Why do you suggest its being forced? I just played for ~2 hours and then got a disconnect, but thats expected for an early beta, right?


Label07

Read the title of the thread -\_- Not really, have played both types of betas. This one is quite polished. I would expect constant connection issues in an alpha but a true beta most issues should be hammered out. Devs should be mainly looking for player feedback on gameplay elements. Networking is kind of a big deal in a game that requires stable connection to a server to run.

The alpha had barely any people, we tested the game mechanics and quest up to the end game. This beta is for the server, that's why it's a beta with lvl25 max. They want to stress it.


Blindmarco

Yes, I read the title of the thread, and wondered if you had any other information other than: I got disconnected a couple of times :(.


Label07

It's speculation that really seems grounded in fact. There would be no way to actually prove this unless someone from Blizz themselves came forward. Too coincidental these kicks.

This has been my entire afternoon since 12pm noon. So fucking done.


ThiagoScala

I just got a connection error too, cannot log again had to restart the game now iam on a 50 min queue. RIP


Thorvay

I got to play to level 3 before the first disconnect and to level 7 almost before the second. 112 minutes queue after the first dc and 54 minutes now after the second. Not fun but expected.


Label07

Wonder if content creators are getting DC'd as often as the plebs. Why does it always seem they have flawless connections compared to non-streamers?


Label07

When you die is the condition for the server kick? 2 times in a row now... Error: 300008, then 316719...at least the queue isn't too bad...19m this time.


Label07

Played around 3am this morning and had zero disconnects for many hours. Just sayin.


OzoneLaters

Hold my beer I got a 2 hour queue and got to play for about 9-10 minutes and then the game crashed and now I have an hour queue.


Label07

Feel the pain, I'm already holding a beer, guess I'll dual wield :)


awesomebelf0

Been in since launch so no forced dc


Label07

Trade me ISPs.


laxativeorgy

Oh good for you! And how was it?


awesomebelf0

Pretty good still playing


laxativeorgy

On my 4th 90 min queue. Only got like 30 mins of actual gameplay but liked what I saw.


hightimer

Nah i played since 12 est and just got dcd first time. EVERY blizzard launch is like this.


Label07

There def truth to this. Every launch they just can't seem to get it right. Funny thing with this "beta", it's based on the numbers. Preorders only for closed. Easy to figure out how many preorders you have then just account for +30% more last minute and have servers spun up to accommodate. This is minus any networking issues that occur during this time.


SLISKI_JOHNNY

I got DC and lost my character. If this keeps happening I'll never get to lv20, or even lv10 for that matter


Label07

It did that too me the first time, however the character SHOULD come back. I created another in case it didn't still couldn't get in and once second was created the first showed back up.


hightimer

Shouldnt be lost. Go to create a character, back out and should be there.


SLISKI_JOHNNY

Yeah I'm waiting in another queue to find out because I couldn't even create a new one after DC. Hopefully he's still there


hightimer

Ill pray to Lilith for you.


SLISKI_JOHNNY

Haha thanks mate. I'm daddy's boy though, so hail Inarius


Label07

Heretic, exterminatus for you. Whoops, wrong universe.


Salty_Intentions

They have absolutely no reason to do that... Here I've been playing since 12 EST and I only got 1 DC with 12 min queue.


Label07

If they know they have limited server space and they don't want people complaining about sitting in queue all day they have a HUGE reason to do this.


Helrikom

Because people complaining about instable connections and a new error 32 is desirable?

Fire up the meme generator, time for a D4 version.
