ZoS should provide us optimal performance on their servers (but as we all know its not exactly like that...) So do we want 1 Million for 1 GUY or we want that money to be spend for SERVERS ?

    I don't think the lags and high pings are necessarily a server problem. The lags weren`t this strong when the game was released (especially in cyrodiil) so it seems to be more of a software problem rather than hardware ;)

    Or coding but i think servers are also to be blamed here because at start the capacity was way bigger and Cyrodiil was much more crowded with no fps drops and little lag, now its just impossible to play to be honest 3-5 sec delay and its just horrible you just cant play like that its not optimal at all...

    Its not an issue on servers. I've done a ton of research on the megaservers (got an A in that class for this project haha) that new MMOs use and its not a hardware issue. The lag etc is mostly due to coding issues

    Fps has nothing to do with servers...at all ;)

    Better servers would probaly decrease the ping during lags in cyrodiil from 600 to 550, nothing more :(

    They already upgraded the server technology a few weeks ago.

    There's clearly problems in the coding and or engines.

    I think its disgusting with bugs still in the game since beta and pvp lag that they can just blow 1 million dollars on marketing crap.

    Console gamers must be really crazy with their mummys money...

    Your argument here seems to suggest the servers are just fine. What information do you actually have as to the server capacity before or after Cyrodiil? I doubt anything has been released.

    Your assumption seems to be that they've cut back on hardware to save a buck. What's your source?

    <edit>
    After hardware has been purchased, it doesn't cost that much to keep it plugged in.

    Not sure why you're showing me a video when it's fact that the servers were upgraded and that there's been updates; and they're looking at the physics engine.

    I still encounter graphical stuttering after few hours playing time (much less than ealier before all patches), not much a serious problem as reloging helps, but I haven't this in swtor after 12 hours, so if it's something wrong with ESO server, I vote for new one :).

    I agree that the lag/latency issues in high population areas is fookin unbearable and NEEDS to be addressed. But, I like the idea of a contest, we should be able to have a contest and fix the high pop issues... they shouldn't be mutually exclusive.

    I will say though that it's rare that I get latency issues or lag. That's not to say others don't. They absolutely do. But then I have 16GB of RAM and a hella expensive graphics card as well as a great I7 processor.

    1. Ball groups weren't a major issue at start.
    2. When 1.6 dropped you could hit 10x the amount of players at the same time = upto 10x traffic = upto 10x lag = massive reduction on pop caps.

    There will always be a technology and physical limits.
    The trick of competent programmers is to make sure their game doesn't exceed that physical limit.... using caps.
