Lag

Post by RedGiant » Wed Sep 13, 2017 2:36 am

Since some of the latest updates...I'm getting lag and periodic long hangs. Its hard to pin down exactly when it started, but maybe in the last week or two?

Its not my ISP...everything is going swimmingly there and even the forums and website respond swimmingly during these times.

People I've partied with report hanging at the same time, so I think it has to be something server side?

Any ideas?

I wanna say the lag spikes have been going on now for at least the last month, plus crash frequency is way up. Honestly, I wonder if it might be better to go back to cloud hosting. It was much more reliable and less laggy then

We are (still) cloud hosting. ;-)

And if it's happening since last month, it's much more likely the issue is with a recent update. We're aware something is off, we'll be looking into it.

I'll try to note time, date when/if happens again. I should have done so last time.

Might be the fix for the crashes also fixed this. Let me know if you experience any more similar lag spikes.

Do you know if other players have similar experiences at the same time?

Not yet, does this happen on the same server everytime or on both?

Found the last reported lag spike in an AI call, so I suspect one of the recent AI updates is causing this. Will see if I can find the issue.
