Broken Arrow - Multiplayer Open Beta Access and Reconnect Server Issues
Due to server problems, Broken Arrow multiplayer playtest is not so open anymore. The issue is quite serious.
Broken Arrow is an upcoming RTS game which takes us in the middle of fictional conflict between the United States of America and Russia. Of course, the player takes a role of a commander whose task is to defeat the opponent. Right now, players can take part in Multiplayer Open Beta. However, it is not so open anymore due to server issues.
Broken Arrow - Multiplayer Open Beta Access Issues and Server Problems
From the beginning of the Multiplayer Open Beta players have problems with connection to servers. Many people reported issues with not being online or pending reconnect alert. On Steam and Discord, developers shared posts in which they explain the situation.
The main server is not able to handle so many players. Creators had to stop accepting registrations to open beta automatically and they do it manually. The situation will be like that until the problem is taken care of.
It also means that you have to be prepared for various technical issues like problems with online connection or reconnection to servers. However, developers calm down players:
Once you start a match the trafic is redirected to the game servers so you can still play even if you are disconnected from the main server.
We have plenty of game servers, much more than needed actually given the overlying problem.
If you are disconnected from the main server while playing you will not gain any XP but the core of the game will continue to work. So my advice: if you are connected jump in a match as soon as possible.
