So here I was, hoping to indulge myself to some Div 2 farming this morning, started Federal Emergency Bunker solo, on challenging. Only to find frozen enemies and unresponsive skills during the boss fight.
For a second I was wondering if I was still asleep but no, this is NOT the first time I've run into frozen enemies and DELTA 3 errors.
To describe with details, this is what it looked like: I was telling my sniper turret to aim and throwing seekers, which none of the skills did anything, the seekers were simply droning by feet and the turret was just... unresponsive. I shot at enemies, and the bullets don't register or damage anyone, had to switch weapons and kept trying, nothing, zelch, Nada. After what felt like 2 or three minutes or staring contest, FINALLY. "YOU HAVE BEEN DISCONNECTED FROM THE DIVSION 2 SERVERS, DELTA 3."
AND I THOUGHT THE WHOLE PURPOSE OF THAT "TBC" MAINTENANCE ON THE 14TH WAS TO IMPROVE SERVER AND CONNECTION STABILITY?
Hope you sort it out soon, this is NOT what every player wants when they log into game first thing in the morning.
Being a grumpy person in the morning aside, thank you for reading this and hope everyone stay safe and well during a time like this.
And to address the next part of the title, the summary sheet after a mission, well this one in particular.
After I was disconnected, I logged right back after making sure my connection is stable enough. I finished the mission, only to find myself staring at a summary sheet that I only a) took 4:31 minutes to complete the whole mission, and b) I've only killed 14 enemies doing so, for the whole mission???
Yes, the summary sheet was incorrect and it only calculated whoever I killed after I logged back.
I've uploaded the video I've captured to support my points, but this "log in after being disconnected with wrong data" thing has happened before, during Jefferson Trade Center this week, and I was killed trying to log back into the middle of the fight.

Minor details: I was logged back to where I was, which was cool, but NOT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BATTLE FOR GODS SAKE! The last time it happened I was killed before I could blink, more accurately, logged back in only to found myself, dead and cold on the ground.
(Imagine any cheaters use this to do speed runs for the time trials, I'm sure it's gonna make them look pretty on the leaderboards)
I haven’t had this happen to me but more often than not lately I do get disconnected at some point while I am asleep. So much so I buy my mods back from vendors before going to bed so I don’t lose out on the printer filament when I get disconnected.
Wish the would increase the amount from 300 to something higher. 300 doesn’t really last that long when making new mods. Especially since crafting mods typically never has good results at least for me. So I use the vendor as a stash to hold on to mods for me until I need more so I don’t deconstruct them for nothing after reaching the cap. Materials like these need to have a higher cap in my opinion.
Chris do you still get notifications about connection status? I used to have a constant one until the update (might have been a few updates ago) but haven’t noticed much in improvements though the notification is gone. Still having a decent amount of lag when playing but I no longer get warnings about connectivity.

Sorry couldn’t help myself. This could be a big problem to those interested in leaderboards. Especially in the general discussion forum. So many are so quick to label cheats/glitches/exploits/whatever when things like this can happen to anyone and the timer to be reset. Just like how sometimes rogue agents can cause the timer to reset or you could be having a great time only to run into rogue agents that ruin your time on a timed mission during a league event. I never thought about being disconnected in the middle of a timed mission and the timer reset when logging back in.
This really should be looked into carefully by the devs. Hopefully they will investigate things closely and not suspend everyone with questionable times on leaderboards like some are crying for.
No, if you mean "unstable connection to the server" at the bottom left of your screen. I haven't seen those in a looking while. For the other issue I used to have before TU 8 WONY, was that it would ALWAYS assigned me to the wrong server. (I'm on the west coast but it always dragged me to US Central or US East), after TU8 it finally recognized that which server I should belong to.Originally Posted by Scootsu Go to original post
But no warning, no notice when I get Delta 3. And morning hours like rn should be less busy for the internet.
Thanks for replying, scootsu.
Interesting.
Some sessions I have better luck when farming and some session enemies go down faster than others. Just curious if I could choose what server I connect to since I haven’t seen that information before but then again I haven’t really went looking for it.
Sometimes I think they might have some “test” servers for balancing or different loot quality. But that could just be the paranoid/tin foil hat/conspiracy theory part of my mind telling me those things. Sometimes they are louder than the other thoughts.
