Realistic Fatshark game experience, 40 000 types of server errors.
guess i´m blessed with eu servers then.
last disconnect while in a match was around 3 months ago ?
login errors sure, but thrown out of a match…
anyways, even if it was the “default” experience for that person, that ain´t no way to play a game in any sense of the matter.
what motivation would there be starting a match not knowing if you see the end ?
My last disconnect was the last day I played darktide (2 daus ago, i am away of home for work)
And i have got 5 disconnections in one match
Error 1001, 1011, 2001, 2014 etc…
Irritating to say the least. Sometimes it’s fine, sometimes I get nailed in the middle of the week and it’s time to not play the game.
Most of the time when there’s a problem, it’s not disconnects, it’s rubber-banding and no hit registration from latency going nuts, I’ll blame half of that on my ISP and half on FS’s servers.
okay but isn´t that a sign the connection at that location isnt suited for gaming as a whole ?
i mean i´d try right now if local firewall wasnt in place, still getting “disturbed” every now and then i´d rather not commit to a 30 minute match, however tempting while getting payed for it
whats the crash % at your home adress ?
edit:
i guess i need to add the “sith level of absolutes” when it comes to gaming as my main hobby, i picked my current house based on the internet connection quality at that time…
Because it can be a situational expirience. Server errors and crashes wasn’t a big thing before for me. But i logged in for the new event and have dc’s every match, and not only me, i see randoms are disconnecting too, sometimes 2 players at once. Sometimes i can’t even start a match, server error appears during the searching game phase. And there are topics on the steam subforum people have this problem in different regions.
I go play other games - and suddenly there are no problems. It’s just small indie company moment. Poor technical quality is there since Vermintide 1.
Punishing people cause your servers are shitting themselves doesn’t make sense.
It happened on one match…
well it was rather weighing the “acceptable level” of collateral damage to get people from cheesing game modes, which (and this is a absolute guess on my part) should be way higher numbers than legit crashing people.
i´m just fed up with almost every round having a nose diver disconnect and a week later boast about having a shiny new title they didn´t deserve.
current situation is that titles and achievements mean nothing cause a large portion of those strutting them around didn´t do so legit.
plus having a whole game mode with the same modus operandi is going to increase these “encounters” by a large number, so i´d rather discourage the usual suspects up front.
hence (and again this is just me spitballing) there´d be an algorithm in place sorting out these “oddities”
but thats all wishful thinking on my side, its not that its getting a way into the game anyways.
I’m not disagreeing completely with such system. The question is how would you measure that necessary evil? Because it’s always will be “not happening to me means not a problem at all”, cause there is no some sort of public logs about servers. And in reality that collateral damage can be on insane scale.
As i mentioned i play their games since V1 and I’m not optimistic with how FS handle technical quality.
But i agree that cheesing is pathetic. Either they should invent something, or don’t punish players for not completing Havoc, so there will be no motivation to cheese in the first place.
Since there a Fluid Ranking System will cheat mod be allowed too ? Cus I don’t wanna in the same rank with someone using it.
The incredible amount of bellyaching over potentially seeing someone with some meaningless digital trinket that they didn’t earn honorably reminds me of that quote about academic politics being so vicious because the stakes are so low.
Formatting the Q&A to drop in the next hour!
As much as I enjoy the challenge, I see no purpose in actually playing this beside the challenge itself. Rewards are not worth it, I have so much currency that I will never spend, because I don’t have anything to spend it on. I have all geld-priced cosmetics, that I care for, and 12 million additionally to boot. I have 200k Melk’s currency, 100k plasteel, 50k diamantine and already have all, even the new, weapons mastered. It is not rewarding at all. I gather currencies that I have nothing to spend on. The chest means nothing with the current reward state… Give me 100 aquilas at least to make it worth my while to play this every week and strive. Same thing goes for events… At least get a small discount on something in the store…
