Continuous Server issues starting to put me off DW2

As the title says, beginning to get really P'd off with 30 second jumps in VR which is nauseating, combined with disconnects.

And not a peep from the Frontier.

Instead Frontier have devoted their time to releasing half baked updates which create more bugs. More pointless paintjobs and bobbleheads and they don't bother fixing the really big problems like this one.

Sigh. Frontier I love your game, and I keep buying cosmetics in hope that it helps fund the game more, but please invest more time into fixing the core game and the server issues that have been running rampant for a very long time.

They aren't running rampant. I'm not paying 1000$ a month for internet or anything, just have a basic package from the local ISP, and aside from the first launch of DW2 and a couple instances over the next day, haven't had any major issues with disconnects or lag. Have been doing all kinds of wing stuff, mining and racing and made a few hundred jumps since then on my way out to the next stop without any issues.

If your story is different than that, where you're having constant problems, it may not be an issue on FDev's end. Submit a bug report, check the forums for the myriad of helpful suggestions out there on making things better(like enabling IPV6) and best of luck to you.
 
5th disconnect while hopping between systems, 3rd day in a row. Maybe I'm not the only one, who knows...
Bug report? Since it's been (at least) the 3rd day they should have the appropriate numbers already and saying "game kicks me, severity: guess what?" wouldn't really augment their data I assume...

"Should" being the operative word. If you and everybody else assume "somebody" has sent in a bug report, they're not getting complete data, regarding your system specs, packet loss, etc.

Send in bug reports. 2 out of the 3 top threads today are people complaining about disconnects. Complaining doesn't fix server issues, developers do, aided by, you guessed it, bug reports.

There have been major server issues since 3.3 dropped over a month ago. There are already enough reports about it on the bug board. Or are you suggesting that they only act after a certain number of bugs are actually reported?

For a 25 yr old company, they sure haven't learnt how to build an MMO net infrastructure.

For the record, I checked all my companies main data centres, Germany, ireland, IOM, Canada, New York and all were fine. So this is not my PC, my net topology, it's Frontier.

You're not a teacher, are you?

That's a whole lot of tripe and waffle. They have all the logs they need on their own servers to show who/when/how/IP Connection type. Quit making excuses about stuff you seem to know little about.
 
I'm not engaging in DW2, and I've just been booted off re: matchmaking server. So clearly there's a capacity issue, and I'm not here to winge but because I can't get into the game right now, I may as well seek out others in the same boat. Hello to the many of them... ;)

Calm down children.
There are disconnects, and I feel the OP's pain.
Rational explanation is needed, not emotion.

It's more frustration and blinding headaches to be frank. Been particularly bad tonight. In VR it's taking 45 seconds to a minute or more to jump, or get disconnected. When you do reconnect, you've to plat your route again. And now I'm wondering if FSS data is actually being captured. On one of the reconnects, I had previously fuel scooped and Mapped the system, and when I got back on, I was back to the jump in point and needing to scoop again.

And now I've just landed at Rohini and only got 4m for all the first dicovereds, mapping of rich metals etc.

Exasperating...
