What the server is experiencing currently, is network lag that has been here for ~5-7 days which is being worked on and has already been addressed previously by Dacon. In terms of the in-game bugs/glitches, we are very much aware of them, and we are constantly reporting issues, not all of them have been around from the release of season 2, some of them are recent, but
ALL of them are being looked into.
We are not ignoring the fact that there are issues on the server, but of course the state of Olympus isn’t at it’s peak currently. Less than a month ago, Olympus experienced a total reset, where everyone’s progress was set back, and also huge, game changing new additions and changes have been added. There will most definitely be issues, nothing will be entirely perfect at all times, however there also aren’t immediate fixes to these kinds of things. The main concern at the moment is the network lag, once a permanent solution has been worked out for this, then Olympus will be the main concern again - The server is still playable, whether or not there are issues within the server, it doesn’t ultimately prevent you playing, it may alter your experience slightly as some things still need to be worked on and refurbished, but the server is still accessible.
Every single server you find, will experience issues that take a while to fix and come to a proper solution. Every update that the players need to know can be found in the much afore mentioned places and ways. While we completely and utterly understand each and every one of your concerns and opinions and frustrations, we still require patience and trust that things are being worked on. If there are any notable changes, they are documented in any and all of the updates areas throughout ManaCube (whether that’s the forums, in-game or discord).
Constant updates and tracking the progress of issues aren’t always reliable; for example when Trench was first disabled, Dacon suggested a rough estimate of 36-48 hours and when it surpassed this, that’s all the Olympus community spoke about. If we did update players with the progress of every single issue, then there would be no progress made on the actual reparations, and/or if for instance something goes wrong and something must be delayed, there will just be complaints. We’re trying our best and we understand that we can’t make everyone happy, there will always be complaints, no matter what happens.
Whether it’s Trench, or Mob drops, or the tinkerer, there will always be people who are unhappy with how things are at the moment, but what you need to understand is Dacon and the staff members have lives too, there are a lot of bugs, so it will take a lot of time in order to deal with everything, but that doesn’t mean that the server is dying or that nothing is being done just because you don’t see what’s going on behind closed doors.
I very, very strongly urge you to take a look through all of the available ways to view updates, if you know of a bug and are unsure if anything is being done, report it to a member of staff, or report it here
https://forums.manacube.com/forums/bug-reports/. We really appreciate the patience, and we don’t like the bugs and issues any more than you do, however we just have to remain patient and trust that things are being done - If Dacon truly didn’t care like most people are implying, then the servers wouldn’t get new seasons, the new additions and changes wouldn’t be added and worked on, the staff wouldn’t report any bugs as there’d be no point. The players don’t see the work that we as staff members do to try and ensure everyone has an enjoyable experience on the server. We appreciate all of the feedback and love hearing opinions, but all we ask in return is for respect, patience and cooperation.
