Hey everypony, check this out. Guillaumedk uploaded a video featuring LoE's panel at Galacon.



It's pretty cool, they showed the PvP zone, talked a little about leveling up, I think they mentioned something about the marks, the quests, the items.

PS: he also uploaded other videos covering different events of Galacon.

Hi.

I have been wondering, will this panel at Everfree Northwest be available for nonatendees Live? Since I can't make it to Seattle and from my city I'll probably miss the first half anyways will it be available somewhere in LoE's youtube or facebook?

Was anypony there when we were talking about the "I survived the April server shutdown, and all I got was this lousy T-shirt" after about when the game was at 5?  :3


Yep, there for about 2 extra hours. I liked the short lived conga line. Then I tried going out of SCC and instead got skyrocketed by a flower pot into the ceiling and stuck between walls. Couldn't move, the camera was all messed up and /stuck didn't work so I logged out.

It was so much fun, all of the OSW. Thanks everypony.

So far this is what I've found.

When traveling, the game will crash (stop working). The ONLY exception is Cantermore, it loads fine regardless of where you come from. HOWEVER, when you crash and the game is closed, if you reopen the game, re-log in and reload the place where the game crashed you WILL get there and start playing. In other words every time you travel the game crashes but you can keep playing if you reopen everything.

There are other horrible exceptions. The Evershade Forest and Sweet Apple Orchard will crash when trying to get in, even if you reopen everything you will get stuck crashing every time you try to load them.

Starting with a pegasus or earth pony will get you stuck loading Cloudopolis and Ponydale respectively.

One of my unicorns got stuck in Sweet Apple Orchards and somehow hours later I managed to load the area and get unstuck. This may also apply to Cloudopolis and Ponydale, leading to pegasus and earth ponies being around if lucky. I got another unicorn stuck in SAO (no, not that SAO) and haven't been able to unstuck it again, so very unreliable luck.

I was in the Mines attacking some dogs and the game room closed and kicked me out. Then I got the server list of "Cutie marks... Downloaded. Maps... Downloaded. Whatever it was... Done" instead of the real server list. It stayed for a while, even after closing and reopening. To fix it I decompressed the original download file in the same folder as last time clicking "Replace all files".

Lastly. Turns out we can actually play with February 21 build. And that build doesn't crash after loading maps or traveling. There are new things available in this build that wasn't in the last like a few fixed quests (and I think there are more NPCs this time), but last build doesn't crash. I'll try to get a pegasus in the last build get it out of cloudopolis and into cantermore and play it with the new build. It worked to get my unicorns unstuck from SAO and Evershade so I hope it works.

It sounds like devs don't even bother to read this forum.  :I

OSX one should be going up any second now.


Looks like they do.

New builds are up. One for 32 bits windows and one for Mac OSX. Downloading.

So kept trying.

Can't go to Ponydale as a unicorn, once I try the game keeps trying to load me there and crashes.

Couldn't go to Crystal Kingdom directly, but when I relogged in it actually loaded me into it. Same with the Heartlands, couldn't go directly (game stopped working) but upon relogging in it loaded me into it.

Cloudopolis is unavailable too.

Also, whenever I crash (game stops working) and I relogg in I can't use the same server I used last time. Message says "user is already playing". But using the other server loads me fine.

Problem is cloudopolis.

If you start with a pegasus you load Cloudopolis directly and crash the game (stopped working).

If you are a unicorn you load fine, but if you go into cloudopolis through the blimp the game crashes while loading the map (stopped working).

I have to try for other places like Ponydale, etc. Will be back in a few minutes.

Yeah, a couple of quests seem to be bugged, but that just makes it so that they can be fixed. This is pre-Alpha so we can look forward to the non-bugged full game.

Quests are nice and all, but the true beauty is the game itself, I'm loving the experience so much.

Sorry, but I've already given up.

I've already accepted my fate to never be able to play this game ever again.


What are you talking about? The game is super playable, the crystal kingdom and ponydale are fairly easy to get into. Cantermore for some reason seems to be super busy, it's so hard to find a spot there. Why did you give up?

Also, does anyone know of good places to go? Like the evershade forest or a shop or a quest? I'd like to go on a quest but can't find any NPC for that. Help, please.

It's not really a glitch, per se. It's just that it's sort've..."stuck" at a loading screen due to the overloaded servers.  :s
As it is, that's technically what it's supposed to do in this circumstance. I believe the mods/devs are trying to widen the limit of players in each server while still trying to maintain a well-running game. You know, without overbearing lag.  :/


Interesting, so instead of having "servers full" they have waiting lists within the servers once the maps have been loaded. Thus preventing unbeliavable lag and the sad faces of people who can't even connect and load maps.

:]I will just try each hour. eventually I will get in!  :P


I like this attitude! So shall I try until the eventual event of me getting in eventually comes! (I actually mean it, it's not sarcasm)

Also Aerial View Glitch sounds nice maybe call it AVGlitch or something?

Still stuck at "Server Listing Status"! Somepony help! D: Can't tell if its from the DDoS or my connection! :/


It is quite possibly your connection. I am getting three servers listed "Equus", "Europa" and the so mentioned "Levade" (amazing by the way). All of them work nicely and respond fast.

I'm also stuck in aerial view. I tried the 64x version, the 32x one, the one downloaded from the launcher. I created a unicorn, an earth pony and a pegasus. They are all stuck in aerial view of their respective town.

Help, please?

i can't see a dragon DD:


Because the dragon was somewhere else, let me see if I can get to it and snapshot it.

Got stuck in a meadow past cantermore there were some deer like creatures hovering between trees and suddenly an invisible wall prevented me from going anywhere. I also saw a dragon in the distance it was pretty cool.

Deer things floating:

The screen suddenly darkens a little and everypony is frozen. Confirmed by comments in the chat, nopony can move. Then it goes light again and we can move, then dark and light every now and then moving and not moving. The chat works while the movement doesn't.
16
Got in, flew about 30 seconds then got timed out. I'm going in again apparently. Exiting and reopening seems to solve the room problems and character loading. It just seems like, though, not sure, probably not.
17
I'm in!!! Also amazing job with the map guys, been meaning to say it. So many buildings, and the roads and and the views and art is simply divine ;)
18
Managed to log in. Server listing displays "Equus - Ping N/A"

After a few seconds trying to connect it says "Failed to establish connection - no response from remote host".

Has anyone managed to get in?

Good to see that the servers are up again. Although I must say, what does DDoS stand for?


Distributed Denial of Service attack. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denial-of-service_attack

They were attacked by a DDoS. Maybe they are restoring the servers.

Please, LoE team, improve your server security system.


Yeah, found the announcement in Facebook and tumblr. It's so sad that people want to hurt such a delightful project, I mean how is it hurting anyone?

As for improving security it doesn't seem like it was a problem of not having enough but that the attack was too unexpected, maybe.

The forum is back, but the servers for the game are still down? I can't get in the game :I
