What's up with the FSD jumps again?

stripealipe · Nov 28, 2015

Hmmmf.... yep, jumps are taking an *age* at the moment................

* now confirmed working flawlessly in Solo. So it seems they have somwehow fixed the sloooow jumps prevalent in solo since around the first mega-bucks smuggling missions and moved them to Open. Nice.....! (not)

** and i don't usually get so annoyed, but prime time weekend hours and the community goal ended silly early and now we can't travel anywhere. Not fast anyways... Mebbe i'll go smash my ship into a (shadowless) asteroid..

Any official FD response on this?
anyone opened a ticket?

It's really slow at the moment, hopefully this improve soon, I thought it may be longer if you can jump further, but i dont think this is the case as I jumped from my Explorer to the Python and same lag.

Ok, now in Open and all seemingly good again..

I haven't noticed any problems with jumping from system to system. In Open and Solo its been normal for me. However, the one place I do have issues is dropping in on stations. It can take up to 2 or 3 minutes to transition from Supercruise to Normal Space but only at stations. I'm not sure if these are related problems. But they seem similar in nature.

definitely seems to be taking and age to jump between systems in private - gonna see if solo gives me the same issues...

--Update--

Seems fine in solo.

I"m 49K Ly out. Whatever happened three days ago sped up opening the system map, but witchspace is unbearable.

Just wanted to say that I have been playing ED for over a year now with no time issues concerning jumps in open play! But, since Friday (UK), the jumps have been at least 10 times longer than normal for me!!!

Zeeman · Nov 29, 2015

I'm currently 23k Ly out,I was getting a fair bit of it last night. Though, having done over 5k Ly yesterday, I took it as a sign to log off and do something else. I did quick 500Ly stint this morning, and all was good and speedy.

Z...

After posting, my time went from 60-240sec down to 8-10sec. Thanks

dont worry, it will come back again this evening

AnnuverScotinExile · Nov 29, 2015

I am finding it patchy even now. Most jumps are OK, but now and then (say 1 in 5) it is taking much longer than normal. And I am over 10K LY out, and have not seen another CMDR for over 6 months, and not visited a system that anyone else has flagged for at least 25K LY.

The 'nip into solo mode' thing is noted. But I promised myself I would get to Elite in open, and so have never left open. I'm not going to compromise that now, even if I am the only one that gives a damn how I got to Elite. It also is against my philosophy of making in-game decisions for in-game reasons, since solo/open is an out of game thing.

Sitting in Hyperspace as I type. The last jump took a good minute to complete. Averaging around 30 seconds or more.

I'm 9k Ly out.

It's been like this for the last 3 or 4 days

Feel sorry for all the people that paid £10 for the game in the sale, if I decided to take the plunge and give it a try I would be well and truly put off the game by all this.

Saool · Nov 29, 2015

Not just jumps; undocking, frame shift transitions, bulletin board updates, transactions, and of course frequently getting dropped from the server.

So much so that I have not played ED for more than about 10 mins at a time in the last week. Sadly, I think I am approaching that point where I am not missing it. Need 1.5 and 2.0 soon.

Kicks · Nov 29, 2015

I decided to go explore Merope from Varati this morning. Apart from the odd journey taking a little longer than normal, it was way better than Friday/Saturday.

LawHunter · Nov 29, 2015

Ever since the CQC update this issue has put me off playing. Used to be nippy jumping around. Any long distances and its boring as hell. Can't even walk away from the computer as my ship will crash in to the star. Joy.

Saool · Nov 29, 2015

2 mins of watching my FdL spin. Then I am in. And within another 2 mins: Disconnected from server.

EDIT: removed over reaction.

Does anyone know if having OneDrive open can affect ED? I'm looking at what could be causing the disconnects as others don't seem to have this issue. I've moved back to solo but also closed OneDrive. Seems ok for now.

EDIT: Nevermind. Dumped off the server again.

Please raise a ticket as myself and others are having the same issue and have been for a few weeks now. It needs more people to ticket this to get enough attention / priority from support.
