Thread: Server 4

  1. #1

    Default Server 4

    i must say, you folks on staff continue to amaze me with your lack of insight. you continue to add servers and you cannot even keep server 4 online properly. myself and others are getting booted from the server on an average of 7 times per day. do you folks consider this to be acceptable? please consider spending some of money you are making and fix it. pretty darn simple if you ask me. i personally know of 4 ppl that have just quit playing due to being booted constantly. you may bring in new folks daily, but if your also losing ppl. your profits will eventually shrink. then what?

    I agree completely! I got booted at least 10 times yesterday in the span of 3 hours. Plus when it takes me TWENTY FREAKING MINUTES *literally* to get a scout or attack report... This is completely and utterly unacceptable...

    OOO I know, lets make tons of servers and not worry about how it affects the other ones... I just want the money.
    GREAT IDEA GUYS! *Eye roll*

    no. servers were added to help reduce lag. sounds mad but here me out.
    more servers were added to "spread" the players around more. therefore reducing lag on an individual server. imagine everyone that plays evony squashed into a dozen servers.
    that would lag.
    meanwhile evony work on upgrading and updating each server... granted it gives them more work to do, but it results in a better playing experience for you.

    Try refreshing the browser every so often, the map section has a memory leak and will slow down and get laggier and laggier until it crashes, no matter what server you're on. Not saying that's the source of all lag, but it helps and I haven't had any significant issue on server 32 with lag other than that and the occasional couple mins of downtime.

    If this is the case, maybe offer server transfers from packed servers to low population servers? Most games do that to balance out player #s per server anyway. Also could put a population per server indicator on the main page, either in numbers or in capacity, that would help a lot more people move to or start on lower pop servers.

    While this is true, and it did work, for a time, I've noticed a slow regression of server quality on S3.

    In march, it was terrible. In April, it bad. In may, it was ok. In june, it was fine.
    In july, it slowly went from fine, to bad.
    So, I predict that by mid-august, Sever 3 lag will be as bad as it was in march.

    A case of what goes around, comes around.

    It wouldn't surprise me though if most ran on the same hardware server.

    The servers were duplicated to spread the players out, thus, applying more work. Evony Staff is not just sitting around collecting bucks and great population stats over Tribal Wars and Ikariam... No. They are trying their very best and the servers are their number one priority.
