Re: Why are the servers still down?

Why bring up the Gamestop trade in value reference?

Typically Gamestop doesn't offer more than $25 on sports games as trade in because they become flooded with them as the sporting season changes.

Yeah, I don't think Gamestop trade in value is any indicator whatsoever of how bad or good a game is doing. Especially for a sports game.

My bad guys. Game is in good shape. Sorry for pointing out I looked up the trade value and was disappointed in what I saw for a game I essentially bought a week ago. Best Buy is offering 35 if thats a better example for you. My point is it's too late for refunds, the game is broke and trade in value is crap.

Re: Why are the servers still down?

That's not true. It's been like a week. If it's a high demand game Gamestop usually runs a 40 dollar trade in promo for a couple weeks. I get emails about it all the time after buying games.

You can still get 38 for BOTW and horizon zero dawn is worth as much as the show to them and that's been out for a lot longer.

All sports games drop like that. It's not a high demand game like a BOTW would be.

Re: Why are the servers still down?

It's just going to be like this until people give up and stop playing huh? Can't believe it.

It's so embarrassing. It's such a pain to get refunds on these games that not many will bother. And they could be saying nothing because when they say nothing tons of people hope it's because they are working on things. When clearly they are not. So the further out we get from release the harder those refunds are to get.

More maintenance. Things are looking up!

Just checked the trade in value at Gamestop and it's already down to 25 bucks. Guess they are catching on to how broke this thing is.

You've made your point...move on.

I'll move on when the servers work. Not sure what people are expecting to happen in a thread about the servers not working. Delete some of my posts again if that will help. Are we not allowed to reply to posts now if the reply is not overwhelmingly positive?

I mean you don't play online so maybe it's not as bad for you? Maybe some communication about the issue would help.

I deleted only one of your posts because it was borderline trolling.

Anyways, I understand you're upset and angry...I get that. But when you post the same thing again and again (game is broken! this crap ain't fixed! get your money back!) it becomes agenda posting as per the TOS.

If you want to discuss it further, send me or one of the other mods here a PM. Otherwise, drop it.

Re: Why are the servers still down?

I feel like the same things are being said over and over again because the servers are still jacked up (game breaking) and, let's be honest, I've heard more on the subject from my dog this morning than from the company in a week. It's just not good customer service, and as consumers we shouldn't just take it quietly.

Re: Why are the servers still down?

On the server front, what I have noticed the last few nights.

I have not gotten disconnected while in a game (playing strictly VS CPU games). I exit and the game goes to the queue and has counted when it got processed (15 or 20 minutes).

All my disconnects are now coming in the menus when I am surveying my missions and looking at my inventory and jumping back and forth between that screen and the market.

It seems like they almost set up some prioritized system where disconnects are more likely to happen to those not currently in a game.

It is annoying but I can deal with that better than losing an hours worth of playtime and stats.

Re: Why are the servers still down?

Haven't seen any issues after third day. Would have been nice to be given a hand out. Sony let us down.

But the game is awesome. Finally after like 4 years I played RTTS mode. Huge mistake. Wicked addicted. Wow it is a blast. Wanted to be a SS after a month manager made me a LF. Oh well.... LoL.

I played 5 games last night: 2 vs. CPU, 1 Conquest, and 2 Event games. Both CPU games went to Queue, the Conquest game went to Queue (and never came out), and 1 of my Event games went black screen in the Top of the Third.

To me it's gotten worse. I used to be one that could play offline while they sorted it out, but now that I'm older, I have much less time to play and I really only want to dedicate my time to online modes. Unfortunately, the only times I have to play seem to when everyone else plays and then the servers are terrible. For someone like me, this game has been borderline unplayable since purchase. Some people have said "why not try the offline modes until it's fixed"; but the frustration that I have experienced over and over again for more than a week has soured me on the game that to play offline would just make me resent it, and that's a shame because it really is a damn good game.

Re: Why are the servers still down?

Honestly it's like the servers have a curfew when it comes to processing things the past week and a bit.

I work until 4-4:30 everyday and everyday our online franchise will sim no problem up until about 4:15-4:30 and then it all locks up, so a lot of people who are playing during the day and non peak hours are benefiting from this and those who are on the west coast (when the servers die off at about 1:30) likely haven't been able to play much until around like 12-1am (when they seem like they're revived)

It's bizarre and makes no sense as to why there's always a time where they die off.... is it to maintain longevity or what?

Don't expect to see any compensation (if they give any) until the servers are stable and the majority of errors are fixed. People are still getting disconnected. Games are apparently still locking up. Conquest stronghold games seem to not count often when the game is pushed to queue.


If they gave out compensation now and people continued to have issues then those players would expect even more compensation later

Re: Why are the servers still down?

Welp. First game of the day, Vs. CPU, goes to Queue. This was after getting 20 strikeouts with Tillman (7 second delivery) towards my diamond starter mission. If this game gets lost in queue...
