A post was merged into an existing topic: Playing Boundless from outside Europe, North America and Australia?

Thanks to awesome dev James, for splitting the replies from the original topic and moving them to here :slight_smile:

@heureka Good to hear it is working now. Not sure what went wrong there since the server was up and running and the DNS changes should have propagated a couple of days ago. If you experience hickups later, please let me know so I can investigate.

Just a little update after another day of development and testing.

New known issues:

  • IE11 does not seem to render the charts. Needs further investigation
  • Page has a horizontal scrollbar, caused by the preview label

Next update will contain:

  • Various UI fixes, including above horizontal scrollbar issue caused by the preview label
  • New feature: PingTest, option to test your own local connection speed against the game servers with option to copy te results to the forums for additional support :wink:
  • Rollout later this week…

Thanks for the input so far!

That is actually pretty bad.
Are you experiencing issues in the game as well? Slow browsers van impact the test though. In general it should be pretty similar. In case you don’t experience issues in game, which browser does you use and from what location? Are you on a mobile device, since your viewport is quite small.

Lol I’m on holiday in Spain using a 2g mobile connection with 1 bar of service. I haven’t tried the game over here.
And that’s just a cropped screenshot btw, site works great on mobile

@james would have to agree on that one :wink:
