I've been playing for an hour and it's nothing but rubberbanding. Please fix this, or at least post something ACKNOWLEDGING it! Keeping us in the dark does NOTHING (except keep us ****ed off).
Lag and loading time should be priority one at this point. I for one am amazed at the lag when these shards are only supporting maybe 50 players? The combat instances look to be about 17. The biggest thing for me right now is the amount of time spent loading between instances. The inital client DL was nearly 8 gig. Why does it need to load so much so often?
Getting a ton of rubberbanding in all areas of the game: ground, space, and sector space. I'll run/move forward then "bounce back" 50 yards or more. Just started happening today.
This is on top of the nearly unbearable lag while in a space station.
I too have had rubberbanding and lag. I must say however, that the server ran smotth for until about 8pm GMT+1 (11am PST). Before that I had no lag and quick laoding times in all areas!
Just saw on the game they taking the shard down for maintance so hopefully this fixs the rubber banding an sever dissconncts that i have had all day today
This rubberbanding is out of control! But not like fun out of control like an awesome 21st birthday party in Vegas. It is un-fun out of control, like flesh eating bacteria or pancreatic cancer.
I only just started having rubberbanding today. Otherwise I've not had any lag issues. Occasionally I've had to wait a few extra seconds for equipped items to actually show up on the character, but other than that it's been smooth sailing.
Tonight was my first time playing, lots of rubber banding experienced. It was horrible about 15-30 minutes before the server went down. I couldn't run 15 feet without being warped back every 3 out of 4 times. This was usually accompanied by "Server Timed Out" or some type of red warning message. Hopefully this problem will be resolved quicker than SOE resolved it in SWG. :eek:
I have been getting a weird rubberbanding problem since after Thursday's closed beta. When I just log into sector space, I see everyone around me in real time doing things, and I get chat in real time, but if I try to do anything myself I rubberband. Typically sometimes I can get almost half way across a sector and I will get back to where I was originally.
It is really annoying, changing instances can sometimes fix this, if the lag isn't tough enough to not allow me to do that. Its really frustrating and some lag is understandable, but I just hope its fixed by release.

I dig rubberbanding over server drops every five minutes any day.
*really do want it fixed, but I trust Cryptic to get to it with the awesome job they did yesterday.
