I've passed along the feedback in this thread to the dev team in addition to other data gathered. When I hear something back I'll update this thread.

What's funny in a sad sort of way is to go from a desolate pve area to laby and notice how unresponsive/laggy the client feels.

Just being in some of the old pve zones(not the ones that have been butchered and now run like crap like the dragon zones) with how smooth things runs sometimes even makes the pve more fun.

To answer a few questions..

Explain LAG... Well, when you either press a button to style, or cast, and the style/cast doesn't go off as expected.

Where does it happen? Almost everywhere in the game. I can be in Catacombs, in a zone off Underground Forest, and
get this 1-3 second lag.

In NF - When you see guards zip by you, from 2 or 3 keeps away. When you see guards standing out the in middle of no-where.
When you see players of any side, just standing there. Click on them, and they vanish. Seeing pets and brittle guards
just standing there. clicking on them, and they disappear.
When you get Slammed, and the person doing it, zooms by you, and then is behind you, with styles, while you can't
see or cast on them, because they are still zooming by you.
Seeing casters of all realms make u-turns casting spells.
Going LD more often than ever.
Having windows pop up a "the file game.dll has created and error and must shut down".
(happens more often around Main CK boat docks (Bled, Beno, Crau), but also at some towers (rens 4)).

Weapon swapping in combat is often a joke now...another one of the staples of the assassin class made unreliable if not impossible by the lag.

When you click a weapon and try to drop it on your mh/oh having a 2-3 second delay before the weapon actually equips, all the while trying to fight, is um...ftl.

I also LD a LOT more than I ever did. Going from once in months to every day if I dual log in molvik. Both accounts cancelled pending a fix.

ha!! Try playing a Minstrel and keep a mezz/song/pet and interrupts with the lag we have had these days hehe. Its impossible, im not charming Oj mobs anymore cause I cant keep em all up.

Lets hope they manage to fix it soon

Thanks Andy_Mythic...


its nice to see that you are willing to take notice and assist with this..

One of the big reasons I quit was lag and ghosting and the last day I played was the day before Ywain went live. I recently re-upped and it's just as bad as ever so I cancelled again. I can almost live with lag and casting delays, etc. but the ghosting completely ruins my fun as a soloer who can't afford to make one mistake in a fight vs. multiples.

Oh wow, everyone is having this problem? I thought it was just my internet bugging out again.
For the past day or two when I was trying to exp. once in a while I would start to lag really bad. On both my main and bot the in and out packet lights on the ping meter would constantly be yellow and red.

No, that's just your internet bugging out again.

What we're talking about is lag when the packet lights and ping meter would constantly be green.
