egadgetboy Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 This is the very first day I've been around Technic/Hexxit, so I have nothing to compare it to. But sadly, I've noticed that both the Technic Launcher and the Hexxit website has been down or having errors much of the day while I have been trying to start a private server. It definitely makes me have second thoughts now; especially since none of us can download the necessary items in order to play. I posted my comment here, hoping it's in the right location. And because it's not Hexxit specific...attempts to download Tekkit (just to see) failed as well. This has been between the hours of 10am and 9pm central time today. I looked around and see no intermittent outages being reported. Is this what I should expect from Technic, or is there something odd going on today? Sincere thanks...
dwwojcik Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 No, I think you just have bad timing. Technic has been very reliable for me the month I've been a member of the forums. I have been playing Tekkit for probably about 4 -5 months before I signed up.
freakachu Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 the servers get hammered on weekends due to the sheer number of people playing. I won't say it's uncommon because it happens every so often, but it isn't frequent and I'm sure Top Men are working to improve the experience for everyone during heavy load periods even as we speak. hang in there and it will be much better shortly. edit: it's probably worse recently because of hexxit's release. the curse of popularity.
PrimitiveKnows Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 I haven't been able to get on tekkit or hexxit all day. Launcher fails to connect with any pack now. I've been looking through the forums all day and seen many people with the same issues but no fixes. When I try to go to hexxit web page I get a 504. I would assume server host problems but... Hope they get it fixed soon. I'm jones'n for my mods. Can't take over the world if I can't even get into it.
Vivacity Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 The servers are definitely slower then before. As freakachu said a lot of people are playing Hexxit now, it's attracted a lot of current users to play something new and probably introduced a new group of users who prefer adventure over machines.
dwwojcik Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 The site and launcher died when Tekkit came out, and Hexxit couldn't download for a while after it came out, but other than that it's been fine for me.
Forum Administrators sct Posted July 15, 2013 Forum Administrators Posted July 15, 2013 This should be mostly resolved. I did some work on the servers today to alleviate some of the stress (including an extra Solder node)
