Constant 2-3 second delay here. Just re-activated the other day and it seems to be worse than it was when I played 3 months ago. Before I'd only get the delay during primetime. Now it's all the time. And if it isn't fixed in the next patch like they said it'd be I wont be sticking around.

due to their servers, coding and game engine, mythic has always been plagued with lag. It's not going away, and they won't find some magic bullet unless they are willing to invest significant sums. So they will tell you "we are working on it" to string you along.

Maybe this will uncover some big net neutrality conspiracy going on with some isps?

What lag??? You must have some kind of problem with your comp or internet.
Playing with a oooooooooold computer my self and got no lags at all.

It's not steady lag, it is lag SPIKES and I have em bad too. No it is not on my end, I am running around 6,000 $$ worth of machines and have a very good internet connection. Its Mythic. and it needs to be fixed asap


edit: yea monsters don't seem to be affected by it, Im down bottom of Sping, I double cast (lag spike) mob casts dot on me THEN I attempt to cast twice but am interrupted by the dot lol
Mythic you are about to lose alot of folks as paying subs if you don't get a handle on this FAST.

Having so many players in DF over the weekend has caused a ton of lag. Generally there is no lag in NF, unless it is on your end.

Would not a server reboot solve this problem?

No. Their code is a mess, so determining root cause(s) is nearly impossible. I wouldn't count on this being solved unless they rolled back to an earlier version.
