Want to guess? Shard 2 is down again.
-
When will Shard 2 be up? I'm taking up the game after a long time, is Shard 2 malfunctioning frequent? Should I change my server or just quit the game permanently? Fortunately I did not buy the subscription. XD

@edgarosalas There are some serious unexpected issues on shard2 worker machines (segmentation fault crashes in nodejs process), we're investigating the reason currently. Sorry for the inconvenience.

My perception is probably biased and I don't have hard numbers to back this up. But in my opinion Shard0 is the most stable but it's the slowest and full of sleeping or zombie giants.
Shard 1 and 2 are about equally stable, though shard 2 has had a bad run for the last week or so. Shard1 is full of YP, so be prepared for world war if you start killing blue players. Shard2 is full of tigga and Overmind. It's an interesting shard if you want war.
Shard3 seems to have the most stability problems.
It would be ironic the instability was a single player and that player recently moved to Shard2. It would be doubly ironic if that player was @EdgarOSalas.

The investigation of shard2 technical issues is still in progress. This situation is totally not acceptable and we're working hard to find a solution.

I'm happy to tell that we nailed down this issue to a bug in V8 in Nodejs 10.x. Marcel Laverdet deployed a workaround for it in isolated-vm 2.0.2, and now everything is back to normal, shard2 should be stable now.
