for the late post; It's been a busy weekend.

As many of you know, we had PC connection issues this weekend. We have finished some HW work in the past few hours that should show improvements (and I haven't seen a crash for 2 hours).

There is still more work to do, and I plan to have a better update for you tomorrow.

We will do a compensation as well.

much to my amazement since Friday I haven't had any kind of crashesor hard freezes.just every couple hours I'll get the occasional disconnect. It's the best I've seen these servers in a long time

PC EU is still unplayable. Just tried a major Dark Matter arkfall, and halfway through the encounter everything was bugging out: the monolith suddenly went poof then reappeared in its bombarding position, but with its legs still extended, it was impossible to switch weapons, loadouts were empty, NPCs were immune to damage, inventory did not load and attempting to logging out just produced an infinite loading screen.


Not really a fix so please keep working on it.

NA had this as well. Entire arkfalls would just vanish. They would pop back depending on where you were located, but as soon as you tried to engage again, everything went *poof*

Not to mention the 8 day connection queue that ended in a critical connection error that every time I hit OK, it popped back up. I had to force crash the game twice before it would let me get out of that screen.

I log in really just to do dailies and contracts. Almost every time I end up getting side tracked with something like an Arkbreak or Siege, and I start to get really into it.
Like just now I was at the very end of a Gulanee Arkbreak, and I was having fun with all the mobs and stuff.
But, almost as if Trion programmed it in to remind us that we can't have fun. I disconnected. Every time, EVERY time I start to enjoy myself, I D/C.
It's just a cherry on the topping to that when you log back in, you just get shot out of whatever you were doing, if you're even on the same server.
Literally every time I start to enjoy myself in this game, I D/C. I can't think of one time where I don't D/C. It doesn't matter what Trion says they do to the servers, I D/C.
I can have two YouTube videos going, a torrent, downloading a Steam game and video skyping with my GF...I can play ANY OTHER GAME with no problems.
Doing nothing but play this game. D/C. ONLY when I start to have fun. D/C D/C D/C.

I do my usual laugh, flip my monitor off, curse at Trion and log out. Reminding not to put money on the bit store, even though I'd like to, but what's the point when it's a game that's basically programmed to spit in your face as soon as you start to smile.

Yeah, go fix those servers, keep saying you're improving them, and keep in truckin' with those D/Cs at the worst possible time.

Let's see where to start have been playing from start and have yet to see the game NOT KICK ME OR FREEZE ME! AND NO ITS NOT OUR SYSTEMS! So don't go there!. We/I have played many a games online and I mean full games not the Alfa or betas those we/I can expect to be kicked from them now and then but not froze in them,so you can't go there. Its in your servers. You have the prob not us/me. You have had this game going for over a year now what's going on you got kids working on it? I know you had to have made other games. Let's get it right.

N/A

I don't know about the "new hardware" but tonight was the worst lag i've ever seens in a long time. All the arkfall/invasion I've tried to play were buggy with undead ennemies walking in the air, hulker blending with the ground and events that never end until a quit the game and restart it.
Hope there'll be improvements soon.

And then there are us that havent been able to even log into the game once due service not available crap.

Where is the compensation for ps3 players that have dealt with this since April 2013 ? Just saying I've been hearing we are looking into it since then .

Lol....bump this back up

The thing that pisses me off the most is that I don't think a single one of the "developers/programmers/mods" people responsible for for this hot mess has a ps3. It has to be our internet/ports/not holding our tongue the right way when entering an event.

Your servers suck. You changed the game completely after all your paying customers tried to be polite and help you fix your game you broke more **** that wasn't broken and drove off even more paying customers. I enjoyed the game had lots of friends who I conned into purchasing and for them I am very sorry.

You win....I am ready to tap out. Have a feeling you will add one more server slot from me come September

The compensation is that you now have the knowledge not to buy an inferior console gaming platform ever again.

I've been driving round in an Invisible Durango and having no legs while doing an Arkfall
