[Discussion] Lags and spikes

we are not talking about kartias, fortuna, spicula and kamaloka, we speak about lag in mass pvp with 200+ people standing in a place, your lag is because you have bad pc.

 

alright this seems as very incompetent project and my question in thread which i created was no answered , but closed and this thread does not answer my question which is 'does anyone with decent cpu's had to reduce their settings in order to play in bigger events' ? by this i dont mean siege or some valakas or something but when 4-5 partys are at same location ?

 

okey seems you know more than us, okey will it kill you or the gms to log in any big mass pvp to see what lags are there? and thats called official server

 

depends on what u call "decent"... and also not just cpu but ram, hard drive, graphic card, internet conection... u know

 

the question is does somebody has to lower the settings in order not to lagg ( just pointing out not connection wise ) and not my machine i can assure that ram/ssd/grapchic card (which does not have much impact in mmorpgs) and internet connections are decent enough i run such games as bf3/bf4 at average 100-110 fps though it is grapchic card related but as far as i am concern such games as bf4 are next gen games and when it comes to the old crappy lineage 2 i cant run on high setting without having laggs and with average settings i have lagg around 4-5 partys , so the *** ?

 

so pony in redguard?

 

what can i say to you, in my case i usually play with low detaill or just texture/animaton on average, no shadows, no antialiasing, no shadder, average terrain/npc range, and low display limit... so far, i never have lags, just 0.5-0.7 delay from key pressing to char reaction (it can be more delay maybe), wich is created just by my ping... (what i call lag is 3-10+ sec reaction). my pc are a phenom 2x4 3ghz, 8gb ddr3, and a sata 2 hard drive (no ssd).

maybe u should try to "play" a little with display limits, cuz if u only get lagged on 4-5 pt around, its mostly because the client are loading too much pjs.


and, to let u know, bf4 use frosbite 3, a specific next-gen engine created for fps... l2 use unreal2 an a 8 years old engine, wich is also bad for mmo, so ofc u will be pretty ok on bf4 if u compare it with l2

 

cuz innova dont have money for buy new engine ... so all go to l2 store and spend money !

 

what a paranoia around.... its impresive sometimes.

its not fault of innova, they just host the client wich are provided from nc korea.

i hope, they someday change it, but... i really doubt it.

 

but its for sure problem from your sight cuz this problem is for most of ppl. u should focus on both, not only with frost.

 

actually frost is innova invention

 

today orfen:

5s freezes, lags...

my configuration:

i5 3.8ghz, 8gb ram, ssd disk, 100mbit internet. ping 25-30ms.

 

i can't wait for siege

 

innova have lag/delay problems on russian servers aswell from the same time as we have
https://4gameforum.ru/showthread.php?t=746915&page=9
but ofc its our internet fault.

 

is a thing i don`t understand ? why u keep telling us is internet or pc problem. 2 weeks ago same internet same computers all was ok. now it seems all europe players got internet fked and 486 computers ? .... fix this ffs bcz is just not possible to play... and u make sale on pa ? why so ...make this ***** server more playable not payable

just no proper words to express how i fell lately.

 

i am not a software developer but if i had such issues i would start checking the last updates i made to my software. so go back to the first reports of lag problems and see what you did. this includes changes to l2 and frost. i think it started after maintenance when the cards event was stopped. not sure if we still have the npc for event but i have the buff still on some of my boxes. you cold try totally delete the event and everything with it. ofc there could be no connection with lag at all but is just an idea to check. and then also try rollback of frost updates if you made any.
just one more thing. we are not beta testers, we are users. do not tell us install this install that and test. we want our product fixed. we pay for it. if you want us to be testers you also should pay us for this. so either make your admins play the game as users and find the problem, or stop charging money for a game that is not fully working. we have already failed a dragon because of this, i don't want even to speculate what would happen if we loose a castle because we cannot move....

 

we are working on winlicense virtualizer (http://www.oreans.com/) in gameshielddll ver. 12.9.6.25 (pts1).
maybe it generates low-performance code for our packet encryption / decryption algorithms inside frost libraries.

 

same for me ... it like i was recording )

 

if you are so sure is not a frost client issue tell us what kind of problem it is. i had the same problem , my cp have the sa,e problem and we are playing from 4 different countrys and we encounter this problem only after your last update when you finish the cards event.
and don't tell me you are not making changes then .. you delete the npc from the towns you delete all the buff items you make a lot of things. so please check what you miss when you delete all this stuff.
also maybe the hosting company is doing some changes and cut from your bandwith ... or , or ...
just to know if 70-80% of the ppl playing this game have a problem is obviously not from theyr isp or pc's fault

 

i am and i can tell you that this software should never have left to be installed on users pc... however, the main issues are in places with lots of people and that can be difficult to test in a test environment. fast and efficient response would have been required in that case, expecting problems with your deployments is normal as you can't test for everything, and there was 1. no response at start, 2. some response last friday (by radix), however, that didn't fix the problem and in the end we had a 3. annoying users by blaming the problem on their end (incompetence is the first word that comes to mind).

i am glad there are sane people around that actually look into problems instead of shrugging it off, that's why i am glad to see radix posts. now... theories aren't enough my friends, unless you want to lose a large part of your population by frustration.
