What is the point of large servers if they wont work?

ceiling cat · 09-02-2011, 03:40 PM

Spent the last hour in 100 slot servers waiting to fill up and load only to see them crash. If ARMA2 cant handle 100 people on a server, why did the PR team not put a limit?
What is the point? I would rather play on a 40 player server and ACTUALLY PLAY, instead of spending the evening betting on the vague chance that a 100 player server would load.
Couldn't your QA department find that out a bit earlier? Why bother with a server size that won't work?

ARMA2 cant handle 200 players pressing join in nearly the same instance. 100 players are more then fine enough if there were not such a big pressure on the servers from other people pressing join aswell.

And your infact wrong in another thread where you say no one is interested in creating a PR server even if they have to agree its just that the number of servers in the beta is low because only some trusted communities got to be Beta servers for the time being. there was 30+Pms about server files to UK force if I am not mistaken the day before release

This ^^^

Everyone is trying to join the same server all at the same time, the server gets overwhelmed and crash.

It will sort itself out overtime.

When people all join in at the same time, causes Desync, and lag.

And I just got an unauthorized server warning on a TG one. GREAT job PR team. After a long wait I finally got into one and your failed license system backfires and prevents me from playing.

There is still issues with players joining with the wrong configuration (not having Combined Ops) which is causing massive issues with the servers...

Hopefully this will be solved as people start to actually read these forums correctly and have the intelligence to find out what they have.... sorry if sound harsh but I can't even get on my own server.....

illidur · 09-02-2011, 03:45 PM

more servers = not as many joining at once = no deync = obvious.

ceiling cat · 09-02-2011, 03:47 PM

I have combined ops and everything properly installed. I mean why did you guys put in this DRM system that prevents me from playing on a server because its "not authorized"? Seriously you emply DRM that does not work properly.
And if arma2 cant handle 100 people joining at once, SKIP ARMA2 PR then (at least on that scale) and use a game that can handle it (Bf2)

Because this is a BETA !!

This many players - Not anticipated - Unrespectful ADHD kids complaining and crying = I dont think i should do a single thing but to watch your world crash down around you.

Seriously kid, calm down. More servers are coming online. Too many people are NOT READING The instructions and joining the servers without the correct things (like CO or correct patch) and causing servers to crash etc

I found this sentence quite funny and since this is a war game forum I will put it here. No offense to the french just a good laugh.
