Thread: SS46 Lag Worse Now (After the Extended Maintenance)

    Maybe evony devs should stop with their daily maintenance. That would be awesome. No maintenance for a week. Sweet deal. Or how about a new server in which you pay monthly to be on? (Not popular for our non-spenders) But its an idea nonetheless

    I think there were posts here and there about people getting the "Network Connection Error" message from this server.

    I also think that this server used to be hosted out of California and not Washington, where all the other problem servers seem to be...

    That said, when I ping battless46.evony.com, I now have a Washington data center IP, 208.88.18.151. The 208 IPs are in Washington, where as the 64s are in California.

    The only way to know for sure if this is the case is to see if there are traces of DNS history for the server being at the Cali address block.

    Good thing I'm not sleepy...

    Edit: Current actual game server name is m00046-ad.evony.com at 208.88.18.51. The battless46.evony.com is at 208.88.18.151.

    Edit2: I can only find this information out if I pay for a lookup / history site subscription. I am relatively sure that the server has been moved though. I'd say 90% or so. If it was relocated, that could explain the lengthy delay, as the process would go generally like this:

    Cali server shut down.
    Washington server up or brought up.
    Data transfer initiated. <--- That's where the majority of the variability in time to completion comes into play.
    Data transfer completed.
    Server processes brought back up.
    Some tests to make sure things look ok. Minimal load, so no load test at this point.
    Change network routing / DNS.
    Open the server for login.

    Interesting... im also thinking along the same path...
    If their "upgrades" involved rerouting to another area...
    Which can explain the really bad lag happening today :/

    If that's the case... i wonder why evony would intentionally put an existing server on defective hardware

    They haven't a clue what Adtaq (the hosting provider in Washington) is doing, in my opinion, and neither does Adtaq, also my opinion. M5 Hosting (San Diego) seems to do a much better job in general, but that's where the game-wide outage happened at a few weeks ago, so dunno....

    Default SS46 Lag Worse Now (After the Extended Maintenance)

    Hello Evony!

    On Server SS46, we had an "Extended Maintanance" that lasted 7hrs+ yesterday.

    The reason for this was, as quoted: "Greetings! We've taken ss46 offline somewhat early to do some maintenance which should improve performance. We expect this server to be offline for about another 1-2 hours. Thanks for your patience while we work to improve the game!"

    Apparently, the opposite has happened.
    Lag is a LOT WORSE NOW.
    Here are examples of what's happening now:







    Funny eh?

    Before the "Extended Maintenance", SS46 was doing fine. No complaints about lag, etc. Now, everyone is experiencing unbearable lag.

    This could only bring to mind horror stories about SS57, 54, 60....
    *Crosses fingers that SS46 isn't heading down the same path*

    Any help from the Evony Gods would be appreciated
