Another poor performing release, as expected, or is it just me?

SpiderKnight

I only ask if it's me because I just got back my ps4 back, and want to make sure it's not the ps4 still having issues or the new sshd I put in...

Audio cutting out, audio delayed, skills not firing, skills severely delayed. (kill enemy, talk to npc right after, turn around, skoria hits dead corpse, lol) that's nearly a 30 second delay. Npcs are taking up to a minute to load in. I know it just released and there's loads of people, but I don't see anyone else saying anything about this audio/combat lag.

Not just you.

The first time back in about a year and I got kicked twice before I could play :P Yeah, definitely lag and fps issues. I put it down to the amount of people playing the new expansion though. Could be wrong!

It is. A lot of that is tons of people trying to push and shove onto a megaserver and do a lot of the same activities at once. Now, five years in they should definitely be more prepared for this kind of thing but console performance will probably always be worse than PC. PC/NA here, and other than a few ability bugs I haven't ran into a lot of issues yet.

Alright, I went back and forth between my new and old ps4 to make sure, couldn't see that big of an issue on my old one, that was until the third time I wanted to really make sure and it was so bad in a solo instance dungeon I died within 10 seconds of attacking the boss, even thhough I saw 100% health I died in a second to 6 attacks...

I remember the wayshrine lag of Summerset launch- which we still have, but this audio lag+skill lag is worse.

PS4? I think I see your problem right there.

Goregrinder

Yes..it was as expected. Welcome to MMO releases.

It'd be a stress test for sure on the first day of what might be a popular chapter. I'd say it is probably not you.

SpiderKnight

Thanks, just wanted confirmation as I haven't seen anyone else asking about it. Made me worried that my new "repaired" ps4 wasn't actually repaired, and my old one (I had to pointlessly update) wasn't having the same major lag...at first.

Ye, I nearly had a moment to buy a decent pc recently, that was immediately crushed by other important things.

I think it's the mega server technology. Games runs so well right when nobody is on.

Im getting some bad lag on Xbox One X. Its the number of players logged on and crammed into the same zone. Its gonna be at least a couple weeks before more stability comes (and most people stop playing the zone).

PC EU. Sorry guys, I never understand these talks about poor performance. I have poor perfomance only on the first day of events like New Life Festival, when a crowd of people and their pets all come to Breda.
