this thread is a week old now, and the lag is still persisting.
"06-25-2011 New Age I Server Opening June 26th!"
Your putting out new servers, and still haven't even fixed ours. Come on, this is ridiculous
I just wanna start by saying how extremly dissapointed i am at the moment with Evony admins.It's been 5 weeks of continuous lag , server shut downs and just basic inability to play.Not to talk about the incompetence of Evony staff that carry on keeping us in the dark about anything that happens and insulting us with stupid compensation packages.I just cancelled my auto cents and after almost 2 years of playing and enjoying this game, i just gave up on it.It's been extremly hard for me to reset my account because i cannot carry on with this stupidity.Thank you very much Evony staff, you just managed to make me quit :(
And one other thing , the survey you sent to my email adress to take part in and evaluate your customer service is another insult.Basicly you're taking the p..s after all our complains , you come up with that.Could you at least put an answer there where i could say, instead of your service beeing unsatisfactory, that is absolutly dog turd.At least give me that satisfaction
Still cant login 75 percent of the time and when I am able to login it takes over a minute just to get a message posted in AC. Complete joke. Think they just need to take the servers off line until something is done about it.
same here over 2 years an countless dollars spent its coming to a sad end.
i will miss all the friends have made since began on 93. theres just no way to play we have all endured this latest round of blunders, but it just never ends.
right now server is still lagged out as it has been for over a year now.
look evony those 2 among the best players an they are or have reset an quit.
how much does ur pocket have left before you take notice?
The title page says it all!!!!!.
My wife has her acct in holiday soly DUE TO THE LAG!!!!!
Im doing the same spending money just so i dont loose all i have gained.!!
I suggest every player stops spending so u guys mite get something done!!
Weeks of this is enough!!!
Farmtown now seems a better option.
:mad:
The lag is still here and worse than ever. Even to type something on alliance chat takes 2 minutes. We got 100 cents :cheer: so we can holiday for 10 days..
Doesn't look like evony cares at all.. well, people are quitting, a lot already did and others will do it too. We are not talking about a few days lag, more like weeks, months. Whatever you did to try to fix it, it didn't work. Lag got worse. And sure we don't even deserve half upkeep. :(
lol killer, How come I aint suffering this lag as bad as u all are... I manage to log in fine just clicking on valleys and npcs are a bit sluggish
Im just gonna make a post cause its what I do
So I run evony on a laptop with a wifi connection. I realize WiFi is not always as fast as a direct link connection. I do not have cable option at my house so I run DSL which is still fairly fast.
My computer stats are as follows
ASUS Notebook G73jh Series
Installed Memory (RAM) 6.00 GB
System Type: 64-bit Operating System
Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU Q 720 @1.60GHz
This is an Octacore processor, Not the fastest gaming platform out there but not to shabby either, I run StarCraft2 with absolutly no lag whatsoever, as well as a myriad of other games not the least of which being call of duty 4.
The fact that I can not move my mouse across my screen when I log into SS57 which is a no minimal motion browser based game tells me a few things.
1. Its not my platform
2. Its not my modem
3. Its not my cookies or temp files as they are deleted automatically every hour
4. It is Evony
We as players understand and deal with alot from you. While this game may have been started to launder money or whatever other nefarious reasons that the chinese press want to supress, it has become an actual community of dedicated gamers who spend real money. There is no way possible that you have not taken in enough money to overhaul your entire hardware capabilty and upgrade the required parts to meet the demands that your community has placed on you.
Olric
ohhh, I'm going to say something very weird..
I AGREE WITH OLRIC. :D
(on this matter ^^)
i feel so loved
Hey Olric, can i stop back in and get some more food without ya trucin this time m8.
It gets worse the longer I use it
Btw evony, we have to follow your Terms and conditions plz follow it to

I completely understand:cool: this but this is what I dnt get:dizzy:
THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED,
How long has everyone been suffering from this lag? If it's two weeks:soapbox:(even though its longer) then this problem should have been fixed:duh:
"OR THAT THE GAME OR THE SERVICE ARE FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS." I beginning to wonder if theses glitches are caused by harmful components:soapbox:
Couldnt agree more, nice rhyme btw
Soooo tired of this... I would like 10 cents a day until you fix it. Or all my money back... errr, scratch that. i want both! Even when i manage to log in, the game is unplayable.
fix it, please. Or at least kick off sportman. thanks.
lmao :rofl:
so half server got booted again and most of them can't log in back. Wonder how long will it last this time? (and yes we cleared our cache, downloaded the newest browser, flash and our PCs / notebooks are just fine)
Is the server down? Keep getting network error blah blah blah .. Cleared cache all that... whats up?
Finally got in .. lag is terrible as usual .. and they expect us to play like this .. TY EVONY! Least give is free upkeep till you fix the lag .. can barely farm.
So this delightful thread has been going for 15 days now. Word of advise... Keep it up a little longer... you'll fix your server lag problem... when your players give up - weather it be just shut down their connex and never login, reset and/or leave because of just pure frustration.
Can you (the evony staff and admins) please gives us yet another update as to whiskey tango foxtrot is going on with SS57 and what you're doing to resolve the lag issue that only seem to be getting WORSE? Last evening the server was unconnectable for 30-45 minutes for a whole lot of folks after basically everyone that i know and play with was booted. The lag has been so horrendous at times since then that even the little spiny lag clock has started to lag. You cant even have a coherent conversation in alliance chat when your messages take MINUTES to post in the chat window.
I for one am getting severely frustrated with the lag... i've managed to be able to function enough to farm, but we sure cant actually try to have a serious battle with lag like this. My reds probably want to thank you as i haven't made a serious go at a NON-npc city in over 2 weeks. Evony is a PvP WARGAME... i come here to fight PLAYER accounts.
As one of my alliance mates said last night 'its bad when you have to get a stopwatch out, time the lag, and try to time the launch of your waves based on that' (that's a paraphrase, sorry if i didn't get the wording right... but the spirit is there)
The quality if game-play for us here on SS57 has gone to a fecal matter content beyond bear. I come here to fight other players and while farming is a necessary evil.. If i(and your other players) wanted to play a farming only game... we can find those over on facebook.
Gee.. i speaking of farmville.. i wonder if their servers have lag issues like this? I mean.. they have millions of players too, and its a free game like evony... based off a website that has a user population base that makes evony look like a tiny little village of 50 ppl in the middle of the amazon basin. Maybe ya'll should hop over and poke mark's Server Admin Team and ask for some help :rofl:
So lets hear it staff and admin.. what news do you have for us as to a resolution of our server issues?
Do you mind evony I'm conversating with someone via mail and this lag isn't helping at all. :mad:
Hi,
Are any Evony staff monitoring this thread any longer?
It has been a while since there has been any official feedback regarding the progress with attempts at fixing the latency issues plaguing server SS57.
A quick question: There is a thread under Customer Service by Thantium and Dawnseeker talking about server 150 having hit its capacity, thereby resulting in increased latency. Is it possible SS57 has exceeded its capacity, and whatever fix was made to server 150 needs to be done to SS57, perhaps at a larger scale?
Furthermore, would it be possible for an official thread to be opened under Customer Service where Evony can announce on a daily basis how well the process of fixing the problems experienced on server SS57 is going? Once the server is working adequately, that thread can obviously be closed.
I look forward to a formal response.
Regards,
ObelixMMIX
suspend me again, and i quit.
acer is a horrible face for this company/game.
I got suspended for posting this:
"my thoughts too killer.
acer is an awful representation for evony.
unless evony wants to hide the fact that we the players are absolutely outraged at their censorship and lack of willingness to explain whats actually going on with our server, then sure, he's a great face. keep up the good work acer!
i've seriously about had it with this bs. and i know im not alone saying that "
Is it not enough that i can't play the game? Now I get banned for my own opinions?
Seriously - try me out evony. Ban me again, and u can shove your game where the sun don't shine.
Is it so incredibly difficult to at least turn the food use off until you fix this?
At least the festering boil of anger that you have created will be salved rather than constantly exacerbated by your seeming lack of caring ... not to mention the absence of even undefinitive updates.
As for the 100 coins? Hell, you're getting them back and then some in unwanted holidays.
I wish we had ss57 fixed or that we had a permanent solution all ironed-out and ready to go (and I know our technicians do as well) however this server has proven especially difficult to find and isolate the latency issues.
I know its frustrating but our techs are continuing to work every day to find a solution.
turn off the upkeep then dawnseeker. 50% upkeep atleast.
thx for trying to fix this problem dawnseeker - but as lag is so intensive it is really hard to farm to feed the armies and just as hard to farm reds as you cant time attack properly
so some kind of redused upkeep would help while we wait

Default Same thing on SS55
Not one to speculate but the same thing is happening on another game I play. League of Legends...
I wonder if the same party is responsible for it here too.. namely Lulzec Security?
I wonder if we'll ever get a straight answer out of the Evony folks other than, we are "experiencing technical issues with out Data Center"
best explanation yet.
LULZ!!! :rofl::cheer::cheer::cheer::cheer:
We have to be careful about doing reduced upkeep for long periods of time. It can cause people to create larger armies than they would ordinarily be able to feed and then when the buff is removed it feels like a punishment.
It's something to consider, but it may not be a good idea.
Updates from Evony would be helpful... daily, hourly even, if they are truly working on correcting this issue. Most of us are working for Evony, actually, in trying to motivate our alliances and keep people from leaving the game. Allow us to help as well by keeping us informed. As for the reduced upkeep being a punishment once removed, most of us would find it a greater punishment to lose what troops we do have to refuge. Thanks for your time and efforts in this matter.
I for one would MUCH rather have to go on a killin spree to moderate an upsized army ONCE THE LAG IS RESOLVED than have to stress if i'm going to be able to login to farm to feed my current army.
It would be a FANTASTIC excuse to get us all motivated into battle again after the now weeks of inactivity for MOST of us due to the lag.
just my $0.02 usd.
ps- we were ALSO promised us an EXTRA day of free upkeep on 6.20.11, which we NEVER received.

would a server merge fix the problem with the lag? since this has been ongoing for months now and evony techs seem not to know how to fix it or if they are working hourly they are milking the clock.....
