zorlac Posted February 16, 2006 Posted February 16, 2006 Just a heads up to let you know that the VVS504 server will be offline for most of the day on Saturday 18th February, due to a complete server room power down (electrical testing). During the power down, a lot of the kit (including the server) will be shuffled around, completely recabled (network and power), and new switches installed. Expect it to go offline around 0700-0900 GMT, but no ETA for power on again... it will be on when all the work is completed. I deeply apologise to the usual addicts for this break in service....

Pilotasso Posted February 16, 2006 Posted February 16, 2006 R.O.F.L. !!!! Actualy I was taking some time off from the server. Because of temporary adjustment to patch 1.12. Also I dont hold the time record in it anymore hehehehe! So if your singing that "Loving feeling" youll have to sing it to a pig driver...And Im glad you dont have to earn your life as a singer either! .
zorlac Posted February 16, 2006 Author Posted February 16, 2006 When the "new" new patch gets released, i`ll be zeroing all the stats....
Pilotasso Posted February 16, 2006 Posted February 16, 2006 When the "new" new patch gets released, i`ll be zeroing all the stats.... RGR that, when I said "temporary adjustment to patch 1.12" I meant MY adjustements to the changes (tactics). Being training in places where my embarassment is only temporary... ;) Cheers! :) .
Ice Posted February 17, 2006 Posted February 17, 2006 Well the last 2 days I have been flying on the 504 server its been lagfest after another. Planes jumping around all over the place. Missiles will not track for me. I dont know if its peoples connections or the server hosting too many objects/aircraft. But for me its become unplayable.
Pilotasso Posted February 17, 2006 Posted February 17, 2006 Could be the server handling too many players. Sometimes there are high pingers in there wich mess it up completely. I think the server is also left running 24h, so there might not be an admin there to fix the problem (reboot, kick laggers). Unfortunatly there are also some people who take advantage of that and ruin the gameplay for everybody else. Or it could be that it needs a bit of maintenance and optimization, reason for wich it is logic the pause of the server annouced on this thread. :) Cheers! .
Guest EVIL-SCOTSMAN Posted February 17, 2006 Posted February 17, 2006 could it not be that your in OZ ICE and the server is in uk, cuz i used to play bfv/ poe mod via OZ servers and my ping was always 400/600+ connected to oz servers and it made bfv/poe unplayable, it was the only time my buddy who is from OZ could actually kill me in bfv/poe. just a thought, cuz if it was bad for me going to that side of the world, would it not be the same for you coming from there to here ?
Pilotasso Posted February 17, 2006 Posted February 17, 2006 No, I've had lag before like he said. Sometimes it gets bad, and the server crashes frequently. I think this is why their taking it down. .
dynamocl Posted February 18, 2006 Posted February 18, 2006 Speaking of stats, do they get saved constantly? When the stats were first anounced, I was on the board with a respectable 50 odd ground kills. I have flown a few occasions since, no kills recorded for me. (name not changed). Is there something I am not doing (or any other reason for stats not being recorded?)
504Goon Posted February 19, 2006 Posted February 19, 2006 Stats are updated every 1 hour. More about them in this thread: http://forum.lockon.ru/showthread.php?t=13370 The server is now back up, you are all welcome to join. HL seems to be still down, so here's the direct IP: 193.122.208.162 As for the lag, i've seen it, pretty much equally on every server. When pilot counts get higher than 20 the lag/warping tends to increase, which isn't suprising at all..;) But by no means has this made the server unplayable for me at least. 504th CO http://www.vvs504.co.uk
