[GI] This Game has turned to crap!!

Servers down... lag like never before.. this game has turned to crap all I can say.

I think is best for me to find some other past time enjoyment, this game just isn't doing it for me anymore. Too many problem that never get fixed.

pls dont tell me you are quitting D: omggggg noooooo wait till server restart FT

 

`°ƒµll·†Ħгô††lє°´, I am sorry you are having this much difficulty with the game. Can you tell us what are the primary issues you are having? This may better assist the Support team in resolving the issue.

Best regards,
.-Raijin-.

 

Literally every player in the game is having the same problem! Just log into the map and try to do something you cant even move! Like are you joking?

 

Sure it's not a problem on your end?

I was on a friend's internet (really good speed), and I had no problems what so ever. On my home network, I had latency issues.

 

It's server based, some servers (GA4) work perfectly fine, others like GA1 are so bad you can't even log in. Please Bigpoint for christ sake stop telling us its our issue and wake up to the your own issues!

 

This is exactly true. All one must do is log onto GA1 for 50 seconds and see!!!!

 

Just to edit my previous statement, turns out now I cannot even gain access into GA4... looks like every server is now slowly shutting down?! Ugh..

 

Having issues on GE1...

 

Thank you all for your comments and concerns. I have been with this game since the beginning, well 3 months after release.

Long ago we had lag issues that where extreme yet once you got somewhat use to it the game was still playable, you just had to get your timing down

I remember when we even had that good ol' "top of the hour" lag hit. That wasn't so bad because we all knew when it was going to hit and made sure we were at a port for 5 minutes or so. But lately, past few weeks, things seem to be going down hill here on the game.​

For three weekends "WE" or many many of us can not play this game due to server issues. This usually occurs later on the Friday, Saturday & Sunday evenings. You can tell things are beginning to happen as the evening goes on, locking becomes difficult, arriving at port and waiting 4 or 5 seconds to be able to jump, and when you finally do make the jump that takes what seems an eternity. Killing NPC's and seeing the numbers (ep,honor etc) roll by well after the kill.
Eventually you find that you have traveled across the entire map and are sitting at port just to realize "really" your still in mid map getting hammer'd by either an NPC or an Enemy. Of course logout is not available. By 9-10pm the game is completely not working, logout takes 3 minutes.
Clean the cache, clear the flash, delete all sites in the flash, log back on and boom no game page, barely a main page.

I've never been a quitter in anything in my life, ok ok I've quit this game a couple of times but always returned the next day with a redeemed attitude towards things. But I truly am growing tired of the inadequacy of the Development Team. Get your act together or toss in the towel and give up!!!

Sorry for my rant here folks but sheeesh I try and try to hang on here hoping it will all get better, but it's going backwards so badly it's becoming worse than ever.

Don't get me wrong, this thread is directed at the Development Team. The Forum Team is by far some of the best I've had the pleasure to deal with.

-ThunderHeat you are a good friend and I thank you for your kind words of encouragement.

PS: .-Raijin-. Log onto GA1 chat (it might be working) and talk to the evening players, you will get a real good idea of what has been happening.

It's not us, it's a game issue.

Ok, i agree with Full Throttle on this.

This has been an ongoing issue since Friday when DO put in the x2 gg weekend

Read the following thread and keep up with the players:

Well here we go again. Monday evening 19:41 hours server time or 7:41pm if you prefer.

Log in to game, 7 minutes to jump a port. Actually the jump never happened while I was on the game screen, I had to cancel game screen, refresh main page then try and bring up the game page again. First attempt was a no go, refresh again and game page finally opens. Lag is soooo bad game is not playable, Again and still. I took a video of it and will upload it later this evening and provide a link to it.

So I guess it's TV time

PS: Let me add here, this problem is a problem on all browsers I've used. Believe me, I have them all

 

They say DO is under ddos attack, it may explain the lag, but i don't see how it can be under ddos for 3 days. check the other thread about this issue.

 

JUST DO A SERVER RESTART IT SEEMS TO ALWAYS BE FINE AFTER A SERVER RESTART.

 

lol this game died ages ago. Im having these problems too on GA5 and i hardly play this anymore.

Dan

 

I can't get battle map to open at all tonight on GA1
Logged into USA East - no problem. It's the game, not the players.

 

lmao explain the issueshow long u got?

 

Having same issue on Global Europe 2.Lag is up to 13 sec easily.Fix it please.

 

OMG! They closed out my thread and suggested I clear my cache. Do these people not read for comprehension? If it were my pc, I'd experience the same on all servers.
They also said it was due to high unwanted traffic. Seriously? Unwanted? Do they not want players to play? WTH does that mean?

 

Unwanted traffic means DDOS, which stands for Distributed Denial Of Service, some people trying to overload the DO servers with way too much requests than they can handle in a selected period of time with the purpose of making them unreachable or slower in handling requests, which means slower response time which also explains the lag we are facing.
