Patching + Database progress

[Idejder]

We are back in the office after sleeping a few hours and we plan to patch this morning sometime soon. We just had a quick power outage here (grr storm) and are working on a database issue before we patch, but we will keep you updated.

For now you can still play as normal and you shouldn't notice any interruption. Just letting you know why stickies disappeared and why you might (unlikely but still) have trouble finding a server.

[EpicLose]

Nice, can't wait.
Also, first

[Xuconnie]

Thanks <3

[illLich]

every day last week something goes wrong.
:(

[I7aggoHok]

[Pandam0n1um]

Lies. You are having nerf gun battles ;)

[i11us1oN]

Awwww saw you logged in and creating thread in GD and though patch notes incoming :(

Thanks for the update though ;) look forward to the new patch, if the leaked patch notes are true some surprising changes ;)

[Okuu]

Thank you

[gew]

Thanks for the prompt update jedi. Honestly though, get some sleep, I'm sure that we will survive without the patch for a few more hours. Even jedi sleep, I was visited by the spirit of an old friend, who has found a way to communicate with the living. He also warned me of the dark side, and my father....but I won't worry about that.

[zeues]

For now you can still play nd as normal

Normal is in getting coins and psr ? Or normale as in no stats still ? (:

[`tSu]

game is unplayable atm, so hurry up.

the leaver attitude is ****ing rampart now, with no penalties over doing so. :madm:

[Thysios]

Woo.

[Emptronic]

+1 for Sticky

[Tommoh]

The database problem is the reason only some stats are recording?
Won 5 and lost 1, only the last one gave me minus rating! :O

No harm done ofc, but will it be fixxed ?
cheers for update

[`tSu]

game is unplayable atm, so hurry up.

the leaver attitude is ****ing rampart atm, when there are no penalties for being a dickass. :madm:

[MrMister`]

Please patch soon, I have to go to bed in a couple hours for work today and want to get 1 game in!

[HOLYoleg]

OKIyyyy

[Dordanov]

Damn, ofcourse you guys had to get some more issues while fixing things, you have some really bad luck at times.. :P

So the maintenance is all done? stats pages are operational it seems, but all the XML pages are still displaying a Maintenance message atm.

[JJbreis]

Red Jedi, any news on the people that are still IPBaned?Is there an ETA on that?

[MrPiggi]

If we play now, will stats be getting recorded? Or should we wait for the patch?

[Henke]

Thanks for the information. I just wounder if the stats that we didn't get last day and today will come or not? Excuse me if this have been posted somewhere else.

[zeues]

Thanks for the information. I just wounder if the stats that we didn't get last day and today will come or not? Excuse me if this have been posted somewhere else.

Nope it will not come :)

[SS601st]

What happened to the stats?

see ya guys next friday!!!

[Akanos]

So are recording stats working now? confirmation anyone?

[Vantec]

Thanks for nothing

You didnt address the one issue everyone is talking about

Will the stats be updated/reset from the downtime period?

[madnetiC]

well i just played one and it didnt record

[Derek_GJ]

nice

[Athana`diwya]

nice

[Gwin`]

((((

[Rapid]

Waiting for the patch!

[JJbreis]

If any of s2 could give a brief answer regarding the VeriSign IP bans false positives. It\'d be great :*

[HoN`Maniac]

ddos 1 week, maintence 24 hours, patching and storm... wat next... gj s2 games i am so ****in happy

[Idejder]

If you send your IP to support they should be forwarding them to Verisign.

[MaximB]

Does that mean that stats will be counted ?

[JJbreis]

I\'ve obviously done that, been in contact with Nergal. Still nothing.He said if the new migration didn\'t fix it, he\'d have to sit in IM with me and figure it out. If you\'re free, eh.

[Janitor]

ddos 1 week, maintence 24 hours, patching and storm... wat next... gj s2 games i am so ****in happy
Your account icon should be "iTard"

[Jareth]

Does that mean that stats will be counted ?

All stats from 8pm EDT last night will be counted and restored.

[Hedrok]

"If you send your IP to support they should be forwarding them to Verisign."

If you (I) send your IP (this is like a computer phone number or something) they (Who are?) should (sounds like it might just not happen) be forwarding them (them? more then one IP?) to Verisign (Verisign, i googled it and have no clue what thats have to do with HoN)

To be able to play Hon in the future you need a master degree in engineering and 6 years in college for computer science

So who Do I send my computer phone number to, so it can talk to the server and the server record the stats?

[JJbreis]

So yea, please let me know, if any of you tech people are available to help me, this has been dragging for over a month :*Thanks in advance.

[Loki]

So are recording stats working now? confirmation anyone?

This. Any ETA on the stats being fully operational?


@Jareth: your source?

[Jareth]

support@s2games.com Not that complicated. :)

Verisign is the company that is working to prevent the DDOS attacks, which have run rampant this last month, from doing any more damage.

[Nigma]

We are performing some maintenance on the Login Server at the moment.

You will be unable to log in for about 10 minutes.

Thank you for your patience.

[Hedrok]

Thnx S2 for working so hard to keep so many players active in an good game, sleeping under 4 hours for 1 week is tuff, you are all Duke Nuken

[lup31337]

[Idejder]

[InsaniacZA]

Sheesh, chill out peeps!

[jockelit0]

hope its working soon! GL with the job s2

[VojvodaMilos]

Longest ten ****ing minutes ever. It's like when electrician holds u. ForevAr :elec:

[peep_show]

the key to a forum post is to read previous information on it before asking a question that has already been answered several times... here endeth the lesson for today.

[Boberg]

Haven't 10 minutes passed? Anything wrong?

Thanks for your work S2.

[huynhisgay]

thanks s2 i can login now! =]

[SS601st]

So "1" hour last night ended up 2h35min - Today "new" maitenense problems taking "10" minutes... Then stats problems, later some other kind of problems i suppose...

[Arcadeus]

dude, i love your sig. i am a professor of latin and it translates to something like this:

"Virgins: you're homo, it's a fact. You're gonna get crucified because I'm pro."

homo means man -.- fail 'professor' est = is.

[wza]

some patch notes would be nice

[```Spawn]

error number 500... ne fefe..

[JonTheJester]

Obviously not.

Logins will be down for a few as Nigma said. We will bring them back up shortly.


If you don't want the title, can S2 hire me as Official Forum Troll?

a series of natural consequences
can't get any worse than this, can it?



oh wait login failed: bad data

omfg

[shnoid]

so you guys really let these attacks spoil 999999999 gaming hours for your customers shame on you

[Ipman63]

Login failed: Bad Data - please wait few minutes and try again......since 30 min..few minutes

[Boberg]

I still get the "Bad Data" thingy. Is it just me or are they still not totally up? Wanna get in there and pewpew with my:legi:!

[Winnie_Pooh]

Thx for information and good work i know how hard is it to handle that many issues at the same time

and i hope we will get stats just finished a imortal game with :devo::devo::devo::devo::devo:=)

[Arcanjo]

.... =(

[BlackSabbath]

Will I get a leave for the game I couldn't rejoin?

^ This.

[Teostra]

Will I get a leave because I tried relogging during this?

[Eganon]

just give us an optional free stats-reset and i bet everyone will forget this and be happy :P, since 90% are moaning about stats

[daretheninja]

homo means man -.- fail 'professor' est = is.

correct

[Unwoven]

[Skolweska]

Still cant log in... :madm:

[Zarakii]

WTF is up with the login? said something about the data base?
and i'm awear about the servers? but you said it your self that nothing should be a problem?

[Boberg]

Any new information S2? How long will it take?

I know you are working ahrd but just wanna know so I can go do something else in the meantime.

[RealTechN9ne]

Phew pretty long 10 minutes right there S2 boys

[gew]

Still can't believe the amount of complaining. Sit down, shutup, and be patient.

[ThnxSkittles]

You're all impatient people arent you? Just wait it out. Go run a mile or do some sit-ups. At least do something physical.

[gurjot3000]

Its been 20 minutes now....any new eta?

[shnoid]

well since i can't log in ill troll here cause when i will be able to loging mm will be down and when mm is back stats will b off then 2x coins weekend can't login saturday so its 2x coins fri and sunday sigh sigh sigh

[MadGic]

Can we get a new ETA? Would be awesome, still good luck fixing it...

[Loki]

I found the verse while being bored in church, resorting to the book with all the songs in it. I don't think that translation is entirely correct though, at least not in the most common interpretation of the words. Still, it's a funny little coincidence that the words are layed out exactly like this, with the dashes to separate the words :)


Anyway, the question still stands. Are stats currently being recorded, and if not, when will they be recorded again? Is this on the same schedule as the patch or on a separate schedule?

[Quizgup]

still can't login :<

[peep_show]

Still can't believe the amount of complaining. Sit down, shutup, and be patient.


you think everyone is complaining standing up? XD

[Steinx]

Its been more than 20 mins now what is wrong with hon? The attack on the 2x coin didnt even get a compensation wtf

[RealTechN9ne]

Even 10 minutes are relative for S2

[VojvodaMilos]

We are impatient? Well the last month we have been quite patient I reckon. Patience is running out can't wait to test Dota 2.

I hope Valve won't **** things up like they tend too...

Sorry S2 I loved this game before that 2.0 crap. Now you act like a bunch of money greedy steinbergs. soz. :chip:

[SpecielEdict]

OMG S2 games plz FIKS THIS HELL GAME!!

[Fleder]

30 minutes now...

[obstacle_1]

rage

[Znoowy]

Any idea when the login server will be back up?
10 min , a hour , two hours?

[deraaf]

Just be patience people.
But I think I am talking against a wall xD.

[arischa]

wow, another timeout from s2
uncapable of handling their own program
well done juniors

Why are you here then? Leave now soo we have 1 less of a douche complaining...

[Allnighte]

for all of you complaining that it is taking longer than 10 minutes:

THIS IS WHY S2 DOESN'T POST ANYMORE.

it's OBVIOUS they're working on it RIGHT NOW.

it isn't like they've all left the office and went to hooters.

it will be up as soon as they get it working. why is this so hard to understand?

go for a run outside, when you come back, it will probably be up.

[SS601st]

Why didnt you made all the maitenense work and the patching last night - you lost 2nhalf hours anyway and the players were arround 20k when you finally managed to run the game on the new servers so WHY DONT U DO THIS **** U R DOING NOW LAST NIGHT WITH THE OTHER WORK.................????????????????????

[FOKKENPRAWN]

how long its the bad data going to be there...cause it just not as cool as the first time. what is happening and how long will it take before i'll be able to log on today? any one with correct info plz let me know thanks

[Cynicus]

can u make a locked thread for these updates scrolling through
these trolls kinda annoying :scou:

[Quizgup]

but there's this guy outside my house that keeps yelling like an idiot, i need to focus on something else! and i cant log in :(

[Nemishite]

hell yeah !!

[boorak]

sry guys but hon isn't very interesting anymore. everytime when i want to play a game, there's always another error or problem. i mean everytime you want to play you think "i hope hon works now" sucks since few weeks and i wish i could get my money back. paying for a game you can't play is very stupid...

[Widdershins]

The people that are flipping out in this post, are the same people who flip out when Swiftblade gets a bloodlust kill. Just sayin'.

[oozymandias]

Its back on i logged in!

trololololol

[wildehilde]

its not working for everyone though.

edit// I'm in vent with people who are MMing right now while I can't log-in, thats even more annoying

[Fade2Shadow]

OMG 10mins... TV time starts

[Expect_Us]

Looks like S2 cant handle a game. Crashes / lags / bug / DDOShit attack is taking over 40% of my HoN free time

[huynhisgay]

I still get the "Bad Data" thingy. Is it just me or are they still not totally up? Wanna get in there and pewpew with my:legi:!

yeah theres about 20k ppl on right now

[eNTi]

so you put the servers @ a new location and the first day a storm hits and you got a power outage? what are you in lightning country now? did you check, if that will happen more often? lol s2... you seriously did it again, didn't you?

[zionyy]

dont feed the troll plz.

[Phetamine]

Thank you for your patience.

^ This, has been long gone since the start of all this downtime/lag, and not just mine im sure

[Brommakis]

Update pls

Do you think a nerd can run? O.o

[iUseNoMouse]

come on!

[DarKZ0R]

dced from game = can't even login and come back, ty for nothing s2.

[Pathard]

Obviously not.

Logins will be down for a few as Nigma said. We will bring them back up shortly.
I have been quoted by a Red. The red jedi himself, no less!

On topic: Guys, when the database + patch + login issue is settled it'll be go-time. Yeah, they said ten minutes and it's been longer than that. Honestly, though, they're fixing things and making them better so that your diapers will last longer than twenty minutes.

[ReXcore]

10minutes my mexican ass.

[klind]

Thing is, S2 is not TRYING to have this game be down and hard to use. That's counterintuitive, seeing as they're trying to provide games for money.

Either way, here's hoping the new joint fixes most of these problems, and that the constant DDoS attacks start to slow.

Also, really excited to try tree and the tweaked hunter! Blood Craze off of ALLIES? SHWEET.

[Xozzi]

Raaa''aaaaa'aaage quit!

[InfraDark]

idk what we pay for...LoL is free they dont have as much probs as HoN. FML

[Boberg]

They can't even give us an update, jesus.

[dRgN1]

who need stats ? we can leave for free now .Hope they ll never patch it . Have fun :scou::scou:

[RuStYsPoOoN]

Srsly! Last time I tried to play HoN there was ddos attack. And now this time it's bad data! WTH ARE S2 DOING!? I dont have internet at home right now so my playtime is limited. And when I finally get some time to play this **** happends! Does any one know what the problem is and when I can play!?

[sexdwarf]

Will everyone without a clear insight into how the software business and more relevant the indie-game business works please shut the **** up. It's not like there's a big red button on the wall of S2Games office that says "FIX IT".

If you buy a car and a few weeks later you realize something's wrong with it you don't go back to the shop and say "fix it", and start complaining when they don't correct it in 5 minutes.

These things they've had problems with are serious things and with my limited knowledge I'd say it's a few rather complicated things they're dealing with. Networking architecture is not really legos...

So please. STFU, you will be able to feed mid with SS soon.

[Niichan]

Patient is the key, i hope finaly after that patch the problems is gone.

Or S2 lose more players.

[Xuconnie]

idk what we pay for...LoL is free they dont have as much probs as HoN. FML
They also have 8 hours of downtime to just patch the game. You mad?

[Renovatio]

i receive one message on loging game for download a new patch, i clicked yes but the game just tried to login, and now i can't longer login.
someone in the game? why i ca't log in?

[No_ObCak3]

Yo S2.. Just keep the servers down for another hour... These retards need to learn some patience and stfu...

Just saying...

[madnetiC]

time for bubblebox.com

[iShamael]

Since i could not log on during the last 20min, i went to take my dog out for a walk in the sunshine and had a nice cup of coffee with my roommate...

THATS 20 MINUTES OF MY LIFE WHICH I`LL NEVER GET BACK, RIGHT S2?!?!

fix it or ill kill myself!!

[Cold_as_Ice]

Here is a suggestion. Compensate us with a whole week of double coin along with first of the day bug after every win.
http://www.adiumxtras.com/images/thumbs/troll_icons_2_28891_7697_thumb.png

[Cubs]

More than one month with this problem, the attacks are now problems with db.
All players are tired of seeing messages being posted and nothing really being done to solve the problems.
1 year after that for beta test in less than two years tds pro players pass these problems.
Everyone has patience, but patience has limits.
We fully expect this to be resolved.

[Shockfire]

Nice

[EnvoL]

This seems to take forever http://www.bladerubberstamps.co.uk/media/inca_8115aa_sad_face.gif

[joegood]

Any info on how its going and when servers may be up again? :)

[`Genzo`]

They also have 8 hours of downtime to just patch the game. You mad?

and HoN never has that, nooo it wasn't down the whole day yesterday, and now its still down, that makes it at least 36 hours in my book

[Idejder]

Yes yes we know it is annoying. We are finishing up copying over some master server scripts and then we should be ok. In the meantime I think we will move over the patch notes to appease all of you. :P

[Glibber`]

Mad data

[D4NY]

idk what we pay for...LoL is free they dont have as much probs as HoN. FML

League of losers is also utterly **** compared to this game.

Edit: This game is also way to cheap, cost barley nothing when you look at how much time you spend with it. Here in Norway you can't even buy 3 beers in a pub for what HoN costs. In other words; Don't get drunk once and you can buy HoN for 3-4 of your friends easily. ;-)

[InfraDark]

Yes yes we know it is annoying.
no u dont know.

[darre]

why the **** do you patch all the ****ing time?

Gather all data and make on big patch insted of 1000000 small patches

s2 go die

[Mr`999]

againnn..... i waited for 1 hour and servers doesnt work... What about "10 min" s2 ????????????????

[SafeMode]

Bad support if you ask me...

[DarkLynx]

Yes yes we know it is annoying. We are finishing up copying over some master server scripts and then we should be ok. In the meantime I think we will move over the patch notes to appease all of you. :P


Do it! :warb:

[Techies]

We are back in the office after sleeping a few hours and we plan to patch this morning sometime soon. We just had a quick power outage here (grr storm) and are working on a database issue before we patch, but we will keep you updated.

For now you can still play as normal and you shouldn't notice any interruption. Just letting you know why stickies disappeared and why you might (unlikely but still) have trouble finding a server.

Solar Flare!!!

[RuStYsPoOoN]

Srsly! Last time I tried to play HoN there was ddos attack.
And now this time it's bad data! WTH ARE S2 DOING!?
I dont have internet at home right now so my playtime is limited.
And when I finally get some time to play this **** happends!

So srsly, yes this is annoying!
And I understand that these things take time but when I pay for a game I expect to be able to play it WHEN I WANT TO!
Not when it's letting me...

[voo]

If you buy a car and a few weeks later you realize something's wrong with it you don't go back to the shop and say "fix it", and start complaining when they don't correct it in 5 minutes.


maybe its you who should shut up. if the employee tells me he will be done with fixing my car in 5 minutes and i am already waiting 20 i ****ing will start to complain. thats for sure.

[Allnighte]

Is it so hard to understand that people wanna know when they can play the game again?

is it so hard to realize that if they knew how long it would take, and if it wasn't going to be very shortly, that they would tell you?

wait nevermind

i'm sure if you keep spamming the forums, they'll work harder

herp derp herp derp herp derp herp derp herp derp herp derp herp derp

[revan_xp]

Seems S2 is learning how to keep community correctly updated. Way to go

[No_ObCak3]

Wow... These retards are mad..
1) If LoL is that great: GO PLAY LoL

2) The Constant Patches are amazing: Keeps people on there toes and makes the game constantly evolve

3) If your that mad at this game: Maybe you should go die... Just sayin?

[Hedrok]

S2 community is like a hungry 1 year old baby, just crying over more information and food (patch notes)

How long will it take? I mean, Can't you do these things periodically so that we can know when you'll have to work on something.

Srsly! Last time I tried to play HoN there was ddos attack.
And now this time it's bad data! WTH ARE S2 DOING!?
I dont have internet at home right now so my playtime is limited.
And when I finally get some time to play this **** happends!

So srsly, yes this is annoying!
And I understand that these things take time but when I pay for a game I expect to be able to play it WHEN I WANT TO!
Not when it's letting me...

your forgetting the broken tables, some1 else got more?

[SonicDeath]

Okaaaay then. Another movie ....

[Boberg]

is it so hard to realize that if they knew how long it would take, and if it wasn't going to be very shortly, that they would tell you?
[/size]

And how can you be so sure? Seeing they said 10 minutes, but didn't make it, they can aswell just update again and say that it will take longer than expected? Just anything.

[peep_show]

Will everyone without a clear insight into how the software business and more relevant the indie-game business works please shut the **** up. It's not like there's a big red button on the wall of S2Games office that says "FIX IT".

If you buy a car and a few weeks later you realize something's wrong with it you don't go back to the shop and say "fix it", and start complaining when they don't correct it in 5 minutes.

These things they've had problems with are serious things and with my limited knowledge I'd say it's a few rather complicated things they're dealing with. Networking architecture is not really legos...

So please. STFU, you will be able to feed mid with SS soon.


oh look its someone else getting on there high horse suggesting we all need experience software business operation in order to legitimately complain about poor service.

oh and look there the same retarded/generic analogy that is totally wrong and inappropriately applied to this scenario 'imagine if you owned a dead goat and that goat...... yadadaddad make no sense, make no sense.'

its just garbage to read.

[Extremoduro]

At least they're giving us info now... I still remember that DDoS attack without any info from S2.

Seriously, just get a life. Take a walk, go jogging, excercize. The lot of you surely needs it.
It is a game. If patching takes some hours, it does take some hours. Who cares?
Have patience, read a book. Do something important to increase your welfare. HoN should be an addition to you life, not it itself.

Should it be an addition? Says who? If they want it to be their life, let them.

[Sweating]

Wow... These retards are mad..
1) If LoL is that great: GO PLAY LoL

2) The Constant Patches are amazing: Keeps people on there toes and makes the game constantly evolve

3) If your that mad at this game: Maybe you should go die... Just sayin?

you mad?










































































yea you :madm:

[Tankie]

New patch is up!!!

[D4NY]

when I pay for a game I expect to be able to play it WHEN I WANT TO!
Not when it's letting me...

HoN was operational more then 99.9% for a year after launch. After the DDOS attack we have seen down time as they are still working on the new architecture for the game.

for you unsatisfied people: WoW have been down more due to patch time and server maintance this year then HoN have been down, problem? :ramp: Go to wow forums and see if anyone from blizzard gives a **** if you cry while they are having maintenance (in other words fixing ****, like S2 is doing now). You could actually consider what happening to HoN a big maintenance since they are fixing up their whole system, people should be glad if they can even play at all.

[Sgt_Justice]

Well spoken :blac:
like the complete opposite of well spoken......how can he tell people to go exercise and get a life when he is sitting on a ****ing hon forum

I just studied like 3-4 days for an exam I just had and now I want some relaxation time for myself. Bad weather outside so I can't do much and I wanted to play HoN but ofc I can't. Does that mean I need a life? I don't think your sugestion applies to all. Just saying.

Actually, I do have a life. Thats why, when I get home from work, when my girlfriend is off doing something else, I get annoyed when I cannot play something I have such a small window of time to play. I can get maybe around 3 matches of HoN a day but today I have only had 1 (and I'll probably not have another), so don't try to act all high and mighty and judging of everyone.

I think you should actually read the last sentence of your post, as you obliviously do not stick to your own reasoning.

[moruQ]

In the meantime I think we will move over the patch notes to appease all of you. :P

i cant found them




btw. 10 miN WTF ?

[Borelax]

I'm not mad that it's taking longer than expected but S2, but saying 10 minutes to a bunch of people eagerly waiting to play isnt very smart:p

[empty]

You guys got also Login-Issues: bad data etc?

HoN does! S2 games sucks! go make another version of Pacman, and see if it doesnøt **** up! i payed over 80$ for this game, thats for: Creation of account 30$, Coins about 30$ and last reset account about 20$. STOP THINKING ABOUT MAKING MONEY YOU GREEDY WHORES! TRY MAKE A GAME FOR THE PEOPLE! I SHOUDL SUE YOU FOR THIS! BUT I AM ONLY 16 SO WTF CAN I DO ABOUT IT!? **** YOU S2 games, YOU SUCK.

[Shapeshifter]

Why is everyone crying about stats and stuff?
Did I miss understood it or are stats rolled back to yesterday 7 am EDT anyways?
So any of your leaves won't be counted. And to everyone who says S2 is a bad company, watch this and you'll know they are actually not all about the money. They want the game to be good and in my opinion they are making it better with almost every patch, so stop the whine and wait an hour and I guess it will be fixed by then. Otherwise, call some friends and go hang out somewhere.

The fact that you payed over $80 for this makes it kinda stupid that you address your anger at S2, you not being able to win at MM for coins is amusing.
Plus you must realize that you cant play at the moment because of Ddos attacks, They are trying to handle it but its quite hard. My guess is that you have no idea what a Ddos attack even is, you're 16.
They had a perfectly running strong game for a year+.

Faster than those guys ?
You should be glad there are some updates and not like : Start patching....
