Klients - why isn't it on a different server?
Posted: Tue Jul 19, 2005 1:01 am
Ok. Back in the day, all throughout beta and most of retail, Klients was the first stop as soon as the game crashed. Lately, let's be honest, the servers have had much less crashes. However, it's no less frustrating, because there is no way to get any information from nevrax.
Since they have moved Klients on to the same server as the game shard, it is always down when the game is down. This would be ok if as soon as the game went down someone posted on the forums to let us know what's going on, but to my knowledge that has never happened. Last night the server was down, I believe, for around two hours. It seemed that I was one of the few people who actually waited (with no word from nevrax) to get back in to the game, the result being that there was hardly anyone there when we got back in.
It seems to me that it was hardly be a Herculean effort to put a simple program like Klients onto a seperate server. So why is this not done? Is it simply to give the dev's some quiet while they try to work out what's wrong, despite the fact that the community is left entirely in the dark while these issues are resolved?
Wondering if anyone else shares my frustration with this lack of information-sharing...
