Alva.4590 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 I know, I know "never play on patch day" but still...Not being able to log in, not being able to change the maps, and if you're lucky to start a story instance the game crashes after 10 minutes of loading.Didn't you had stress tests, Anet?Oh wait... you did.... but on Eu servers they were on times where almost no one was actually active anymore, so that the servers didn't need to hold those masses like today.Pls take it as an advice : next time if you want to release an expansion maybe make your stress tests on a reasonable time (example 18:00 CEST).I think that a lot of disappointings with not being able to play properly could have been avoided this way :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conncept.7638 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 NA stress tests were the same, depending on your time zone they ranged from late morning to early afternoon on workdays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alva.4590 Posted September 22, 2017 Author Share Posted September 22, 2017 Heard that :/ Imo they can't really call this "stress" test... more like "anti stress" test xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ardid.7203 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 The game is running? Knowing about some other games patch days, I would say this is a good patch then... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relax some mateWhy shouldn't I? I payed the money, developer pushed the product I payed money for, the product is not working. I'm righteouselly pissed. But the damage is done, and the only thing Anet can make of it now is to learn on its mistakes.1) DON'T bottleneck new maps behind story instances (if they are not stress-tested properly)2) Do proper stress testsIs that so hard? Why every developer has to learn on his mistakes? There was a total fiasco of WoW:Draenor with bottle-necked garrison instance. Why Anet could not look at Blizzard mistakes and not do the same thing?

Anyone paying attention saw plenty of them before release, live and/or on various streams. You would think someone would have investigated that before waffle day today.

Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Was this just an EU issue? I played on NA with no issues except when they removed the Legendary Queen (near the end of us killing it). Otherwise, no issues whatsoever.Sorry to hear some had troubles.

I'm happy. (Yeah, I got far enough to get into Amnoon, then got booted back to Lion's Arch. If that happens, and you have a Lily of Elon pass, you can use that to get back to Amnoon if the WP is wedged.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
