Lower server populations but more lag?!

Print Post  
Like the title says, server populations have dropped back down to their pre-lockdown levels, but lag has gotten worse, and to the point of making me spam hot bar keys just to get them to work.  I’m gonna assume this suck fest is because they stripped physical server assets from the real servers just to give it all to the softcore milking station for the whales.

I’ve had it with SSG’s constant flipping between complete ineptitude and poorly thought out monetization efforts to the point I’m looking forward to seeing what Baldurs Gate 3 does to server populations, and by extension ddo store sales, because I’m pretty sure that at least a good chunk of Orien is leaving this game with me.

I got the itch to play between hardcore 2 and 3.  Logged into the motherboards, saw nothing but posts complaining about the lag and that pretty much killed that itch.

Downloaded Rimword instead.  I personally thought it lived up to most of the hype.

Yea, Wednesday morning when I got home from work I thought I might log in and run a few quests.  I got in within the first 5 minutes it was back up from the restart.  You know, the weekly restart intended to "improve game performance"?

Even with less than 100 people on the server, while running solo, the lag was plain stupid.  On the boat, running through the market, and in the quest, it wasn't worth the effort.  Finished the 1 quest and said good enough. 

Currently on schedule to complete a 1 - 20 life in more time than it will take me to age 20 years in real life.

Lag is because the idiots at SSG/Turdbine keep adding shit on top of the base code.  There are so many server checks and callbacks that we're actually lucky to only have the level of lag we have and not more.

I just came back after almost a year away (left right at the optional xp perma ransack). Lag is definitely worse than it was back then.

Might I suggest you invest in the Vanilla Expanded series on the steam workshop.

There's also a fairly solid magic mod in fairly D&D-esque flavor called Rimworld of Magic.

And finally there's actually a set of Forgotten Realms race mods if you want to fill your DDO itch in Rimworld.  Wink

Yeah.  So pissed right now I wish I could bitch out Severlin in a town hall setting since he's ultimately responsible for what comes out of SSG's collective anus.

Garbage in...garbage out.

Since I'm currently stuck in a raid group that I can't leave - even after logging onto another toon - I hope that you don't take it personally when I suggest that you go drink a piping hot cup of go fuck yourself.

As a business entity, SSG is what they'd say in the 1950's as clinically retarded.

Noted.  I appreciate the descriptor "piping" the most.   The least helpful was "fuck" followed by "suggest."

Yet you're supporting the retards.  It's charity work and a tax write-off?   

Truthfully, I think in the 1950s they didn't know how to talk about a video game developer, so I don't think they would say that.

K.  I see you’re just as retarded as everyone here says you are.  Enjoy that piping hot cup.

I don't know!  I asked, but they are not naming names.

Hopefully we get answers.

Edit:

Wait, since you're new to this but old and late....   Why are you not with The Cranberries because you're sweet but tardy and likely still frozen in someone's freezer from years ago.

Obviously your sarcasm didn’t understand his sarcasm

See, used be in the old days, ppl below 80 IQ were callEd retarded.
It wasn’t a slam on the anachronism of video gamer developers,
It was a slam on you them just be old. Ie retard.
(Really it’s slam on him prob, that’s deeper down the hole)

You do seem retarded from your posts and think yourself smart

I think the term you are looking for is “cancel challenged”

And yes, retards are charity work

Never.  I'm drinking a white claw.  That's not smart.

This seems to be hipster.  I don't think I'll be using it as a reference.  Anything on the urban dictionary is convenience for relabeling a psychosis or bad behavior under new terminology.

If I'm a retard, and it's charity work: are you donating?  I will set up a patreon if necessary or you can cashapp me.

You want names?  LOL!  It’d take exponentially less time to list those that don’t, because pretty much everyone on this forum knows you’re a shit-caked, fully prolapsed asshole fresh off the bukkake boat. 

BTW, what’s this bullshit I’m reading about you getting caught pretending to be the official forum welcome wagon?  Kinda lends credibility to the claims that you pretend to be other things that you’re not.

So, yeah.  The best way to do this joke is say,

"You must be the lost crannberry because you're sweet but tardy and still frozen in grandma's ice chest from Thanksgiving years ago."

This works best when applying to a boomer.   If he answers again it makes him re-tardy (math teacher joke, not mine).

Please, it is important to you.  We must have all the names.  I will wait.  You will produce.  It will be a good summary for all of here to know and to have the list of the names.

Oh? Oh?  You like that?  I'm the UnOfficial Welcome Wagon, pleased to meet you.  Sign up your SOCK account too and receive a secondary Hi Welcome.

Ya'll are ridiculous, lighting a fire on a person's real life but can't handle an obvious spoof.   In no way did I promise to make anyone an Admin or Moderator of the Vault, hand them Strake's digits or give them anything other than a welcome and offer to assist them in their search for happiness.

Seriously, the sense of false outrage (or real outrage.... which would be more worrying) is staggering.  I swear if I showed up to verbally lecture you in the real world, if this gets you upset, you would be in tears.  Poor fragile souls can't handle a welcome letter.  It's not even mean.
