Firefall is down, is it for good?

[Gordro]

Firefall is up, just they have not got the people to sort out the things needed to play with when a data center goes down.

Firefall is an OLD application, probably multiple systems undocumented, being left in charge of that is probably a nightmare ESPECIALLY when it all goes tits up and you cant phone the old staff who knew to wiggle the firbe conectors on a specific fabric switch in the case of lights out

That's because some people freaked out, urged others to report the game, and had it removed.

Idiot people over-reacting. I'd say wait for an official annoucement before doing anything so drastic but hey... it's the internet, people do whatever they want to.

It should be reported for people not getting support from their purchases not for being down one day.

 

[Vecchio]

Happy Birthday, Dude! You can log in now. Have a fun Tiki party!

Sorry about that, buddy. Just party hearty and have a great day.

 

[Mahdi]

Meh, ff has been dead for over two years. I may miss the hay day but Ember and it's progress has helped me get over firefall quickly and from the first announcement.

 

[Rubezahl]

My grandson took over my account last year. He loves the game, and is logged on right now. Strangely, I cannot get a good link to install it on my new computer.

if it was removed from steam odds are that someone from steam called "red5" to ask them what the hell was up before removing it altogheter, steam is a serious retailer afterall and i'd say that they'd at least attempt to contact the dev company before doing something drastic just on player reports.

If they get enough complaints they will pull a game. What zombie survival game had so many issues it was pulled and then re-released with a different name but the same issues? Stupid brain, you remember useless shit but this one time I need you and you get all eff you. Sorry, wandering off topic again.

 

[PlzBanMe]

It isn't working as a game right now. You can get in but barely anything works right now. Yesterday all AI was broken but it is working some what today. I have been trying to play but the game is broken at the motorpool section of the starter missioin.

[NitroMidgets]

Yeah, that's the chain of bastards!

 

[Charon]

That company is just straight up scammers.
"Guys we promise this time we have the hacks and bugs under control"
They were so bad they copy pastad League of legends TOS and didn't remove the links to Lol's page or references to riot games.

 

[NitroMidgets]

Yeah, those were some crazy corrupt motherfuckers! I couldn't believe that they were let back onto Steam like that.

 

[Firemoth]

Well I can still log on to the website...but trying to download the client sends me a broken link.

and anyone else that might be interested, ive zipped up my firefall folder in steam. should be steam file verification-fresh (i dont anticipate any addon files in there) if you want your own copy for archiving or whatevers. steam-generated back up is a little larger at ~11gb, so id have to find somewhere else to host that if someone wanted that copy.

Hopefully it's not as easy to get back to selling packs on steam without them looking into actual support.
It shouldn't be as easy as " hey we're here, keep selling our stuff even when people don't get purchase issues resolved"

Just tried logging in .....the launcher fails to get the version info, but the"play" button still worked. I got to the login screen and hit login....but it never went in. However, there was a very interesting moving backdrop of DT with the sun going across the sky in a time-lapse way until nightfall, and then the moon did the same thing. This cycled constantly while I was waiting, which is interesting since DT NEVER had a day-night cycle. Also, moving the mouse to the top of the screen caused the view to move upward into the sky more as well.

I guess it ended up timing out while waiting for a response. Red lines showed up around my email and password blocks and I just exited.
