    Ah well, better than not being about to play from 2pm to 6pm every Tuesday afternoon. That's primetime for me!

    Also the recent patch is screwing things up stateside.

    Yeah things have got worse for me since the patch. Any place that has high numbers of people now waits a few seconds before letting them appear. That didn't happen before.

    Yeah, I'm getting that too. I think thats their method of controlling lag.
    Its usually not a problem but it is when there is a raid.


  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    I was in Deadwood yesterday when Stitch took his regular walk into the town to flatten it. About 30 players responded and eventually nailed him but the lag was insane. 4 seconds latency!
    I'd hate to see what a really big raid was like!

    Its horrifically bad. Dont expect to enjoy pvp raiding unless they really streamline some of the code.

    Why dont they inform players of lengthy server downtime?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,217 ✭✭✭Matthewthebig


    They do they mention on the site that the server goes down for maintenence every week!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,148 ✭✭✭Ronan|Raven


    GAH! wish the servers would come back up im getting the shakes here..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,838 ✭✭✭DapperGent


    67%. :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,077 ✭✭✭joe.


    By the look of things when that reaches 100% you still won't get to play. Were supposed to be back up at 10 am. This is bad

    It was on the left of the login screen for several hours. And the servers ALWAYS go down from 7am - 11am Gmt-1, every friday without fail.

    Some servers are back up now. I'm sure they'll be all up in the next few minutes :)


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 4,569 Mod ✭✭✭✭Ivan


    I'm reliably informed that Bladefist is back up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,838 ✭✭✭DapperGent


    80%. :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,788 ✭✭✭Vikings


    All servers are back up now. Thanks for the direct link to the patch, nothing worse than 2kb/s.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,327 ✭✭✭NeoSlicerZ

    Yes it hsould still work Data, my CTmod still works the best, just make sure you turn off the version checker thing in the addon's menu.

    No, it's broken. Grab the latest file from here. I'm switching to a different mod, but one really nice thing in the latest cosmo is the sky addon which allows you to see your groupmates quests and even what quests you have in common. I'll have to see if I can find that plugin seperately, very handy.
