Eve online server status2/20/2023 ![]() It is the fact that it shows a lack of attention to detail that bothers me. Okay, so EverQuest isn’t down that much any more and, well, it is EverQuest, so who even cares? The person whose job it is to change that text when the servers are down either forgot or is out of the office, and since it is obviously not automated, the text remains the same. What irks me, of course, is that the server status, all that static text in bold green in the middle of the page, indicates that the servers are all up. Since it was 9am, the servers were obviously still down for that maintenance period. Of course, the EverQuest network status page showed all servers up.Īt the bottom of the page there was an entry about the servers being down for six hours starting at 5am today. This morning I went to log onto EverQuest and, after going through three of the screens through which you must pass in order to get into the game, I got a notification that the server, Luclin, was down and that I should go check the network status page for details. One of my MMO pet peeves, probably the only one that I have actually complained about multiple times on official forums, is the availability and reliability of server status information. They have now added more games and tinkered with the information displayed, including the freshness of any given status. SOE seems to be continuing work on the page. It is interesting to see that of the EQ servers, only Fippy Darkpaw and Antonius Bayle are running at a load level other than “low.” I will have to check back on patch day and see if status and reality actually align now for SOE. Alphabetical sorting by server name would be appreciated.īut otherwise, SOE seems to going in the right direction with this. ![]() Test might pass for a region I suppose, but where is “live?”Īnd the sorting of the servers is obviously based on some database key not visible in the display. I suppose the Vanguard servers are touched so infrequently that assuming they are up is safe.Īnd the region data column seems to be only partially populated. Currently it only displays the status for EverQuest II, EverQuest, Star Wars Galaxies, and DC Universe Online. ![]()
