Connection to Server

[Taffy]

Still no go with accessing the game - still can't get past lost connection to server (17 August) - yet some days can access ok - to a certain extent. Surely despite all the other problems connection to the server is a PRIME requirement ? All other errors don't impact anyone if no access.

Please solve this issue. Very frustrating.

Taffy (and others) you can try this trick that I discovered by accident:
1. Create a hotspot on your mobile phone.
2. Connect to the hotspot
3. Load game
4. Once game has loaded change back to your normal internet connection (for once the lag works in your favour)
It has worked for quite a few players, just don't ask why.

Missing you Taffy ,hope its resolved soon we haven't got many players left after the last update ,hope Baron Baldrick takes note UK ,Netherlands ,Australia and others all being treated very badly and onus is on developers to resolve the chaos they caused not players to try all manner of madcap things to play the game we all love ,Maybe if everyone stopped buying gems ,Premium ,PBF etc and it started to directly affect developers pocket ,things would get fixed a little quicker ,or remind them without us they have nothing perhaps even a job.

Don't be silly with the won't have a job. TSO won't be BB let alone Ubisoft biggest money maker. Also- voting with the wallet is a double edged sword as they might decide there is no point in continuing.

Anyway - lets be honest, only a fool would buy gems in the current situation, although i bet there are a few but keep in mind:
1) the game is in trouble
2) there seems to be no quick and easy fix
3) the game is old- 10 years give or take a couple
4) BB has closed a game before without compensating "recent buys"

And as to being treated very badly... As far as i know the problems are across the board and a fix will be across the board. There is no "treating one playerbase worse than another" in this case. BB is not chosing to treat players badly- the result of unity roll out is bad but they will not has set out to selectively punish people or upset the playerbase or break the game the way they did. At most they made a series of bad and very bad decisions and it shows.

If they went on a happy go lucky approach- it failed :P
