Chai told me that there is no lag, so it was clearly something on my end.  And all other 11 people in 2 different parties.

Happens on Thelanis quite a bit as well. Locks up a whole party at times, but the last time I cross-checked in-guild, it wasn't a serverwide lock at that point. Probably more instance shananananigans.

Ran an abbot for the first time in a long time a couple of nights ago on Sarlona, the lag was so bad 11 lvl25s had a hell of a time beating him down just to get the doors to spawn.

People were all over the place because for them the abbot was right in front of them but in reality he had already moved to a new spot, this went on for a good five minutes and then everything was just fine.

In VoD, Suulo would just randomly re-aggro every few seconds.  Intim wouldn't work, tanking wouldn't work, it was a mess.  And then a couple second hiccup every time trash spawned.

Last night I hopped on to run raids because Grace commanded it.  FUCK YOU DDO.  Ran VoD, good ole Hordo fell down to the bottom and as soon as he reached the rest of the party, we all simultaneously locked up for a solid 3 minutes.  Couldn't move, couldn't do anything.  Then it happened again in part 4 of Shroud.  We're all beating on Harry, all of a sudden the damage numbers stop and the blades aren't moving in anymore.  It happened to everyone in the group.  Every once in a while I would be tossed up in the air and hovering over Harry like an out of body experience and then back down.  We all died except Hordo (that's how you know lag is bad), but no one got taken to the penalty box.  All of a sudden we all hit the loading screen and are trapped there for another couple minutes.  Then the Recall button doesn't work once we arrive at the penalty box.  I was so fucking enraged.  The same thing happened the other night in a quest.  What the fuck is going on?  I've never experienced anything like that before in all my time in this game, let alone to the entire party.  FIX YOUR FUCKING GAME.

One of the puggers typed in party chat, "Cue the why GW2 is better speech..."  Grin


I think that was Hordo that said that, actually.  Grin

I went out of my way to give you the full DDO treatment, Gawna! You got the following:

1. We finish DQ1 and I realize I forgot to talk to the djinn.
2. I fall off something in the Sands.
3. Subterrane lag and Hordo death.
4. Stormreaver bugs and ticket has to be put in.
5. Fun pugger that makes you enraged and sends me angry tells.
6. Grace death.
7. Raid failure due to lag.

Not everyone can get that kind of package in one night. ILU

(I had fun anyway.)

Sounds like some of the improved deception shenanigans that have been happening lately.

Tried testing it out a few nights back and sometimes it was just making the mob spin and other times it would just go completely mental and swap aggro.

Are you implying they ever stopped?  The agro tables and agro management has been fucked in this game since day one.  They have never really "fixed" it.  They masked some of the issues sure but agro has always been haywire if deception, Diplo, Bluff, are used when someone is Intim tanking.  Seven years and the agro queues have never worked correctly.

That's the thing...  these aren't little issues I'm not pissed because an ED doesn't work.  These are massive, game breaking, and fun sucking issues.  They ruin the whole experience.  They are also completely unacknowledged by Turbine.  In all the time I have played game quality has never been this bad.   It's disgusting what they have done and how they are handling it. Honestly, over dozens of MMO's over a dozen years I can only think of a few instances where issues were this bad and most of those were fixed within days or weeks and came with massive "We're sorry" free game time.



Couple things that bother me about this:  1) it isn't happening to everyone, so we get the apologists on the forums saying upgrade (I won't go down that path again, because it makes me have to go "oooooohhhhm" a la Jackie Gleason... beep beep beep beep).  and 2) the major gamus interruptus shit WAITS till you get good an into something (like a half hour/45 minutes or so in) THEN fucking goes apeshit.  It only takes like two of these, and an evening's pretty much ruined.

And yah - it makes it worse when Turbine doesn't say shit - they have to know how unstable this thing's become.  At least acknowledge and lie and say you're working on it when you know you're just letting it die on the vine.

It's not just Khyber - I play on Thelanis exclusively and am seeing this anomalous shit, too.  Maybe Khyber's got more eyes on it?

Number 1 is my fav.  I can run games that put DDO to shame and you get the fanbois yelling get better hardware it doesn't happen to me.  Like Gawna said, when everyone on vent locks up together in different instances it sure as fuck isn't the client machine.

I'm becoming increasingly convinced they've got some sort of arcane party-client syncing code going on under the hood trying to keep folks on the same page there, and it's interfering with the client-server system, because when this latest one crops up, I can keep attacking on a melee till it clears, for instance, and things will be dead by the time the hitching stops, which isn't something you'd likely note if it was a case of the clients not being able to keep up with the server, or the instance itself actually halting. After all, at that point, the server either wouldn't be getting, or wouldn't be processing client commands...

One thing for everyone who is a "skeptic" on this issue: Insurance companies are basing their underwriting on the assumption that it is real. They are refusing to write policies on homes that are likely to be in danger from rising seas 20 years from now, even though the resale rate of the homes is so high that they could keep writing policies for another 10 years and still not have to pay out on 1 policy in 5, but that would be irresponsible. Unethical, as well, but that's never stopped anyone before.

Dunno for spamming spells, since my PMs TRing (again).
Probably also worth noting that VoIP still functions normally, so that subsystems also unaffected.

Seems more like every four days to me, not seven days.

Tomorrow is Monday, Jannuary 7.  End of Festivult, maybe the beginning of Risia.  Guess what you will read later on tonight on the login screen?  Server Bounce Monday January 7.

We all got locked up again in every raid we ran.  It wasn't as long as the long ass one that caused a Shroud fail, but got hit with one as I was running across a bridge in Von6.  I was able to haltingly move across so I didn't die, but it caused a base 2 to die.  ()&#@)$(#*  It is so fucking irritating and, like someone else said, it doesn't happen when you first step in and are doing something unimportant, it happens at a succeed or fail moment and that's what makes it frustrating.

Suulo was again having monster aggro issues last night.  Thankfully Grace got what she wanted so I never have to step into that stupid raid ever again.
