Too many people are trying to use it.
Too many people are trying to use it.
This is what happens.
I'm trying to get on Grand Theft Auto Online right now, been trying all morning... but I can't because too many people are trying to use it.
I guess Rockstar should be shut down and the game removed from shelves because TOO MANY PEOPLE BOUGHT IT... :lamo
Well done guys.
Thanks for the chuckle.
Apparently most, if not all people cannot get past the security questions, which don't show. It can take several minutes of waiting just to get the login area loaded and then when you get through a couple pages of entries to the security questions, you're stuck with nowhere to go because you can't get the security questions and you can't go forward without them.
This is an epic failure in a software launch and the managers of this project should all be fired. I worked in IS/IT for years and there's no way something like this could have happened in our corporation without everyone overseeing the project getting terminated for such an abject embarrassment of incompetence.
While that might be the excuse they try to use, that's not what caused this. You get in a queue to get to the login site, so they're handling the traffic (badly but they're handling it). The problem is that their design is failing because the simple html dropdown of security questions is failing. This is basic stuff.
GTA has a hell of a lot more coding then some amateur web site to sign up to buy 1 product. Amozon.com transacts hundreds of thousand of sales a day and sell hundred of thousand different products and they don't shut down.
and by the way GTA doesn't require to be online to load or play
I don't know about your level of experience but I can say that your analysis is way off. You seem to think that there's a coding issue with the security question simply because *you* can't get past the security questions. If that were true, then *I* would not have been able to get past the security questions either.
But I was. In fact, I was able to setup my account. Obviously, their problem is with too much traffic. Your debugging skills need work
Yes yes, the websites are down. I am not terribly surprised by that. The first day for any new roleout is often a complete mess. I am not terribly shocked the government can do no better than businesses who base their product on such a thing. Ever played a video game vbased on online activity on it's first day, or even the first day of a new update? I remember working at TWC on the first days of their VOD roleout in the NYC area. Yes, it was going to happen, and frankly it actually shows something you should be terrified of. People are rushing to sign up. The call for people to boycott it and take the penalty might not be working. The more people who sign up the better chance it has of working. The website can be fixed, and so can any problems they run into. It seems that the republicans have one last hope that they can defund Obamacare now.
It's showing that the design and programming was incompetent.

Or perhaps they are shopping since the amount that one would be paying wasn't delineated in the law.
You mean shopping as to look to purchase something?

The problems they are having is due to the massive traffic, you don't know what the HELL you're talking about.they had 3 years and have spent billions you would expect them to be able to get a simple web site to work and no it is not traffic if that was the case the web site wouldn't have loaded there is no questions in the security question drop boxes and that is a site problem that has nothing to do with traffic
We are going to trust these amateurs with or health care and they cant even get a simple web site to work to sell just 1 product and that site wont even tell you if you qualify for a deduction Republicans were right with trying to delay it for a year the dam thing is not ready
I disagree. If the architecture was intelligently designed, loading the page would have loaded the security questions. There is also the possibility that they have designed different sites for each state and that your ability to get the security questions could have more to do with your state's site not being f***ed up the way my state's site is.
I'll also say that if there was some issue with datbase threads due to the questions being retrieved by a query, then the design is still a problem because there was no error message on the query failure.
There's no excuse for this.
It's showing that the design and programming was incompetent.
In which case, it's the states problem, not the feds.
And no matter how well designed the code is, if traffic is too heavy, the page will time out before everything is loaded. Again, the problem is the high load, not the code.
What you're saying makes no sense. Whenever one gets an error, there is an error message. Sometimes, the error is handled by the code, in which case you usually get a message that is easier to understand. If not, you get a system generated error message which is usually incomprehensible to the average end user (and sometimes to programmers too)
I've neither seen nor heard of anything that indicates that their programming (ie code) is at fault. You are failing to distinguish between software and networking issues.
The only thing I see is that your debugging skillz could use improvement.

If the page loads and is usable even though elements of the page didn't load and even though there is no error message, that is a bug. And it's not a little bug. It's a big, fat, juicy bug.
If you think that every query is accompanied by code that checks to see if the query timed out and sends an error msg to the user interface if it did, then your experience was not as thorough as it could have been
