    Puffknight I need me some PIE!

    Hello,
    I know that this may not be the place where to post this but its the place with the most visibility.
    I'm from Europe/Romania and since this morning I cannot login to the game server and the poxnora.com loads very slow, when it loads that is.

    I'm using the steam version of the game, and just make this clear, I only have loading issues with pox nora , everything else works just fine.

    Is this a general issue ? Are there other players experiencing this after the new expansion ?

    Thanks

    I'll let this stay in GD for now. Carry on. Also, bump.

    Managed to log in finally , but its like 2 minutes to switch between lobbies. Unplayable for me at this time. I reinstalled java, flushed DNS , cleared Browser DNS, cleared tem and old prefetch data etc. Dunno what else to do..

    ---> Bought two mega boxes thus far and it pisses me off that I cannot play it... It worked just fine until this morning , and I have made no changes to the PC . Opened steam , ther was an update in pending for pox, I guess the hotfix, let the update through , opened the game and poof could not login , some NULL stull error.

    The game can be laggy right after new expansions. But your issues sounds rather extreme.

    Its something to do with the Poxnora server as a whole , since even the webpage is laggy for me. All other pages load up in a second, pox takes 1 - 2 minutes. Tried different browsers , same , removed AV and all other stuff that may interfere , same.

    just curious , for people who joined the game through steam,, what would happen if they just dl client to desk top and sign in this way?,, or is there even a sign in for pox when using steam? do you sign into steam then you just click on pox to play?

    Yes , sign in to Steam then play Pox.

    You have to use the Steam version of Pox in Steam because all of the Rune Manager, Marketplace, etc. interface is actually run through Steam itself. If you want a standalone then you can download it from https://www.poxnora.com/download.do

    To clearify on what @themacca said, it is how your ISP is routing you to the website. A simple explanation would be does your connection go through 5 datacenters to get to our server or 15 and if one or more of those data centers is getting slammed for any reason that will slow it down. Or, this can be caused if how data is being routed is being updated. Let us know if this continues to be an issue for you.
