This is stupid!

[Taaltos]

if you cant understand op's frustrations why post if all the whinging annoys you dont read it. but get the **** off your high horse and stop sucking so much **** if trion cant handle a little critiscm, there probably in the wrong industry. are u even 100% what u linked to (the top story is an interview with the people that brought you the show and game, whats that got to do with ****.)

This! This right here is why the sigh. Posts like this incoherent string of expletives. Here, lemme snip a few things from you, as you seem to have issues reading and navigating pages.

FKN LAAAAG – Icelandic technical term which usually translates quite well to most other languages for some reason. This started showing up yesterday when scaling up certain platforms well beyond anything we’ve had before and we ran into glass ceilings. We don’t like lag. We hate lag. So we respond to it fast. You should also note that lag manifests itself for many reasons, ranging from networking to game servers. So especially if you are on XBOX, grab whiskey and take a dance or two, the game server problem above is causing this as well.

Game Server Crashes – Let’s be sure to not confuse these with us taking down the server to apply updates. This is totally different and started getting much worse, especially for XBOX in the last 24 hours. You will experience this as disconnects but just tonight, it has ended with full server crashes. Twice. No amount of whiskey, dances of tango or foxtrot can fully convey our (calm professinal) rage and frustration over this.

That being said. I’m watching as we speak a large number of our operations team around the XBOX servers which just crashed again. That is no small feat, the XBOX cluster has more cores than an army of gold farming bot runners would know what to do with. But they will persevere, as they always have and won’t stop till they’re up again. The servers, not them, you pervert.

THEME OF DAY 3, DON’T DO THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AND EXPECT DIFFERENT RESULTS
POSTED ON: 04.05.2013
This is very much how we’re operating with our largest operational issue right now, the XBOX lag. We are constantly trying new approaches and changes to hone in on what is the cause. This isn’t a single bug or one problem. It’s not a programmer making a spelling error somewhere or someone stumbling over cables.
The XBOX cluster is a very complicated but wonderful beast, with very many moving parts. We are fiddling with all these moving parts, we take down the cluster, we reconfigure, add hardware to different functions, do server code updates, analyze network traffic, change the load balancers, change server protocols, move gateways around, poke the sgörneebörní (that denoted the end of my technical prowess).
For short, we have a lot of people analyzing, monitoring, watching constantly so many different types of logs, server metrics, dials and blinking lights (I’m on the blinking lights detail for some reason). We have external professionals as well, from networking specialist to Microsoft swat teams helping us out. That’s why you’ll see a XBOX client patch later tonight, it’s one attempt to change something which will remove the need for one of the load balancers amongst other things. Fewer moving parts, less things that can blow up.
We’re incredibly sorry for this state. This was by no means foreseeable. If this was just Game Server code, it’d be easy to diagnose. It isn’t. This is intra-server protocols between the entire cluster. But we’re on it. We didn’t scale these servers up from 2 people to 10s of thousands of people by luck alone.
But if you’ve been following how we do things from our last blog, here is the overview of today’s focus.
Continued XBOX issues – Lag and server crashes. Our server operations team is throwing everything and the sink at it. We even had to stop one of them from throwing a kitchen sink at a server. Yes, we’re frustrated. Don’t ever think otherwise. We even employ “eat your own dog food” and have people play on XBOX instead of other platforms.

I’m now going to run to deploy a client patch to the XBOX and another round of updates to the XBOX cluster as it just crashed. So we’re using the opportunity to deploy a client patch and do one reconfiguration since we had that planned for later anyways. Then it’s back to watch the blinking lights. Hey, why did I get the blinking lights detail? “Are they blinking still?” … “Yes”. Something’s awry.

US XBOX – Our battle with this server cluster continues. I’d put swearwords here but I think you can hear me in your head right now. You will have noticed some great server moments in the last 24 hours, some not so great. We continue to re-configure, deploy fixes, roll some back, try something different, measure, analyze. There’s just so many of you shooting so much. If you could just be nice and all get along. Hellbugs have feelings too you know. This is by far our top issue. We’ve thrown a ton of more hardware at it (we had reinforcements ready), changed client-server protocol to remove load balancing setups to have less moving parts and a host server code changes.

If me trying to be informed as to what is actually going on with the game, and being invested in the 60.00 that I spent, makes me an *** kisser, then color me guilty.

Go ahead and spew your anger, I really don't care.

I try to help out people with questions, as it's frustrating when something doesn't work or isn't working as intended, and nobody gives a crap, or comes to a thread where I'm asking questions, and posts similar to the ones you have. They aren't helpful, they don't make you seem too intelligent, and they are pointless.

I'd rather spend my time finding some things out for myself, giving the company the benefit of the doubt, and being an informed consumer and a thinking member of society, rather than some drooling froth spewing pleb who can't string together a coherent thought and sounds like a burner from the game, "GAAH! FIIIRE! HOOOT!"

Now that I've walked you through the experiences Trion has been having with XBox servers, and have informed you a bit, I hope you have a nice day, and that someone gives you a hug, you need one.

well said sentence was in different thread and if you think it made sense then u guys are changing the meanings of words. and if you cant understand what i wrote above there is a section for people who's first language isnt english. another point i feel like im talking to a bunch of little kids. u for starters are like can i lick you're (that on was for u) balls trion, after the patch you jump on the oh its not working bandwagon then you come here and jump on the this guy is whinging this guy sticks up for him lets get him bandwagon. f.ag-got.

I'm going to go with....

well i didnt see it as being nice and helpfull. you linked him to nothing you come in and took a big sigh. in real life if i asked you a question and you turned around and gave me a big gay sigh i would be looking at you funny at the least. think about it how would you like it. and you whinging about everyone whinging is just as bad as them but they do it once and you do it in every thread.

HALLALLLUHAA!!!! Thank you for finally saying exactly what I've been thinking & could'nt put in to words. This game & it's developer's are Light Years ahead of anything or anyone else in the industry as far as informing the consumer's , and the little bit of problems they are having are getting fixed pretty fast. If these people cant understand a few hicups in the first few weeks maybe the should go back to ATARI!!, & let the rest of us enjoy a realy good, fun game with a pretty gosh darn good team behind it.

The game is great. It's got it's flaws, but they're being fixed, even if that may trigger another bug. xD

This company since Beta 3 Rift has been more transparent than any other AAA Publisher/Developer out there.

It's no wonder Oveur seemed a bit camera shy in the live feed.
