    What is going on with your servers lately and what are you doing about it?

    If it's not being dropped from matches right at the end it's now started to be huge amounts of lag spikes that a fair few people are experiencing judging from the forums. Are the devs aware of problems with their servers? What is going on?

    This is what I've been seeing today:



    If this isn't fixed in a timely fashion then the open beta will be a complete write off.

    Platform: PC
    Region: Europe

    These are all the threads that I could find that have popped up recently about the increase in disconnections and lag:

    That was ridiculous. I'm on PC myself in Europe but haven't seen anything like that. On Virgin 100mb cabled to the router. You on wifi by any chance?

    Nope. Cabled 100mb Virgin as well. Perfectly fine on the other online PvP game I played today. For Honor has been running as smooth as butter for me ever since dedicated servers with the exception of the DDOS attack of course.

    This is literaly the first time I have had this level of lag since the launch of deciated servers. I only saw this kind of lag back when it was running on the peer 2 peer network but even then I only rarely experienced this extremely severe level of lag.

    The game was fine up until the last update on Thursday. Ever since downloading the patch I'm having disconnections and now this lag business when I've never had such issues before and for this long and getting worse.

    I just played yesterday and there is this aramusha that has 90 ping and is like son goku teleporting and hitting with unseen attacks. At first it was normal. No lags, no teleportation and smooth game. But at the end when they are losing is where he started to have the odd phenomenon.

    I was going to say that it might be server load due to the recent giveaway, but then I remembered I just queued for 5 minutes for a game. There must be something going on though, too many people complaining of it atm.

    I experienced this kind of lag mostly in duels. They usually get kicked from the match shortly after.
    Dominion has been really strange. Players have been dropping mid-fight and on a rare case I've been having extreme FPS loss towards the end of the match.
    Also one time while the map was loading in pre game lobby I lost controls to the map overview and hero overview. Then when the game started I completely lost controls and couldn't move or anything. Had to quit out and restart application.

    200k people on PC in steam made servers broken.=)
    Just wait when this number will return to 2k and everything will be fine.

    Hey folks,

    I'll take a look into this. Is this predominantly on PC, from what I can gather?

    Cheers,

    Jim.

    Yea, im also just getting choppy gameplay in general lately. like if the enemy has higher latency then I'm getting choppy gameplay. I used to be able to parry warden zones and orochi regularly but lately it feels like i can't parry them so I'm not even trying. :/ its pretty frustrating to say the least. Maybe this is part of the same thing going on with the servers? Anyone else having a tougher time in general parrying things they could before? I don't think I aged that much in 2-3 weeks...
