Let's talk Rail Nation Masters

Samisu · Mar 7th 2018, 11:09pm

Yup,

Masters is laggy, signing in takes time and it all turns into frustration. I can completely understand that and there's no excuses for such performance issues. It can take another try or two before players can move forward from the loading screen, and then it can take more time to open different game windows, set schedules etc. At times it works better and at times it's like pulling the trains yourself out there...

I hope to bring good news soon and again, we are sorry for these performance issues and for all the frustration this has caused you.

The final is coming and the server for the worse, slower and slower, is a master disaster, the desire to play is removed

Samisu · Mar 8th 2018, 11:42am

Alright,

the best and fastest "fix" for now is to move to multi-slot engines like Olympus and Centaur. This will let the server "breathe" and it should run a lot better. This will also help with the endgame, as the number of engines will not go any higher from here.

Right now the DEVS are cursing me for my years of proselytizing the use of Lindworms over Olympii.... (ducks and hides)

Chalk up one more for the Olympus crowd. Possibly the best argument yet!

BryantrainZ · Mar 8th 2018, 7:45pm

so I have to wait for everyone to have the Olympus, before we can get back into the game? (I'm trying for 20 minutes)

and after almost 40 minutes I managed to get into the game; how lucky I am

elloco76 · Mar 8th 2018, 8:32pm

another solution would be for all players to put half of the trains or can be remove half of the players ........you are aware that it is a little laughable your thinking and the best is your blog notes that have nothing to do with reality ....

Samisu, you are very funny, really !!

It's very entertaining to read you !! it's like the marx brothers: "
It is better to remain silent and to be taken for a fool, than to open it and leave no doubt about it. "
I look forward to reading your next post

have patience, is trying to defend the indefensible and should not be pleasant even for him

----------------------------------

but it is they who wanted to impose a game engine that they can not sustain, it is certainly not our fault

and even worse, have disabled the ability to cancel the account, because if they had left active, there would have been a real escape (I primarily) and the survivors now would play better

but if the next masters you will all be there to sign up, then do not complain anymore, because you knew what you were going to meet

-----------------------------------------------------------------

and this morning there are continuous system reboots; fantastic, but really unplayable

Almost impossible to play now - crashes every few minutes

RN should return all payments made for Gold, Plus Accounts etc..

Maybe a class action against them??

cawa99aa · Mar 9th 2018, 2:51pm

So are you buying gold? and without gold you can not play?

Yep Cawa - I like to play with the Plus Account

Samisu · Mar 9th 2018, 6:13pm

After a long research, we have found a server setting that allows faster processing of user requests.

However, this also leads to a rather uncritical error message, which asks you to leave the game / log in again.

Please ignore or disregard this error message and click next to the window instead.

Of course, we are still working on improving the situation.

Geoff DC - for 3 years bought with only 300 gold, usually win competitions; you need to pay money for quality content, not for ...

Renegatos · Mar 9th 2018, 10:04pm

internal errors - after five logouts and in again i lost my patience - everything takes to long and it is no fun at all.

about chance of winning - there is none as long as some players put lots of money in. i'll do the last days just for the gold but not for fun or winning.

masters is not the right term for it and the term i have in my mind ----- well

BryantrainZ · Mar 10th 2018, 9:00am

the new server is more efficient but there are still continuous error messages,to visualize the requests of a farm and a city it often takes more attempts and always a lot of time; to set or change the program of a single train almost always takes a long time and even the videos of the station are blocked continuously; ........ we are still far away ..

Renegatos · Mar 11th 2018, 6:14pm

cannot wait for the masters to end and i will for sure never Play such a game again.

it is still to slow with continous forced logouts.

i tried to Change the shedule for 15 Trains and including buying needed wagons i got kicked out 5 times before i succeeded.

only 2 more days - i just cannot wait.

:thumbdown:

BryantrainZ · Mar 12th 2018, 12:30am

ps. .. error messages should be ignored, do not click on it

---------------------------------------------------------------------

but ....... the program is not good at math:

i saved a program for all trains, I send them to do something else, then
reload the program and the system asks me to buy wagons (????)
it's the third time that happens

one tick a day

BryantrainZ · Mar 12th 2018, 12:08pm

from this morning all the slowdowns are back ... promises a fun finale :((((((

Samisu · Mar 12th 2018, 12:47pm

NEWS!

We will restart the Masters server with final preparations for the endgame. The restart will take a few minutes, starting at 12:00 UTC.

We kindly ask players not to refresh too often when the endgame starts, because this leads to a heavier load on the server. In most cases refreshing might not even help.

Thank you for your understanding.
