Posted by Cipher,

Hey all,   Unfortunately this one is a bit out of our control. At around 1 AM UTC, we started experiencing severe packet loss and fluctuating latency across the private network (vRack) that our servers use to communicate. We've since put a support ticket in with OVH and have attempted to call anyone we could get ahold of at OVH to have this issue investigated. Bad news is, though, their automated response system is currently rejecting calls to all departments (incl. incident & outage

This game has actually been up and been a lot more stable than the Before Times, or any other game out there.

 

Anyhoo, "There was a problem detected in the game database system.  Please post a bug report on the forums."

 

This is a forum, I'm sure this is the 1,182rd such report 😎

By the way, what is severe packet loss? (or did they say leakage?)

 

That's when someone bumps the server rack and all of the Internets spill out.

Get busy living... or get busy dying.  That's goddamn right.

It's when I'm making Top Ramen and can't find the flavor packet.

Switching back and forth from keeping up here and reading "Heroes in Crisis" on dcuniverseinfinite.com on another tab.. Good stuff. Love having a gazillion comics to choose from at any given time to read. 🙂

Can only imagine the pure chaos the NPC's are spreading accross paragon whilst all the heroes are gone!

 

They should make an event where the NPC's try taking over the world due to the lack of heroes in game. It'd be funny to come back and see their surprise and sorrow once they realize the heroes were just off world fighting their cravings to fight villainy, and in some cases the so called "Justice Enforcers".

their automated response system is currently rejecting calls to all departments (incl. incident & outage reporting, technical support, and account & billing), so we're unable to obtain any more information at this time.

 

 

 

Has to be a Zombie attack. Maybe the homecoming team let off to many special zombie events at one time and now all help is drooling walking around in circles looking at the flashing lights...... and manwiching on their co-workers.....

I know for a fact a Rikti invasion will give up and go away even with 0 heroes there defending.

 

Sad.

Sad.

Can you imagine all the giant monsters in the game congregating in Atlas Park awaiting our arrival?

The ensuing carnage would be GLORIOUS!

Just checked again.

Same message.

If someone posts a reply quoting me and I don't reply, they may be on ignore.

(It seems I'm involved with so much at this point that I may not be able to easily retrieve access to all the notifications)

Some players know that I have them on ignore and are likely to make posts knowing that is the case.

But the fact that I have them on ignore won't stop some of them from bullying and harassing people, because some of them love to do it. There is a group that have banded together to target forum posters they don't like. They think that this behavior is acceptable.

Ignore (in the forums) and /ignore (in-game) are tools to improve your gaming experience. Don't feel bad about using them.
