What has happened to this game? I can't even place bids in WW, can't get items when i do actually get them. It's taking me hours to do something it should only take 5 minutes to do!

Are you out of sync?

Not a clue, everything's fine on my end.


They ALL float down here. When you're down here with us, you'll float too!

More specifics please. Vague rants without details won't help get your problems fixed.

well on Justice people have been complaining about stuff all day. Can't add global invites, having to click on items 100 times to get off WW, or the bid disappearing altogether, then you place another and end up buying 3 of an item..

Is it just another issue of problems on Justice? If so, i can move my stuffs to a better server.

Instead of clicking "100 times", why don't you just click ONCE, and then go grab a drink or something, take a pee and then see what the result is once you get back.

You know that clicking "100 times" doesn't make it go any faster right?

If you have a reproducible issue, and you can explain in detail the process to make this issue reoccur, then the devs can look at the issue and resolve it, once they can reproduce it.

I'm not clicking 100 times, actually. I click "get the item". It disappears like i got it, but don't show up. Or i place an item for sell, set the price, then it disappears back into my tray. Like i said, it's not just me. I have been reading local chats of people complaining about it, also. Perhaps, Justice is just a sucky server atm.

I've been on it for 5 years and it just seems to be getting worse. When i ask the forums, noone else on diff servers seem to be experiencing the same issues.

Just logged into Justice and tried a couple different characters, and I did see a little bit of lag of hesitancy or latency...not sure what the correct term would be. Wentworths was empty, and there seemed to be no other issues but purchases and bids would occasionally hang for up to 30 seconds (mental count, not timed...therefore likely closer to 20-25) I noticed no lag in travel, loading, or zoning and the synch command didn't relieve the issue. Next step...try a different server.

Test 2. Went to Victory and didn't see anything even vaguely similar. Weird.

Yea, im not having lag issues in gameplay, BB. But thanks for taking time in your day to test. I sent a petition. Glad to know not everyone likes to just post snarky remarks.

The hesitation isnt too bad, but the bids and buys disappearing is irritating. I posted a couple buys and nada so i posted again, and whala! now i gots 2. That can get expensive when buying Posi's. lol.

I've noticed increasing lag while using WW lately myself. It comes & goes.

not sure what you are refering to, I am red side the BM is almost empty of low level set io's and recipes but other than that the performance of the market is fine.


 

Posted

I'm having similar difficulty with the markets on well, also on Justice. It's not just you, it might be a server problem.


 

Posted

I've had the exact same problem the last couple weeks, but this is on Pinnacle.


 

Posted

I actually crashed for the first time in months while trying to access WW on Virtue. Given that the markets are a separate database/server, I have to wonder if they're having problems with it(them). By the way, has anyone noticed a difference between red/blue?


 

Posted

The only time I see this is during peak times when there are a lot of people trying to use the market. The number of people around you can also make it worse. That's why I always run to KR during the peak times because that is almost always the slowest WW. There are times when the market server is so laggy that I don't bother to even try. I just come back later.

I use the one in Talos because its not too populated and close to SG base. Im not sure of peak times but even early am here (east coast) would be very early am on the west, and it doesnt seem to matter. Still really laggy.


 

Posted

That's odd. It's the fastest for me at those times. It's possible that you have a problem between your PC and the server that is slowing things down.

I tend to play the market on every US server and I have this problem everywhere in WW since maybe one month back.

This is not a client issue. There's a general awareness of this problem, at least on Justice*. It's only started around Thursday or Friday last week. WW (not the Black Market) is incredibly poorly responding. It says it takes things or gives them to you, then later rejects them. (If you have the market messages in your chat tabs, the giveaway is that there's no message for what you just did.) Every now and then, it does the action after a delay, but most of the time it simply fails to actually happen, which is incredibly frustrating.

I hope that this morning's maintenance does something to it.


* The markets are cross server, but it's possible this problem is limited to one server based on however the shards connect to the market server.

I've been experiencing this on Justice as well. The game isn't lagging otherwise, my netgraph doesn't show any spikes, but everything I try to do at the market takes 2 or 3 attempts before it will go through. It's very strange.
