Only two active servers
« on: July 24, 2010, 05:21:26 AM »
I notice for myself there seem to be only two servers that are active that would be the TLL NJ server and another one. The TLL seems to always be full or almost full and the other one seems to have about 6ish in it usually. The rest all have 0 people in them. I was wondering I am I just not seeing the other active servers, are they not public or is that just all the servers that are currently active.

There's only about 60 or so players on at peak times, which is around 2 or 3 PM GMT -6, and around now (10 PM GMT -6) it drops to around 30 or so, and gets lower throughout the night, hitting 0 in the early AM times.

Someone around here has a helpful signature that has these stats (AFAIK) streamed live. (well, when you refresh at least)

Stats are available here:

Peaks are 80-60 players mostly (last week it was over 70 each day during the peak), and it almost never hit zero as dsi1 wrote.

Try to play in different time - it should help in finding more players. You can get 3, sometimes 4 active, nearly full servers at the peak time without any problem :)

So few? That's kind of depressing.

Makes for an intimate community.  It will get better as we get more community organization and the mod ports to wars.

It's not as bad as 0.2, but it becomes frustrating when you have to restart and rejoin the game every 30 minutes or so. But don't mind the CTDs, they're just the icing on the bluescreen-cake ATI drivers serve me :<

(I don't know how to reproduce it precisely, just that apparently the Novacat still is an issue)

I have heard others mention it and have gotten the same impression myself, that the CTDs seem to have become more frequent with the later patches.
I dont know what the reason for  it happening, and there seems to be a wide variety of "suggestions" for the reason.

It is frustrating I know, and whats worse is that on some of the more popuplar servers, like the TLL servers, about 90% of the time someone else has taken my spot when I come back after a CTD.
This means you get to play maybe half a match, before having to wait for an opening which you never know when will show up.
I find it extra frustrating on those rare occations when I catually manage to get good scores and higher ranks so I can get some of the good high end assets.

No Blue screens for me just poof on the desktop no crysis/mwll running.  Very strange and it has just started happening to me since 0.3.2.  Could be ATI 10.6 driver related.  Will report back after I rollback to an earlier version.

I had it ever since 0.2, sometimes it starts reading my crysis disc before it happens, other tims its as if I hit alt+F4, and sometimes I get the windows error report (crysis ahs encountered a porblem and has to close) and ask if you want to send an error report.
Never had any bluescreens though.

You have to play with the crysis disk in? That's odd, it never asks me for mine...

the crashes are due to the mod- the blue screens are your computer. there's probably something else going on because one game alone isn't going to cause your hardware to fail or cause a bsod

I experience continuous CTDs as well.

The only hint I can give is that everything started with 0.2.0, 0.1.0+hotfix was perfectly stable.

Plain Crysis is stable too, it is related to version 0.2.0 and following.

I think it is still related to the novacat, it usually happens when NCs are around.
