This is becoming a thing...maybe always has been a thing but it sure seems a lot more frequent lately. Even when it isn't the entire server, I have been seeing a lot of disconnects that affect everyone in any given particular locale...12, 15, 20 people at a time. So before anyone starts with the "It's your computer" argument--it isn't.
Sure would love some input or feedback from Cryptic staff on this.

Who needs meteorologists when you have Rheumatoid Arthritis, am I right?

Cryptic's data center is in the Boston area, which got another blizzard today. They were saying on the national news this morning that today's storm had high enough wind speeds to be effectively a snow hurricane. I just did a traceroute, and it still gets a little spiky on the last few Boston cogentco.com hops.

They all thought I was out of the game....But I'm holding all the lockboxes now..

That hasn't got a darn thing to do with the weather where Cogentco's involved. Cogentco throttles bandwidth all the time, ESPECIALLY in Boston. I have done multiple, multiple traceroutes over the last year since the SNR's and disconnects seemed to worsen, and almost invariably the pings go through the roof at the Cogentco Boston location every time. We can thank our government for allowing it in their ever-burgeoning search to tax the internet and make consumers pay extra for the 'privilege' of using more bandwidth in places like MMO's.
But the issue where multiple people all get DC'd simultaneously seems to be a Cryptic problem, not a Cogentco problem. My other MMO's don't do that. Certainly not as frequently, not even close. Whether this is related to the persistent memory leak that has plagued so many players in recent weeks is up for debate, but either way, it really needs a closer look and possibly some maintenance.

I don't get it - usually it's STO that's dropping my connection, not CO. This week, though, STO's been pretty well steady aside from a little minor rubberbanding, while CO's been rocky as all get-out.

if it's any consolation, STO & Nevermind are on the same server and they get dc'd at the same time.

My super cool CC build and how to use it.
Yeah. I'm currently looking out the window at a 6 foot high, 15 wide, 60 foot long wall of snow in our parking lot. The parking lot across the street is up to 12 feet. They've been bringing in dump trucks to start pulling it out.
It's a lot of snow.
It's funny watching my dogs try to make their way through it though... golden retrievers are just so motivated when it comes to fetching a ball o3o

Tonight, 9:22 PM EST, massive server disconnect. I was in the Loading screen after character select when I got a SNR, then I watched as person after person on my Friends list "Logged Off" all at once. In other words, all simultaneously DC'd.
This is the second thread I've put up discussing this ever-increasing issue, and lo and behold, STILL not a peep from Cryptic here. Considering this obviously happens to two other games besides CO all at the same time...now happening every day...you'd THINK they would have a vested interest in damage control and public relations....
