Lag in Thornblade (NA) is terrbile!
Developers please find a way to fix these huge lag spikes when more than 40 players get in a fight.
Being able to repair walls while there is so much lag is the new defense strategy. Spam AoE till no damage is happening..repair the wall to full...win!
Even in open field battles of >50 players becomes a exercise in futility.
I have a good fast ISP and usually have a ping of <100 once the large battles start is goes up into the 1000's. I saw around 3000 ping last night during a large battle at sejanus (according to my Wykkyd's Toolbar add-on). Some guildmates were reporting it was pegged out at 9999.
I am not complaining about any other faction, its nobody's fault but the game mechanics. Most of my guildmates logged out in disgust/frustration last night not because the war/battles were going badly, but because we could not effectively use skills during battles.

Lols and here I was thinking the removal of FCs would have the added benefit of preventing the massive lag we see with the epic battles depicted in all those shiny pre-launch Alliance War promo videos

Valymer✭✭✭✭✭It helps some but when three factions collide in the same area the architecture just can't support it no matter what, it seems.0

This is one reason I always questioned the "move to this server" stance on lag. Sure the pops are lower but it doesn't seem to matter as once a bunch of players converge on a location in an effort to recreate those epic pre-launch videos Zeni showed us the lag bomb hits. And I don't chalk it up to Impulse spammers or Healing Springs spammers I chalk it up to a game not ready to meet it's own expectations for the truly epic PvP battles they showed us. With time we can only hope . . . . but I know the patience of the community has been tested . . perhaps tested enough that Zeni should be hard at work on the solution to this SERIOUS issue.MAIN
