No, I have the problem too. I was in a galaxy hit the warpgate, then bam. Crash.
After that I couldn't reconnet.

It's clearly an NC conspiracy. We were kicking their ass.

they install patches before you start up the game, its probably that they are working on stuff and forgot to put up the "Down" alert on the world chooser thing

DAMN

Ok here are the highlights of my CSR help session on chat. None of them are direct quotes as i did not save it, But here we go!!!


Ok in the begining befoe we are connected i provide all my info including connection type, vid card, all the basic good stuff.

So he asks me for internet connection type. I respond: Cable Modem. He pauses and then asks if i have router and what kind. I say "yes" (as if i would leave my ass open by not having one). He says that Everquest does not support routers. I explain that i am asking about Planetside (as earlier stated in the form with my basic info) He basically tellls me that no MMORPG or MMOFPS support routers but he has a type of possible fix.

I say ok then he points me to an updated driver page. I keep pretty current on drivers for stuff, but the new ATI one slid under my radar so i start DLing it.

He asks if there is anything else he can help me with. I say yes, can you tell me whether the Planetside servers are up and working?

He responds after 2 mins "I was just informed that the Planetside servers are currently down"

I ask if there is any timeframe, he says sry no ETA.

Oh well.



But the moral of the story is WHY THE FRIG DOES PS NOT SUPPORT ROUTERS?? and i know that most people are not using dial up and another well known fact: you would almost have to be MOTARDED to not use a router!

Bump.


btw, if this was supposed to answer my question in the lounge, it didnt

[Phaden]

To answer the loung question in a 2 part series

First the server up and downs are sposed to be kept current on the launchpad after you sign in.

To link to it, i would save it as a desktop shortcut or something like that. Just create shortcut, and then copy the address from page, then paste in properties.

btw, i have no idea what computer knowledge you have, so take no offense

[sutserikeru]

i know shit about computer hardware/software, but i know a great deal about HTML and a little on CGI... anywhoo
that answered my question a little bit. what i wanted to know is...

are they server up and down alerts updated automaticly by a bot or something or is it done by hand?

if its done by a bot, then youd think there be a code for it.
if its done by hand, then...
