RIP Chillrend

Huntler · April 2015

It was nice while (for the most part) you remained lagless. It was only a matter of time I guess before you know who came.

derpsticks · April 2015

Yup, I'm consider a switch to somewhere else. Over the last week the lag has gotten worse and worse and tonight the rate at which ep took emp sicked me.

Yawn

WarrioroftheWind_ESO · April 2015

I'm guessing something to do with a certain guild who likewise ruined Haderus?

mtwiggz · April 2015

It's absolutely hilarious at how laggy Chill became yesterday.

Legedric · April 2015

What the hell are you talking about?

WRX · April 2015

this is terrible news. the campaign choices after blackwater blade grow shorter and shorter.

I blame columba. Its the zerg blobs revenge!:D

I believe its more of a certain EP player group spreading, as opposed to the lag spreading... but what do I know, Ill just keep resetting my modem.

Jauriel · April 2015

One can only pray they pack up their bag of cheap tricks and get out of Thorn. The game is so fun when they aren't logged on and so unfun when they are.

yes and no, its a certain EP group alright, and lag follows them no matter where they are at. chillrend was the laggiest its ever been last night, was it a coincident a certain guild transfered over to chillrend, i think not. ZoS just needs to shadow these players and make sure they are not doing this on purpose. how is it every where they are the servers want to s*** the bed.

It amazes me how people blame a whole group of people for causing the lag when in reality, Chillrend has been lagging really hard for the past 2weeks at least every evening during peek times. I have been there, I know what I'm talking about. The group everyone blame for lagging the server recently switched, yesterday evening. The lag was happening way before their arrival and it is not the fault of anyone, not even ZOS.

The recent change of the game to B2P brought thousand of players new players, and old players back into Cyrodiil. When 3 factions are max pop and a big fight happens around a keep and inside on the flags, lag always occurs. NO MATTER what, it does occurs. Shut up already with the blames and get real. The only reason you QQ is because a certain faction got emperor and captured a scroll. Something you tried really hard to prevent without success. Don't tell me you were lagging in that cave when u tried to run the scroll back, nah han. You got outplayed in a lag free environement.

its probably because the guild who shall not be named is next to you all the time, lol. things were bad last night, i dont think my ping went below 200 for most the night and was spiking like crazy all night. before the guild who shall not be named showed up atleast ping would normalize back down to 60-70. this delay in abilities is what made me change campaignes to chill to begin with, and looks like i will have to change again because of these guys breaking the server. ill probably go back to thorn, it probably doesnt lag like it used too and is the new chillrend now.

LOL Yeah, now that they mention it; I didn't have much of a problem with lag last night on Thorn. Of course there was some times where we were like "Where is everyone?" but then we would run into them and still didn't have much problem.

Will say people are not spreading out, though. That why in a lot of places we didn't see anyone it seems. Looks like they all would be sticking together more than ever and would finish their fight before going to track down what is attacking them somewhere else. To EPs credit; i am amazed on how many of them are able to respond so quickly.

The group everyone blame for lagging up the server recently switched yesterday (march 31th). I have played regulary on Chillrend for the past 2weeks and let me tell you that my ping has gone all the way up to 3-4k several times when a certain group of AD or a certain group of DC would be fighting around keeps. I'm not blaming them. It is the fact that all three factions were pop locked with at least 40 players in the same area using aoe spells. Go back to Thornblade if you want, the same thing will happen there unless one or more of the following solutions happen :

- They lower the population caps, again (even if I would not like it);
- They find a way to improve performances during primetime;
- They find other ways to spread out people even more.

Note : spreading out people won't change much because in the end, all it takes is a full raid of experienced players to use alot of aoe abilities against another group to overload the server when all factions are max pop.

RUN RUN all you want to.......The guild that you refuse to call out will follow you because all they want to do is fight top talent. You're not getting away from it. Period.

Agrippa_Invisus · April 2015

I've been on Chillrend several times these past two weeks and there's been lag during multiple fights, even ones out in the open.

There was a battle with a well respected AD guild NW of Aleswell and when both our teams opened on each other, the server started lagging and ultis started replicating themselves. Luckily it didn't last long due to the lack of flags to force a stack on and one side being vastly outnumbered. I messaged the Subaru in charge of the group and we had a conversation about it and came to the conclusion it was just the stacked AOEs and were able to shake hands and move on.

It wasn't intentional, but Chillrend certainly has the potential to lag out when two groups like that smash into each other while surrounded by zerg.

Fixed.

And to counter your first paragraph, I too have been playing Chillrend, since 1.6 went live and while yes there has been lag at times, in the overall scheme of things it has been relatively minimal. Never for as long or felt like last night. Last night felt like thornblade all freaking night. But pat yourselves on the back for zerging everything down and "outplaying" people

.

You do realize we were farming red the whole night? We were never going to be able to keep the scroll once we wiped an entire zerg to take it, spawning was too close, our goal was to kill red that was it (which I why where we fought was where we fought). I like how you somehow think that entire experience was anything, but a win for us.

As fengrush said (can't believe I'm agreeing with him),

this is what denial looks like.

I got that recorded with the latency showing up and a 15 VS 20 inside that cave. Should I link it here?

By all means, please do. Make sure to show it from the beginning, oh and make sure to show the part where it was so laggy that I got feared through the world before we even got to the cave and were down to only 1 healer too

Funny how if your RP event is getting trolled, a GM will descend upon the troublemaker, and quickly banish them.

If your entire PvP server is getting trolled by a group of individuals, and brought to a grinding halt, you get crickets. You better not even mention it. You are not allowed to call attention to the problem. inb4 thread lock.

No naming and shaming in this thread, at least so far. Just lamenting the fact that a server I have been having a lot of fun on since there were good numbers, relatively minimal lag, etc. is now basically thornblade 2.0 within 1 day. It really does suck

Was worth a shot, many people keep claiming they have videos... if anything I want enemy videos of them wiping us. Good material to learn from
