I can't seem to log in this morning...anyone else having that issue?:confused:
I'm normally on server 1. if I play on server 2 won't I have to start a new game?
If you have problems logging in, best to wait 5 minutes and try again.
it seems like every day these servers have problems...
I STILL can't log in!!!! this is bull s**t... :mad:
I got on briefly this morning, and it was about the usually lagginess... it was only for a few minutes.
I can't seem to log onto server 2 atm.
i was in earlier this morning and it was laggy
cant get in now
I'm in, but I can't upgrade anything or build anything new due to the lag.
I think both servers are down, can't get in to either.
Server 1 is definately up, but running so laggy that it's almost unbearable.
To Phoren:
Please try and come up with a better answer than wait 5 mins and try again, sorry mate. (you have done it in a couple of posts already) Its not becoming of a forum mod to give such a lame excuse. If you dont know then dont answer the post.
I am a mod in several games so dont try and tell me to relax and other stuff... Yeah mate?
Thanks

I haven't really had the problem of logging in his morning. I was on from about 1000 EST to 1300 EST. And till about 1300-1345 I got either severe lag, or server failure to whatever. And now I'm like absolutely no response once I press log in. Except That annoying clock... I mean at least tell me the server is FUBAR. Now I don't want to say you guy are doing a terrible job. But this is a very dumb thing to go terribly wrong for this long with no response to the problem.
I was able to log in this morning, with hardly any lag, but now no response. Half an hour ago I got in, but couldn't upgrade anything, so I had to log out.
What do you mean dude, you KNOW they're doing a terrible job and so does everyone else. I have never, ever, ever seen such horrible maintenance of game servers in all my LIFE, it must be being run by a bunch of teenagers on one of their dads crappy IBM computers in CHINA.
I do think the people who created the game have done a good job. But the handling has been very poor, me personally feel I'm being scammed but that's me..And they release another server, yet can barely handle the one they previously had..-shrugs- Who knows..
i dont get why server 2 is like perfect and in tip top shape.
then server 1 is crap ever since server 2 came out....:mad:
It's now been a solid hour since I have been able to log in... so obviously waiting 5 minutes then trying again doesn't work...
I just dont' understand...I've been part of this very creative game for just under a week and every single day, minus the first day, either the server has been down or it's been lagging. Why not close a server when it gets to capacity?? Instead of overloading it till its lagging and shutting down and ruining everybody's fun??? Isn't it better to dissappoint a few prospective players than all the current ones? Maybe I'm just crazy.
I haven't been able to log in all day.
They need to pay thier ISP/Colocate provider (looks like civony is hosted by theplanet.com in Houston) for a massive upgrade in equipment and/or bandwidth because it looks like they (UMGE) seriously underestimated demand.
logged in finally and no lag at all now. much better.
good luck to everyone!
You sure do complain a lot about a game that is being given to you, at no cost. I hate the lag as much as the next guy but coming from someone who runs a few game servers it is kind of annoying having people that use your game and forum for no charge complaining 24/7 about something that is free and something that may not even be their problem. Could possibly be the host of the server they most likely rent.
Edit:
What that guy said.
thats what you get for advertising everywhere, and i mean i see the adverts for this game everywhere now, but on facebook they must of expected atleast 100k people to register.
if they can afford to advertise on somewhere like facebook, they can afford to upgrade, but mr eric lam with his 177 domains is prob enjoying the money to much.
I have a never ending problem signing into CIVONY and staying signed in. It is very frustrating :(. I wish they would fix the problem.
maybe at the simple login page where they have that message box they can simply have somthing stating if the server is up or down
I hear a lot of people talking about hardware and bandwidth. If someone else is hosting the game for them, i don't think the processor is the issue. I do think they need to purchase more bandwidth.
Any tech geeks want to toss out some facts and figures?
In the announcment sectio of this forum it states that they are "resetting the servers". Does this mean everything i have bult to this point will be lost in a roll back?
Im pretty sure that resetting the servers definitely isn't a roll back, just a way to fix lag i guess.

That's the beauty of the intertubez. If you don't like the way this game is run, you can go play one of the other 1000s of other out there like it.
If you've never, ever, ever seen such horrible maintenance of game servers in all your life, you haven't played many new games. It's pretty much par for the course. Welcome to software game development.
Now go kick a baby. You'll feel better.
Well the one thing that I have gained from my experiences here on Civony is a serious hatred for clocks. After staring at those d*mn little hands spinning mockingly at me for hours on ends I went on a rampage and destroyed every time keeping device in my home.
Now if you will excuse me I need to go seek therapy. I just hope I get there on time...
ahah lol generic, at least we know that it means the servers are down :)
For some advice on your mental state, stay away from the clocks for some time.
