Galaga Galaxian posted:It isn't as simple as "Add more servers!" this poo poo cracks me up, like neither this developer suddenly awash in money nor Sony who's been actively angling to get a successful live service game wouldn't immediately throw cash at server capacity right now. also just assumes all code and infrastructure scales endlessly with server capacity. anyway I'm sure they'll get it sorted, I doubt they'll get too much higher on player count than what they hit last weekend. maybe like another 10-15%? hopefully they can smooth it out this week and next

Durzel posted:XP seems a bit skewed in the game. I can do a Trivial “Brood Commander” or “Illegal Broadcast” in about 3 minutes (record so far is 02:57) including the 2 min pickup time. For that I get circa 240 XP. You've optimised the least valuable resource in the game at the expense of the most valuable ones. XP is gained far quicker than the others, when you only need to get to 20 to unlock all stratagems, which is the only gameplay it controls (you keep getting cosmetic titles). The other resource you'd be getting is req, which only unlocks stratagems. Both of these will happen pretty quickly from just playing the game normally. What needs a grind is medals and samples, which require the most resources to do and you get by going on harder difficulties and finding the POIs. So yeah XP is lopsided, but also it doesn't matter.

DarkDobe posted:a This is really the big thing. I'm level 38 at this point and if there's one thing I've learned is that you always save a little bit of stamina when running somewhere so you can Sprint into whatever patrol you just cluster bombed to shoot that little loving scavenger that was hiding behind a rock that survived the cluster bomb before it calls in reinforcements. Sometimes people I'm playing with will open up on a patrol and ask why I'm sprinting to the side, it's so I can shoot those two bugs they didn't see. And no I will not stop doing this

Finally got in and played 3 missions before crashing during a loading screen, booting me out of the game. Mission 1 was a solo bug one, very fun. Mission 2 was with some rando, blowing up bug eggs. Also very fun. Mission 3 was with two more randos, they were level 20 and I was level 2--hard mode mission. Still blowing up eggs, but was at night during a desert. Chaotic, fun, still felt useful because I prevented a squad wipe after a huge bug charged over the two higher level bros. After the game crashed I couldn't get back on for despite 10ish minutes waiting in the queue. Game's very fun, can't wait till they fix the servers.

I disconnected from an extreme mission just before we called down the Pelican and got back in just in time to drop onto the ramp and immediately evac. I’m doing my part!

Black screen somehow feels worse. I don't even get to watch the cool opening cinematic now.

Ugh, got past black screen and then past defrosting helldiver, but then I got the "Servers at capacity yada yada" thing and after the retrying counter finished, I guess it just never tried because I never saw the message again

For those who got past the black screen: do you just wait at the black screen, and if you're lucky something happens?

I didn't get to play after work because I found a dog outside and it was really cold today so I brought him inside and he was starving but he puked up the kibble I gave him so I made him a softboiled egg which he held down, then I had to watch him and keep him on a leash because he wanted to roam everywhere and get into everything and finally his owners called me back and brought him home and now I just get a black screen when I want to play gaem and its not fair

magiccarpet posted:It's something about where you are on the planet and the angle the ordinance comes in from where the star destroyer is It's where you are in the mission area. A loading tip says that the angles are more oblique the closer to the edge of the mission area the call-in is. It's not really realistic since the Destroyer is in orbit and the mission areas are like less than a kilometer, but fun! Baby T. Love fucked around with this message at 04:51 on Feb 20, 2024 |

I'm curious if something is more hosed than before now, because SteamDB shows significantly fewer players than earlier, when I got in fine, but black screen seems to still be the standard.

Maybe more Playstation players managed to get in than Steam players by luck. Or, equally likely, some people probably said "gently caress it" early since the weekend is over. I know some of my friends said they're going to lay off for a week or two to see how things progress.
