View Full Version : Server downtime



Mokoi

Due to downtime of critical network infrastructure, some services are currently not available.

Most notably, this affects the login servers for Neocron and the IRC.
We do our best to keep the downtime to a minimum and are working with our datacenter to contain the issue.

Please note that while you can not currently log in to play,
the gameservers and characters are fine and not directly affected by this issue.

Sorry for the inconvenience and please stay tuned for updates.

Sincerely,

Neocron Support Team

around 5-10 minuts before there was a german twitter. Strato got a Twitter support, which now send a message to the technical support crew (strato) 5 minutes ago.

here the (german) quote:


STRATO hilft ‏@STRATO_hilft
@GM_Zoltan Email ist jetzt angekommen. Ich habe die Kollegen der Technik soeben informiert. Wir melden uns wenn die Rückmeldung vorliegt.^gr

Zoltan is dealing with STRATO AG - the server host via twitter and email:

german tweets:




Ben 'Zoltan' Wagner ‏@GM_Zoltan
@STRATO_hilft Es gibt wieder mal Probleme, hier wurde ein Server abgeschalten und keiner kann mir sagen, weshalb. Auch nicht telefonisch.

STRATO hilft ‏@STRATO_hilft
@GM_Zoltan Bitte betreff. Server und Kd.-Daten an twitter@strato.de. Wir schauen es uns an und melden uns. ^gr

@STRATO_hilft Das wär super, ich forwarde einfach die bisherige Mail.

@GM_Zoltan Wir haben noch keine E-Mail erhalten. Bitte an twitter@strato.de schicken. Dankeschön. ^gr


@STRATO_hilft ist seit 16:12 raus. Spamfilter womöglich? Die DOmain ist frisch umgezogen.

Ok sounds good to me :D hope it is fixed soon :P they should do a GM event or something for the downtime, as we have no had one for a long time. Maybe help us out a little with items in game or something as it really hard to farm for some of them.

We've just com off the back of a double xp weekend that was taken advantage of by at least 41% population. Considering less than 10% did the work to achieve this, I'd say we're still quids in.
Quit scavving because of some downtime.

Dumdies
21-01-13, 18:54

Yes but my point being it is a new server, things are still hard to farm not that i have a problem farming them. But if some things were easier to get i dont mean right away maybe some time in the future to have a GM event or something to have the Neocron community together doing something to gain something :D at the end of the day we want this community yo last and help each other as much as possible to help the game run smoothly :D

I actually haven't taken advantage of it at all. I was making a start on doing this morning, then the server went down during a regeants run :)

I have to admit, I'd like double XP to be left on all the time, but that's just me, and I'm all about endgame.

Hehe the only problem was with the double xp, i found from alot of people is everyone leveling in the same area. I dont wanna go to much into detail about this but maybe have something extended into neocron to level somewhere like maybe a new leveling area or something in the future. I dont know what people think about this but many replies i think are going to be mad people saying you cant change neocron it always been like this.

Actually, it hasn't always been like this. Years ago, there were more places to level that were considered viable. Now, there are 2-3 places considered fast XP (Regeants, El Farid and apparently the back of the chaos caves - pet hate), and the rest are left for farming parts, for the most part. You're right though, these places were absolutely rammed this weekend.

I wonder if there are any places up in DoY that are worth levelling in...

And i am so happy about this, because this way my ppu Spy team had all the warbot fun for ourselves, wich left us with a weekend full of Xp, and the Appartment full of tech-parts ;) !
Yeah!

But now, im getting a strange itchy hot and cold feeling, and i need my next neocrack dose, so hurry up, before i try to find a substitute that doesnt help anyway!

It wouldn't ruin the game making this XP permanent, it's not like leveling in NC is a thrilling experience lol. It's an all-out grind.

In fact, i'd go as far it puts new-comers off, after-all, us old timers are only here for the op fights and plaza 2 skirmishes! lol

No, it's where I am posted to. As for the rest of your post... I rest my case.

Naim
21-01-13, 22:06
One thing I want to add to this discussion:

Prolonging the Double XP-Event mainly helps all beginners and people who recently came back to NC as those guys have to level a lot.

For trolls und dummies, I am going to repeat that sentence in other words:

Of course, all players benefit from double-xp but fresh players have a bigger benefit as they dont already have a capped char.

I'm starting to get confused about Germany tbh.. How the hell can you make the best cars in the World (BMW and Merc), and have a working moral like that?
Any half-competent hoster in Denmark have people on Watch 24/7..

EDIT:
This is not ment for the NC volunteers ofc, and obviously I have no idea what kind of deal you have with your host-provider.
We also have costumers who are in completely charge of their servers (their servers are in a co-location), and if something goes wrong with those, we only help out for a fee..

nice work zoltan & co.!

but ive 2 questions:
1. is the double xp still active ?
2. is there a chance that there will be a rollback? (i don't hope so, cause i woc'ed my tank xD)

just my 2 cents

Zoltan
22-01-13, 11:12
- Double xp until we've solved the problem but at least until wednesday
- No rollback is planned excepting "the experience of technical difficulties due to circumstances of potentially apocalyptic significance beyond our control." (tm)

danmalone
22-01-13, 11:13
Please note that while you can not currently log in to play,
the gameservers and characters are fine and not directly affected by this issue.



We'll extend the double XP time as a compensation. Cool eh? Spread it and get ready!

Hopefully the above should answer both of your questions :)

I'm hoping that the servers are up tonight - Keep up the good work guys... really liking the way things seem to be going at the moment.

Good job to those greedy no life sons of a .... that just broke the login server again :D and so much for the hosting company. Which i been told dont have 24/7 support so looks like tomorrow or something now for neocron to be back up. Some of us have to work and dont get much time as it is. Well this has annoyed me yet again and probably alot of other people.

This is really pissing me off now, a server hosting company who cant even keep the login server stable, how much are you paying these people because they sure are shit. So many people want to say this i bet but dont wanna get banned. It really really needs sorting out!

Yeah hopefully not but since the hosting company doesnt have 24 hour support it might be all night as it is late now. Just wish it would be fixed once and for all!

You're not paying for this Zoltan is. He will decide what to do and how to best deal with the problem. Christ youre even more whiney on here than you are in the damn game.

Do you know what's pissing me off?

It's the fact that most of the people vocally whining about the servers going down most likely don't have a clue how to run a server, let alone an MMORPG. Let alone a ten year old RPG which was developed in the previous millennia.

We all want to play, I'll give you that, but try to show some respect and wish them luck in resolving the problems they're having with the servers they pay for.

Zoltan and co owe you nothing. They aren't taking fat pay cheques out of this. The are doing us all a favour each and every day.

I agree with LOKI.

Any and EVERY uptime is appreciated; beats the alternative. Its annoying nto being able to play but thats cuz NC is addictive and I hate RL. But to completely bash and cuss out volunteers and/or the service they provide or choose as hosting companies it just downright immature and pety.

I still can't activate my account (I registered just before the server went down yesterday :( ) and I know I only have 48 hours to complete the registration. I have tried clearing my cache incase that was the problem but still being redirected to the 'not available' page. I know the devs have been busy with the main game but any idea on when that part will be back up, or if my 48 hours are up can I re-register with the same email when it is up and running.
Thanks for any info :)

The expiration time for all registrations currently pending has been extended by 96 hours.
In the unlikely case that your registration should already have expired, you will simply have to revisit step #1 of the registration process.

Please note that account management is not available again yet.
It will return as soon as possible, current ETA: when it's done™

Sorry for the inconvenience.
