They did a partial patch for the ping today. However, one of the lag issues has nothing to do with SOE. Apparently, a third party program similiar to (but obviously not) Macrquest (actual name got me I don't use third party programs) that sniffs packets to track spawns causes horrendous lag when multiple copies are running in a zone.
So last two nights you would have three non-asshat guilds running around in APW or Fumebeso (APW Key mob) spawn ares at around 200-400 ping then suddenly ping would jump to 4k for everyone because a fourth guild running VGpacketsniffer entered the chunk.
To anyone and everyone running that program a big fuck you. The mob was unkillable with that kind of lag -- heals could not land in time. You wasted your own guild's time and the time of hundreds of other players.
The fucking mob has a static spawn point that it always paths from you just need to sit at the spawn point and wait. You could have gotten your keys in one hour or less if you had turned the fucking program off. So again fuck you. |
This sort of outdoor spawn needed for game advancement is all manner of fail.
