On the official site for Earth & Beyond, Westwood's upcoming space MMORPG, there has been an update regarding the ongoing beta. Here's the part about bugs that have been identified:
Some bugs we've identified and are working on resolving include:
A really interesting issue with sector hand-offs which results in those long times moving between sectors. The guys have found the cause and are working on solutions now.
A database issue that causes periodic spikes in performance every couple of minutes.
A wide variety of areas we can optimize our server communications.
Unfortunately, I don't have a ton of specifics because every time I go near the network engineers offices there's an awful lot of people craning their necks to see the diagnostic displays and log files being generated by the server.
What I do know though is that at our meetings today, there has been incredible praise for your efforts and patience. As soon as we're able to get your direct feedback (on the beta area messageboards), we'll want to ask more specific questions about the symptoms you're experiencing.
Which... leads me to the situation with the message boards on the website. We thought yesterday that we'd found a single issue that was causing us so many problems. Closer inspection has revealed a few more bugs that were identified when the load to the restricted area became so heavy. We're working right now to get the message boards restored, the solutions are in QA and have been most of the afternoon. We may (*crosses fingers*) be able to push them live tonight. |
