@Cordovan Do you think the team could prioritise Sharn next for looking for sources of lag? It's one of the worst areas for freezes and rubber banding at the moment. Cheers

Any news about stuck transfers or opening of the ghost worlds?

ddo worlds are unavailable right now

I mean I guess its around 9am somewhere in the world. Like New Zealand ?

 

[ZombiePossum]

I can't log in right now.

 

[Erokir]

Same.

Of course it's hirelings. Just get rid of hirelings.

So you guys really are going to turn on the Night Revels event in spite of the lag-riddled trainwreck currently affecting the servers?

 

[norriskwondo]

Did you guys start the shut down 18 hours early?!? No one can log in

 

[saekee]

Can you check lag issues created by Sleeping with the Fishes when leading Julian and/or Romeo? I noticed this the other day and may be similar to the hireling issues in the patch notes.

Anything on this patch addressing people that can move for 6 seconds than lag for 2 seconds? I haven't been able to play with this issue.

For the love of God, fix the Lamordia crafting system augment bugs. And tell the community where the other items that are not appearing in any quest are or where they are going to be. You guys can't complete anything, start something, leave it halfway done, add more stuff, leave it incomplete, and so on. Concentrate on finishing something, at least JEEZ.

 

[minamber]

Are you really going to launch the night revels event when you've barely done anything to fix the lag?
I know the current event isn't nearly as lag-inducing as the old Mabar was, but this seems almost as short-sighted and irresponsible as launching an xpack when many people can't even play, and you don't even have the excuse of contracted deadlines this time.

 

[kmoustakas]

I like mabar but I'm terrified of the lag that is about to happen

 

[Jeronimo]

I find it a bit sad they do maintenance when people in EU come off work. Why not do it at around 9 am GMT when EU peeps are at work and US people are asleep? It would affect the least number of players in that way.

 

[PersonMan]

I presume they do it at 9am because that is when they are at work.

new feature for next update : 'Purple Lag Alert V'

I still dare them to remove 'alert' for a week just to see what happens.

 

[Jeronimo]

Probably, but that's no valid excuse. I work at software company where we also host the customers' environments. We do a monthly maintenance between 00:00-04:00 am. Yes, a couple of peeps in our office needs to stay up in the middle of the neight, but they earn some extra money and our paying customers expects that their systems are available when they want to use them.
