[TEI] Have D O finally put the last nail in the games coffin ?

I have just spent 4 hours TRYING to kill sibelon.... I have died 7 times .. popped by salmon as I sat stranded in lag unable to move or see what is happening.
In that 4 hours I managed a staggering 23 sibelon.. yesterday before event started I was doing my sibelon mission.. in 2 hours I managed 60 + sibelon & 20 boss sibelon... without dying once.

So I must say a big THANKYOU !! to D O for completely killing this game.
I cannot do anything due to the serious lag that freezes me on the spot unable to do a thing.
NOW .. as expected. the enemy are using this to pop frozen players.. you only find out when you unfreeze.. DEAD and can see who / what popped you.

I'm a level 21 player.. so used to event lag. But this time D O have out done themselves and totally made it impossible to do any kind of mission or enjoy the game. They've had over 24 hours now to fix the issue or pull the event until it is fixed.. at least that way we can still play.
Until D O fix this you just cannot play at all.... rumour has it D O have said the lag will last the length of the event.. this event is the intro for this new feature.. so looks like the lag will be permanent. How true this is .. we shall see. But until it is sorted I will not be playing...paying... or renewing my premium as this game is unplayable.
I strongly recommend others do the same as D O need to face up to their mistakes and fix them... it just seems they are now at the stage of TAKE the cash from players.. but do NOT listen to them.

This is a real shame as I just made major and have always enjoyed playing, even with the pitifully insulting rewards from event missions as of late.

Sorry to say .. serious.
The only retarded part is that D O have chosen to continue with a flawed update... which from what I've read this exact flaw was brought to their attention in the TEST stages before release.

Since this update has gone live the game is now basically dead... a game that was perfectly playable yesterday is now unplayable.
No matter how you spin it it needs to be fixed or removed...
Being compensated has been mentioned... but from experience you never get compensated for lost PAID for booster time.
Lost time sat looking at a frozen screen.. lost uri from pet fuel that is burning off faster then I have ever seen in the past.

Even with all the flaws.... all I want to do is be able to play.
Pull the event.. it's missions .. until fixed... just make it so we can play.. is that too much to ask ?

 

Ok I've mentioned this a few times now, but they said that the problems are actually not related to the new assembly system. If that is true, it wont help removing it. I want to play too, but it's not like BP made these problems on purpose. There's not much we can do right now other than wait.

 

I do understand what you have said... and that D O would not want to sabotage the game.
BUT !!

These problems started the moment the update went live.... so the update is the fault. Whether bad code or memory leak/ conflict .
This leaves 2 options... fix or remove .

They wrote the update, so they should be able to fix quickly.
The fact they are refusing to make any form of open comment or apology looks like they are in no rush.. just my opinion.

Just look at the mission in previous event... kill lordakia in x-6 map... it's that all over again.. but at least you could still play that time.

 

They are blaming the issues on their ISP and equipment not owned by BP. The issue is they should have questioned the ability of this equipment before going live with the update. Previously something this big would be TESTED on a Few LIVE SERVERS before the entire Server Farm was destroyed. Now they won't even run it on the Test Server to see if there are any issues to be found. Did the problems stem from the A.S. we will never know if they do not remove it from the servers to find out. It seems that EVERY Event that had NEW items to deal with in game (not just NPC's but like Parasite Tide the Countdown counter for spawning the Gygerthrall) there were issues with them and had to re-load several Events because of this or the issues found during the Kuiper Test that were ignored until it upset the Game Economy and had to have an Emergency Repair to correct the issue.

The longer people are unable to play the more time they have to play, and find, better games and the more people that will not return to D O even IF they do correct the issues. Too many people feel they are being ripped off because they have "BOUGHT" 50% boosters and lost the ability to use them because of game issues. D O needs to take responsibility and find a way to prevent the DDoS attacks they seem to want to blame everything on, they need to come up with a secure connection to the in-game map system so we are not constantly losing connection and they need to get away from the Flash which seems to be crashing more than ever these days.

 

Ok how can i begin.....

Firstly i know that i should give DO the benefit of the doubt but , as we know , it is in human nature to put the blame on others when we screw up , especially if there is no repercussions coming.
I know that this is supposed to be a 13+ Game (or what ever) , but the people who pay for this game to stay alive are most of the time adults (even tho i consider adult a person 30ish+ i will use this term since it works for who ever can think for himself)... Now trying to foul a group of mature persons that you get DDOS attacks is pretty lame ....

I mean , first if some one (or a group of hackers) would want to screw the game , they would plan a DDOS attack in the middle of the weekend (when there are most of the players online/ MHH / 2x gates and so on ) , so they could affect a bigger population and the paying one... Not in the first day of the week , when there are all DO staff at work and less players online , and let's be honest how can i belive this was a DDOS attack when it happened just after they released their new update "assembly"... Also if this was a DDOS attack (for real some random hacker managed to DDOS a X mil. euro revenue company , most of the hackers who can do something like this might have more important things to do... ?) why would they even need to create a thread to ask players on what maps are getting their problems , I'm sure that thread should just have a "placebo" effect and they prob don't use it at anything ...

And you are right about the fact that they did not ment to make this "disaster" but they managed to , and instead of removing the thing that caused N bugs they kept it .... i have to give them the fact that they are trying and actually today was better than yestrday , but for real sometimes small things are not enough..

Lastly perhaps this would not be so bad if they would not let us wait for surgeon all that time and just decide to release the most buggy version ever (i know this pissed me off mostly , and the fact that is almost impossible to get surgeon unless they add items in the shop as they promised or unless i just quit everything i have to do for the next 2 weeks and only play DO)... Or for other people might just be about how many things they screwed up in the last time (no uri in 2x event after they announced it , they announced sales and did not make them happen , they did released 1321 events in the last 4 month but nothing special always too hard... and the list ca continue )

 

I just had a thought,since the ufe players can still shoot down weaker ships during this event/infect them making them even easier to pop. Instead of just reducing honor/rewards and etc. that come with destruction of an unworthy enemy why not allow the system to use this infection tide on those players that continue to violate the new system if it has been implemented and if it hasn't this would be something I think would be worth considering as a permanent feature

 

Most people were infecting themselves because they wanted the increased Dmg versus the speed. Thus this is not a punishment to most of them.

EDIT TO PREVENT POST COUNT

And exactly what was the VALUE of this post?

 

WHY STATE THE OBVIOUS YOUR NOT ADDING VALUE TO THE CHAT........ your just spamming posts why doesnt a mod stop this

i came to this post for added value and once again HelpMeHelpYou doing a post to add post count hence his title is any one monitoring these posts he replies to every post adding no value just semi content

 

First off, Here is a copy of a Post made by Nightmare that currently resides in the Lag Discussion thread.
This is stating that the Dev team is aware of the issue and working to get the matter resolve.

http://www.bigpoint.com/darkorbit/b...ay-09-2016-feedback.114234/page-6#post-891525

As for posting information that is inaccurate - I would ask that you not make assumptions as to if this issue was previously known or that the DEV team did not repair this issue from the Test Server.

This matter is being looked into and I can assure you that this lag issue will not run the entire event.

Also as you can see from the post made by Nightmare, they will be arranging a compensation package.

So I would just like to ask that we try and be patient and understanding.

Does the OP have any further questions on this topic?

• why do mode close "feed back" posts and not re direct
• why do feed back postes get shut down with valid questons???

 

Thank you for you input on this issue. I will attempt to answer your questions to the Best of my ability.

The issue is your a mod, and you doing what mods do.
Yes I am a Mod and have been a MOD for 6 years, However I am also a UFE Level 21 player in the game since 2008.

The issues is DO is failing as a mod, do you like repeated posting "we are aware of the problem" "and we are looking in to it"
Yes I do get very tired of players posting on multiple threads the same in game issue without checking the forums posts for previous threads.

As for posting the We are aware or were looking into it means that I have reported the issue and any relevant information to the DEV team so that these issues can be addressed as quickly as possible.

GET REAL wake up we as players are over a crap game THAT WAS GOOD

• why dose DO post/and q n a we listen to players ------ when they clealry DONT

Yes they do listen and they are also working on new ways to input players ideas into the game.

• why was assembly started when no body wanted it

The assembly system may be something you don't want... however many players lower level than yourself will be able to utilize the system making their game play easier.

• why has clan base stations beeN reduced to 1 person per part (2 person clan)!!!!!!!!!!!!<<************

This issue I have no information on but I can pass this on to the DEV team as New in-game issue.

• why do mode close "feed back" posts and not re direct

Feedback threads are created at the request of the DEV team to see and obtain needed information on a specific subject and time frame.
They are closed at the request of the DEV team once the information is collected. These posts are not left open as to become an ongoing discussion.

• why do feed back postes get shut down with valid questons???

Posts on Feedback threads that are off topic or slanderous will be delete. If you have a question or issue you can always make a thread in the Technical section of the forums.

I hope that I have answered your questions to the Best of my ability.

Does the OP (Original Poster) have any further questions on this topic?

Euhm im not sure if im wrong about this or if its because of the time im playing atm.
But they just rebooted and im having 0 lag issues? and the update is still there?

Am i correct that the issue is solved? or is it just because i play on retarded times ?

 

if it was a ddos attack no one and i mean no one would be able to play, cast your minds back to when the site actually did get attacked, no one could log in

 

They did find a problem and applied a HotFix to correct the issue but it has not cleared all issues that have been found. It has just removed the major part of the LAG.

 

lol the only way to fix is to break away from the browser game, and make it a download with patches. like ive said over and over and over in multiple threads now. theyve talked about it, and they should be making this their number one priority to rewrite everything on a new engine and revamp it. DO reloaded deus x
