    Now to see if I truly Jinxed this by saying second or more emergency maintenance yesterday hehe, we'll see after this if that comes true!

    But again, I still know from experience how it is with my own paws in game server assistance, you just cannot replicate all situations and factors in a test environment or test server, to find all possible flaws, you just have to push an update to the main server environment and hope for the best and quickly find and resolve bugs found there. And even if it looks like server load is to blame, there can be far more than just server load itself factoring in problems.

    Well, just saying, when in QA, you realize that problems are often not what the players perceive them to be, like when a certain amount of players got into the server where I'm at, it often crashed, but it was not because the server couldn't handle it, it was more than capable, but a single line of code was off that crashed if the map concluded with a certain number of players present.

    Or like another bug that only happened if two projectiles of a certain type met midair and crashed the server lol. Players assumed the crash was overload, but no it was not, just number of players made it more likely to happen. Small examples for a small game I deal with, but principle is the same in larger scale and potentially far less obvious than these examples. Certain things just cannot always be caught in beta testing.

    Same for me, it's the mass whining that's slowing it down.

    No, really. The huge amount of people logging onto the forums to say the servers are down, or whine about entitlement.

    they didn't crash it the first time; cryptic deliberately shut it down

    so if it survived the first stampede, it'll survive the second :P

    it might not have been officially down at first, but it was down.

    Well, I was in for a few mins, but game crashed when I recalled my MVAE sections! Then got stuck in the queue which is jammed again. I give up for now, maybe a few hours later when even less people will be on I'll try again. Sigh, back to my other work then.
