instead of addin hardware and resources they push game wide nerfs on procs. Which hurt alot of classes SOME more then most. On my server we have people cryin about of lag because of server population,.. which is,.. horse ,.. you think we really had more pop even after the merger then in our hay day? sure its totally pop. NO! i can be hangin out in PoK helpin peeps yet i get chat lag,.. universal chat goes down,.. and you want to blame procs? I can be in an instanced raid and lag just the same as if i was in pok Yet yer main blame is server pop? NO!. Im gonna say its cause they are cuttin hardware back and resources. we prob will never know unless they tell us. thier shareholders need some $$. this is why we are about to hit 22 years people,... if you want it to live,.. have to get more and new peeps THEN ACT LIKE YOU CARE with mirco transactions and the STUFF that is freemium, its not helpin bring in new people. raids that are YEARS ole still have prestige tags on items,.. pretty stuipid,.. but its ok,.. keep tryin to change 1.0s after they been out for YEARS. that will help the current stuff Step up,.. and really show you care about this history makin game with all kinda anstolgia.
It is going to take me all night to figure out why you chose Horse as the title of this post. Thank you for giving me something to do.
He chose it because the word he wanted to use after horse was get blocked by the filter. It's pretty inconsiderate though, I mean other species defecate too. Why does the horse get all the attention?
here let me help you !! https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/server-lag.273422/ your welcome
I am sure it isn't easy or cheap to add new hardware that will actually improve performance when dealing with 25+ year old code.
Considering the forum language filters I find it's best to go with horse ITSH Learned it from the late great ps2 art dev T-ray.
You are talking about a thread that was posted the night before an update with changes that are designed to fix the lag? If you really wanted to complain about the method they chose you should have done that last week after the changes got pushed to the test server not after it has been pushed to live and servers come back up.
totally agree, but i have in on other threads, since i had down time i figured i post this one,.. cause its more then just lag if ya read my first post.
And from what they posted it is suspected that the crazy amount of procs that can happen off a single cast is a major part of the lag. From my understanding it can be 40+ procs/checks from a single cast and can go a lot higher if you get lucky.
but like they posted even on the patch notes,.. this a temp thing,.. they tryin stuff out on us,.. prob cause its either best bet after cuttin resources. A dev even said they prob gonna boost proc damage,..after this. Yet they dont know yet
