With the release of Steam, I find it great that we have a ton of new players joining. However, as it has been stated by the player base before the release, it was necessary (and obviously still is) to work on the server load. It is getting to the point where it is almost unplayable with the rubber-banding and other issues that are on a server side. I'm very disappointed that this was not addressed in the first place. Please let the player base know when you plan on fixing it, then I'll most likely return to playing (It's not my intention to say fix or I quit, I'm just extremely frustrated and disappointed that this should have been a known issue that was brought up by the player base before Steam release, and nothing was done it seems.) Admins are on to post messages "Please buy the deluxe pack", but not on to help with the servers?

game is simply unplayable for some and that's just moving about doing the odd daily quest, never mind trying to fight boss's or pull a few mobs.

We're going to be working hard next week to work out improvements we can make to reduce the effects of the lag on the game due to the massive increase in the game population with the launch on Steam.

 

In the meantime, please try switching to one of the other servers to see if that helps at all

Omg, I tanked RG and the rubberband effect hit me full force. I had the worst rg run I have since I was a noob 45 tank. I also went dps for Raz and he even look more like a noob than normal

 

Truth is what SD said. The game is right now unplayable for dungeons.

Thanks Hoof for the response. Hopefully, it'll be a quicker fix because it does almost make the game unplayable. Unfortunately, at the time of the post, US and Europe servers all had 300+ and had both. Oceanic wasn't as bad, but it was still rough goings. I'd hate to see the game lose players and ratings due to this.

The switching of the servers did help. I also realized that there's more chat happenings going on in the american server (specifically) than the Europe (where i noticed). Few people were talking about how the american server also encompasses south america as well..

 

And it's mostly lag spikes that happen on your servers, even with out the influx of the people it happened every so often.

thanks hoof but OC server is bad anyway before steam for me and both US and EU server are the same with the new lag.
