Server's 9 days old with 5K queue and they ask for a transfer to a server that is 2 days old with no queue... /facedesk

If I were in charge I'd perma ban any account who's on the server 24/7 - account sharers and AFK cheaters. The people in charge here are amateurs, they don't even restart the server frequently to unload the AFKers, Elysium's been online for 17h+ now. This is really bad. I'm totally turned off right now, can't be bothered with this constant 6 hour queue server filled with cheaters or starting on another one where everyone's already in T2. I'm out. I'll come back if they open a new server fast. Enjoy the -1 to the queue...

As of 1 hour ago, I can no longer connect to your website or log into the game. I live in Spain. If I use VPN through the US everything works fine. I've never had this before. When I try to access the website I get an instant message from firefox saying it can't access your site. When I try to log into the game I also get instantly disconnected, like there was no connection at all. Anyone have any idea what's going on?

Thanks for advice guys, it all works now :)

Well I can connect to the game again from my normal IP but still not to this site. I changed browser to chrome from firefox, same result. The only way I can access this site is if I use a vpn. Will try the DNS thing.

Earlier today I ate a 10k queue in 5 hours , entered the character creation screen, customized my toon, clicked "CREATE" and BOOM!... disconnected. I quit the client , restarted fast to skip the Q thanks to the grace period but BOOM!...couldn't get passed "AUTHENTICATION". I was so pissed I wanted to come flame the devs on the forums and later uninstall...but couldn't do that either, the forum was too laggy. Yep they should restart more often on overloaded fresh servers to get rid of the AFK cheaters. This Q is going down WAY slower than it was on the Nost servers during the holidays.

First of all congratulations on the success of the new server, I don't know where all these people came from but from one day to the next you doubled your player base. It seems the login server is being DDoSed however, I haven't been able to login since yesterday. I bet it's the chinese gold sellers that are doing it to give themselves a head start. You might consider temporarily disabling VPNs and blocking chinese IPs to fix that. Also with the queues we have, players are going to start cheating the AFK system to leave their toon on the server 24/7. I suggest you restart the server every 6 hours, that should take care of that. And if these 2 things don't change anything, you might want to temporarily deactivate all accounts that were made in 2017, I bet most new players created their account a few days before the launch. I know none of these measures are at all popular but I suppose doing something radical is better than having your player base type in their password over and over again until they go mad or leave for another game. Good luck.

The login server was getting DDoSed by the gold sellers who were trying to log in with their bots. But now it seems ok, I just logged in normally and ended up in a 9k queue, woot!

Not true. Yesterday there was a 12k queue on Elysium and at the same time both Nost servers had the usual amount of players, PvE full and PvP on 10k. So according to these number only 2k players (4k max if you count the primetime queue) moved from Nost PvP to Elysium and practically none from Nost PvE. Between the people in game, in the Q and peeps not even able to login I estimate there were around 20K players playing or trying to play on Elysium yesterday. So that's around 15K that didn't come from Nost servers. You're right that the Q will lessen over time but mostly because people will get tired of not being able to play, not because the shiny new effect will wear away They could totally open another server and all 4 would be guaranteed max capacity.

I see on the server status page they moved Nost PvP (12k cap) to the left, Nost PvE (6k) in the middle and Elysium to the right. I hope this doesn't mean Elysium will only have a 6k cap. Does anyone know the cap? Has it been revealed?

People who get hacked are gold buyers or account sharers 99% of the time, I have very little sympathy for them.

The lvl 60s that do nothing but gank lowbies do it because they lack the balls and skill to PvP vs equal level opponents. Since they can't beat other lvl 60s, they kill lowbies to get their victory thrills. The troll explanation is nonsense because the gankers never actually see the lowbies get upset. A true troll revels in the anger of his victims but here, cross faction communication is disabled so you can't see your victim express his anger. They say they're trolls because they can't admit to themselves that they are total losers. The truth is these ppl are zero skill frustrates who get kicks out of winning fights they can't lose, like the 5 year old who gets an ego boost from killing ants.

What makes you think downloading a file from a torrent is less safe than downloading a file from a WoW pirate server website? There's nothing inherently unsafe about the torrent tech, it's all about what you download - same as with direct downloads from websites. If you get the torrent link from here then the file you will download is exactly the same as the one you would get from the direct download link, the same file we all have.

Ok so I guess you're gonna start low and work your way up if needed. Thanks

Of course, this is a private server. Blizzard prosecuting is just one of the many things that could lead to the server shutting down. Progress isn't important, having fun while you're playing is what's important. At least this is the mind frame I advise you to have when playing on private servers, that way if everything goes poof you'll stay with the memory of all the fun you had instead of QQing over everything you've lost.

Rushing to 60 will just burn you out for nothing. The only way you can compete with the no life rushers is if you share your account with someone so your toon is leveling 24/7, that's what they do. But that's usually illegal so I wouldn't recommend it (not that anyone's ever been banned for it in any game I've played). The only valid reason I can think of to level faster than normal is to stay ahead of the masses, so you don't have to wait 3mins between each mob you kill. But forget about reaching 60 in less than a month, there's no point to that at all, the high lvl zones will be completely dead with only a few no life guilds sticking to themselves, you won't have anyone to do 5 mans with, BGs will be dead, AH will be dead etc.

Not really hard, they just have no escape tools like most other classes so when u aggro something you weren't planning to it usually means death.

Learn2read bro. I didn't say they were morally equal I said they both obeyed the same law of supply and demand.

Yes absolutely. How could you even question that? There are people who consume conscientiously and never buy clothes that were made by children, or ride bicycles so they never have to buy petrol, or stop eating meat so they don't participate in the brutal slaughter of animals etc. "Demand creates supply" don't tell me you've never heard that before. If you buy some shit that was made unethically you're directly responsible for it, not indirectly. That's a fact. In this case, if nobody ever bought any gold from these chinese farmers then they wouldn't be here with their toxic spam. It's ENTIRELY the buyers fault if they are here. Same with prostitution, child porn and every other vomitous human service that exists exclusively to satisfy a demand.

Actually cheating IS a sin. I'm not a religious person but I know that much. Buying Gold from a 3rd party in an MMO that forbids it is cheating whichever way you look at it.

You're a little simple minded aren't you ? It's called figurative speech, I don't literally wish them to commit suicide. Interestingly enough you're wishing me the same thing so you're accusing me of something you're doing yourself. That's called being a total fucking moron. I'll leave it at that. Have a good day.

What advice?

Teenager? I'm 41. Based on your name and the way your express yourself I'm quite sure I'm old enough to be your father.

Because narrow minded defeatists like yourself abound. Your argument is akin to saying: -it's useless to vote because we're already sure who will win. -it's pointless to fight against human trafficking because it will always exist. -why bother reducing CO2 emissions when we aren't even certain it will slow global warming. Why try anything at all, ever if we're such fucking losers that we're always so certain the outcome will be negative ? As for the other ppl QQing in this thread, the way I see it these idiots buying gold are low life scum and borderline criminals, I don't give 2 shits that their private emails have been made public. How fucking dumb must you be to buy gold from chinese thugs using your main email anyways?? If you're that thick you deserve to be ridiculed and harassed online, hopefully enough that you'll jump out the window before you had a chance to reproduce, for the good of the species.
