Any expert on complex architecture like high capacity videogame servers and protocols are hard to come by. They will start with making an inventory of how everything is set up and coded. that will take days, if not a week. Then they start to identify weak spots, and propose solutions. If they need to code themselves, it will take even longer. And hired help most often doesn’t work weekends, at least not on short term or without a very sizeable bag of money.

I don’t blame people for being pissed. I can’t… I am being patient. I can afford a little R&R off the game. Some can’t and they have the right to be pissed. You guy’s asking them not to is stupid. They had time to get this right, and they Whiffed, all you fanboy’s need to accept that and move on lol.

Maybe read with understanding. None of us said that the game is bad, most of us supporting the game for years, we are complaining that we cant play it. Offline mode and Online mode are not the same. Read the negative reviews on steam, majority are about server issue. They should have tested the game before release, they didnt, they released the game you cant play. This is a scam.
If they are incompetent to make a game then they should go do something else. Not everyone is made to be a programmer. They invest their career to making a game, and they suck at it.

Thank you.
I dont know who Judd is, this is the first post ive made (scond now)and I came to the server status thread expecting something that said ‘up’ or ‘down’ or working on it.
Did not expect to see us the players able to even make any comments in this thread cluttering it up. Where did you get find the info?

EU West (not sure why I say west, since EU only has one server…) down as well. According to steamcharts, 250k people trying to login. Nearly twice as on the release day.
Hello weekend!
There were a quarter million people playing at peak yesterday on Steam. Server issues aside I’m enjoying the game.

They did test. They just aren’t willing to get more servers because the playerbase will drop to ~30% of its max on release. They aren’t fixing anything, they are waiting.
I know how long its been in development.
Its also a small studio formed by randoms from reddit.
Also backend stuff can go crazy and not work properly at any given time.
But yes continue crying. its not going to do anything.
Back again for my daily complaint post.
See you all tomorrow.

I know that issues are typically resolved quickly, which isn’t the case here
The funniest for me is that this has the makings of an DDoS attack and no one so far thought about it.
Considering how smooth the game has been playing for me all morning (Brazil here), and out of nowhere, disconnect and forever loading screens, and the fact that the devs here have been pretty much adding to the server statuses real-time, specially when they’re doing any kind of backend changes, and we haven’t heard from them since yesterday, makes me think that it could be an external source impacting connection.
Any gamer who played any online games should have seen what a DDoS attack does to a server (oh hi, Blizzard!), and this “Unable to connect to servers” error has “DDoS” written on it, in my opinion.

What a game, when you can login though - am i right? Been having a blast on the 1am-7am EU West window - but its been near impossible to play at even remotely ‘peak’ times in Europe. I do hope it gets sorted as to be honest a lot of these ‘fixes’ they’ve rolled out seem to have been purely cosmetic.

EHG, I have been really patient and I love your game but guys; it’s significantly more frustration than fun right now. My fiancé and I are off to play Enshrouded, we’ll be back when the servers make the game playable. Good luck!
Nice take, brainlet

They can easily tell if they are being DDoS’d mate.
