Upload Issues - MP WTC Rd 10 - Gazala
Posted: Thu Jun 16, 2022 6:05 am
I noticed some weird issues with the savegames in Gazala in MP
There were no ordinary crashes so far as has happened in the past (Unreal Engine), but the upload is really strange.
I got error messages like user offline, failure to connect to tcp server and the likes.
Now this sounds like a network problem, but I am online the entire time.
Now what really stands out
1. When loading a turn, moving some units, and uploading it without submitting it - I had it now several times that the game forgets the progress and starts the turn from zero. This already happened in the deployment phase.
2. Even stranger, I had the crash msg decribed above when I tried to submit the turn.
So I had to replay it, did so, did not submit, but quit to check if progress is saved.
When I loaded the turn immediately again, I was puzzled that it showed the progress that had failed to upload in the first place due to a connection/login problem.
Now this looks like a server rollback to me and also proves that this network issue is not really on part of the player, but server-related - pretty much in line with what Trepko & Brausebad experienced when game progress vanished
3. Also strange, the game crashed twice on upload with the Unreal error msg, but the turn was submitted after restarting the game.
Please look into this, as it makes MP very frustrating and time consuming
