Nah in this day and age the inability to maintain 5 9's of uptime is a 3rd world problem. Most first world companies don't have these problems now days.
-
/facepalm For starters.. these games aren't a single server. It's a farm or servers. Login servers, comm servers, database servers, application servers, reporting servers, security/monitoring servers, backup servers, etc.... Even a cheapskate like Cyptic couldn't get by with a single server. There was no "wrong button…

How do you get into this channel? I've had several people tell me this but when I try to join it says I don't have permission.
-
Yup it's a sad what the newer younger generation of gamers bring to the table. You're looking at the results of the first generation to grow up with a smartphone in their hand.. Quite a pleasant bunch aren't they?
-
The difference is in WoW you can make up the GS difference if you've been away. I left WoW for 3 years and went back 3 months before WoD dropped... I was able to gear up and get a Garrosh kill on one toon before the achievement went away and a second toon by the time WoD had dropped. Honestly. I was quite impressed with…
-
Furthermore, at what point do you say the damage the votekick system is doing to the innocents is far greater than the originally intended legitimate need for a votekick system? If the fallout to innocents from discipline exceeds the harm caused by the act warranting the discipline in the first place - at what point do you…

Until the problem goes away it will continue to get beat to death and this game will continue to hemorrhage new players. I'd be curious for PWE to post the average lifespan of a new player in this game... I doubt it's very long at all... just long enough to get to max level and discover endgame in Neverwinter is filled…
-
How level will the playing field be after raising the level cap 10 levels? I realize these 20k+ GS people will still have their high-level enchants and relics and etc.... but do you think the new metric will be normalized enough as people first hit 70 to make this less of a problem, at least for a few months?
-
Yea I'm doing all the campaigns I can currently in parallel as well as WoD. I'm hoping I can get to 16k because it seems you can somewhat find groups at 16k.. at least I see a lot of spam in LFG with 16k as the minimum.
-
Well I was hoping a new system will at least "get my foot in the door" and then hopefully avoid the dreaded vote kick by knowing and playing my class well. Right now you don't even get a fighting chance.
-
I was having the queue drop issues at release and since release I'm now on a new high-end rig in a new house with very good internet connection. 100MB down and 10MB up with very good latency to just about anywhere. I ripped down 4.5GB of software form oracle's website this morning in no time flat. If this was a network…
-
Well my latency is low and it would have to be a lot more than a single packet dropped for something like this. This happens to me 75% of the time. ugh.. this game is so frustrating.
-
It's not popping. I'm just magically getting removed.. Believe me... I pay *very* close attention because very irritating doing nothing but waiting and waiting and waiting for queues.
-
Why would they move this? Seems kinda shady to me. To me this is EXACTLY the type of post I wanna see when perusing the general discussion forums for a game. /facepalm
-
Ok I keep hearing about artifacts but where/how do I get them. I only have the basic one you get when leveling up to 60. Thx
-
Well if the average player now days wasn't a socially challenged, self-entitled, self-centered brat using the queues would be awesome.... BUT.... You gotta deal with the ADHD tool that's speed running thru the dungeon worrying about the useless damage report that is never accurate because said idiot is running ahead of the…
-
I can't do anything in game. I don't see /lfg or /zone I can't even /say. Edit. So a moderator is collating these threads into one but not maintaining any order or anything resembling logical discussion. Why bother? Why not just delete them? Brilliant. Mensa candidates. (I guess I'm not surprised)
-
Ugh don't tell me this.. I'm just about to hit 60 and nothing that turns me off quicker and forces me to other games thansitting around waiting and waiting and waiting to run content. It's even worse in this game because you can't join local groups while in queue (*cough* *cough* dragons, etc...) because you lose your…
-
Cool thx for the info.. I kinda figured after accumulating 200 of these by the time I was 40 that they weren't gonna be worth the money. I don't even bother to pick them up anymore unless they are right at my feet. Already have a level 3 spider mount from the $150 pack I bought at release so I'm set with a mount.. and…
-
Sorry, I've been away since not long after release... What is RP?
-
Are you really reading an update to a thread from 2 years ago and then posting in it but not providing anything productive to the original thread? Now that seems silly.
-
Ummm linux nvidia drivers are easy to install but in no way what-so-ever are they are par with windows.. Not even close. Never do understand these "can this run on linux" threads. I've been using linux since kernel 0.97. It's all I run on my workstation at work. It's all I run on my laptop. My workstation at home is a…
-
Well that has not been my problem a single time. It's always at the very beginning of the dungeon and there are always 1-2 people disconnected. Sometimes there is 1 other party member loaded into the instance with me and after 10 minutes of waiting and trying to vote kick the DC'd players we give up. Not a single time have…
-
Yea that's all I did in WoW.. If I got a bad pvp group or a dungeon failgroup or a group with some socially challenged tool, I'd just drop and if I had nothing else to do on that toon at that moment (farming, daily's, etc..) I'd just log one of my other 2 main characters. Never once did a penalty affect me at all.
-
fail. epic. /facepalm
-
Made sense to me... it wasn't really a mensa-level brain buster to figure out what he meant. Check that baggage at the door... Correcting spelling and grammar mistakes in a multi-national forum is childish and immature and makes you look like a troll.
-
I just moved on.. I'm the biggest D&D buff but I just couldn't get past cryptic's greediness and shady business practices.. or there ability to release tested, exploit-free content. This game was doomed 1 month into the last open beta with all the exploits. That and the fact that after shelling out $200 bones I still had…
-
I was but then even got burned out doing that and eventually uninstalled the game to make room on my SSD's for games that don't nickel and dime me. I still come back here every now and then praying that a miracle has somehow saved this game but only find humor and the same misery and problems as there were at launch...
-
Haha man haven't played this game in weeks so funny to come back here and still see the some ole problems, same ole misery, same old Cryptic/PWE. So how many people are left in this game now? (or better put, how many parent's haven't been keeping a keen eye on their credit card statements)
