The servers are nothing to do with Pro7. Posting on their forums would achieve nothing. SoE run the servers (and they have said so quite explicitly), when the servers fudge up (and this sure as hell is a server issue) we let them know. Moreover lots of us on Miller are old Ps1ers such that we have our accounts with SoE. We pay them our money and we are not Pro7 customers.
just wanted to ask about that. if the EU servers were operated by pro7 and not SOE... oh dear lord, then we're all doomed.
It's getting kinda pathetic.. http://forums.station.sony.com/ps2/...6/&q=Miller&o=date&c[title_only]=1&c[node]=29
I think I worked it out though.. a lot of EU PS1 vets were looking forward to getting reunited and chose Miller as the server. So SOE obviously thought we'd like to be reunited with that most famous of PS1 vets; the Werner server.
Woodman is the same. Grenades don't explode, there's hundreds lying around on the ground. Vehicle wreckage doesn't disappear. Players can spawn on deployed sundy wrecks too. Drop pods aren't disapearing either. The map is so cluttered.
I don't even give a **** about pro7sat, I went to the SOE website to make an account and pay for alpha squad, it's also where I downloaded the release client. So really, not my problem. I'll just go play summat else. And yeah, woodman is completely knackered.
Harry the Werner hamster surely? Poor lil' bleeder, powering the server for all those years and you know what I heard he didn't even get a decent pension package out of them when they closed Werner down.
ok I got killed 3 times by tanks which were supposed to be exploded and still there as wreck - hell not even enemy red vehicle name is is written above, just a wreck...which is moving and shooting (new texture bug). One of them was near a sunderer of ours and had a bit of fun firing on peeps spawning there. Launch pods after landing still there, killing enemy aircrafts with antiair turrets on base/tower doesn't give XP, not even 1 So I guess it's time for a server reset (and not like usual in the heat of epic battles where you get disconnected with the pleasent info : SERVER IS NOT DISPONIBLE). At least now it's useful ?
They actually put him in a blender and made Harry Drinks :/ Anyway, We had this crap on miller on Indar yesterday. Got reported, got looked into. Guess they did something, but it just shifted the problem to Esamir.
It is worse now than an hour ago. Probably heading towards server crash due to all grenades, drop pods and wreckages littering the map. FoF tags are no longer working on long distances, lots of friendly fire from tanks / libs. Vehicle kills are not registering, ESFs can limp back to base at 0% but cannot be repaired or re-entered.
Their excuse appears to be that is because it's 'heavy load' - well that's all right then - how dare we expect a company to host servers suitable for the task they are required to do!! What were we thinking!!
What are you talking about? Millers problem come from heavy load it seems yes, but SOE never mentioned that as an excuse. They know about the issues and are working on it. Nothing else they can do really.
