Nostromo21 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 And yet another queue, just wanted to have a quick bash (on Excelsior) before lunch, and all you swarming yanks are overloading the server in your Sat night prime-time, bleh. If I transfer my current main to Indomitable, can I then transfer it back once the devs get this under control, or the traffic dies down again??? Surely there's a better way to load-balance virtual servers via instances and whatnot, than having hard-coded server architecture with hard player limits in 2024... 1 Game over man, game over!

And no, not with the way Cryptic Studios designed the character database. They didn't believe in using SQL for MMORPGs. Thus, here we are. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xalon Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Now it logged me out while playing. Logging back in is a pain. They need to have MORE MAPS per zone. Split up the players otherwise it'll be like this every night 😕 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insidia Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Has anyone tried exiting the queue then clicking the server again? I've done this every single time since the login issue began, and without fail it pops me into my character selection screen like normal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ael Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 I play on Excelsior and I've yet to get caught in a queue. I can log in without a problem. Meanwhile, my partner logs in a minute later and ends up in something like 20/80. Well, ladies first and all that, I guess! 😂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As other people have warned, just make sure to create a 'throwaway' character with the same name on the server you leave. Otherwise when you do want to come back you might find the name taken. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nostromo21 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 And it's always 20-40 in prime time. How hard can it be to up a server from 2000 users let's say, but another 50 or so...? 8-/ 1 Game over man, game over! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreah Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Look at all the servers that aren't bumping into the concurrency cap! Iirc, you get five transfers per week, and it would be a good idea to have a character or two on the lower population severs which also get larger experience buffs. Great people on those too, and no trouble finding teams either with them peaking over 500 each whenever Excelsior is in a queue. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nostromo21 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Excuse me Mr Devs, can we please have an Indomitable for down under, so we too can have 10 players in peak hour and no AH economy, but really low pings? We love a challenge here ya know! ;) Seriously, if you are using Azure or AWS hosting, we have those in Aus - unlike those NZ sheep who are still doing 80s data centre hosting!

The Auction House is cross server - you can post an enhancement on Excelsior and a player on Indomitable can buy it. The lag free experience is wonderful though! 2 1 I lead weekly Indom Badge Runs / A newer giant monster guide by Glacier Peak / A tour of Pocket D easter eggs! / Arena All-Star Accolade Guide!
