Anyone get on there yet or is this bad boy still locked?

Mastachief · 2013-10-23, 09:28 PM

Still locked for me

Kalee J · 2013-10-23, 09:51 PM

I promised myself I wouldn't cry.

Jaybonaut · 2013-10-23, 09:35 PM

I doubt it will be unlocked for us today; I could be wrong.

ChipMHazard · 2013-10-23, 09:53 PM

I'm guessing that we'll be hearing when it's open to the public again.

Calista · 2013-10-23, 09:55 PM

Well it's just 7:00 out west so they will probably have it open sometime tonight their time anyway.

The good news is there was only 1 major problem, everything else seems to be working smoothly on the Test server. As I write this I can hear Elam and Production talking about working really late tonight to resolve this, trying to figure out someway somehow to get the build up tonight (Midnight PST *google it* or later). They want this build up badly and are very mad that it isn't up now. Let's make sure we remember these guys and not get too upset at them.

Thanks.

@cammy What happened, you get banned for something?

Also yes, thank you for the update Clegg

IT'S SO MUCH SMOOTHER. i did not try without smoothing, however, so i guess smoothing was the game changer.
i think that i got more FPS than i would usually (we fought at the crown), however i am not sure. i got about 45 fps on average, on a 48+ vs 25-48 battle at the crown. i need more testing, but i'd say that is an awesome. as i guess, i'd say i might have averaged 35 on live.

also, you can alt-tab without crashing. not to mention, loading is much faster, and also the UI has a bit of a change when it comes to health indicators, when you kill someone, and whatnot.

edit: but for some reason i d/ced and now the server is unavailable.

why Clegg, why? i was just about to get the PDW and shove it up the VS's ass

edit 2: also there were some instances where the FPS counter was not telling me if i was CPU bound or GPU bound at all (not during fights of course). interesting.

EDIT3:

Thanks for the late hour work guys, on my end I feel like I should slow a bit and test things thorougly before expressing a misjudged opinion, in fact I've already done so, my first login seen around 5 crashes due to altab / altenter, changing settings, guess I'll make a file convalidation and try again with more patience

Clegg by any chance did you change some terrain around Indar? I remember reading you were working on West highland checkpoint or something that would go live with Optimization. Am I wrong?
I'd love more cover, Esamir is amazing <3
