Server issues are just lore accurate. Ya need to travel through the ages to be able to play.
The sound of the game loading on tape and 56k us robotics modem sound ftw, im only 18 honestly
I was replying to someone saying he has offline issues as well. I am glad u don;t wanna play offline! Keep it up!
They just mentionned the servers will be offline for about an hour to deploy some diagnos apps to help them fix the issuesâŠ
1h waiting for going in next location - nice)
If youâre hating on launch issues you clearly didnât play D3 on launch or donât remember how horrific it was for weeks
Cyberpunk needed almost 1 year to make it playable ))
this has been in EA for years, not comparable lmao
Just to remind you:
Eleventh Hour Games | New Partnership - News - Last Epoch Forums
This investment does many wonderful things for EHG and Last Epoch, including:
- Guaranteeing the stability of our development pipeline through the full 1.0 release of Last Epoch
- Allowing funds for required hardware, like more testing machines, and server infrastructure to support Multiplayer
- Allowing us to hire and contract industry experts and consultants for the most challenging aspects of development and live operations
- Allowing us to expand our team (weâre hiring, join us!)
- Allowing us marketing capital for the 1.0 release of the game - this means more players to share Eterra with!
- Ensuring our stability and growth as a studio for years to come
And Can we expect to get in and play on launch or will the servers melt? : r/LastEpoch (reddit.com)
Weâve scale tested for months with third parties, consultants, the help of infra providers, and our own backend team. We have the ability to scale servers quickly, have reserved a large amount of bare metal machines, and do not have a maximum spend for cloud overflow- itâs all elastic. From the extensive testing weâve done, unless we do have a really crazy turnout, we should be stable. Itâs not lost on us that many much larger companies than us have had issues at launch though⊠Weâre optimistic and if there are issues it certainly wonât be for lack of effort, spend, or ignorance to the importance of launch day.
If we do have issues I promise that weâll stay very communicative and you can be 100% certain weâll be all hands on deck working to resolve anything that comes up. We understand whatâs on the line.
I will say that this is probably the most stressing thing to the team as weâve seen games be review bombed and eviscerated when there are launch issues. I remember being frustrated when games I was excited for had launch issues in the past, but now being on the other side of it Iâve seen how much of an emotional toll it can take on a team to face hatred for something that they have tried hard to prepare for but it not be received/gone well despite best efforts. Just in general I think itâs a good thing for the gaming community to understand the impact those types of things have on development teams. Thatâs not me asking for leniency for our team, just rather an insight I feel worth sharing for gamers in general.
Another thing Iâll share because itâs interesting and something I didnât understand before being in game development (before LE) - itâs nearly never the game servers that have issues at launch as those are easy to scale as long as you have the funds and willingness to pay the server providers (typically Google or Amazon), itâs more often an issue with services like login/authentication/database rate limiting. We use Steam and other services that are battle tested at scale for these things.
But, in summary, weâve prepared heavily and have every reason to suspect weâll be in good shape come launch day. If there are issues weâll be communicative and working to address anything that comes up immediately.
Thanks all, sorry for the long post here
arent the servers suppose to be off rn?
I hear you my dear friend. Thatâs exactly what i said to a rightfully unhappy customer at my work aswell. I told him that is common to expect failure since its something that usually happens. No big deal
Hey Crybabys, Its a Game like Diablo 2 Ressurected with offline mode which works. The Multiplayer is an extra tool to get a better gaming expierience with Friends. If you use your car metaphoric. You have a car which can drive, but you have no seats for other people to drive with. So its a working game, but only for you alone. Give the Dev the Chance to get the servers stable. Take your dummys and play offline for some time. Its annoying to see so much babys who think they are Gamer If you complain about others, become a Dev. make an ARPG and do it better. If you do so, you can complain and cry about other people, who do a great Job, but have starter issues.
its ok
I do understand that the dev are under a lot of pressure, but it is always the same story for the last 15years, doesnt matter the game (BF, COD, DiabloâŠ) they should understand that if there is hype for the game they should increase the servers for the 1st week⊠is it just about being affraid to loose money? Or they can wait for a week for the game to be stable?
How about just renting servers for the launch and ensuring everything goes smoothly
Îxactly thatâs the sad part, game industry made it a norma these days. Înyway, be well and have fun
What you consider âplain stupid or just dumbâ is just me being well experienced. I have witnessed several games being launched for the past 20 years. One of them being out for years in Korea that hat server outages for days when they launched in the west - just to name one. Or other games that had long on going betas before they were launched and whatnot with the same or even worse things that happened to ppl trying to play on day 1. It just doesnt matter how long they have been out, beta or not, its a launch!!! These things happen, believe it or not!! Its a small company compared to the ones I have seen launching games. But hey, you do you being toxic and offensive with zero clue on how to deal with mishaps. XD
Thing is, I want to play with friends. Offline mode is cool but itâs not something that I bought the game for.
LOL thats crazyy
