I get disconnected a lot!

I get disconnected a lot. It always "an unexpected disconnection has occurred"

I'm loving the game, but I'd like to know if it's a problem on my end or if its the game.

I do run Windows 7 on bootcamp with my mac, sometimes windows is a little buggy on bootcamp. I don't know. But I just want to report this. It happens a lot.

It's inconsistent, sometimes I can go 3 hours with a DC. Sometimes I get DC'd 3 or 4 times per hour. I don't know, but it's annoying.

It's usually just a disconnection and it brings me straight back to the login screen and I can usually log back in right away.

I've also played a bunch of games through bootcamp and never had much problems. So I doubt its me, so it might be something that could be fixed.

A straight disconnection from the server can be one of two things. 1) Your internet connection 2) the Servers acing up. Seeing how the game just had a huge influx of players, one can assume the servers are acting up and disconnecting people. I am having a lot of trouble with this! Just now I got kicked out trying to zone to another zone. It is annoying but should clear up soon hopefully!

I'm having the same problem as well. Its hard to enjoy a game when you get disconnected every 10-20 minutes. I hope this issue gets addressed. I've already switched servers, direct connect to my modem and reset my modem and nothings worked yet.

ya I just DC'd again. I had a portal down trying to take out the Act 2 boss. ARGH! but I need to grind anyways...

Just got DC'd for the 3rd time this hour. Would be nice to know if its server overload or a problem on my end. I never have problems with other games like this.

Just got DCed trying to go back to town via waypoint. This is starting to suck!

This is the big weekend for PoE, and servers are likely over load, with website also being hosted on some other server.

Their under a huge stress right now

Likewise. I'm located in California/US, and connected to the America server.

I checked my router, modem, bandwidth, and ISP before heading to the forums. It appears to be something on the GGG end, probably overloaded servers.

Honestly, it's no big deal and the launch is pretty impressive for an indie game with a staff of under 10. It would be nice to resolve this issue, but GGG may be in a position where "Open Beta Weekend Attendance = X" while "Projected Normal Attendance = Y", and the only way to account for "X" is to buy more servers...which would be wasted once the attendance fell to "Y".

Imagine buying a home that houses 3 people, but having everyone over for Christmas/Kwanza/Hannukah once a year. Do you double the size of your house for this one event, or gut it out until the event is over?

i get timedout like 5 times, died i hc 2 times today, seems some one is crashing the servers again.
