Hellgate teething problems - Asian server

The big Hellgate MMO baby is having teething problems. Here's a selection from our Asian server:

• 'Memory exhausted' error game crashes (even with 4 Gig of RAM)
• Other game crashes - quite frequent
• Cannot see characters in same group
• Cannot level beyond 22 - xp and talent points unrewarded
• Server crash
• etc...

Some of this was due to the Hellgate server admin guys (IAH) not being able to apply Patch Zero at the right time.

No big deal. Just teething problems. Apparently there are problems on the US and EU servers too. So blah. nvm

However the big problem on the Asian server side has been the slow communication from IAH about what's going on. Here's a post on the forum that sums it up nicely.

There's also a rumor going around about wiping everyone's characters and resetting the server back to day zero to apply the patch and fix the problems. But there's been no word about this from the server administrators. hmmm.
