TOPIC | Games and Coliseum never work for me
When I first started using the site, I could play games and use the coliseum. Over the last several months, though, using Chrome on Windows 8 (and before that in Chrome on Windows 7), the coliseum will sometimes let me pick a team of dragons, sometimes not, but nothing else almost ever works -- it just freezes with the loading bar mostly full.

With games, I can usually play for about a minute before something goes wrong and it freezes up -- Tidal Trouble, for example, will usually let me play one round but won't ever load the second one, even as the time ticks up in the sidebar. Changing the settings between normal and alternate doesn't fix the problem.

(I have a family member with an almost identical computer, the same operating system, same wifi, same browser, whose games and coliseum work fine, so I'm not sure what's up, but I've finally given up on it going away on its own.)

I just think dragons are neat.

For the coliseum: Did you allready try the safemode? http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/help/1362925

You could try another browser. Many users experience instability and lags before a browserchange.

Interestingly enough some users need to switch to chrome for a better result others needed to switch to FireFox and others again use less commonly used browsers like Safari, Opera and such succsessfully.

@cachinna someone in wind was having problems with the coli too. They got this advice: [quote]have you tried changing your Faire Socket under account settings? I was having serious coli lag (couldn't swap out party members for example) but switching my socket seems to have fixed the problem.[/quote] I have no idea what it means though or what a faire socket is supposed to be, but this fixed it for them. OH oops xD sorry i didn´t realize this was so old :P i was browsing through my friends profiles and got curious about the thread.

Locking this thread as a necro in compliance with the Forum Code of Conduct - please do not post in threads where the last activity was over three months ago. This is especially important in the Bug Reports forum, as thread bumping interferes with developer bug tracking (see this edition of Words on the Wind for more information on proper use of this forum).

To anyone who may be having trouble accessing the Coliseum/Faire games, we have a tracking thread for these kinds of reports. :)

Thank you!
