2KSports server down

Postby Pepe Bradock » Tue, 19 Nov 2013 12:50

Hi everybody,

I think this is the same for all of us, but I'd like to check here to be sure : from saturday evening (CET), 2KSports french server is down for TS4. 2 consequences :

1/ WT and 2kOpen are no more available - not a big deal :mrgreen:
2/ online games we can play are with no update game version, which means more powerfull and accurate power shots, less effect of tireness, no problem to move everywhere for slow players, less efficiency for control shots compared to power ones (maybe the only good news :wink: ), incredible angles on cross shots, etc. - this is a big deal :evil: !

So can you, please guys, tell me if this is the same in your countries - especially for those who are not ine Europe.

Indded, I'm asking to myself if there is not a risk that this problem become permanent. 2KSports, like other video game companies, regularly closes some servers. TS4 is quite an old game and 2K, since PS4 and X Box one are out, must need more servers to make works online functions of their games because there are 2 new systems to manage. I hope they did not decide to sacrify our favorite game to give more places to their more recent games...

@all the hosts : any news from 2K Sports ?

Someone else asked me the same question about the servers being down permanently. I told him not to worry because the server that topspin 3 uses has still been up and running this whole time and its 3 years older than topspin 4. However you do bring up this new point about their being 2 new systems 2k has to deal with which could change this situation.

Someone who worked for 2k once told me that the servers that the topspin games used was the same as nba 2k. Although I feel there is something wrong about what he said because when the topspin server is down the nba 2k stays online. But 2k clearly does not have a pattern of only letting you play a game online for a year or two and then shut down the servers so you can never play it online again.

The same here, since saturday.
How is it possible that 2k is not giving any explanation about that?

I'm also curious about this matter.. It's strange that it seems to be both on xbox and ps3 tour. I was hoping for a reply by the hosts by now hopefully we will have some news soon.

With what the guy says in this thread (viewtopic.php?f=1036&t=17991 ), I'm afraid TS4 server is definitely down and will never be reactivated...
