[jiminycracken]

Ugh servers still down for Canadians?? Why did I get excited for a beta lol

They're down for everyone

 

[Blackthorn]

Lost connection

Did manage to figure out that if you're suffering from stuttering with vsync enabled on Nvidia, disabling in game vsync and switching to windowed mode gives you a tear free and mostly stutter free game. Spread the word.

 

[sflufan]

You know who is probably not very pleased by this? EA.

Even though they really have nothing to do with it, I bet they're convinced that they'll get blamed somehow after the SimCity and BF4 debacles.

 

[Clawww]

I'm getting sleepy I've been wanting to play all evening @_@

I'd be OK if I didn't get a taste of it last night but I really want to get back in

 

[Woo-Fu]

You know who is probably not very pleased by this? EA.

Even though they really have nothing to do with it, I bet they're convinced that they'll get blamed somehow after the SimCity and BF4 debacles.

Why should they expect anything else? They're the publisher, the buck stops there.

 

[GlenChivas]

Yeah but these are Microsoft's servers...

 

[Struct09]

In on US West Xbone!

 

[Woo-Fu]

Yeah but these are Microsoft's servers...

So? EA chose to use those servers. EA chose to do business with Microsoft. EA's decision, EA's responsibility.

If I hire you to mow my lawn and your shitty lawnmower breaks down am I going to blame you or am I going to blame whomever made the lawnmower? I'm going to blame you because it is your responsibility.

 

[Megasoum]

Yeah but these are Microsoft's servers...

And it's Respawn's code that is crashing those server so in the end it's everybody's fault.

 

[sflufan]

And it's Respawn's code that is crashing those server so in the end it's everybody's fault.

And it's Valve's fault for creating the Source Engine!

To summarize, we can blame:

- EA
- Microsoft
- Respawn
- Valve

 

[WonkyPanda]

It's a no-go, bros. This is how it looks on my HD5000

That's what gamers nexus was getting on their HD4000.

 

[BY2K]

And it's Respawn's code that is crashing those server so in the end it's everybody's fault.

Everybody loses!

 

[RK9039]

And it's Valve's fault for creating the Source Engine!

And it's Kojima's fault for making these damn Metal Gears in the first place! dammit.

 

[Megasoum]

And it's Valve's fault for creating the Source Engine!

To summarize, we can blame:

- EA
- Microsoft
- Respawn
- Valve

You're on something there... It's Gabe's revenge for not putting the game on steam!

 

[hawk2025]

Everybody's guilty!


I connected about half an hour ago, played two matches with a fuckton of lag, and now can't connect again (west coast here).

 

[Mechazawa]

And it's Valve's fault for creating the Source Engine!

To summarize, we can blame:

- EA
- Microsoft
- Respawn

Hey, id doesn't get some free fucking pass here. Id Tech was the base for goldsrc.

THANKS ID.

 

[Zeppeli]

It's a no-go, bros. This is how it looks on my HD5000



That's what gamers nexus was getting on their HD4000.

You just can't appreciate a good 4,500 FOV.

 

[Drake]

And it's Valve's fault for creating the Source Engine!

To summarize, we can blame:

- EA
- Microsoft
- Respawn

I'm pretty sure we can blame Obama too. So:

- EA
- Microsoft
- Respawn
- Valve
- Obama

 

[theRizzle]

Yeah but these are Microsoft's servers...

This is true, and I'm not sure how much blame EA (or anyone) deserves in having server issues in a Beta. It's a Beta. If this was launch day, it would be completely different.

However, I wonder if there was any sort of discourse between EA and Microsoft about server readiness or potential issues or anything like that. Also interesting to me is how much money this cost EA in technical support man hours alone dealing with people who had messed up CD-Keys or whatever. It's probably an insignificant sum, but I still find minutiae like that interesting.

 

[Blackthorn]

And it's Valve's fault for creating the Source Engine!

To summarize, we can blame:

Sorry guys, it's actually my fault for playing the beta.

 

[sflufan]

And it's Kojima's fault for making these damn Metal Gears in the first place! dammit.

OK, so now we have in the "Titanfail Blame Game":

- EA
- Microsoft
- Respawn
- Valve
- Kojima

Anyone else?

 

[BondFancy]

And it's Mary Maxwell Gate's fault for giving birth to this whole abomination!!

 

[jiminycracken]

And it's Valve's fault for creating the Source Engine!

To summarize, we can blame:

- EA
- Microsoft
- Respawn
- Valve

And John Carmack for creating FPSs in the first place!

 

[catmario]

Is PC server not working for now?

I want to play this at PC Cafe. I have to decide.

 

[beast786]

it's a beta. Why are people getting upset? it's free and a beta. if you want a perfect game than wait for a release date.

 

[GlenChivas]

I just don't think you squarely lay the blame at EA's feet for this and it kills me to even type that.

 

[GashPrex]

This is a beta - the whole point is to make things crash. Why are people "blaming" companies? If you pay 60 for the game and its fucked, then you complain.

This isn't some best buy beta bullshit

 

[Xyber]

And it's Valve's fault for creating the Source Engine!

To summarize, we can blame:

- EA
- Microsoft
- Respawn
- Valve

No, Source engine is a good thing. Then respawn did a bunch of bad things to it and now it runs like shit* on even the latest hardware.

*Not really like shit, but quite bad for something based on Source.

I got in on Xbone version East server a few minutes ago, I'm doing the training now.

It's true that it's a beta.

However:

- We are less than a month from launch.
- Respawn still needs to work on the framerate.
- Respawn is still shooting for 900p.
- AND they have to figure out all of the server issues.

All in about three weeks.

Maybe the server issues are all in Microsoft's court, though.

[jediyoshi]

So? EA chose to use those servers. EA chose to do business with Microsoft. EA's decision, EA's responsibility.

You realize the game didn't just, exist, and then they chose to go with Microsoft, right?

 

[Atilac]

The servers down? I'm getting a message that they are down. East coast PC version here.

 

[Smokey]

it's a beta. Why are people getting upset? it's free and a beta. if you want a perfect game than wait for a release date.

Yep. It's usually why I don't mess with betas anymore and just wait for final product.

In the end it's good that it's like this now. Hopefully they'll be prepared in March for final release.

 

[polyh3dron]

I guess the power of Microsoft's cloud is finite after all.

Shocking.

Thanks Obama

 

[Woo-Fu]

You realize the game didn't just, exist, and then they chose to go with Microsoft, right?

That is beside the point, the responsibility still lies with EA. Kind of mind-boggling that people want to give EA a pass, of all companies in this industry.

 

[-MD-]

if you want a perfect game than wait for a release date.

If only.

 

[TimeEffect]

Did they say the server issues were a "bug"?

What does that mean?

Seems PC East is the only major server awaiting Titanfall.

Wii Fit hasn't been blamed for anything in a while.
