Tripwyr✭✭✭✭✭Same as always. DC forms a zerg ball and spams Healing Springs, server crashes and rollsback, they take the keep because AD pugs are cut off from the keep.
EDIT: They just crashed it a second time only 25 minutes later. Very effective tactic I must admit.Edited by Tripwyr on July 22, 2014 10:39PMAlacrity Founder | Forum Emperor

I am of the firm opinion that subtracting "raging stupidity" from anyone's voice can only cause them to sound more like myself.9 -

✭✭✭frowhat iv seen, it only crashes like that when Dc zergs up. never during a huge battle for a resource, or a keep. only when Dc zerg balls up and spams all that healing and the rest of that crap. I don't mean to sound ignorant and paranoid, but im sure they do it on purpose at times.3 -

✭Hate zerg balls... i play small stealth groups mainly.. so i see them all the time... 99% of the time we avoid them ... However it looks so stupid kind of ruins the feel of the game...Feel bad for the people trying to do anything relating to keeps...PVP DEADWAIT

IKilled007✭✭✭✭I am DC and I was watching as 200 of our side gathered in stealth outside the last yellow keep. I told my guildies on voice, who were approaching the keep, this server is going down. Sure enough, the zerg stormed in to flip the keep and less than a minute later everyone was knocked offline.
Yesterday the same thing. I called it right before it happened. 80 or so EP rushed through a breach in BRK and about 200 DC rushed in right behind them. KABOOM.
Weren't we promised a lag-free experience in this game? LOLThe only substitute for victory is overkill.5 -

✭✭✭✭✭Its almost like there is a reason to stack in this game, that also happens to cause lag as well....
I wonder what that reason could be...

k1llorbek1lled✭✭✭It's not the DC zerg, well it is, but still why do we have to lag out? This is sad. I don't know why I pay for this. I'm an idiot I guess. I'm giving them the next 2 updates or I'm unsubbing. If they wanna be crappy zergers, it's their right, and zerg away. It's just they shouldn't be lagging everyone out and crashing the server. Can't use siege, can't use skills. We just have to get zerged on and die. I'm on EP and I really don't care they zerg us, I just would like to kill 10-12 before dying. I was in 3 top guilds that played a KEY ROLE in winning wabba the first go around. They all died out or half of them unsubbed because of crap like this in PvP that has never been fixed. I'm just fed up that they are letting our PvP communities die out. When has this server EVER been able to handle, let's say, 40ep-VS-40ad-VS-40dc? Never, because it does happen and everything turns to crap.
I can't believe we get NO acknowledgement from ZOS about this at all. It's such a joke. They can at least just release a statement about how their server CAN'T handle huge battles but they don't. If they would just tell us "Sorry we realize our server can't handle the fight and we're working on it" I would feel kind of better, but NOPE nothing.
Say I'm butthurt or QQ, whatever, but seriously I feel like I'm Just wasting my money...Edited by k1llorbek1lled on July 23, 2014 12:26AMstop the zerging0 -
k1llorbek1lled✭✭✭Dude, I'm not trying to blame DC, it's just the fact that when 200 of them show up, the server goes down. It's the server man... but they bring so much to 1 area it's over and crashes. They can zerg all they want do it up it's their right, I'm just mad the server can't handle the zerg.stop the zerging1

Honfold✭✭✭This is ridiculous how are the servers going to handle the condensed campaigns?!Edited by Honfold on July 23, 2014 12:58AM1

Lowbei✭✭✭✭✭i want to feel bad for zos, having their servers crash because of zergball impulse trains... but i cant because their own refusal to remove ae caps have driven the zergers to form up into the only thing that assures them ap.
i have a bet going with some friends on how long it takes them to figure out that ae caps are the problem.
if only people had warned zos about what would happen with ae caps...2 -
Pixysticks✭✭✭✭✭Can DC please make some sort of agreement to not attack keeps with over 100 people, it's honestly making the game unplayable due to lag and crashes.
If you do attack the keep with 100+ please stop spamming healing springs every second until you cap the keep or server rolls back.Alacrity

Nala_✭✭✭✭ive seen people in /yell encouraging healing springs spam to crash server when theres 1 keep left to dethrone emp. most of us are completely against this because it takes all the fun out of the game, but a few dc are just doing it to grief at this point.2

aksyong✭✭✭It's really funny that people are complaining about DC attacking with over 100 people. What's wrong with that? In warfare, the more the merrier!
You guys should be asking ZOS to fix this [snip] instead of complaining about DC.Same as always. DC forms a zerg ball and spams Healing Springs, server crashes and rollsback, they take the keep because AD pugs are cut off from the keep.
EDIT: They just crashed it a second time only 25 minutes later. Very effective tactic I must admit.

no its not. but you don't have to contribute to the problem. you don't need to have 50-100 people, spamming all these AOEs and heals and all that crap, to take a keep. almost everyone that plays in wabba, at this point, knows it causes the server to crash. if you continue to do it, then you WILL be partially to blame.So it's DC's fault that the servers cannot handle the currently set pop cap?
and I wish you people WOULD stop doing that crap. it causes a lot of lag, skills to be delayed/ outright stop working. siege equipment to not work, and damage delay to(by that I mean you get attacked, but you don't take the damage until 5-10 seconds later).Edited by Cody on July 23, 2014 1:33AM2 -

We were "promised" quite a few things. None have come to light. ZoS devs should run for president.

dbishop✭✭✭Visible player limit might help the mess but then you have players popping in and out which is even harder to figure out who is attacking what.
A solution might be to spread the flags out a little so you don't have the mass of bodies in one location.
Either way its a mess. DC is causing the issue to occur but the devs need to fix the problem.2 -

Kiljaz✭✭✭The reason DC is blamed is the reports of zone chat encouraging people to try to crash the server...5
