XBOX Playability (DO NOY BUY IF YOU ARE THINKING ABOUT IT)

[wayne0824]

I have to say that this is the WORST game I have ever played as far as playability issues. I have had this game since day one and have had nothing but problems as far as being able to get on and actually play the game.

For instance, over this past weekend the longest I was able to play at one time without getting kicked off was about 1/2 hour. Usually it was more like 5-10 minutes and I would get a Critical error message that the Defiance servers were unavailable.

I have been in constant contact with TRION support about the issues with little to no change (actually the playability over this past weekend was the worst it's ever been). I have tried all their "fixes" and nothing has worked.

If you are thinking about purchasing this game, think again, unless you are willing to put time into a game that is pretty much worthless and was not ready for release.

I would advise waiting until after the game leaves Beta.
It has a lot of potential, but it's currently not worth the gas money I spent on the way to the store... >_>

Bahahahaha! Good luck to you. Works fine for me.

Sorry to hear of your troubles man, but I would fully recommend this game to anyone. I have got 5 of my friends to play it and they love it as much as I.i hope your problems are finally resolved soon so you can enjoy this game as much as I. peace

I've also had this game since day one.

For the first week they had the servers down almost every night for an hour or so to do some minor fixes etc. Otherwise, i've had no problems connecting or getting into games and generally find lag/performance etc has improved.

So,
You're either unlucky
OR
I'm lucky
OR
There's a troll somewhere on this topic.

I rarely have playability issues on xbox 360. Don't let the haters get to you. If u get booted off every coupe of hours for no reason it takes about 30 seconds to log back on...

I'm not having the same issue on my end. What has support suggested so far? When I first got the game I had to go through the standard set of port forwarding setting on my router.

I have to agree with above post, You should really check your IPS. The members in my clan also experianced that problem on the first week, but ever since those new patches rolled out. They've been able to stay connected, with a few minor hiccups. But nothing changing a shard/Server fixes that issue.

I rarely have disconnects. Not one over the whole weekend. You might wanna check your internet connection.
