Current Server Status - June 26
Attention community followers,
As you know, our servers have been undergoing maintenance for the last while. The goal of this maintenance is a stable secure environment.
To achieve this goal these kinds of downtime are required.
At this time we would like to assure our community of two important points.
1) The game is not going anywhere. CrossFire is here to stay, for the long haul. We've been making these drastic server changes for the long-term benefit of everyone. We very much appreciate your understanding and your loyalty in this matter. We know you have your doubts, but please trust us when we say that this is all for the larger good.
2) We WILL be committed to running major events, huge giveaways and give everyone a chance to get plenty of free awesome bonuses for playing. This downtime is unavoidable, but in the end it's better for the game and we will be compensating as many people as possible for this outage.
Thanks everyone for being a fan of CrossFire and sticking with us through these tough times. We will emerge a stronger game, with plenty of positives and ways to make you all feel as involved as possible!

That website is not a reliable source.
Thank you for doing this, Saidin. Althought it may not seem like, some of us really appreciate what are you doing there

Nice to know! Hopefully everything would settle in the future, like the decrease of hackers. Even though CF has already done a great job decreasing and limiting the amount of hackers than before, there will always be some new hacks that are undetected. I request no more, but to thank you guys for the hard work, making our game play with Crossfire a much more fun and compatible experience with everyone!

How is it not reliable? All it does is ping the servers IP to see if its up or not.. -

I know You guy's have been working hard on the game but after this downtime will this not only fix the servers but is it also going to fix the bugs from the new Map and not being able to repair guns? Also I have a few zp guns that are only for limited days and have not really had time to use them so will we just lose all the time or get it back? Thanks for working to make the game better even though we all seem to get upset or frustrated at times -

Any date / time when servers will be back ?
Actually the servers are closer to being up then they are being down for longer. If that makes any sense?
Hopefully soon. We're on some final tests here.
Please note that mmoserverstatus.com is not an official source for the server status.
Also note, that while servers might display as being "up" on that site, it does not mean we're ready to just have everyone log in. We're at the point where we need to run the full battery of tests and then let the public on and watch them and make adjustments as necessary.
We know that those who are itching to play are frustrated by the lack of concrete news. But right now, this is what we are working with. When the servers are at a level that they can handle public usage, we'll open them. And we'll monitor them afterwards. And if we have to bring them down again we will in order to make sure we get these things right.
Hopefully it won't be too long. For all our sakes -
Please...for the love of all that is holy...do something about the hackers. I mean, do you guys ever go in there late at night and look at how rampant it is? They don't even try to hide the fact they are using them. As soon as the sun comes up in Asia they are jamming the servers using their hacks. I'm not saying that all Asians are hacks but there is a massive increase in them during the day in that part of the world and the players mostly have Asian names. Just please...start sending GM's in from time to time at ANY hour and see what they are doing to the game that those of us who play straight love dearly.

To address these points specifically.
1) This particular outage likely won't fix all the map bugs with the new map. However most of them have been reported to the devs, and we expect them to be fixed with a content and/or hotfix patch soon.
2) For temp weapons of all types, we will be looking to do some compensation on those items. As of this moment, I can't say exactly what that will be. But for those who have temporary weapons and items (of all types) you can expect that we have your interests in mind, and will do all we can to make sure you're compensated and satisfied. -

i hope the servers will be up soon.would love to know when..
also hope you guys fix repair gun problem
. (noticed the guns get repaired after i log out and log back in, and this msg, when i repair guns makes me confused > "weapon is partially repaired due to low GP. *have more than enough gp*) -

Thank You for the reply and here is a suggestion and note it's just a suggestion
since this has happened just about everyday for close to a month maybe you guy's can give everyone the Fury free for 90 days as a Bonus for Logging in and playing or something.Don't know it's just a suggestion but that would be nice and fair to give everyone that is SGT Or Higher the fury for 90 days and everyone that is below a SGT The beast for 90 days well to the one's that are honorable soldiers like myself and non hackers . Like I said though Just a suggestion but it would be awesome if you guy's did it !! -

And yet not one word about the hacking problem or what they plan to do about putting a stop to it. Hell, I would settle for them curbing it and handing out harsher penalties for getting caught. I Counter-Strike they warn you then un-validate your game key and you just lost the money you paid to buy it. AND they provide the option to have servers without the VAC on so people who don't mind the hackers have a place to go. This has brought cheating on the servers for CS to almost a complete halt.
Look into GM -
stay home, sit front of labtop for 5 hours!!! u said the mainten time is only one hour, now ur a liar!!! everytime when the game under maintenances, u always gave us the wrong time when the servers be up. ok, it not fair to say "everytime", but "most of times". how can ur company keep running by cheat us that much times. and u know, i dont give a shxt to know how hard ur doing ur work, what i care, and most of us, is when we can play the game! Is that not true? Did my words hurt u? sorry, im telling the truth, dont tell us "we are trying hard to fix the problem", "i hope the servers will come soon" bla bla bla! that is a such official excuse! sorry, im so mad, pls understand me, because of u. btw, i know ur just a stuff, not the boss. its not ur fault, so give ur boss a suggustion, fire the technician.

they should try updating the game engine to the latest version so that the hacks are minimised
I would be happy for them just to acknowledge the problem and say what they plan to do about it. There was a hak in the server a couple of weeks back saying that they don't ban him because he buys ZP. Well...I buy ZP and I DON'T hack and shouldn't have to put up with it. I see guys that are know hackers to a point that when they come in the server people automatically start trying to kick them. Since it requires a majority vote and most people vote F12 because they are either hacks too or they just don't care the rest of us have to suffer. A nice addition would be to give the room host the option to kick someone while in game or make it to where he has enough time to kick them from the room at the end of the match before they jump out of the room. Anyone who has seen the hackers playing knows that as soon as the match is over they jump out of the room as fast as they can so they won't get booted. They wait in the lobby and as soon as the game starts they jump right back in. -

Let me tell you something as someone who used to own an internet gaming company that server changes almost NEVER go exactly as planned. Some things you just don't know until you start them back up and stress test them. Bugs are a pain the ass but they are a part of nearly ANY upgrade. Bear with them and it will get done. Sitting here complaining about the downtime doesn't make it happen any faster. It will be up when it is up. Get over it. Go make a Hot Pocket or something. Watch back episodes of Knight Rider. Or sit in here and ***** about the hacks like I do. Hopefully they won't ban me from the forum for it. Maybe the Hot Pocket thing isn't such a bad idea.
