Server Restart

  • we just had a server restart on are server and only gave us 10 mins to get to a port to sell 32 chests and we was no way near a port so we lost everything, is there something that can we done to condensate us for a lost exp and chests, and also can server restart be made longer to a 15 to 20 mins warning as 10 mins dose not give high end players time to sell

  • Short answer: nope, no condensation. Also, no compensation.

    Carrying around that much loot at once always carries an inherent risk. Were you around during the Allmondbeard days? Disconnects were much worse, much more loot was lost, no compensation.

    Live and learn, arrr!

  • Same thing happened to me last night, and it's happened to others in the past.

    Sadly, if the server is borked, they need to restart it. It's not a want of Rare it's a need. That said... I was about 45 min to an hour in to my Athenas when we got the message... "10 Minutes"... we sold what we had and swapped servers after the restart but still...

    Can't they simply migrate us? Allow us to 'save' our voyage completion and pick up where we left off even if loot must be sold or lost before shut down? Give earlier warnings (not possible in some cases I realize) so we're not suddenly hit with a mere 10 minutes? Anything... Granted I lose nothing assuming the time window allows me to sell my loot. At most I lose time and voyage cost which isn't enough to worry about... and I did simply swap servers after the restart and played a short time before plopping another Athena's on the table..

    But really?

    I mean really?

    Just smacks of laziness or shortsightedness lack of give a hoot when things like this happen, even if it's not.

  • I'm a new player and we did the voyage that gets us the key to the secret chamber, when we started looting the chamber "server restart in 15min" occured. we got +-15 chests to carry to the boat so we didn't manage to do it. also we lost the loot that we had on the boat from before.

    also "15 min" is a lie, it came down to "10min" in 1minute and then started to counting down correctly basically if the counter started 3 min earlier (real 15min before restart) we wouldn't open the chamber and we'd sell the key with already collected loot.

    Fix this with compensation or AUTOSELL the loot on the boat with emmissary multipliers....

  • @kapetan-metla this is a 3 year old thread man...

  • @kapetan-metla autosell is a no from me...compensate also...it's update day today...everybody should know the servers are going down

  • Ahoy maties!
