Australian Players ONLY 11-23-2012 Diagnostic Testing

Play button worked approximately 15-20 seconds after pressing it. Prior to tonight's downtime it would only take 1-2 seconds. Likely a side-effect of the large number of logins that Briggs would currently be experiencing.

Carry on.

Took 40 seconds to get in, using iprimus and joined at about 6:26 UTC +10 brisbane time.

The play button doesnt work 95% of the time.
Also if I alt+tab while the game is launching then I get a G error, aka G12.

I am using Telstra internet. Cable.

1) Estimated time - 1 press - CONNECTED (est 2-5 seconds)
2) Service provider - Telstra (bigpond)
3) The time 6:29pm QLD time

Seems to be working fine on second attempt. ( except my lightning fell into the void when spawning it...) Fantastic effort.
About 8 seconds from play to load screen

press play 4 times waite about 5 seconds between each attempt then it goes back to desktop, game worked fine every other time ive used it way to go.

You should be able to get in, the play button will take a bit, we tried here and it took 2 minutes (Everyone is flooding into the server right now). I see the login queue, and it's going down quickly, so it should stabilize in just a moment.

logged out / closed client - 6:34pm - same result 2-5 seconds

Still cannot join its been like this for days, what a effin joke. what else do you expect for Free to play. and what pathetic POS ISP have you chosen to host your servers? optus? adam? if its anyone else but telstra then this will be typical of the QUALITY of server we will get absolute crap. i think the PS2 people need to do some damn homework on how crap our internet is here and that any isp is a joke.

1 second and I'm in.

got disconnected again

disconnected again...

getting tired now.

it lets you play for like 5 mins then disconnect?

I hate you...

Mine was loading fine, just play button wasnt working. Validated... Now i've gotta download 3gb again :/

Shot down 4 TR mozzies and was on the tail of a 5th when the DC struck again.

Good thing I certed into vehicle acq reduction...

When it says "you have been disconnected from the server" i wish that i didnt exit the game, just put you back into main menu.

And again! lol

Love your camo btw. May have to get some.

can get in but keep getting disconnected wtf?

Why is everyone always on Esamir?

I get into the game which takes about 10 secs from when I hit the PLAY button then I seem to play for about a min before it disconnects me.
