GeForce Now patching process extremely slow
- Thread starter GeodeticFox
- Start date
Got in with Epic on Wed evening and did a run to check since U18.06.
Roughly the same as on Monday - 4 runs gave about 600K - 5th run played until died and even head butted the core for a little more - 205K
Just did a run after the Thursday tick and still roughly the same (6 runs got 869K), so we still get payouts, not nerfed to 0 (I don't see why it should be anyways).
Maybe the nerf is for 0 damage or 0 contribution to war effort, any ways there is a tiny chip out of the Indra first heart, and sure that was there before this week.
So it is def NOT indestructible, but almost impossible I suppose until only 3 controls are left.
Is there gonna be a status page for Indra from DCOH?

That was a good run, over a month of uninterrupted access!
Usual stuff - 18.07 out, GFN Steam client updated within 15 minutes, zero activity on GFN Epic which is now unlaunchable due to being the old client version.
Nvidia support ticket & "Issues" feedback item created. Now we wait (again).

Here we go again. Got my 2M (> 7M actually) yesterday so I will get the decal, but was hoping to get in for some hearts.
1st try - updated but still on 18.06.
Just tried again and Epic updated to 18.07 but cannot connect to EU West Server (on Nvidia).
I will raise a ticket and feed back later if still no joy.
@Untilting, is it Epic or Nvidia cust support ticket?
It's still an unchanged 18.06 for me (on EU West too) - are you pressing Update within the client? In the past I tried that, it ran a long update process which usually got killed by inactivity timeouts, and even if I remembered to wiggle a hat now and again to get it to complete, the game launch then fell over with errors similar to the one you describe. I think we need to get Nvidia to do their thing.
FDev told me that they push to Steam and Epic at the same time, and I never see anyone on the forums complaining that the Epic client on their local PC is not updating, so I don't think Epic is the problem - just Nvidia/GFN not detecting that an update process needs to be triggered for Epic.

Raised a ticket with NVidia cust support. When I get an email reply I will raise a 'Feedback' issue as they require that usually.
Please, please, please any one playing through GeForceNow with Epic acc for ED, raise a ticket in NVidia cust service support and they may push through the update sooner. The Titan Indra is now on 6 hearts left and we can't get in!
Guys, I click UPDATE, goes to Preparing update, synching files and then Press PLAY but get 'Cannot Connect to EU West' (or whichever server you connect to) and error code 8003001f.
This is NOT YOUR NETWORK CONNECTION, it is definitely NVidia with GeforceNow not recognising that an update is there. They have themselves stated this.
I have my 2M TAG for decal 5, but I want in on the ACTION!

Playable on Epic on GeForceNow this morning.
I have also asked if they can communicate necessary steps to get this done faster. I could not play from Friday 5th July 24!

My kid has been playing via GeForce Now and a Steam purchase and the game plays fine. It does planetary generation every single launch, which takes a minute, but besides that the gameplay is smooth.
Apparently steam has no issues, as soon as an update by FDev is released, steam downloads an update for all players. The issue is with EPIC with GFN (which I am on) and apparently, @Untilting has both, and same for him but his Steam A/c does it straight away.
Correct @Untilting ?
EDIT - it such a shame.
EDIT2 - also I am paying monthly for the 'privilege' of using GFN as my old laptop will not run it - so I do NEED GFN.
That's right. Steam client updates for ED on GFN are very fast, the game's often playable again on the new version within 15 minutes of FDev releasing it. The GFN Epic game client doesn't seem to update automatically, and it usually takes support tickets with NVidia and days of chasing to get the game playable again.
It's not so bad for me as I just use Epic for an alt - they're out in the black, so nothing's particularly time-critical. I suppose I could get a second Steam account and use that instead, but that would mean switching usernames & passwords in the Steam launcher to flip between alts, and I'm using a DS4 controller - fiddly typing is not my friend. I like it that it's just a couple of button clicks within the GFN interface to decide who I want to be for the session: Steam->Main, Epic->Alt.
Darn it, here we go again.
I will have to get 2M from Thor on Tuesday night as I do not expect to get in on EPIC with GFN from Wednesday for 2/3/4 days!!!!
That will give me the decal up to Monday night in case of it being destroyed.
Last update 18.07 stopped me playing for 4 days ^ whilst I waited for update.
(looking forward to my (FREE) PMK2 BTW)

Yeah guys game updated but no luck for epic users. Lets take the bets. I say 12 hours.
I'll go for 54 hours <bawling> I WANT MY FREE PMK2 !!!!
Anything longer than 72 hours and I will also miss out on 6th Decal if Thor goes BANG (I don't have 2MCR yet)

PS you are in luck - Thor on 4 controls after Thargsday, defences still at maximum. Looks like it's next Thursday onwards for productive bombing.
PPS have raised Nvidia ticket, created a new "Issues" feedback - usual routine.

I set bar too low...
I have raised ticket and sent feedback.
Had a reply that the 'relevant team' is looking into providing the patch update.
Judging by the times on emails He sent reply to me at 12:40pm which I received at 20:40 UK time, so possibly the customer service centre for NVidia is on West Coast US - 8 hours behind UK BST.
Any patch completed today will there fore be after 15:00 BST.
