    Default Unreliable Servers, Constant Down Time

    I usually don't do this, in fact most of the time I just post to let evony know a particular server is down and laugh at those who demand cents or whatever...

    But today, and really the past week has been a terrible experience. I can really only speak for the server I am on, 168, yet I know the same problems are occurring on other servers as well. This will be the third time, that I know of, today that s168 has gone down. The first two times were not that big of a deal, only 15 minutes or so - but the third time its been gone for about an hour. Now I know, there's a lot to do to keep ~150 servers live 24/7, yet the unreasonableness of them this past week has been the worst I've ever seen.

    I've played this game since s131, in January (I think) 2010. Yeah, there has always been lag, but I can get over that. This past week, with servers going down every day, multiple times a day... is terrible.

    I'm not going to sit here and demand cents, or whatever, or say I'm going to quit, because I'm not. But this needs to be addressed. It's a major inconvenience to have servers down several times a day. And really, with technology the way it is now, there is no excuse for it either.

    Do what you need to do, take a few hours and move them to more reliable systems. Just make it so that they will at least stay online when they are supposed to. Get your dev team out of bed and call up Regan Merc. and tell them you need some new servers because the one's you have are shot.

    Thanks, hope this reaches the right ears.

    I'm not saying I'm going to quit either. But I admit to becoming concerned to say the least. I have builds and techs about to finish and want to start new ones and the server is down so I can't do it. It's always at the back of my mind that when I launch an attack the server is going to go down so I can't scout before the attack hits. What used to be a pretty good war game to play with real people is fast turning into a nightmare! Quite frankly I don't blame people at all for quitting. But they'll be back. Perhaps when they come back it will be better.

    ss38 has been the same honestly, Ive had trouble playing since i came out of holiday yesterday.

    not to mention waiting a minute extra for each wave to land/return really slows down attacking people.

    Methinks all this lag and connection issues

    is caused by the little bobs all finishing their quests and raking in thousands of evoween treats and bags every second in each server..

    ..just my 2 cents..
