Andy:


Speaking for most of the caster community, the lag is not connection based.


Basically, the lag experienced is warping of characters, cast delay times, and general performance related issues.


For the most part, I have seen these issues experienced in the lab, but others have reported this outside of the lab.


I know that I have placed bug reports in for this for the last week or so, but no action taken.


Time of Day - Doesn't matter - Example: I was running solo Sunday morning at 8 AM, and was getting about 2-5 second cast time delays... and it wasnt just any sort of delay. The spell went off as normal, but it took about 2-5 seconds to display the result. Same thing happened when I ran with our alliance zerg in the lab at 8 PM MST.


Population does not matter in this (back to my example, I was fighting a stealther with my lock, and nobody else was around)


System Specs:


Windows 7 (Running DAOC in Admin Mode)

4GB Kingston DDR3 Ram (Stable Ram, not OCed)

AMD Phenomâ„¢ II X4 955 Black Edition 3.2GHz w/ 8MB Cache

nVidia GeForce GTX480 (NOT SLI)

Over 250GB Free HDD Space on Drive that DAOC is located on

Cable Internet (15MBps Down, 2.5 MBps Up)


The lag is experienced by multiple people in my alliance so its not just my computer or internet (Fairly tech savvy)

Andy, why don't you tell your team READ the /appeals and the Herald FEEDBACK. As I am sure I am not the only person giving them details there.

The 'in-game' team completely ignores the issue and tells us that it is not something they can deal with (which i understand) and we should contact the 'bug' team. So we contact the bug team and you say that you don't know what to tell them. Does the right hand know what the left one is doing over there anymore??

Andy, bring back the weekly Grab Bags so we know you people even address situations or concerns. Even if you don’t reply to them lol, just pretend you all do so we don’t feel like abandoned lil orphans please?

I rarely go down to lab becuase it lags way too bad to the point where I can't run up any of the stairs in the hub without getting caught on them so I just don't go down there much.

my PC is probably the biggest factor, but it does seem to be like it has its memory leaks that trigger the huge problems.


also bring back old frontiers for an event or something pls

It does seem significantly worse during prime time.

i run pretty much the same specs as rum n coke except i use a 40mb dl/20mb up roadrunner lightning cable connection and still experience the lagginess, it gets so extreme sometime i just run into labby and macro /release lolz, hard to do anything when all u see is a spell effect from ur cast then 5 secs later a wall of red (damage done to you) and death spam (mines usually).

Yes, all of the above. I look at my screen, shows green across the board, push a button, see from 1-3 seconds delay before whatever was supposed to happen happens. Whether it is a style, a spell, or just a message in /reg or /adv.

Just this AM, started a baby chanter. Put pet on mob, watched pet and mob warp across screen randomly. Tried to cast spell, waited two seconds, spell hit mob, mob warped to me to hit me back.

I also see ghosts of people wandering across PvP all the time. This last I seldom see in PvE zones, please note





It's rarer in the mornings (US time). Not unknown, just rarer. The incident described above with the baby chanter was midmorning. Common by afternoon, severe in the evening.





Define "high pop". I see it in TNN, Molvik, Classic zones, plus the usual RvR zones. Don't usually see it in instances, but it has happened.
