hell crap , i cant do either :(
my all workers will leave :'(
s165 is fine :D
that would be 154
Sorry for the downtime, there was a network outage at one of our datacenters. Things should be online again any minute.
man im glad its back up was once again short on food, cant wait for this server merger to get 0 upkeep, what a relief
Well, I can login. Just can't do anything due to lag of 20 - 117 seconds (of the ones I've timed).
Perhaps evony should take ss53 down again and try when the hamsters on the wheel have been fed again.
they should take ss46 down again,
atleast dont put it up when it lags like this cant get anything done
they should give out 1k cent compensation packages :rofl:
Well after trying for ages to log into 161 I finally manged to do so, for what its worth. Not even able to open the mail I have there, if I stay inside my city, well not so bad, if I go out, then block of color can't even see an npc!
After it was down last night for an hour, would of thought that things would be better, not worse. Please sort, this is driving me crazy!! (Well even more crazy than I usually am)
ss46 gone down :duh: was in after maintence that took forever then loads of lag and now the server gone down and some players are under attack is this an admin trick to kill citys?
And why merge? you cant even sort out the ones that are running now, i have the day of today and thought i would port out and attack,but i cant, server down and when it's up we get lag bad lag.
I have contacted my states attorney generals office and opened complaints against evony and regan merchantile, for failure to provide services that I have payed for. Contact your states attorney generals office via your states websit its not hard and not like ya can play the game as it is now anyways.
It must be every server. 161 is down and unable to log in. And if you do log in, the lag is so bad that you cant do anything. Perhaps Evony is imploding on hitself?? This is giving me more and more reason to quit this darn game! lol
My point was if we all just sit here and complain nothing happens, Evony does nothing, but we payed for a service and Evony is obligated to provide that service and they are not. So if we take action they have to do something.
Hey any news about the lag today? It is really bad.
Thanks.
If your in stay in, you seem to be able to do stuff, but once you log out you cant get back in
They don't "have" to do anything, It's not as if you own your account, and even if you did you can not sue them for something that is out of their control.
But, like I said, if you are suggesting they become beings of a higher power in order to provide you with access to a server their host isn't capable of putting online at the moment, I'm sure a Judge would agree.
That is literally the only course of immediate action they could take to provide you with the service you payed for without reading the contract. (I can only assume you didn't read it based on your sense of being owed)
EDIT: I feel as though I should clarify how Evony works in terms of what you pay for.
You don't pay for access to the account. That is free. You pay for cents, an in-game currency. Being as the account is free, Evony owns the account. You do not. You don't own the cents you pay for either, You "rent" them. You may use them while Evony chooses to let you use that account. If at any point (and for almost any reason) Evony decides you don't get to use the account anymore, they take it. Good luck suing them for denying you access to something that belongs to them.
Read the ToS.. It is a contract, it is legally binding. The terms and service of any video games are contracts. They are written by lawyers, Evony is a business.
You will get laughed at if you take them to court. They have VERY good lawyers, I've seen them in action, as have any of the other players who have been around since the beginning.
WN4, would not let me log in after it booted me lastnight and for a few days now I'm experiencing lagg issues.
Why now?
6 hours and counting for ss65 being down, you login, lag boots, you try to login again and lag wont let you, once you do get in lag boots you right off again ... takes over 5mins for chat to go thro, cant send farmers or do anything.
and this is the god knows how many days this has been going on for, that and the ghost WRs (seeing other alliances WRs in ours), genral server problems and map crashes. these all point towards the evony servers having 2 options .... 1. crash and have angry people or 2. merge (which by the looks of it already starting to happen)
if evony dont do something soon the whole of evony will crash, IE. all servers and all computers at their work place. they need to reboot whole servers, make new servers (merge) or clear all history of the servers (delete everything right back to default settings), only one of these are likely to cause least player aggrivation.
PS. we also go to make NPCs and as soon as we "abandon" the city, it turns back into a flat.
we are all noticing the effects that evonys servers are being over run, and they really need too change that because if they dont i think 90% of people will leave due to not being able to play at all.
Why can't i log in on server ss57? other can log in but i cannot. this would be the end of me playing here i think!!!!!
ss54 Lag is bad spinning clock for 8 hrs now u took my hero Evony somehow now u make it impossible to defend and farm well ty very much .... ghengisKhn
lag was really bad last night couldnt hardly farm now cant get on SS57 well if i refuge and evony doesnt fix it will be gone again cant play a game that doesnt work most of the time
where are the evony techs with an explaination? this is serious and is affecting a lot of players for way too long.. get you act together customer services. :mad: very poor show indeed, even if if is out of your control an indication of when things might return to normal would help your CUSTOMERS!
haha this is funny, opened a thread asking why we we're experiencing these problems (if it was due to them focusing on upcoming merger or just another evony technical mishap) and they shut the thread down and made it disappear.. well doesn't that just tell you something eh?.. typical bs from evony.
How the peep do you know? It's not like there's any staff around that deems us worthy of telling what the heck is going on.
And that's apart from the obvious question how it is possible for the problem last night, which isn't necessarily related to this one, that "a problem at ONE of our dataCENTERS" means nobody could do anything on Evony anymore. Seems pretty redundant to have multiple centers if they're not capable to act as backup for eachother.
aint been able to log in cause of the stupid lag since yesturday, this is BS, bet the food is going fast though, evony get your chit together and fix the dam servers!!!!
I was on yesterday and now today i wont let me on any server i am on 165 and tried 166 and neither would let me log in it says connection error but my connection is good!! any help
yeah watch out they may tell you its not them again and it is us, we need to check with out internet providers....lmao that was their excuse last time......lol ss65 has been down since yesturday, they need to get up off their arses and spend some of that millions they got from people who play this game and get a better more stable servers!!! but that will never happen
You claim I wouldn't know because nobody tells us whats going on, and then you quote Dawnseeker's explanation of the problem... Alrighty then.
Even if nobody said anything on Evony's end, a little common sense could be applied to the situation. They don't purposely take servers down without announcing it. If they extend maint, they announce it.
You clearly don't understand how Evony runs it's servers. Every server is not run off of a central system, there are "hubs", if you will, that run certain servers. I think your thinking that every server is run on one central dataserver, and any additional dataservers would be used for backup, that is not the case. This is why all servers almost never go out at the same time, it's better to have some customers suffer when things go wrong than all customers. It is the lesser of two evils.
I can assure you Evony as a business does not enjoy having their servers offline, whining isn't really gonna help resolve the problem quicker, their pockets can feel it.
That tells you the mods don't want 17 thousand threads on the same topic.
wont let me log in was fine yesterday and day before but today wont let me
blah blah blah all u ever say Cush :P
Uh no. That problem was that everybody was kicked out and nobody could log in anymore. It was fixed. Hours later the lag started. So that's an entirely different problem.
Yeah, what can I say about this when clearly ALL servers went out yesterday, all of them and that now every server, yes every server has major lag, except that you're blatantly wrong.Quote:

That there are problems with the game, isn't even the biggest issue. It's the blatant disrepect for us the staff is having by not showing up at all, not on these forums, not on feedback.evony.com, not on Evonygame.com. The problems with the lag run for more than 12 hours already and no one knows what's going on, if Evony staff even know there's a problem, what they're going to do about it, how long it will take for it to be fixed and so on and so on. It's like they vanished into thin air, or worse, that they could care less about what is happening to us and have a 'business trip' on the Bahamas.Quote:

No one would accept that kind of behaviour from a power company, no one would accept that accept that kind of behaviour from their internet provider, no one would accept a webshop remaining silent when an ordered product doesn't get delivered.
Why the hell should we accept it from Evony?
