[EU] The Walking Lag

Lhorion · January 2015

Hey,

me and my guildmembers love doing small Scale pvp. This was not fun on Thornblade - in the past the only full campagn.

So we went to Azuras Star..... The Lag came few weeks later.
So we went to Haderus in November 2014. Haderus was these times the holy buff campagn of AD. Everery single ressource was turned back after a short time.
But we had lag-free fights (Sejanus

)!
2015 brought some pact player there and we had imo the best pvp I can remember. No lags, good fights, lot of fun!

Yesterday Haderus was locked by all factions! The lag was horrible! I rode through a DC zerg that wasn't able to Male me fall down. No skill worked, No doors worked - No pvp worked.

Me, my guild and some other player like us ran to Chillrend. Why? We want to have fun. Lag does not fun.
Will the Walking Lag follow us? Is it a vicious circle? Wehre is the problem?

Regards,
Lorion

Guess its time to move again...

Yea, 08:50 pm - Nothing is working. 100 AD running in a keep. They cannot kill someone because they cannot do skills, BUT -> they can take the flag!

The Walking Lag came again and destroyed the pvp. Today it was the AD army.

P.S.: We defendet the keep!!!!! How? No idea, I think 80% of AD had a client crash as I had and the other 20% died in oil because they couls not purge.

Pro tip: Don't play same campaign as Lorion

Sounds like everywhere you go is bad! :P

Fun fact.
No matter what you do in PvP on whatever campaign. A group will always say you're playing the wrong way, doing the wrong thing and fighting the wrong people.

Get over yourselves already and accept not every day is going to be a walk in the park for your amazing ganking guild, or a super smooth journey for your powerful raid.

@AbraXuSeXile‌ I hope I am the magnet of all these

Second evening when the lag invaded Haderus... at least 3 yellow trains and also some EP trains. Most likely from Azuras. That fight at Kingscrest was redicilous. I don't know how we managed to defend it. Thank god the campaign is over soon as we're probably moving somewhere else, but in the end it doesn't matter where you go eventually these *** trains will start forming and ruin the fun.

Thanks guys for another laggy evening.

Thanks all for the awesome PvP we had until yesterday.
I hope that does not mean that instead of Haderus Azura's Star will become a dead campaign now... lol

It was great seeing basically the entire AD population wipe in a glorious lag-infused battle over Kingscrest.

Emphasis on seeing since it was an ungodly slideshow.

Junipus · January 2015

It'll be a continuous cycle and circle since most guilds will move servers to avoid the lag with more following because they want GvG PvP and then bringing the lag with them.

The best we can do until ZOS bury the megaserver beneath those Atari ET boxes is to expect a week or maybe two of lag before things go back to relative normality.

AbraXuSeXile · January 2015

Its annoying that everyone is moving campaigns, we went to even out azura and the day we got there i hear all DC and AD guilds are gone so its just us vs a ton of reds.

Crowned emp twice and gained 1.3 mil in 4 days so not a total loss, need a new home though!!

Lhorion · January 2015

So let us running from campagn to campagn

The_Man_From_Stygia · January 2015

maybe its all those conversions to the metric system

iseko · January 2015

We need to be able to spread the guilds out evenly amongst the servers. No way we can do that from the playerbase. ZOS will need to step in somehow. I dont have a real suggestion on how though. A progressive population cap maybe? Depending on opposition currently online in the server maybe. It would not be a quickfix but it might help spread out the carnage accros servers. Also create servers with different pop caps. So small scale pvpers also have a server.

suycyco · January 2015

The main problem I see actually it's that the EP population seems to be far larger than the DC or AD one.
And since like most of people prefer equal fight to an outnumbered one AD and DC will tend to stack on a single server (more than thornblade I mean) to be competitive.
A maybe solution would be that somes red invade the blue pve server buff , but as I DC myself I am pretty annoyed of the situation since AS is red 24 hours a day and now Haderus is full of lag.

People are more zergy now camps are gone.

Yea. Our guild (EP EU based) is having a meeting this week. I think we are evaluating servers right now. I will bring up the topic of spreading out. And not going to where we have high pops right now. We might attract competition that way? We will see. No promises since I am one vote only
