Yep, that server crash just now on Washington.

Extremely expensive/rare unique maps + server crash killing the instance and all portals is inexcusable.

You can't have content this rare/costly with unstable servers. My friend just lost vinktar square on essence. That's like 160c+. Perandus manor is the only map where the hit is worse. Some players scrimp and save and pool together to complete these for challenges or shaper orbs. GGG needs a better system in place to handle server crashes during unique maps.

Yeah, on DC servers as well here. Haven't lost anything terribly expensive, but my ping for most of the night has been shooting around between 40ms and 400ms. I think I died on my trapper about four times tonight because of this. Not even to bosses, like I got those on lock-down, but it's to me setting up to kill large packs, ping shoots up, and bounces back to me being dead. If I'm lucky I manage to get my endurance charges up, and some vortex traps down. If I'm lucky.

its not just the dc servers though its also happening on the texas servers as well
Don't confuse your connection issues with a server problem, checked technical and there are NO reports of DC's around that time that would indicate a server packing in.

And by that i mean it dose not look like this

That's because it's fucking pointless to bitch about it in technical when you're able to immediately log back on. There's no need for support when you are able to log back on right away. Hence, we have venting and feedback. Telling GGG to have a better system in place for when server crashes eat expensive unique maps is absolutely valid feedback. (personally I'd prefer to see content gated by difficulty, not currency/rarity, but if GGG wants to have such expensive/scarce unique maps (and require them for shapers orbs and challenges) it's piss poor service/quality standards to let your servers destroy them and leave your customers with nada - a better solution has to be possible).

With respect to the crash referenced by the OP:

If it's your connection (or something between you and the server) that causes a disconnect you don't lose all your map portals if you log back on right away. When all the map portals instantly poof (because the instance is eliminated) it's a server crash. There are other obvious signs as well (I'm using 3 monitors for my gaming PC and have a U of computers around me for work stuff, on a 1000 mbps fiber - if I have network issues, I know).

Additionally:
- I was in my ho and got booted to login.
- A friend was in vinktar square and got booted to login. All his portals ripped. He was in the map for less than 2 minutes and came back on in less than 1 minute.
- 6 people in my guild were in a 3v3 CTF match and they all got booted to login.
- When I logged back on, there was a massive pile of people standing in town who also just logged on.

But even if you don't believe it happened, that doesn't negate the feedback at all. Your belief is irrelevant. Providing feedback to GGG that they can and should improve what happens to unique maps when a server crashes is what matters here.
