We are continuing to work overnight to address issues preventing the game services from being available. If something changes overnight we will let you know, otherwise we will be back in touch in the morning. As to the cause, we have significant hardware that is not able to communicate properly, and we've engaged technical operations folks all day and night here to work on it at the data center.

Thanks Cordo, nightmare scenario for you all I'm sure.

Knowing what it's like working on a serious issue till it's fixed. I appreciate all the hard work that will be going on right now. Best of luck and hope for a successful resolution soon.

30 pages of panicky whining about the game being down would suggest otherwise?

It would suggest irrationality.

It would suggest irrationality.

Have either of you even read the thread? It's quite literally pages of people making jokes and having a laugh at the situation. Hardly people with their hair on fire.

could it be related to this case ?

For the last three weeks or so, me and my alt accounts, and friends I play with, keep getting randomly booted from the game.

If you would actually read the forum you would see that it’s mostly just having offgame fun with the same community

Got through half the thread, personally. And noticed dozens of others (surprised it wasn't hundreds). Of course, the Steam forums for DDO are even worse. And about half the posts I saw were panicking, while a quarter were mocking those panicking.

It would still be better if the offline fun didn't take place on the same channel by publishing official statements.

 

[Toede]

I guess our definition of panicking is wildly different. If you'd like to see a real display of panicking read any of the multitude of tumble threads in recent days.

That’s quite fair. Could someone state something officially, please?

And tons of self deprecating which is good to see

What statement are you looking for? Go to the data center in northern New Jersey and report from the spot. Live, local, late-breaking.

Do you mean like this:

Or just in general like I officially want a pizza.

 

[Frieling Slyhand]

Official: we will announce something official when we know something official.

Definitely the pizza

Someone in the Northern New Jersey area should go to the data center and report from outside with a live action video news team.
And post it here.
Because some of y'all are so obsessed with this, would that even help?

Panicking of cheaters…

I think you are reading into it what you want to read into it.
