i haven't been able to log in for 3 days, each time i have waited for 4 hours, according to task manager nothing is being received via wifi, yet i can log into youtube in seconds and watch videos no problem..
Come on BB sort this out, it is getting silly. I never had a single issue logging in before you ''fixed'' the problem, now I sit looking at a 1/3rd completed load bar forever. It is beyond funny now; time to employ someone who can sort it please.
same for me. staring at the loading screen. Please 'unfix' what you 'fixed' some days ago during maintenance. At least it was somewhat better before that day.
Hello,
Since the last update (18 JUN 2019) it's been extremely hard to log in, waiting times 20+ minutes. Since earlier today I can't log in at all using chrome. I could only by using the slim browser, but it took some 2 hours. When will this be fixed ?
Those are the rough expected load times with the current caching issues (with all assets that can be cached already cached). Anything over ~4 minutes can lead to a timeout (it never finishes loading).PHP Code:
40mb 0m38s
20mb 1m16s
10mb 2m32s
5mb 5m4s
4mb 6m20s
3mb 8m27s
2mb 12m40s
1mb 25m20s
0.5mb 50m40s
To have the best chance of getting the game to load:
1) Stop all background downloads so settlers online can download at its fastest possible speed, this includes any kind of music or video streaming. You can safely resume them once the game has finished loading.
2) Keep the loading page in focus, some browsers throttle background downloads which makes the matter worse if your connection speed is slower than 5mb.
I hope this is sorted soon, its a shame if a lot of players are unable to participate in an event because the game does not even load. It's especially awkward if anyone with these loading issues tries to do some co-op adventures and ends up locking the adventure out for hours. I really wish the developers would add more information to the loading screen so you can clearly see when a timeout has occurred rather than leaving the players guessing.
I think something was changed saturday 22nd - in the evening I could not load game in Vivaldi browser even using the usual work-arounds. After clearing cache I got it running.
And now it seem to be stable in both Chromium and Vivaldi -
First load FAILS - with 1 file loading - the other 3 loads 34.x or 35.x KB and then loading stop.
Second load is OK - After reloading page all 4 files load and game start.
It gets worse and worse... each content added make the game slower, and slower.... and slower....
And nobody care !
Since the last maintenance on 18 JUN I experienced very long loading times, then since Saturday I cannot load the game in any browser. I let the loading window in focus over 2 hours and nothing happened, it just showed the loading bar halfway through forever. I sent a ticket to bb and got back generic advice such as "clear chache", etc. I tried everything they suggested, nothing worked, so I replied to them that the problem is their own maintenance/ fix a few days ago. They have not replied yet. It is very frustrating to not be able to log into the game and get no reaction from bb.
I have been trying to get in for the last, maybe, 1hr, refresh multi times and still hang randomly during loading.
seems this this the bad time to get in. Writing here as a reminder for BB to know when is bad to get in.
