    EA Account Server

    Anyone hear anything about when they are going to fix the damn login server? If I'm not mistaken it's been at least 2 weeks now since it started acting up.

    With 2142 it likes to boot me out in the middle of a round which just plain sucks. At least with POE2 it waits until the map is over.

    Its just random for now but has really settled down from where it was. I suspect things will get better as 1.5 gets closer

    What does the EA master server have to do with your unseemly fascination with a music genre from a bygone era?

    lol, in sof2, you could type disco in the console to disconnect from a server. So we would tell nubs to type disco in the console to see their guy do the hustle. It really never got old, but it should have...

    Re: EA Account Server

    Your rate of disconnect is directly linked to your importance at any given time, just like lag. Proceed to a flag without seeing any enemies; no lag or disconnect. Engage in combat; disconnect and lag

    I seem to most frequently get disconnected from EA master server while leading a squad.

    Well EA said they are trying to fix this...

    Our stats system provider has been experiencing an unprecedented amount of load on the system that is being alleviated as we speak. In the past 24 hours they have:

    -Quadrupled the load capacity
    -Add several more server clusters to the server farm
    -Improved back end efficiency of a number of processes
    -Added several more load balancers to evenly distribute the services.

    While we expect that these changes will largely restore connectivity and improve stability in a very short period, there may be periodic instability while we work to fully debug all of the work that has been done. Network engineers are working around the clock on these improvements and to accommodate the new load on the system.

    We appreciate your patience during this time, and assure you that the changes made this week will make for radically improved stability and scalability for your titles in the immediate future.
    I'm not sure how long this will continue, but my guess at least another week of issues before it all goes away.

    I agree with the disconnect more as SL theory.

    Re: EA Account Server

    Notice the EA excerpt talked about stat tracking. SLs are constantly earning points through the SMs actions. So, it seems logical to me that the odds of SLs losing the EA connection are far higher than the SMs thus leading to more frequent SL kicks.

    This also explains why POE2 users only get kicked at the end of the round. EA has nothing to do with the stats and is only contacted between rounds for the client verification business.
