Post here your issues with lags and server instability

[TheMask321 159]

Is someone messing with their servers?

I saw some posts regarding DDOS, that too internal

I hope they have nice anti-DDOS programs. Cloudflare said they had once 65Gbps DDOS and they managed to overcome it

80% of cases is probably the player's internet not the tanki servers

Hi there, recently for about two weeks now- the game just decides to kick me out with a message of server port has been closed, once refreshing the page it returns back into the battle.

 

Please note that when i say refreshing it takes it 2-3 minutes to load again- many times resulting in the game ending before I can make it back in.

 

In addition some times it returns to previous status just with lost precious time, whilst other times it returns with zero score in the "tab" menu even if I was first or second place.

 

It happens manly at important stages such as capturing flag or changing point. but can happen at any given moment. It also likes to leave in the last 5 minutes of the game.

 

I found this issue on all servers but server 3 has a lot of jumps and lags- these are not as noticeable on other servers. 

 

As you can imagine this is most annoying and frustrating -caused me not to play for a couple of days.  

 

TECHNICAL info:

I use the latest firefox version 45.0

windows 7

6 GB ram

64 bit operating system

internet info

ADB- Italia router "N" series.

internet speed is a minimum 40MB/s-- maximum 100MB/s

speed checks on "ookla speed test" and my service provider show that my internet is working correctly and up to speed.

country of residence is Israel.

service provider is NetVision.

 

More notes:

I've tried to play with all tabs closed, only the game opened.

I've tried to use other internet browsers -same or WORSE- internet exploder was horrible chrome was slow but ok safari was the same opera needed permission on every page to enable flash.

 

friends have encountered the same issues and bugs.

 

unrelated issue- when I said friends invite links to join the game it does not link their account with mine, happened more then once.

 

Other then that ----> I really really LIKE the game and THANK YOU for your HARD work, thank you.

love the game and appreciate all that you are doing :)

You will know if you start lagging it happen when your ping is about 200

[Spit_Fyre 334]

Today I faced a new kind of lag, I have never experianced before.

I have to watch it closer... so I'd like to ask if other experienced that too:

 

 

Today was the first time, my hull was affected by enemy shots, that I could not see.

We all know the lag effects  like

- "Rico bullet seems to fyl by you, but then impacts on your hull, punshes you and deals damage"

- "Rail seems to shot through corners"

-> ok, understood, accepted.

 

 

but today I was driving, I was dealt damage by something, but I saw no impact on my hull of the enemies projectile.

It happened a couple of times during a 15 minutes battle today.

As I drive a Wasp, I can see how my Wasp is pushed aside, but there is simply no explosion, no nothing.

 

 

any one else experienced that since/after today?

Omg! I thought it might have been a random hacker. The one I encountered was a firebird who was simply frying an entire team and raking in the score. I couldn't see the flames. The team(well actually, just one other person who chose to respond via chat) couldn't either. Thankfully everyone on our team had sense enough to target him.

 

I should look into getting video recordings one of these days...

Haven 't had any crashes or major lags these last days.

Maybe I 'm just lucky, but the loading of battles etc. has been pretty smooth.

 

Hopefully they fixed it!

[r_Your-Daddy3 605]

Not lagged for a few last days.But still a bit work is needed on lags.I often get ping high for a moment.Like im playing with fine ping ,suddenly my ping goes high and then after some time is fine and so on.

My own, not faked.  Deal with it :p

Our programmers are really close to solving the issue guys. Once it's done, get ready for some double battle funds, as a compensation for all the inconvenience. I'll keep you updated on how things are going via this thread. Stay tuned!

Dawdle* of RU1-3

*Lag :P

 

Look guys, I will try to be as to the point as possible. 

 

I joined this Rio CTF in EN2. A good battle it was; 3 golds - got 1 of them - big fund, 60 FPS and 50-88 PING. No problem. My usual specs.

 

Then I decided to go play XP/BP - I thought I needed to get my hands off of my drugs and go non-drug mode - and went to RU1. Typical server lag it was. I joined a Rio CTF there and it was the worst battle I've played in my career. Somewhere around 18-20 FPS and 180-200 PING. Several lag spikes caused me to achieve the glory of 999 PING. Lost the 30k fund.

 

My PC/laptop specs if you don't mind:

• Laptop: lenovo G40
• Processor: Intel^® Core i5-4210U CPU @ 1.70 GHz  2.40 GHz
• Installed Memory: 4 GB RAM
• System Type: 64 bit OS, x64 based pocessor
• OS: Windows 8.1
• 32 MB Bandwith PTCL Wired/Wi-Fi connection. 
• PTCL Router 150MB Bandwith

PS Im getting an Alienware in April ^_^

 

So, what do you guys think?

Thanks for the update :)

I honestly thought you stopped thinking about it already..

hello tankers, especially  the creators or morderators or what ever you call them ;)

I love to play tanki online but it starts to lag.my fps is always either 20 or 12.this problem has started since I started playing :( :(

I play on a 32-bit operating system so I don't have the shadows or soft particles to slow the fps down.and lately ive been playing longer battle and right at the end,the game crashes!!! :angry: :angry: :angry:

plz fix this :(

i know my pc is crap but my ping and fps is very good

fps 600-999

ping 10-15

 

but I'm still lagging :C

Yeah, keep telling everyone that. The garage is loading half speed now. Looks like they moved some resources to stop the servers from seizing up and losing connections. But this is still really bad, because your "net frame rate" is lying to you -- I have clocked it at 60% of what it says, which screws up most aiming for Shaft and Smoky.

If your players leave before Tanki Unity comes out, you won't HAVE a Tanki Unity...

Yes. The true measure of what you can do is EXTREMELY inconsistent. I have seen the "mysterious" pin spikes (999) that herald a truly bad battle experience: slow pickup of power-ups, ridiculous garage times during a battle, and difficulty in getting a shot off with a given aim.

This has been an acknowledged issue for 3 weeks now: they didn't admit it for nearly three weeks more. The server connections are unreliable, meaning that one battle goes fine, the next is horrible: can't shoot, steer, pickup cubes, or take flags in "real time." Then you go to the garage and you can't get back into the battle (surprise!). If you reset, you find the battle gone or your score zeroed.

Things have gotten shoddy and all the tweaking in the world on your part will not improve them.
