Ive been having glitchy issues with the summoning mechanic in DSIII. I don't ever disconnect (I understand those who do when invaded and such have a consequence of no online activity for a bit) and I have good (if not great internet connection). The events that occur are the following: I go to summon someone and the summoning fails (which is fine), but then after being notified that I "Failed to summon another phantom" I cant summon other signs, sit at my bonfire, or even lay my whitesign soapstone. I thought in the beginning that the game just hadn't processed the "no summons" yet so I waited almost 5 minutes (running through the area though). Upon death (and rekindling myself with an ember) none of the mentioned items worked mechanics worked. So I quit the game through my xbox and rebooted and voila, everything worked just fine. But EVERY time I failed to summon a phantom I would go through the same cycle of issues (mechanics not working) and solutions (quitting and rebooting.) Now its just common to me to recognize when I need to reboot. I kinda got impatient with this process so many times that I just continued on my own with no co-op. Now this didn't happen ALL the time, but in those instances when I waited to connect with a summon and got the message that the summon wasn't coming in is when this glitchy behavior happened. I hope they fix this soon as I will have plenty of friends I want to help run through dark souls. -Cubby88
