No Dataloss???

Sorry but that doesnt make any sense at all.

Our character data is saved already and unlocking it is literally changing a variable that has no other way of changing other than when the gameserver says you disconnected.

Meaning if a gameserver crashes while you are connecting it isnt gonna flag back to being not connected.

Its literally junior dev crap and its supposed to be found through bug testing.

Did they crash their servers internally while joining? Clearly not… one would think that would be how you test for this… pretty easily.

Server restart of the main server would set is to be logged out… all of us.

No one can lose data this way.

Unless I am gravely mistaken, I don’t think the server restart caused the issue at all. That’s not what the post you quoted said at least.

He said the data loss happened to the players experiencing the problem when they restarted the servers, not that restarting them caused the issue in the first place.

67

Imagine restarting servers with 0 warning and expecting everything to go swimmingly kekw

68

This is why they need a “realm down” message to all players, to kick them off in time to “cleanly” close databases.

Saying they may be fixed in a couple hours means we have no f***ing clue what’s going on and need to buy some time. Restarting server does not cause the “stuck in game” issue as I had the issue hours before the 1st server reset.

Its happened to me 3 times now but my friend has been playing the entire time.

Then my original point stands. They update us on twitter infinitely more than on the forums.

71

yet been a few hours and i am still unable to play the game they created

3-month ladders in order to align with quarterly investor reports… Sorry to OffTopic, but everytime the corporate side nonsense shows up, I can’t hold myself.

73

Yesterday was rocky in the beginning. But haven’t had one issue today at all. Totally smooth.

74

Old news…seen the post explaining…its very big but i can summarize…”we are working on it” with lots of bullcrap in between

75

Can I have your copy of the game instead :frowning_face:

76

I thought the same thing this morning until there was an impromptu server restart. that’s seemingly what’s preventing everyone that was playing at that time to get back in 5 hours later…

It’s been up for a couple hours now.

Edit:

Its interesting blizzard has customer support going through forums deleting threads about the issue instead of fixing the issue.

80

I have not been playing for ours after I got kicked out…

81

Perhaps you misunderstood what he said then.

He said the blue post should be up shortly. Not that the issue would be fixed shortly.

The Forum Support team is in Texas at the office there. They have nothing to do with the servers, server fixes, or game patches. They are a totally different team.

I assume they are removing duplicates of the same issues - issues that are acknowledge in the latest post today sticked at the top of General.

Flooding the forums with 200 different “my char is locked” threads only drowns out other valid player issues people need to bring up.

If people want to post, they can add to one of the large ongoing issue threads on their specific topic.

Keep in mind, forum posts are not tickets. They don’t get someone to look at your account. Removing duplicates has zero bearing on the issue being fixed.
