I currently cannot get logged in, my screen just hangs at the world loading screen.
tried clearing cookies and cache and my flash cache. Rebooted. no change, this is the first issue i have had trying to get into the game. any suggestions?
"For problems where you are unable to get in the game, or the game is taking a long time to respond, please start with this FAQ as well as the self help test page.
Also, if you can use the debug version of the Flash player, it will help with error reports submitted in some instances. The full details are in that link.."
It seems you've already done some of what's suggested in the FAQ.
Good luck!
thanks for the self test help page, that is good to know.
I came up all greens. i switch from IE to Chrome and was able to login after about 10 minutes of sitting at the world page. Game is very laggy, mabye its just very high traffic right now. Trying again with IE.
I have exactly the same problems for around 12 days now. I am either stuck at the world screen, or, after I finally get through, the game is laggy to the point that it is unplayable.
Helptest does not show anything abnormal.
It seems to have something to do with connection nevertheless. Situation is basically this: If I log in from other places, everything works just fine. I have even tried some connections which I know are very, very slow and weak - Glitch still does work. It might be laggy at times, but it's nothing compared to what I am experiencing at home. It's just my home connection that is somehow flawed. Before this, I could play the game before for 3 weeks straight without any major problems. Now, I simply cannot.
After trying to pin down what this is, I can only come up with either my DSL router or something about the server of my provider. I have no clue what it is, though. And all other websites work fine, downloads work fine, etc.
It would be very helpful if you have similar problems to continue discussing this openly, so that we might learn from each other or maybe even TS can come up with an idea.
Using Chrome, but Firefox in IE showing exactly same results. Different computers in my house show same results.
I'm having the exact same problems and actually came on just to report it. Glad to know I'm not the only one.
When the game *does* seem to load, I can't get anything to work. When I click on vendors I just get "..." as the little dialogue that pops up. When I click rocks to mine the same thing, "..."
I'm running Chrome and this is the first time I've had this problem. For a little while I was able to get it to work this morning but then it stopped again. The rest of my internet is working fine so I know it's not a connection issue. I was streaming stuff from Netflix just about a half hour ago and it was fine, no hitches or lag, and all the other sites I bring up on my laptop are working fine too. =/
I'm also stuck at the world loading screen, I just got Firefox 8 and It's saying that I can't connect to the server, this is the first time I have had this problem. It works in IE but I hate having to go at sluggish speeds for normal applications much less for an entire Flash game
I don't know if we all really have the same problem, or if its the same symptom for different problems, but as I said: I am stuck for 12 days (!) with this, and in the meantime, I really have tried everything I could think of, reinstalling flash, checking different browsers, computers, and so on, and it really looks like a connection problem to me, although a very mysterious one, because all other websites, downloads etc. seem to work fine.
My assumption at the moment is that Glitch needs something that other websites don't. A certain stability, a certain I-don't-know, so that we feel that our connection is normal, but the small missing thing breaks down Glitch.
I would be very interested in listening to the support help's idea about this. Unfortunately, they stopped talking to me 11 days ago. Maybe they thought they could not help anyway. I am therefore also glad to find other players with similar symptoms.
Just got another error, "Hmm we're having trouble reaching the game server. Try again..." >_<
Is this possibly related to the change made recently to stop compatability with prior versions of Flash...? Because I just upgraded my Flash like 2 weeks ago and everything else runs fine. =(
Edit ~ And now my auction purchase that I had just made vanished into the aether upon delivery. UGH.
