Typical online game launch day woes sure, but these servers are not "fine" right now.


No they're fine. You can't blame a dev for a DDoS attack. And you can't use troll twitter accounts with 0 followers to back up a claim:

Uninstalled after 3 hours. Seemed too janky and mid b-tier to me. I just don't get the hype for this one. Chalk it up to not all games are made for all players I suppose. I wanted to like it.

Brother I don’t care about the reason - me and everyone I know couldn’t connect yesterday. It not being their fault doesn’t mean that the servers are fine. I don’t have any Twitter followers either, and I’m a real boy!

Some of y’all must be on the payroll.

What? No they're not. Can't connect, neither can any of my friends. A quick glance at their socials says this isn't a unique problem and there have been tons of reports all day of the same.

At the time you posted that and even now, it's green across the board for OUTRIDERS status. When I haven't been able to connect, the status clearly reflected that.

He pointed out it's an unintentional bug in the OS and you've derailed the thread how you aren't suffering from that particular bug 🤷‍♂️
I think you should follow the conversation before commenting. You are saying I derailed the thread but what exactly do you think you are doing now when that conversation is pretty much over?
Read the full conversation and watch the video I shared for context, otherwise, move on. And no, when the conversation started, we weren't discussing a 'bug' and we only reached that conclusion after I pointed out my experience and compared it with his.

By we, I mean me and legendofkage, Mana had pretty much bowed out at this point.

An absolutely flawless launch. Among the best I’ve ever seen. Incredible.

Who said it was flawless? It clearly hasn't been as evidenced by posts in this thread (including by me). However, at the time you made your post, things were fine.
 
Still only 1 review on MC!? Hellooooo, where are the reviews Square Enix? Really really scummy of you. Guess you wanted to avoid at all costs two successive disasters after Balan Wonderworld.

Don't pass gaas, it is your Destiny!
I'm not talking only about the online part, i heard about shitty perfromance on pc, stuttering etc.
Didn’t have any issue with the demo but full version is stuttery as fuck. Can’t get head shots cause just skips over the frame when I try to aim, y brother couldn’t even see his powers go off cause it would skip thru the entire animation.

I just did a refund, was so so on game anyways. It’s enough to make me wait for a deep discount if at all.

Ps5 version it is then.

I mean, it's not the only reason, i have more friends on console.

I am actually quite liking this.

Pyromancer or whatever that class is called is a beast. Get a decent 100 shot LMG, then get the lava rounds power and you become an instrument of death. I really need to get some coop going with some other classes.

Any adults that play in the evening after 9pm euro time/8pm UK time wanna hit the coop? Just quote the post and send me a message. I am lvl 10 at the moment. I will be more tonight though!!!

There are countless reviews here, on STEAM on YouTube and elsewhere across the internet. If you only find validation from the corporate media then you're going to be out of luck for awhile as review copies didn't go out until servers were turned on.

Of course, I’m still old-school and value ”corporate media” more than random Jack on the internet. MC (not user review) failed me maybe once in last 15 years.

lol, lost connection to the servers near the end of a battle while solo and got kicked to the main menu

Are you sure? Their internal server status is saying it’s fine!

Anyway, buddy and I just fired it up. Same thing I see people complaining about on socials. Neither of us can connect still on PS5. Just a generic error screen that says “Could Not Connect to Outriders Servers.”

we’ll try again tomorrow!

Edit: yep servers all good fokes nothing to see here

I appreciate the additional mini-game they have in this game called "See if you can connect."

Not sure if I should keep trying a certain number of times or go onto another game.
lol you got me to laugh there.

I had to do the intro mission 3 times due to the disconnects. I am going to hold off before diving in until the issues are fixed. But I don't think this game will pull me away from Destiny which is a shame because I prefer third-person view games.

It took them what, less than 30 minutes to identify there was an issue?

That's because they don't update it very often and/or it isn't accurate. Servers have been almost entirely down for over an hour now.

They don't have an exit game option on the login screen either, lol.

How in the hell do i upgrade the ps4 version to the ps5 version?

god i fucking hate ps5 ui...

if i click in the banner for the free upgrade it just goes to the shop with the full price but no upgrade.

do i really have to wait for the ps4 version to completely install to switch to the ps5 versioN and download the whole thing again??

Authenticating...

Why is this industry doing its best to make a mockery of day-one customers?

And what the hell happened to no more intro logos after the first time on PS5?

can you not do the same thing manabyte showed on the previous page?
it's a different thing, he already has the ps5 version, i bought the ps4 version because the fucking gamestop didn't had the ps5 version...

Do i have to wait for the complete installation of the ps4 version before doing the upgrade.

It sounds like he has a PS4 copy of the game so he will need to redeem the upgrade first. That should show up to the right once he is on the game page. 🤷‍♂️
yep, but if i click on the free upgrade banner it just send me to the shop where i can only buy the game, no patch banner where to click.

You shouldn't have to do that. I upgraded many of the PS4 digital copies I had by going to the game page and the upgrade option was shown to the right.

Ahh...I see. That's really weird.

EDIT

I guess you might have to wait till it installs and see.
