It's funny that you mention Cogent. I've been playing STO and Champions for a couple of years and every single time I had connection problems, it was Cogent that caused it. Yet both Cryptic and PWE keep using it! At the moment I'm one pissed off lifetimer. I can't even log in from Australia and sure enough, Cogent is to…
STO is still hilariously easy to level up. I also play a certain fantasy MMO involving Rings and quests to destroy them, and have lvl 64 on my main after 3 years of play. I started a DR toon one week into the event and he's lvl 58 now, and I just dip in for doff missions morning and night with the odd run through an STF…
I can confirm that Spiral Wave Disruptors, Obelisk warp core and miscellaneous parts of the Borg rep space set also fix at Mk XII when placed in the upgrade system. Good to know that if I ever want to upgrade a bunch of stuff to Mk XIV, I can do it (if I want to forgo a week's groceries for dilithium, anyway).
Can you imagine the field day that the min/maxers would have? 40k tried something similar years ago with a 'build your own vehicle' article in White Dwarf, and literally nobody used it to make fair and balanced vehicles. The idea of a PvP optimized gunboat packing eight AP arrays and 8 AP damage boost consoles makes me…
Hey, I'm e-famous! Woot! Nice clip :D That aside I have contacted my ISP and asked to be moved to a different transpacific cable to avoid Cogentco... wait and see.
It's happening for me again. Had to leave a fleet action because of lousy lag and contstant 'server not responding'. It's been going on since last night. I've had a week or so of reasonably good service, then everything has gone pear-shaped. ISP is Telstra Cable internet (Sydney, Australia). What gives, Cryptic? By the…
It looks a lot like Cogentco has to answer some questions, most of the people that bothered to post a traceroute in the last few pages have gone across the Cogentco network. For those that have not posted a traceroute, go get WFTrace and in the command line put patchserver.crypticstudios.com, then click the 'copy as text'…
Australian player here, using Telstra Bigpond cable internet 100/25. Connection and play has been spotty since LoR dropped. Last three days or so the game has been unplayable due to 'server not responding', lag, rubberbanding, warping etc. Please see attached Ftraces: Tracing route to 208.95.185.41 (Cryptic patchserver)…
It's 8:30am Sunday where I am and I've been trying to download and install the LoR patch for Tribble for 36 hours with no success. No open beta tester rewards for me then. /sigh.
