I’ve read over some scattered reports of laggy or bugged areas for some players. I’m communicating with the server team to work on what needs to be restarted where or work on better letting you know what servers are coming back up. This is absolutely not the experience we want for our players and as a player myself too, it can be extremely frustrating.
Please list your server name, the area you’re experiencing extreme lag.
This isn’t a fix or a promise that I can be aware of every hiccup (I wish!) but just trying organize this a bit more so I’m not reading old reports.
Thanks @Shadow_Fox but to be clear this isn’t just today. Since the release of the Mutation patch, the instance servers have been extremely unstable.
Mutation Expeditions get random bursts of “Lag Detected”
Wars are unplayable, just a rubber band mess.
Invasions also get "Lag Detected’ extreme monster d-sync.
Yaxche - US East (@falling_down good to see you here fighting the good fight)
-Tonight (Monday) Restless Shores was definitely having issues. Inside the town was bad and during the war the game was completely unplayable.
-Saturday and Sunday I frequently got ‘Lag Detected’ during Laz mutation runs. Cost me at least 1 run, and I know of other people running into the same thing. People I’m playing with don’t want to use their orbs now until situation improves because of how limited they are.
I know this doesn’t help, but is it worse in certain areas? I believe that server has restarted a few times over the weekend, so I’m trying to pinpoint if anything does help.
Hi @Shadow_Fox, I know some people had issues up in Myrk earlier during the zerg. I wasn’t there, but a lot of people supposedly got DC’d. I was just running around Reekwater and it seemed okay. Currently waiting for an invasion in Cutlass to kick off and it seems okay in the fort so far; will update if it has issues.
It’s almost exclusive to instanced content, not sure if that is done under a separate server cluster or not but almost all of our invasions/wars/expeditions have been unplayable since patch.
We do see the odd Lag Detected boot in regular game modes, but those feel more like reboots than crashes.
Hahaha oh I’m not, I understand there are others and the forums are just a SMALL piece of the pie. But it’s always good to start somewhere and if I can help a server restart, even one, then it’s a win in my book.
Eden- It’s basically the whole server. Just today…Running around reekwater town, myrk, mines, in Lazarus dudgeon had lag detected and it absolutely is not on my end. Great Cleeve mines. Brightwood town. It’s extremely rare to go more than a few minutes anywhere with out lag, stuttering, rubber banding etc. I just got off last night because I literally couldn’t go anywhere without issues.
All our towns are getting squashed due to the roster bug and lag outs, people demoralized that they can’t defend in wars, losing mutation keys, it’s just all around not a very fun time.
Also you must have just started your shift, nice to see some CM icons in the forums today.
kthx
Have a coffee on me, you might need it tonight
