Are we just gonna ignore desync ruining the game?

It won’t. They cannot make it in 4 months. It is just not doable in this way.

Well its nice, they trying. Only waisting our time, nobody cares.

Don’t be like that, the developers are currently testing new perks on the PTR server. After all, this has the highest priority! Then we can finally start our crafting lottery.

Maybe there will be another “performance patch” in march 2023 who knows. Lets wait.

Also this new “queue skills system” destroys the game, idk who came up with this system. Its so bad, its insane. No idea how often I died already cause I swap weapon and suddenly Im using (for example) my R skill on my off-hand - when actually I just casted the R skill I wanted on my MAIN weapon.
After I casted it on my Mainweapon I spam weapon switch (to off-hand) and for whatever reason I cast the R spell on my off-hand?! Like bro, I didnt even click R after I swapped my weapon, I clicked it BEFORE I even swapped to my other weapon?

Input on keyboard looks like this for EXAMPLE (its normal for many to kinda “spam” the key cause of the unresponsive and clunky input the game has):
R, R (for using skills), 2, 2, 2, 2 (for weapon switch)

What happens ingame: You cast R on main hand, then automatically will cast R on off-hand as well.

Its so bad, I have no words for this. Also a classic: hit LMB for normal attacks on LS for example, then you need to pot, but the game doesnt let you because 3 more light attacks are somehow still queued up. So its 3 secs where you are trapped in this animation and are not able to pot and just die. Just the best.

Edit: I actually have 2 really good PVPer friends who quit the game as long as its like this with the “skill queue” ;(

Ahem.
This is not the only game with desync problems. There are others. Read some pc game reviews.

I don’t blame you. I quit pvping back in early december due to desync. Recently tried pvping a bit again and the desync has actually gotten even worse. Didn’t think that was possible

I think the most annoying part of the lag/desync we experience is the dev’s total silence on it

There’s no fix for desync. it’s the game engine and it’s inability to keep up with the character abilities and movement.

this is what we get.

Unless there’s a complete overhaul of combat and the ability animations / distances traveled / speed of travel of course.

Yes it is not a small deed to accomplish even worse desync effect but AGS can pull off some miracles when it comes to

“community griefing bug tactics”.

They should patch all PvP changes back to the version before 1.4. Its just unplayble rn. It was always a problem but not that big like rn.

i 100% that the desync or laggy movements are way worse after the last patch.

id like to see what they’re thinking about as well.

its kinda critical atm

I think a big part of the problem is movement skills and movement hindering skills. If the devs can’t get ahead of the problem they should seriously consider limiting these effects. The way these interact with the client seem to cause a lot of the problems.

It’s not an ideal solution to be sure, but something needs to be done, and adding more roots and dashes doesn’t seem to be the answer (looking at you blunderbuss and claw shot!)

its literally getting worse by the day, with each day having a lower player count than the last.

Thankfully I haven’t seen any desync(s) as far as I can tell,
on east coast server/world: Ys
but then again it is a LOW population server… so… yeah… lol.

Hi Kronk123, thanks for taking the time to write this post up, we are always looking for ways to improve the game and this seems pretty substantial so i’ll get a report sent on up to the dev team, thanks again have a great day!

I remember reading in like 3 different release patch notes now that desync has been fixed.

Are you suggesting AGS is lying to us in patch notes? :wink:

I guess I’ll stop playing New World for now as desync is unacceptable. I don’t play other games with desync problems as well. I’m gonna return once they fix this mess and not introduce other critical bugs.

Yes I 100% agree! Roots are the #1 cause for most of my desync issues
