    All worlds will be taken offline at 6AM PT on Wednesday, September 4, 2024 due to the Labor Day holiday on Monday, September 2, 2024. This downtime is to prepare for future content. Downtime is expected to last 5 hours.


    EDIT @ 10:33a.m. PDT:
    Maintenance for USPS will be extended for approximately 3 hours!

    You mean so future content doesn't have lag spikes that can sometimes cause our dmg out to be server sided which is happening very often? Or could this be something along the lines of zero testing on the test server and straight to live server. Maybe next gen allows you guys to test new tools and make the process much easier on the developers testing the content themselves meaning less time for test server or none at all. Wouldn't that be something wild

    Test was supposed to come back on Tuesday but got delayed. It's now supposed to come back on Friday.

    Honestly it's not like much bug fixing gets done once pushed to test anyway. The current episode has been out for months and there are still bugs.

    Due to the rapid schedule pace and lack of staff/up to speed staff I'm fairly sure the team is just busy trying to push out the next episode and STU in time so everything is rushed.

    It's a actually wild the lag issues have been present for so long. Starting to wonder if they downsized the server infrastructure and that's the real "bug" and why it hasn't been fixed.

    With Xbox soon to have their next gen update I am pretty sure they are able to use new tools to Fast Track development as well as testing. I would like to say I'm pretty hopeful that we will have less bugs and less development time to complete projects as well as testing if none at all. That is the ultimate goal with NextGen being able to use better tools and systems

    If I meant something more than what was posted, it would have been posted. Take my posted words at face value as that is how they are meant.

    Thanks!

    When y’all gone fix the forums from double posting and times where you can’t even enter the forums at all with excessively 1 minute long searches?

    The forum is obviously run on one hamster wheel from the looks of it on a modem from dial up in 1995 most likely. :D

    I'm in favor of removing the Stat Clamp. I'm a PS player who left the game years ago and recently returned on PC. The game hooked me again like it did years ago, but some feats are impossible with the Stat Clamp, e.g., Flashback Duo 8 min + cutscenes. It's impossible.

    How nice. Its kinda bonus - future content and present bugs. Bugs like glitched chat, where after some time you cant see or type in chat. This game is awesome, it have all.
    i will compare this game to car - when you ignore 1 issue after another, soon or later you wont have car, only junk....and bugged chat is BIG issue.

    So, servers are down this morning, for an emergency fix. Servers are down tomorrow, for 5 hours. After reset is my time to grind through my work well, so 2 days I won't get to play this week. It seems like daily reset is getting messier and messier.

    It would be funny if they finally have double augment xp and double artifact xp, and the lag immediately stops because the servers can't handle all the stored exobytes and nth metal. We're approaching 3 times longer than they've ever gone with people saving. Adding in all the resurgence capsules and the extra space needed definitely seems to be the thing that made the lag so much worse again.

    I think if the development team is smart they would realize that artifacts help the clamp extremely and without the double artifact weeks you have a player base that isn't getting stronger fast enough. The developers have to remember that after 3 artifacts cuz that's as many slots as we have yes we can art swap, but let's just say 3 artifact slots. Thats gonna effect the player retention. Once the player has 3 artifacts in those slots there is going to be less and less player retention with that system. this is why they came out with allies and you can already tell the player retention on allies is over. Perhaps they've decided on a new Direction for artifacts and the leveling system this could very well be why we haven't gotten two times artifacts. I strongly believe they realize that the artifact system needs to be relaunched it isn't even a matter of it needs to!! it has to!!! there are too many exploits with it. It's not even funny anymore watching people swap artifacts and destroying people who are Max CR while they are 14 combat rating levels lower. We went from cr differential to artifact swapping artifact swapping has given the developer team a very bad reputation it is not good for population not one bit
