Servers getting worse and worse. Devs please read.

[dale "dalewj" ofj]

Is it possible to do a little Maintenance on the current server?  Maybe a nice full reboot of the server or the sessions and a cleaning up of the database.  They are getting worse and worse and I fear very soon even us hard core will have to stop playing.

just a bit of your time to keep what is going ... going please.

maybe you might want to clean up all the memory that has leaked onto the server room floor too

Из за вылетов сервера, не игра , а мучение, исправляйте скорее, а то много времени впустую тратится.

Would think that after 12h+ of servers down the situation would be better, but its worse.
Instead of having a good night of sleep, they're having a hangover it seems.

Dale's been right in past, he's right now, and will be right in future !

There are a few possibilities, either server side code is the issue (e.g. upgrades to the survival game code) or the server hardware is not up to the task of having a 'large' number of players  active.
Unfortunately, I do not see either of the possibilities being resolved anytime soon.
It is the price one pays for being in Survival as an early adopter

When you renovate your house it can be very uncomfortable to live in during some of the reno's.

You just have to know it will be tough for awhile, and grin and bare it.

The end result makes it worthwhile

Our next task (and current, to be honest) is really big: it's server cluserization. That means that instead of one server we will be able to run many. Those servers will handle players and calculations, dividing our world to many smaller sectors. The trick is to make those sectors connected and united, so bullets, monsters and NPC's would be able to cross those invisible borders and fly between sectors (servers).

As Anti said, we'll be working primarily on servers, but that will include bug-fixes related to the general game play experience (crashes, hangs, lags, ect).

[Richard "Snakeeyes11" Walsh]

I don't suppose there's any chance of reverting back to Alpha?


Ever since the move to survival the game has been pretty much unplayable. Admittedly it's getting worse and worse by the hour it seems...


Which is a shame as it is such a great game (when working).

Yep and what many have to realise, team only just start back on work, so will take some time. An old saying i recall which seems to fit: '' It has to hurt, if its to heal''
