It's not the system, it's the server we're connecting to. Apparently this latest patch made the connection to the server unstable for more than a few people. I used to have zero problems with it, but this is the third time I've been dropped in 30 minutes, this is not acceptable.

Make it fourth in 35. Won't try playing again until this is fixed.

I don't think the original poster is referring to the champion / justice / west coast server drops. I just busted the original poster in another thread for whining about Tier 1 tech support doing their job properly. Since the poster didn't get the "Oh Yes Tech Support Sucks they should do something right now" replies that thread was looking for, it looks like the player is trying to advance his "I've been wronged and you know it" mantra by another method.

Well, then, what do you suggest?

what i would suggest is doing a disc clean up and defrag. then shutting down your comp, then doing a modem and router reset by unplugging all power supplies, disconnect the cable from modem to router, wait 1 min then reconnect the modem to router cable, plug in the modem then wait 30 secs, then plug in the router and wait 30 secs, then turn on your comp and see what happens.

Don't you think I did that? I'm not completely tech-illiterate. (Well, okay, 99%, but still, that's not 100! ) I connect to everything else just peachy-keen fine, but Virtue server drops me in less than 10 minutes each time. It's not my system, or my connection, I'll assure you of that.

A little premature in trumpeting that bust. The charges didn't stick.

It is eating memory for intel processors. Noticed this just a few moments ago. I was running at 46% before the patch. Now, I am running at 90% memory usage, with a 7% CPU rate.

Something is definitely wrong.

harhar, patch day.

RK,

I was on tonight in Pinnacle and elsewhere, so something in your router or firewall was updated or corrupted or something of the sort.

Edit: Just noticed you'd posted this a few other times, and started a new thread on it, to boot. Probably best if you put all your eggs in one basket, so to speak, so you're not getting the same things repeated over and over in various threads.
