Server Connection

I am currently having trouble connecting to most of the game servers. I started writing down the server IP numbers last night. So far I have only been able to connect to 1 out of 4 IPs. I can list them all later when I get home from work later if needed.

As of right now I have to completely exit and restart to try and get a good server. Is this a known issue? Having to restart 1-20 times just to play is becoming bothersome.

I'm having the same problem. Had similar issues during the beta, went on for days. Only fix I found was clearing save and starting anew. I'm really hoping to find a solution, would rather not lose my eagle and stash due to some strange esoteric issue.

Has anyone been getting this error since going over to gamma. Can play around 30 mins before I get kicked out of the game with can contact server this rarely happened in beta but now its happening every 30mins. Is anyone else having the same problem.

Nope, been better for me if anything. Sounds internet related to me, although if you have other software running in the background that may do it especially if it uses the 'net too. I used to have issues with a couple of packages always looking for updates at 13.00 (I set the timer years ago) and I twigged that I kept having the system crash at about the same time.

Sad thing - after hours I got a CTD (yesterday). Now I cant enter my cockpit again: "Server Error - Could not connect to server" - regardless of Solo, Private Group or Open Play. I jump into my seat and a second later: Error.
I had this in Beta before - clear save helped - but guys: This would be extremely annoying in release. So I keep my "Save" and let you guys evaluate the problem.
Ticketed this in Beta and is still "New": 48332 (ticketed it for Opala - but this time it ocurrs somewhere else)

Btw: Fast "Esc" workes shortly. But Hypejump/SC => Error

Ah - and one more: Cleared my installation, removed everything below AppData\... and reinstalled - nothing changed.

The only stutters I get are in the hyperspace animation. Check your graphics options and see if the framerate limiter is on as I have seen claims it can cause stutter.

This is a known bug or more likely a series of bugs and optimisation issues that is still being tackled on Frontiere end. I get the stuttering sometimes as way.

I can't click "Start" to connect to the game servers and start playing... But I can't see any notice about downtime?

54.247.46.142:19364 (unconnected)
54.170.239.66:19364 (unconnected)
54.75.183.216:19364 (unconnected)
...
etc
...

EDIT: Nevermind, I did a validation of game files from the launcher and that seemed to fix everything.

the server i connect too is in Ireland (54.73.99.21), if you want to find out the location of the server just type its IP address into visual trace route and it will tell you the end point.

its worth noting that the servers only handle matchmaking and galaxy information, when playing in open or private group the connections between CMDR's are P2P.

What ya stuck on?
The game is peer-to-peer so has very little that needs to run 'on the server' graphics, interaction mostly local... trading, linking you with other players, new map parts, character, ship mods, all on server

The game runs on Amazon AWS server farms, the where and how many of these there are is confidential information that only Amazon really knows.

They use peer to peer to augment the server farms. The local computer also handles quite a bit of heavy lifting as well. It an interest hybrid and it will be interesting to see how well it scales up.
