Servers Still Unstable

[Baines]

I quitted my last game because of lag issues. It was APB:Reloaded. Everything started with small lag issues. After years It has grown and game is unplayable right now. Game's company still tries to make money as they can. They don't fix the lag. They are just keep adding some cool and expensive stuffs for people to buy.

Unfortunately, you have two scenarios at play, both of which lead to the same result.

1) The company cannot fix the game. They tried, they failed, and they gave up. Fixing the game is a lost cause, but players are still playing the game and the game is still making money. So the company shifts focus. The company makes promises, cuts costs (such as support and skilled programmers), and continues to look for ways to make money off of the sinking ship.

2) The company decides it isn't cost effective to try to fix the game. Maybe they make token efforts, but they've decided fixing the game will not recover the player base enough to justify the costs, or that such resources could be better spent elsewhere such as on newer games. Players are still playing the game and the game is still making money. So the company shifts focus. The company makes promises, cuts costs (such as support and skilled programmers), and continues to look for ways to make money off of the sinking ship.

Baines nailed it. Perfectly. Evidence: Look at how many people have left this game...and look at how many people actively complain on here about the same things. Yet, Trion doesn't really fix any of it. They claim "new mission content is primary focus" and are yet blinded to what the consumer base cries for: PLAYABILITY.

Be careful complaining too hard though.....then Trion fixes your issues with a forum ban and even a game ban for criticizing them.

I have seen a Video on Youtube where a Gaming Channel introducing the Game in early 2013 ( before the Beta) and the comment was like: "..it can be a good game, but if the lag is so bad like in RIFT it can be flop.." .. seems Server Stability is general Problem with Trion Games ... dnt know how Servers are with AA?

U wud love to pay monthly fee to get Server more stable ^^

This is the main reason I will not play Archeage. Why should I support another game when I feel like they are giving up support on a previous existing one? I have been playing MMOs since Meridian 59 and all games go through their problems, but all of them manage to fix glaring issues except this one.

Can we get an update? If the problem is with a main carrier trunk, could you send some traceroutes over to the carriers and have them find the issue? Do you need us to send you guys traceroutes to help you troubleshoot? I would be glad to help anyway I can. I believe the problem is not with the servers due to a lot of people never having the problem. I believe the problem is from a certain carrier/pathway that users go through (hops) that users are taking to get to your servers.

Thank you, did not even see this post. It has been a while since it was updated (over a month ago), but at least the community is helping out.

Yup.

I log in, I'm online all of 5 minutes and I lag so bad the world map refuses to load. I'm done.

I shall step aside and return to my first online game love, SecondLife, until Trion gets their act together. Hopefully someday, I can return and have fun in the Bay area once again.

Back to SecondLife I go, where at least they knew how to fix the lag issues, and FIXED IT.


Edit to Add: I am a Defiance Vetern by the way. Been here since launch in 2013. Finally made it to 4,300+ EGO. And I'm calling it quits until issues are fixed and the game is playable once again.

I logged in at the Earth Republic camp, ran to the Tarr Tracks box there to open it and lagged out before I even got there.

Gotta love this game. :P
