Mega Hart Drop killed SOE and login servers.


Looks like it. Since we had the 300 + people loaded on the hart, when we got to the map screen, everyone who was on the hart crashed out, and the login servers were down. Ouch

Damn! Never thought I'd see 300+ people try to HART drop, and I guess that SOE didn't think so either. To bad you had to kill everyone though

HART's are supposed to hold an infinite # of people within the limits of the servers. However, most people find other means to get to where they are going. Some run.

Has ANYONE gotten a pic of the riders that grip the bottom plates of those HART ships? I swear they are riding those things on the outside....

I still don't really understand the hart drop system... What are the limits to where you can drop? I've heard people say you can only hart drop into your sphere of influence, and i've seen other people say that it's possible to drop behind enemy lines.

You can only drop on continents where your empire owns the dropship center, and then you just drop wherever you like on that continent I think.

I got through fine. I decided not to take my Reaver and to take part in the Largest HART Drop Ever (tm). I got through fine. The target was some facility on a desert continent that we (the NCs) held, but was under attack. So many of us landed that I never saw combat. For me it was like a D-Day parachute drop minus the AA, MG42s, and Tom Hanks. Ok, nobody shot at me.

Warping takes you to a gate, whereas HART drops put you anywhere on the map that's outside of a Sphere of Influence. The Spheres are small. It was a 15 second walk to the base.
