Pirates down for maintenance
|
Will they really perform maintenance or will they not? That is the question.
|
The answer you seek is NO they will not do maintennance
Currently showing at 16:22 BST 15/08/2013 http://i1311.photobucket.com/albums/...ps5466bf1f.jpg PCSV 1.0.34.30 V 1.0.1.87 |
You should probably think about yer thread title before ye post, mate.
I thought Disney ended POTCO. xD |
lol Tobias I had the same thought cross my mind too!
|
In a way it has I used to be able to log in after 5 mins but am unable to now,
The worst time for Disney to do this is at that point when Darkhart drops a skull chest and you open it and see the lost sword of el patron and disney boot you before you can claim it |
Scary stuff.
Everything would be back to normal tomorrow- But I wonder why did they close the servers down for maintenance while not doing actual maintenance? |
What they are doing is removing the code for nemesis blade
|
Oh, of course.
|
If they are really doing maintenance which is woefully needed, it takes 90 mins for them to accomplish. I've seen stuck ships at Tortos and elsewhere for over a week or two or longer. If you want to know the true state of the server, look at the ships sailing. If they start to skip, lag will become increasingly noticeable. You can't even play CD because the ships skip a lot there too which becomes worse as you complete each wave.
|
I had noticed that with CD, especially as you get into double figures, then just as you hit a certain wave you get DC and you have to log straight back in and go to where you was playing CD to find someone else has jumped straight in there and taken your place UGH
|
Don't know if this anything to go by but look at this
PREVIOUS: PCSV 1.0.34.30 V 1.0.1.87 NEW PCSV 1.0.34.31 V 1.0.1.87 |
That's interesting. Maybe a contest is coming up again. rofl
|
They must actually be doing something, the site's been closed down for maintenance for 1hr 13mins and I still can't get in, wow. This is a first.
But out curiosity, how long was the game stuck at PCSV 1.0.34.30 for? |
Quite a while I reckon. Maybe its a security thing. Or, maybe something long exploited by players is being removed from the game?
|
I do hope they've added a blockade on the P.I. program that people use
|
I'd like to see annoying glitches removed, and many of them pvp/svs exploitable.
Exploitable bugs against normal enemies are useful to an extent until they, too, become annoying. They might have added something? |
Well, it will be refreshing to see if they acted on stuff we have found disturbing. If not, what else is really new?
|
1hr 32mins (Still no access) - well I may as well go do some stuff in real and log on later after the end time
|
Unless they release 'release notes', we'd only have to guess.
Or get someone to go through the phrase files again. I'm realizing now the importance of release notes, heck, without release notes we wouldn't even know if a whole damn story chapter is added. |
lol Send a feedback Mate and request they inform us what changes, if any, were made with the version change. Someone is obviously working at POTCO today. I'm sure you will get a timely response!
@ Bart, give it another 20 minutes. Do whatever you need to do or haven't done yet in the meantime. |
Well I do need to go visit family, so I probably won't be able to log on until around 10pm BST or 7pm PDT
|
I just tried Launching the game. The version number appeared immediately. I expected it to deny access quickly but instead it briefly mentioned that the site is closed for maintenance [barely caught that too] and then it went ahead to update the game. After it finished, it started loading when it crashed because it encountered an error. rofl
|
They'll probably fix all issues at most in one day. Probably sooner!
I also do see the version number now 31, and the maintenance red box thingy. They are obviously doing SOMETHING with the game. |
I was so tempted to fill out the infamous Bug Report it graciously opened after I crashed. Alas, I chose not to. I know why it encountered a problem that it is not program to know. Poor thing.
|
its 2:56 PM Thursday now and Im still getting
There was a problem updating pirates of the Caribbean online cleared cache and hash, Can log into Test but All the buildings in Tortuga were gone... |
Have you tried again since?
I was able to get in without problem. Game performance is wonderful every where I went. Nothing new was added. The ships that were stuck have disappeared. |
oO
yes been trying every 10 min
|
Server may be attempting numerous times to connect with your computer. Disconnect your net access for 3 minutes. Then reconnect and try launching again.
|
Nothing worked
This is what i did for a workaround so far its working and updating soon to find out if i can get on all i did was copy the launcher.exe file to another empty file in the c programs disney folder then ran it as an admin now all is well except for waiting on the oceans and islands to download Sigh.. |
So you're reinstalling it?
|
yeah tru the launcher launched alone in a file not Potco-setup
Quote:
|
I see. That's an interesting workaround. Good luck Mate!
|
I use that trick if i want to run two independent potco clients
if you want to use two accounts, but if not you can hit ctrl+alt+delete then end the launcher process and you will be able to log in another account at the same time. |
So any idea as to the update/maintenance?
|
Well, all those players with stuck ships have them back. Servers are in excellent condition. Watch how fast the popular ones deteriorate after those players use their glitching.
|
Abassa has already started to lag again
|
|
How long did that maintenance last though?
|
Did it update the game version to .32?
|
Nope. That was the first thing I checked. Maybe they cleaned up the servers in light of the huge lagfest that happened over the weekend.
|
Perhaps Dx would start doing it's weekly maintenance again like they used to be. With the reduction of our servers, that certainly would help with all the issues of lag and all those stuck ships we've seen the past few weeks.
|
lol sometimes I think they shouldn't bother to. Since players find no harm in using those glitches, let them live with their choice until it reeks havoc into their game play. What do they do when they can't stand playing in their favorite server? They run to the Quiet server that's in good working order and glitch there until they mess it up. Then they go to the next good working server and repeat their selfish game play until there are no good working servers anymore. At that point they have the audacity to turn around and blame POTCO for lack of maintenance. Really?
|
its closing..
|
I'm not surprised.
|
Pirates of the Caribbean Online will be temporarily closed for maintenance from 5:00 PM PDT and will reopen at 8:00 PM PDT. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience!
|
No kidding. What for this time? I saw the Holiday Decorations. Real sloppy.
|
Here's to hoping they've changed their plans to close POTCO, The winter festival is out and the caribbean holiday music in the taverns is available too including /noisemaker.
But what I cant understand is if they are closing potco down then why would they do maintenance for? |
lol now we know. Jack's Brew, dang.

Avast there, Pirates - you may experience connection issues currently on some Oceans. Thank you for your patience while we look into the problem.
|
Has anyone been successful in logging their account at the official site to view your own Standings at the Leaderboards? When I try to, it redirects me to their main page.
Haven't been able to for several days now. And whatever maintenance they did yesterday, they took away the Play button too. |
