90K Errors

[BenjaminLee]

Posting the usual 90K errors again. Happens when I'm Q'd for DF or in Mist.

I only get 90K in Frontlines, and I'm not sure why. Unless those DDoS attacks are still in full force, I'm not what the cause is. It's been happening since 2.4 and I've been avoiding FL, thinking it would go away with time, but I just came out of a match in which I 90K'd 7 times.

All other instances are fine, it's just FL for some reason.

Likewise- PS4 user here, but from talking to other users in FL it happens across platforms, and it's hard to go a single Frontlines match without one person or another getting 90k'd out. It is intensely frustrating and can mean the difference between success and failure for a party. We've noticed it seems travel related. If the team could confirm they are investigating would be appreciated. Thanks!

^I'm on PC, but still the same issue

I keep 90k myself also. I think its the attacks again and what not. Because it been doing it to me all day.

I get 90k in FL every 5 minutes really frusturating cause this never happened before 2.4 nor did the lag and dc's what have they changed to cause this?

[Buff_Archer]

I think the FL 90k disconnects are completely unrelated to the DDoS attacks and hope they're being investigated as such. While the DDoS attacks came and went in a few waves/spikes, these have been a constant for players who not normally encounter these issues, since 2.4 at least. I think it's only because there aren't more players participating in this content that there hasn't been as much attention called to the matter... if this were in one of the new dungeons for example there would have been an uproar and it would be resolved. However, such a QoL issue discourages players from continuing to play, increases queues for potential new players trying out the content, and impedes its overall growth by limiting it to those who are willing to live with the issue vs simply do other content.

So I tried FL today and did about 10 matches, I kept getting 90K to the point where I'm forced to warn my party that I WILL 90K and risk getting kicked instantly.

Again, all other instanced content is ok except FL where it can (and has) happened 3 or 4 times in a minute, always en route to another flag. I know I can't expect a response from some kind of SE staff on these forums but I'm basically down to just wishing really hard.

Im facing the same kind of problems, i just recently decided to do FL's i did pvp before but it wasnt until FL that it was more enjoyable, i really want to like it, specially with a HUGE rank requirement for the sweet looking armors, but getting 90k'ed twice every minute is just making people kick me inmediatly, my progression wont go as smoothly (or wont go at all) as i would like it

So I have a question for those of you who only 90K in FL: When you 90k, are you mounted and travelling? The key thing here is if you are mounted.
I got really discouraged with finding any kind of solution to the problem on the FF forums so I checked reddit and found a thread by someone experiencing the same issue.

The first post mentioned that it only occurred to him while mounted and so I got REALLY desperate and tried a couple (literally just 2, it's late lol) matches where I ran throughout the map on foot while travelling between flags.
In the first match, I tried first travelling on foot from the spawn point (where I 90K 90% of the time without fail) and on foot, I was fine. Then in the same match I tried mounting and travelling and 5 seconds later, I d/c'd lol.

So, I'm not exactly convinced it's an issue with mounts (sample size of 2 lol) but the next match, I ONLY travelled on foot and got no d/cs at all, literally running from flag to flag and back across the whole map to all OPs, including helio. Travelled through the spawn point several times too, again without issue, on foot. I plan on testing more tomorrow but if is indeed a mount issue that affects others besides me, maybe we can actually report it as a bug and get the issue looked into?

/wishfulthinking

Addendum: I think most would say it's probably a routing problem that sorted itself out at this time of night, but I experience these 90Ks at all hours of the day on any day, so I'm not entirely convinced yet.
