As I write this, i am currently experiencing lag and rubberbanding. I have lost connection to the server two times. I tried to move to Monster Island, but the lag and rubberbanding existed there aswell.

I wonder, am i and my friend the only ones having these issues currently and any ideas on that might be causing it?

    What exactly is rubber banding? I have disconnects too... Especially in the middle of smashes -.-

    Rubberbanding is when players (or yourself) will appear to move in one direction, and then suddenly be teleported back several feet where they once were a few seconds ago.

    I was noticing this yesterday. Same issue, rubberbanding and random disconnects.

    I've been noticing this as well over the course of the last few days.

    Yeah, I've been rubberbanding like crazy for the last couple of days now. Strangely, STO seems to run fine.

    Also encountered DC and rubberbanding issues since yesterday, CO only. Two days ago everything was good and STO doesn't seems to be affected even now.
    I wonder if it has anything to do with the Anniversary event enabled.
    CO chat server works just fine, I can have lag with everything else in game, but chatting works ok with no delays.

    I've been getting tons of bad lag and rubberbanding.

    I get stuck in locust tunneling and I can't turn it off. Oftentimes I get stuck running in place.

    When I logged in to Canada and my auras did not show, my powers wouldn't activate, not all my missions were listed, and the NPC's ignored me.

    I can't do Infilatrate Project Awakening because the lag is so bad. The NPC's can hit me but I do no damage to them, and when I die I just lay there on the ground and it won't let me recover.

    It's not just during peak hours. I'm getting lag at 6 am too.

    :frown:I've been getting this myself for the past few days. Almost a week it seems. The DC's are bad enough, but the rubberbanding is making the game unplayable to a large extent. Like has been mentioned, this is NOT at just peak hours. I'm in the eastern part of the US and it's been this way at various times from 6am through 4am over the past few days.
