Lag

[panzer-runner 2]

It seems like the lag on servers has gotten so bad every night lately, its unplayable. Is anything being done about it?

 

One big problem is that the list of games doesnt show your ping to it, also in the game you have no idea what your ping is or anyone elses. The games also don't seem to kick anyone out for havibg too high of a ping. The result.... laggy, buggy servers and frozen games with people glitching and jumping everywhere. We have all seen it. But what is happening that it seems like its bad every night now? It's funny how the main page tankionline.com has no problems connecting. Here is my ping to it:

 

PING www.tankionline.com (62.152.60.170): 56 data bytes

The games, however, are unplayable.

 

I guess my days of playing this game are almost over. It's just no fun and really, really, unplayable. :cry:

 

On a related note: why would I pay good money to play on such horrible laggy servers? I mean, come on, if you expect someone to pay you, I expect you have a playable game.

(I have never bought anything here and prob never will at this rate, I can't trust it. Period)

We are fixing two bugs currently, which were the main source of lags. I suppose the game stability will increase in several days. And we'll launch two or more new servers - this will help.

I think that the theme is time for closing?

Certainly NOT. :shock:

 

Nyet, No, Not until the Lag problems are resolved for more than a day! Lets hope that happens and we can move on :wink:

This is why these threads should not be closed or deleted. I just tried playing a CTF game, and despite the fact that the lag issue has been better, it is NOT fixed. It was not AS bad as before, but there was still people jumping around / time shift, and other crazy stuff that looks like lag. Overall, I'd say it is getting better, but its not completely fixed and people will still see lag issues.

 

In one game, it was as bad as ever, fully frozen for seconds at a time, chaos!! :shock:

[panzer-runner 2]

Still horrible lag, unplayable again tonight :(

 

I tried, but give me a break already... this is not ready for primetime. lag so bad that the game will freeze for 30 sec to over a minute and then "catch up" with people getting flags etc all magically because no one is in sync, most likely because the servers don't care if one person has a ping of 25ms and the next 1800ms. But, who knows, right? :roll:

 

I tried with Firefox (windows) and Opera (windows) same bad results

 

BTW - I tried to ping another site based in Moscow, and no problems with connection, so it has to be the code of the game, or the servers themselves.

Deleting temporary internet files or cache , and not cookies, is what you may want to do.

As a personal experiment, using Google's Chrome gives you a better experience.

Chrome does work nicely indeed, I agree, but it will not have any affect on lag. Lag is due to either traffic congestion, or server overload.

 

BTW - Raaish, do you use Firefox on windows? or Mac?
