Game's challenging

Over the last few days, I've been doing some exploration in the outskirts of the populated space.
About every 10-15th jump in a row the game used to kick me out (unrecoverable error on transaction server) at least until now.
With the new server-sided update which: "significantly reduce the number '499' timeout errors triggered when Commanders travel to certain types of star systems",
I can now stay in hyperspace for ages and have to hard-quit the game manually.
Great job, devs (or should I rather say blind owls)!

No, it's not my ISP or connection, I can play fast-paced online hack 'n slays with this rig without much of a problem.
Just E: D succs!

Well it seems to be your connection to the servers that is a piece of <snip> unfortunately :/ I'm connecting from Dubai, only on 20MB, have been connected for a few day's straight in OPEN play, I only ever disconnect for patches. This machine is purely for ED.. Should also add my girlfriend streams movies and it doesn't effect my connection.

I take it you have a support ticket open? What feedback are you getting?

Connection is solid as a rock here, has been pretty much since launch, and I live outside the known civilization on a rather crappy ADSL ... (even when the wife'n kids stream 2xnetflix + viaplay)
 
And this is one of those threads where soon someone will start calling everybody else 'delusional fanboi' or worse, right?
 
Super fast hack and slays?
WoW!?

Regardless I rarely have issues with disconnects. I do get them now and then but it seems to settle after a little while.
Maybe it's their servers; but it's just as likely to be an issue your end if it's happening so regularly.

Btw the tone of your post 'succs' too
 
It's this sort of thing that's making me umm and ahhh about whether to play at all, or just go for a full refund - this is why I'm unhappy there isn't a proper offline mode, where servers don't come into it; there are no servers to cause disconnections! If I play, it will be as a singleplayer, so to have an online technicality ruin my game time and time again isn't what I signed up for. I've always disliked the idea that you have to be online all the time - in a singleplayer game - because if the server decides to go down, or there's a problem with my connection, I can't play at all.
