What is there for them to even work on? Supply better servers. Archeage has no issues with lag or desync and we play with 3-400+ people in one area non instanced with ships sailing and stuff blowing up and ENORMOUS world bosses and yet, no issues. AGS cant instance 100 people
Fixing desync would also change the retarded GA/WH meta and all area unfocusing skills, this would improve the game so much in so many ways, but the engine seems to be a clusterfuck of spaghetti code that seems to be far away to be something real.
I mean, we all either get full unfocused area skills or we go home.
AFAIK and IIRC, it’s not a servers hardware issue, it’s the way they triangulate client-server-emulator that get’s the desync, there’s a third server involved on every action, or maybe it’s the primary server that does the emulation, thus the 2000 players original limit, but regardless, it’s a shitty way, specially when the protocol is so weak and vulnerable and you keep seeing bots that inject locations, or that can auto-target. Anyway.

All i know is people freeze and then teleport in front of me quite often and every match. You specially notice this when they are running away from you.
OPR is unplayable at the moment. Idk how the ‘bug fix’ made the performance so much worse. I often use GA charge and end up in a new spot only to rubber band back to where I initiated the charge. This is worst feeling. Fighting 1v1 I will be stunned with no animation from the enemy.

still happening, fix it
The musket’s hit registration has been terrible since the February patch. Please fix it.
I have actually noticed major improvements to desync over the past month or so. It is clear to me they are working on it. The only major rubberbanding I get now is when I use a movement ability into a gravity well or an ice shower.
I don’t know about anyone else but I desync when fighting wolves with no one around. My gut feeling is that there’s something in the game’s positional validation that’s fundamentally flawed and inconsistent across different weapons.
I have no trouble hitting players with the fire staff but constantly struggle hitting players with a musket to the point where I no longer play the weapon. If aim is the issue, then a projectile should be harder to hit compared to a hitscan weapon.
Not my experience, as far as i know it has gotten worst in Barri , a 1000/2000 server at peak.
Exactly. Really easy to find combat problems during this.
Bump.
Hopefully they do NOT launch any more new features with challenging bugs until they make the PVP playable for the 1st time in months.
Yep. I’d like to enjoy new world again.

Lets keep this post at the top, by far the biggest issue with the game, did the devs finally acknowledge this issue?
They didn’t speak about how unplayable combat is due to this issue in their previous 2 dev videos.
And i quote them “i’m very excited.” and “i’m excited”.
I don’t know , they seem happier than ever to me on the surface.
I wish i could be also as excited as them about people freezing and teleporting every X seconds in my screen like a game from the 1995 era.

Dont fix it!
We need another weapon we cant use in pvp since its broken. Please give your great sword! xd
Yesterday I was at that queen miniboss farming yellow+black gyps in Ebonscale. And both mobs spawned not in proper place but 10m away. After spawning they begin to deaggro after being hit and run to there designate spawaning place.
It was so annoying to watch there retreating animation everytime.

I wonder how many keyboards or mice were harmed in frustration during desync lol
I for one have smashed my keyboard trying to switch weapons or take potions.
But then i remind myself, my hardware is working perfectly…its the game thats broken.
Those that are saying “replicate”, there are so many threads around here providing video evidence and so many notifications regarding to this issue.
Its not ignorable anymore.
No new content till old content is fixed…what is even the point?
the desync is just horrible at the moment. BUMP
Boy… i’m really stubborn and i still play some OPR, like about 2 everyday, but most of the days the desync really takes all the fun away…
Specially desync vs gravity well and hammer meta which really prevents you from reacting to hammer stuns 
and fully denies your weapon swapping when hit by gravity well.
