    This is what happens when you run 3 mmos and share servers for them.

    Yeah and PWE paid over 50 million for cryptic studios so it's not like they don't have the money for it lol

    Looks like the web site server is getting ready to bite the dust. Refreshes are getting longer.

    100 my *** the devs has said to us on the forumites channel how it works on CO and STO its a partitioned thingy and it seems NW shares the same thing :P

    Just ask Gentle Man Crush he's the one that said.

    In all likelihood there are multiple blade servers and some are shared. For example a cluster of servers that accomodate the chat system for multiple games, a cluster for mail, etc. Then each game will have its own clusters of servers. In all likelihood a blade server design.

    Just because you think you know how server architecture works because you read a quote about a "partition thingy" means nothing.

    $5 says it was the guy who crashed the Forsaken World servers because he was "sebestimated".

    Eh, game doesn't seem to be worth it anyway. Its basically unplayable, due to 175ms ping and twitch skills required. You cant block attacks as the guardian for instance. You put your shield up, they hit you, you take dmg through your shield. Incredibly annoying.

    Obviously it's your connection not the server.. I always use my block and it always blocks when I want it to block, no lag when I block.

    Well, If the game didnt have cross friends lists and cross mail i might say it didnt share common servers... but they do share mail, friends list and even custom chat channels. The servers are connected in one way or another so Cryptic can save a lot of cash.

    Being "connected" and all running on a single server as the OP was claiming are very different things. Yes they all likely share some architecture. That does not mean there are not at least dozens of physical servers that make up the architecture. Setting up a datacenter costs more than a few dollars it only makes sense they would want to share some components in the infrastructure. Cannot exactly expect 24/7 guaranteed uptime on a F2P game.... heck you cannot reasonably expect it on a subscription model.

    The message gave the time ZONE with the time, it does not matter at all where you live...unless you are incapable of looking at a time with a time zone and converting it correctly to your own, in which case you should use a web site that does it for you.

    Yes, but I CAN expect the game I'm playing to not be affected by one I'm not playing.

    Trying to defend anything like this is pure idiocy.

    STO and Champions Online should NOT be affected when NWO goes down.

    Call it one server, or 300 linked together. I really couldn't give a ****. One going down should NOT take down the other two.

    If there had never been a COH there would never have been a CO. :cool:

    Hey I'm just saying what I heard from some of the blokes that made these games there was a time when they used to talk to their players. Then PW took over and it all changed.

    If I knew how these things worked I'd be phoning them up telling them how to fix it then asking for my free sparkle spider :P

    **** things too interconnected its just madness they havent fixed it yet. It used to happen all the time with just Champs and Trek :I
