3-4 second lag adding/removing group members, client crashes with groups over 12

This has been the case since open beta, and has never been fixed.

I, along with many others, simply cannot group (PvE or PvP) with more than 12 people or the client crashes to desktop.

Even with small groups, every time someone joins, leaves, or even goes offline, there is a massive (3-4 second) freeze of the game client, during which time you auto-die if you are engaged in combat.

An MMO where you can't group.... not a good bug to let sit in the backlog. When will this be fixed?

    Oh, good to see someone is experiencing this was well (in a good way), cause I though it was just my internet.

    I find that groups in Craglorn lag, especially Bala runs.

    Like you said. It is a bug known since beta, so it´s either too hard too fix or low on priority.
    At least i did not experience the game crashing during the lag anymore, so maybe there was something done in the background.

    I have also experienced this bug. Simply pushed me to run solo more and more in PvP.

    Yes, its a big problem for PvP, because you can't coordinate with a team while solo.

    I don't think its lag related. I've had days off during the work week when populations are low, and this "group-lag" happens any time, any where (pve, pvp).

    When we push v1.2.3 next week, we'll be implementing a fix for group lag that should address this issue as well.

    Tried grouping for VR5+ zones night before last & it was a lag/dc fest.

    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
