2/8/15 - Did netplay just become worse?

Recommended Posts

Every match I've played in the Texas room today has been kind of bizarre. Just connecting to PSN and the GG servers takes a while and connecting to other players takes many times longer than normal. In game, delay is mostly like normal (2-4f) with most players, but some players spike up to 19f, and the spike persists for 40+ seconds.

There's a lot more false-4's, which are connections that present as 4, but are actually broken connections. You can still fix them the same way (by either you or the 4 rejoining the lobby), but there's like 2-3x as many. I mean  there were more people on than normal today, but just the wait in between matches was making the game way less fun. Literally half of my time was spent with the "Please Wait" window, or at the end of the match with the transmission symbol.

I really love guilty gear, I just don't understand why the netcode and implementation is made of malice and hate. I didn't try ranked, but it's normally broken.

Something weird been going today. been getting huge delays anytime the game tries to connect, wether it is going into network, joing a lobby or readying up vs the opponent to when the match is finished, just seem to take forever. PSN notes that they know there have been issues this past week and they are looking into it.

 

Also had twice this weekend that the game would not have any particle effects in any matches, very weird, was online and offline, not sure what was with that. Went away on restarting Xrd. All in all, been a weird week.

Logged on today and couldn't get past the "Connecting to Server" prompt when the Network mode loads. PSN would give me an error every time I tried. A friend of mine got through, but everything ran real slow for him.

Whatever the case, I'd like the think the issue will be resolved as quickly as it came. Prior to this mutliplayer was running smoothly, minus the occasional random disconnect and false connection indicators.

I was trying to play with someone in my region and it said we had a 3 bar connection.  First room he made we got a host not responding message and it kicked us.  He made another room.  Repeatedly get "please wait" messages.  I entered two battles vs him and he just stood there so both times I returned to room.  I asked and he said he was in the room the whole time.  Totally busted right now.

Ah so others are getting a slew of errors too.

Such a bummer! I had buddies online who got on no problem and are playing each other in a private lobby. I can't get past the connecting screen due to NP error. :(

PSN has been giving me problems on both my PS4 and PS3 since the DDOS hack. I intermittently get a "Ethernet Cable is not connected" error, when there's clearly one connected. Can't even sign in when this happens. Typically, after a few minutes, it will sign in automatically and be fine. Sometimes it won't connect at all or be sporadic. Today, it's not connecting at all.

I hope this is fixed soon. I tried a few times tonight, and nothing. I was able to play other games online on my PS4 fine, but my go to game has been guilty gear since it released.

I need Xrd to hold me over till some Bloodborne and Mortal Kombat X. :(

I had to wait at least 1 to 2 minutes between matches to play today. I hope this issue is resolve soon.

My PS4 had similar problems post-DDOS. Had trouble connecting when all my other devices could. You could try entering PS4's safe mode to reset your settings to factory defualt (Option #4).Probably won't help fix Xrd's specific issue, but it should help your get back on PSN.

As for Xrd, how is the connection today for those who've logged on? I'm able to log on as normal.

Fine for me. I played a few matches early this morning and there were not any problems.
