ED Server / Servers Down problems discussion thread

server up just now for me UK.

If the server farm is this flaky I sincerely hope it's just because FD have only paid for proper resilience at the launch point, I work in service delivery and I'd have been shot by now if this was a live service!!

TrackIR.. it wasn't incredibly LAGGY for you?

Not that I noticed, very strange....

Usually that means either the server is down or you lost connection to it, in which case rebooting it usually fixes it.

But the server has been very unstable today, goes on and off repeatedly (was even a thread about it somewhere). I guess with Gamma 2.00 released there is a lot of strain and bugfixing going on.

Didn't think you had to fix wqear and tear as it was just cosmetic - expensive otherwise and i flew for ages on 100% with no obvious iussues

Great... game is back on, i've got a mission to recover a black box that can't be turned in. Nowhere on the BBS to hand it back.

I'm bound to get busted on the way out for smuggling too.

Come out of the game and back in and then see if the mission reappears.

I had this issue all last night and logging off then back on resolved it for me.

I plan on making one ASAP just waiting for some info from FD

I also suggested a few tweaks to the launcher (which I would prefer to having to make the status web site)

You can see a crude mock up here:

Anton_ · Dec 11, 2014

FD, we are your friends. Please just tell us what's going on and give us an idea of how long the current rash of server-downs is likely to go on for.
