ok i can get past the log in issue now, but its telling me all the servers are locked.. Anyone know when they will be unlocked or what is going on with that? anyone in the game or no? Very confused on this
Finally got the login servers working.....how about bringing up those freshly maintained servers now!!
It says a problem logging in... we are all logged in now, they are just locked... so what is the REAL issue? how can this game generate revenue when things like this are commonplace?
The servers were locked so that we could fix today's issues; generally, even if login servers come back up, if we've let players know things are down you shouldn't expect the game to be back up and running before we give an "all clear." In this case, we've still been working to resolve problems. We're looking to get things back up shortly, and will be closely monitoring stability once that happens.
I think they should just do full day or multi-day patches tho to save us from believing estimates each time. It is like Lucy pulling the ball when Charlie Brown tries for the kick, we believe it every time. The truth is that it is not economically feasable for a large A team of IT professionals to drop kick these patches. It's probably just a few guys, and they are probably just out of adolescence, and definitely in OT and tired by now. That's why I say, they should just make patches a minimum of a full day, if not several days, so we can change plans, not get hot or irritated. The problem is not the time, it is thinking that it almost IS time. I can go weeks, just don't make me go weeks in front of the computer checking every hour.
I suggested earlier in another post maybe have in opt in SMS that will notify players when servers are back up so we don't have to seek out the information constantly. This would also be a benefit for the company also I would think..
Servers are coming back up now - please let us know if you continue to experience login issues. As I mentioned previously, we'll be monitoring stability closely to ensure that things are looking good.
Servers all say up . . . but unknown errors occur when trying to play/access one. Further, and it boots to the login screen, which still doesn't work quite right. I'll give it a few minutes, but it sure seems the same as earlier. p.s. It appears some additional files/updates were added to the patcher process, but it still doesn't seem to work after re-patching.
