Concrete proof finally provided that the 2002 error has NOTHING is server side issue

[Kes13a]

What they really need to do is enhance the launcher/login process to auto-rejoin the queue automatically if any 2002 shows up. If you get d/c'd, that spot should be saved longer as well. Among other QoL things that probably wouldn't take more than a day to add in the system.

Like who thought it was going to be acceptable to throw the error while you say 2k deep into a 4k queue and somehow didn't come back in-time to manually put your OTP back in and then lose your place. Awful design.

what seems odd is that it obviously requires a condition to cause the 2002. what is the condition it requires? the process does work or no one would be able to log in period, so some factor is obviously causing the disconnect in the first place, and only happens sometimes, or no one would be able to play...period.

software either works or it doesnt, it doesnt decide "oh I dont like you, goodbye" there is a condition being met somewhere that is prompting some people to get repeated 2002 errors while other never or hardly see them. I have been in 3700 person queues, dont babysit and get in fine after my wait. others on here may get mostly through then hit, or get in only 10 or 15 deep before it happens.

there seems to be little reason behind what causes it, but it does not seem completely random if you believe the same people are having the issue consistently.

This is false, getting error 2002 doesn't prevent u from playing the game. It prevents u from logging into the game server IF u are not quick enough to just rejoin the queue.

or no one would be able to play...period.

Incorrect for the same reason above.

software either works or it doesnt

Again incorrect, software is not an ON/OFF switch, it can work and still have multiple bugs/issues. Please stop making assumptions based on ur own experience when u clearly got no idea.

yes, but if it did not work AT ALL, then everyone would get 2002 and no one could log in. there are those that do not get this error. therefore, it is conditional. point out how that is "false"

Incorrect for the same reason above.

please feel free to post the entire part where I said, once in, the 2002 error would prevent you from playing?

did you even read and understand what I said?

I said, there is some condition being met that prompts the 2002 error. if software runs into a certain condition, it will error. not everyone is seeing this error. so a condition is being met which drops the connection. this does not happen for everyone. it is possible, can the software work with a bug, it certainly can, but the programmers have a running joke about bugs and errors being caused by "unintended application" which means the user is doing something outside the regular recommended workflow. in this case, something in the connection is causing an unintended response.

no need to be antagonistic, I am in no way saying its not a code issue, there are issues with their code no doubt. just pointing out that it seems consistent for some, but not all. which leads me to suspect its more than just bad code. good to know your first forum post was so benign. I get it, you are frustrated, a lot of people are.

yes, but if it did not work AT ALL, then everyone would get 2002 and no one could log in.

And i repeat again, getting 2002 DOES NOT prevent u from logging in. It just disconnects u from the queue and u can jump back in at THE SAME position if u are fast enough to do so. So u are absolutely wrong when u state that "no one could log in".

please feel free to post the entire part where I said, once in, the 2002 error would prevent you from playing?

You just said

then everyone would get 2002 and no one could log in.

Which is incorrect.

did you even read and understand what I said?

Yes, hence the suggestion to stop making assumptions when u clearly got no idea.

but the programmers have a running joke about bugs and errors being caused by "unintended application" which means the user is doing something outside the regular recommended workflow.

Me and my wife are playing over the same internet provider using exactly the same router from the same apartment. She will have error 2002 while i wont and in 1 hour i will have it and she wont. So i got no idea what the SE's "intended application" of their software is, but my wife and me where clearly using it as intended prior to EW since we were never getting error 2002 back then and suddenly we are NOT using it as intended after EW launch. Your logic is just flawed.

lol, fine, you win.

I have little interest in arguing on the internet so I will go back to playing the game.

have a wonderful day and hope your issue is sorted soon. good luck
