PVP Duel connection problems https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=41444.msg513726#msg513726
« on: June 22, 2012, 06:57:19 am »
I have recently started getting connection problems when trying to PVP duel/ PVP2.
I WAS able to use PVP duel before, though.
Now the problem generally seems to be that I can't connect in either case. I asked several people if they had a solution to this problem, but all said that I should try the "Check Connection" button. Now what it does is a little weird: Sometimes when I click it, it connects to everything (all goes green) but it still won't connect me to the actual server. The rest of the times it won't connect to the second row (PVP2 and the thing below it). I click reconnect, still times out. I try PVP again, no results.
The strangest parts are that
1) I can play in PVP1
2) When I disconnect from the elements servers clicking on the "Not saved" button actually fixes it.
Any ideas? I live in south-eastern Europe, if that helps at all.
There is no "Big Crunch". The very idea of it is idiotic. If the expansion of the universe, caused by the big bang, is, in fact, what causes the flow of time, how would the big bang happen in the first place, without the universe expanding, thus time not flowing in any particular direction?

Try to keep this opened and refresh it when you want to pvp.
You know, a long time ago being crazy meant something. Nowadays everybody's crazy.

The PvP2/Duel server has been wonky lately. I would wait a while to see who else has problems. In the meantime, you can do the usual stuff: update Flash, your browser and clear out your cache and registry.

If you're looking to find out who else has problems with PvP2, count me.  I have to run (gah!) Chrome to connect at all (my usual browser of choice is Firefox); even using Chrome, I have to check the connection map every time I want to play PvP2 or PvP3.

Calindu has the right idea.  It's suboptimal, but it's a workaround until such a time as the problem is resolved.

I wonder what it was about the 1.31 patch that set this off, or whether it was updates to FF?  Are IE users having issues, too? 

On a side note, do IE users even exist anymore?
The counter to :gravity isn't :aether; it's :D

Well now, what a perfect opportunity to start the new BL season! Just wonderful.  :(

I said I tried the connection thing Calindu mentioned. I've tried running it while connecting, opening and closing it, refreshing, re-connecting when it times out (most of the time) but to no aveil.
Concerning browsers, I use Opera. It seems to do the job most of the time, however I will try using chrome and cleaning my registry (I did defrag it soon, but let's just try).
I will post the results soon.

Edit:
On a side note, none that I have heard of. That's what microsoft gets for being an asshole. They don't even deserve capitalization.  >:(

IE users are still there, certainly, because some of us play on office computer (basically slacking), which often disallow us to install third party browser.
Also, this has happened many times before, and many has complained. Just hope Zanz prioritize server unborking first.
I use Firefox 12, and it works good. Mostly.

Just noticed this has been moved. Sorry for the trouble, didn't really pay attention  ;D
Well I'm now using chrome and it seems to not disconnect me from pvp duel, and as far as PVP2 goes I had to open the connection thing before I was able to connect with anybody, but in the end it DID work. Thanx.
