I just got disconnected from 3 games. I had a massive lag freeze(mechs running in place) and then disconnected. I haven't seen a disconnect in a long time. Also during one of the lag spikes I got killed, wouldn't re-spawn, and got kicked for idling.

 

One of the servers were LA and I believe another one was Chicago or Kansas.

 

Anyone else having server issues?

 

Also why is Kansas give a worse ping in general than New Jersey when I'm playing from Oregon.

I've had multiple server crashes this week where it happened to all players, not just me. Then the login server would not work. I've seen all the servers in the US disappear and the EU. I had 3 games this week where I could only use 1 of my mechs. It said all the others were "test mechs" and the "test" period was over. Hmm I don't any ANY test mechs. I own all of them. On one acct I have over 30 mechs and could only use one. Lag is still a major problem. I use to play EU no problems. Lot of friends there. Now it is a nightmare. Hitscan is still crap about half the time. Mechs teleporting sometimes. And why is that I can play Chicago and have a ping of 32 or less, but shoot someone with 4 tows and it does zero damage? Not once or twice but 50 times or more this has happened.  To be honest. Not happy with servers most the time now. Problem with my machine you say? Hmm no, go read the specs (and pics) of both my machines. Connection? Hmm 105mb down and 12.5 mb up, and zero problems with any of the other 6 online games I play. Some in other countries such as the UK. Gaming online since 94 and I've done 51 beta's now. Played Hawken since Oct of 2012, 1st beta. (NOT June of 2013 as Reloaded records say. Almost a year of my main records gone.) (oh and I'd still like my BETA skin back please. I earned it and had to petition for it in the first place. One of the few who "fell thru the cracks" back then.) sooooo server problems? Yeah.

Servers are messed up for some weeks now, not only that sometimes low fps and many more.

Submit a report with date, time, and servers if you can remember them.

 

The difference in your ping across the country is routing BS.

Also Oregon here. Lately I haven't been noticing any issues myself, but Assburn is definitely the worst server group for me now that Dallas seems to have improved. I guess I'd agree that KC should be a bit better since my ping there is pretty similar to locations further afield.

Yes, I've been having disconnect issues a lot this past week. I've had them in the past but have stopped for sometime. Now they seem to be resurfacing for me again.

Just tried a match in Chicago. Played for about a minute with a 76 ping and the game had a massive lag spike, I died, clicked re-spawn, and failed to connect to server.

 

Please look at the servers. So far I've disconnected about four times today due to servers.

I had issues with the game freezing up, but it was my hardware and not the server... i think. It would happen on any server, some less than others. Chicago and New Jersey servers work best for me, but Ashburn, KC, and Dallas are bad. LA is a no-go. I really wish there were Boston or NYC servers. It's odd because i get worse ping 2,000 miles away (hint, I don't live in Dallas) with Hawken servers than i do in Oceania severs with Team Fortress 2. That was my mini server rant.

The NJ servers are stupidly close to NYC.

[kloeri] And we're done for now with all the rebooting.. except for a single server that will be rebooted when it's done pretending it's a tree.

Can confirm, they're literally just west of NYC in Secaucus, NJ.

Did not know that. No wonder I get such good ping...

The servers have been having problems since April. This is not news.

THIS! Hitreg's still a bad joke on some EU servers. Faster A-classes somehow benefit from that and stay almost indestructible, and it seems some players r damn aware of that fact and abuse it, when they r up 2 loose - they simply refer 2 their Scout or Zerker, when things go wrong. 15 seconds of double-Vulcan hitscan fire didn't do a SINGLE point of damage on a Scout i faced a few hours ago. Instead of that he circled about 36 times around me with supersonic speed, shot some TOW/HEAT-combos onto me and killed me with greatest ease in a splitsecond. Way too fast 2 react on him. I really WANT 2 believe, that the devs will improve the game soon, by developing an update... but will they improve the SERVER performance, too? I hope so. I really do... Besides the omnipresent unbalance, due 2 the small playerbase, the A.class speed advantage on the crappy servers gets worse moa and moa, and even moa... That sucks!

 

Damn! ... ;)
