a) they're too cheap to buy servers that can handle the load,
b) they can't code and there's an errors that consuming resources, causing the bandwidth leak, or
c) everything is working as intended?
Ooh, ooh, I know this one!! It must be...C! :cool:
I was online just before and shortly after the "supplemental maintenance" overnight, and it appeared that the problems got worse, rather than better. The Academy "Party" was nearly unplayable, with party crashers being duplicated on top of each other, rubberbanding of NPC's as well as players, etc. Changing map instances did no good, because there were only 5 or 6 instances available, all of which had 24-40 players each.
Did no one at Cryptic think that there would be a fresh influx of players for the hyped Anniversary, and increase server capacity accordingly??
And to think I was just about to open my wallet again...

I just got on and major rubber banding especially in ESD and academy. Also I tried the minigame and it ended less than 2 seconds after I clicked start. No chance to actually play it.

i did say not as bad in 'SOME' locations, i havent been to every location obviously.
When I think about everything we've been through together,
maybe it's not the destination that matters, maybe it's the journey,
and if that journey takes a little longer,
so we can do something we all believe in,
I can't think of any place I'd rather be or any people I'd rather be with.

They are waiting for it to fix itself, instead of them fixing it.
