SPECIAL EVENT: 64-bit stress test with the Devs

[Kimbere]

Form up 12-person raids, step into Thunderholme, get on horses and zoom around all levels/areas of the map. If that doesn't lag, that's a good sign, at least from the mob spawning/pathing/AI perspective.

Also, this did not have any noticeable lag, even after I hit as many as possible at one time with whirlwind and cutter using dino wraps that proc dots.

Echo of the Warblade

The what??

 

[Phaaze]

I went into night revels and popped 5 hirelings and dragged everything around with dungeon alert purple for a while. zero lag so far.

 

[Kessaran]

The what??

It's a sword from Myth Dranor. Can find it under Rare Legendary Items from the Myth Drannor vendor in the test dojo. The effect looks SO good.

Just found it. I figured it would be in with the Rare Weapons in the Test Dojo, but it wasn't.

Why am I not surprised?

But yeah, the effect is pretty darn sweet-looking!

Are you dropping packets? What's your Loss%? I just did 3 laps around the marketplace using dashes and spamming abilities and never broke 32ms ping ~200 fps.

When making reports, might help to know what connection you're on. Fiber? DSL? Cable?

I'm in Alaska. 300 ping is not unusual...

Something I noticed. Mobs that activate and then do something “stupid” like cast false life on themselves or run after another mob/character, seem to be better behaved when they activate. This could due to how early i was on for the test or something from the upgrade. I at a minimum think it is worth watching.

Guild Leader?

 

[Mary]

Guild Leader?

was but demoted my main and made it an alt for this test transfer earlier - still nothing in the transfer window showing up - likely its me being stupid, but I can't seem to get it to work.

OK - Update - I figured it out - it was me

in the lamania launcher there were two entries for primary and lamania, I selected lamania, but eventually realized I had to select primary, then I saw my account and was able to transfer.

yes I am a dork factor four - but finally made it

hm. And you're trying to copy it to Cormyr and not Lamannia on the Lamannia client?

 

[Kobay]

Oh doesn't having items on the AH prevent it too? I feel like I recall that being a thing

Talking of Night Revels , what are the new pieces of gear ?

 

[gravisrs]

I was standing for 30 minutes in marketplace spamming opening quest window. Looks perfect, quest dialog popped <1s 99% of time.

 

[J1NG]

60 Enemies in Vale of Twilight, Celestia (as each Crit flame burst can trigger Blazing Brilliance from Ring as well as Fire damage), Gold Curse Dagger (Gold Curse chance on Crit 15-20, neg drain on 20 via Ruby, Improved Destruction effect per hit), Trip on Vorpal (20), Daze on Vorpal (20).

Spring Attack. on live servers, takes a little longer to resolve. Here on Cormyr, it resolves in a second. Still lags, but decent.

That pause there, is basically how it was, that's not a capture issue. Could have dragged more for this test, but the enemies have trouble following in such large crowds (they stop following after a while).

Well locking servers behind paywalls is still a much more stern shift in DDO's traditional pay model than a pseudo-hardcore gamemode.

Server (singular). It has been clearly stated that there will be other 64 bit servers in the future that aren't linked to VIP, it seems we have to reiterate this in every thread

 

[Coffey]

in the lamania launcher there were two entries for primary and lamania, I selected lamania, but eventually realized I had to select primary, then I saw my account and was able to transfer.

First time i did the copy over myself. There was a moment of *** because it took about 10-15 sec for the home servers to show up as a list.

 

[DAVIDARCNO]

Where is the character copy? I do not see it on the screen that shows up after login to the game.

It's in the Launcher.

Over 2 hours, 17k files downloaded, more than 23k to go. Your stress test failed spectacularly because the installer is pure cancer. I've installed games 5x larger in less than minutes.
