Random server instability and DC's caused by BLIZZARD are the reason server pops are dwindling

When it gets to the point you can barely get proper UBRS runs and stuff, you know the server is on life support basically. It’s impossible to play with folks when they walk into a building and all the sudden DC and die before they can even log back in from an issue that came from the server and not the client. It keeps the population low already and kills the morale for folks to actually go again…since going again means spending dozens of hours spent on a toon you’re sending directly to dreamsycthe anyway.

Just an irritated rant on the disconnects going on and that have been going on even outside of DDOS and other nonsense you’d thing we’d have some support for. Seeing blizzard screw over folks with the random ban and stuff. It’s just a headache since I love HC, and disappointing that I don’t want to play other toons outside of my main because of the acceptance that some server issue will kill the alts 60 hours in.

DCs and so on are nothing new. I have played No Death challenges since 2012, and DCs were always the biggest killer - ranking just above, “Just one more-itits”.
What IS new, is that the Hardcore servers are the least stable of them all.

Yea, DC deaths have always been a thing, its the just the frequency of DC’s caused by blizzard themselves is so much higher that really brings morale down. Cause there really is nothing you can do, getting better internet or a better computer doesn’t do anything when its on blizzards end.

Exactly this … and why are DCs more frequent on the HC servers? It should be the most stable of the bunch.
