Log In Issues: November 19th

[Michaelaz2]

Is it so much to ask we fix the current game issues and LAG before we roll out anymore "updates" and "events". This has become beyond ridiculous at the ever increasing frequency. I don't want no canned response either Turbine, I want accountability like the rest of us do at our jobs that actually pay for this service.
I pity the day anyone in that IT department gets a real job for a big client and FUBARS their servers and update like you do ours.

After hours in a snow storm on Eastern coast ? I'm guessing the IT repair crew is skeletal at best until tomorrow.

Yeah but a day of DDO VIP status cost 30 something cents.

Usually DDO will have a bonus weekend with XP and loot buffs to comp for a big mess up like today.

I'd rather have that then a quarter credit on my account.

I vote for double XP, triple Guild Renown!

I want Commendations of Heroism dropping in the Harbor!

- or just the game back -

I'm sure they are doing their best.

Stuff happens.

I agree that a credit would be pointless.

Please dont get mad at me, I may not have VIP status but I am a premium player. And how would you know I haven't spend more money then someone on a 10$ month subscription? If your that angry, I suggest maybe to write a constructive email or contact someone via phone where your message "may" have some impact.

As for contracts:

I understand most people do not read prior to posting. What I was addressing, was your statement claiming, as you put it, an "age of entitlement". I am pointing out your flawed logic. Of course we have an expectation to use the service we are paying for. Who in their right mind would pay for a service they didn't have an expectation to use? No one, because that doesn't make any sense.

Maybe you haven't been online much this week, but this has been an intermittent issue for 4 (5?) days now. I'm simply saying that crediting an extra 3 days to the current VIPs would be a great gesture of good will to their players/customers. Someone else mentioned turning on an exp bonus. If they made an exp bonus weekend (for all players), that would be quite nice too. Really, any kind of "sorry for all the down time this week; here's something for your patience and understanding" would be much appreciated.

historically they have done stuff like this after (extended) downtimes

subscription cancelled.

Maybe everyone frustration is getting to me too... I apologize if my statement seemed wrong.

[BritAKAsh0rtstuff]

I don't even have to log in to see if its fixed, I just come to the forum to see if everyone is still complaining much easier ahahah

[LevelJ]

Okay, what's really weird is I can get on lama, even with everything else not working. Last time that wasn't the case IIRC.

They will have it fixed. Please, no xp weekend or credit.

[Seneca_Windforge]

They still might offer some kind of credit or XP bonus or something -- realize that they probably wouldn't announce anything like that yet, even if they were going to do it. For all they knew going into this problem it would be over in a couple of hours and that would be that.

I know it sucks because I want to play right now too, but making angry, whiny, or just generally obnoxious posts in this thread isn't going to get the game back up any faster.

[Michaelaz2]

I don't 3 more days of VIP, I don't even want "bonus xp". I want a stable gaming world I can log into and play without lag or login issues, In other words , all I want is what I pay for. Keep your "Festivus" and "Ice Festival" and update #xx, just give us stable code and a gaming world or hire programmers who can. I suspect the entire coding is one giant patch on other previous patches and has become one big birds nest of code.

Having just come back to the game a couple weeks ago, I'm finding myself increasingly annoyed at just how inept the technical side of DDO has become. From client crashes (where there used to be none), to all these server and lag issues, to various seemingly ignored exploits, I doubt I'll stick around much longer than it takes me to explore the newer Updates.

[Nephiri]

UPDATE: Game logins are currently unavailable. We are investigating, and will keep you updated.

Translation: Servers are Borked. We have no idea why, and if we ever get things up and running again we will NOT tell you why they got Borked because we don't know!

I'm in on G-Land :-D

Here's what you do:

-Open the game.
-Build a small fire.
-Cast into the flames 3 Funyuns and a small torn corner of a PnP character sheet for a character that means something to you.
-Log in your password
-Spin around in your computer chair twice clockwise.
-Hit <ENTER>
-Then toss a d20 over your left shoulder.
-Should load.

Woot!

I hope everyone else can get in to.

Yep, worked for me. I almost fudged it though by turning in my chair the wrong way. Had to start over.
