Posts: 12 Arc User
Everyone in the Archosaur server are having lag and disconnecting issues pings in game that will go from 120 to 7899 then back to 120 while others have their screen Freezing and others that disconnect all at once this is a major problem that should be dealt with because it makes the game almost unplayable I know we all enjoy the game and would love to continue playing it so Please fix this problem we all saw that it started at the last maintnence if that helps you any thanks 
And anyone else on the server feel free to post more comments about it till this problem gets fixed

I think it's only you who is having lagg, provide a copy of traceroute to Archosaur server.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

Of course I kinda figured the only way to not have to deal with the problem is to blame others for their mistakes makes perfect sense and buddy its not just me its server wide.
also im not the only one from this server posting about it so get your head out of your butt0 -
I didn't saw any other thread regarding lagg or disconnection issue on forums in any section of the forums nor here i saw any reply from someone else in Archsaour. So before passing any comments think twice what you are saying do your research first.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

and at the end...im getting DC right after login...well thats all about my luck in this game..never got anyting from it...only bad luck from the beginning...its like when you open like 8k dragons pack and got nothing but hey...never spent any real coins on it...it got be that, if u want something from a game you need to pay them anyways, i hope the DC problem will be gone soon...would like to play...i mean stand in catshop cause there is nothing to do after lvl100 except maybe talk to friends, the only thing keeps a lot of ppl in there, and then again, its would be really good game...with some modifications maybe, and i do appreciate the hard work of the PWI team, i know its a hard to do thing to keep the game alive, good work till now and good luck in future

I have a problem with my second client. When i simply start the ame with the patcher, it works fine. I opened the second client to dual-log. I managed to log in to the other account, but when i wanted to log in to a character, the client froze and i had to force closing it. I tried it several times, and still doesnt work.

# 1 So many Random Lag Spikes from Server

As the Title implies, recently for the past month there has been a sudden many lag spikes coming from the servers and not the internet we currently have. Also with all the sudden disconnection, reconnection and reconnection glitch/bugged. Mostly severely during the NW,TW phase

Dreamweaver's not the only ones having the issue, LunarCainEX. The TW last night on Lost City between ChinaTown and ThaClicK was followed by lots of QQ by members of both guilds raging about 2,000+ pings and 0 FPS, some of whom have computers that could run multiple instances of far more hardware-intensive competing games and who would normally have low pings even in full 80v80 TWs. At this point, I'd be inclined to say the issue is as much of Perfect World's nearly decade-old game engine as it is the server's hardware configuration and/or bandwidth allocation from PWE's ISP(s)

Guess not server. I do have the lag spikes too.
The current lagspikes started after DW server went offline for 40 seconds to a few people in europe like thursday or so. probably a hop before the servers.

# 1 West coast servers trying to crash out people out of the game aswell now? ?_?'

Reply With Quote Multi-Quote This Message Quick reply to this message
Anyone else, just have any of the {West Coast} Servers Crash you out of the game (similarly to what the {East Coast} servers have been doing there)???
((If so please leave your reports here so that V4l and the others may know about it incase it is acting up there on the West servers aswell...))
{HT Server} just crashed me out about 10 minutes back, when I was grinding on Bandits down in the desert area near the land of bleached bones & not a single other soul was down there so it wasn't too many people being in the area that did it?????
I was able to get back on again without much delay & didn't hear anyone WC'ing about it happening to them yet, but I am wondering if anyone else has had it happen to them aswell today....
I did the majority of that in the 10 minutes before I Posted the thread and came out totally green no probs on my end at all, other then the server suddenly going all cardiac on me after I'd been playing for hours without any known probs...
I actually thought the same thing you did in your posting Sylen when the crash out first occured, i was like () But the way it booted me was just like when we were all getting mass booted last year in that mass Dsc'fest we all suffered from (when we got a sudden (on/off) lagg fest for about 40+ seconds and then it just went nutz & froze the game out from under me so comepletely, that I had to {Alt tab} out and shut it down using task manager) the rest of my comp & internet connection capability were just fine, it ended up just being PWe that croaked it on me and went the way of the wind, it was both weird & annoying....
At this point though, since no one else filed likewise cast out stories of the game dropping them like that, I guess that the issue must of been an isolated regional hub prob between my isp & PWe, so I'm glad to know that it wasn't that the westcoast servers playing the good old boot game like the east coast 1s have been doing lately...

# 1 Disconnected from Server
04-22-2012, 05:54 AM
Hi,
I am encountering a problem with my toon that was last logged off in West Archo. My Vend toon cannot connect to the game. After logging in and choosing the character then clicking start, the black screen loads and Entering Perfect World.... message shows up. Then nothing happens. After a minute or so I get the Disconnected from Server message.
My main toon which I logged off in other parts of the map (except West Archo) can login without problems.
I just make sure to log her off away from West Archo to avoid encountering the same problem.

the same thing happend to me! after only 1 min loginig it says disconnect from server please login again , i was playing normally 2 days ago , suddenly THIS , it happens with all of the servers , i even reinstaled pwi , i have wireless connection and it works fine , my internet security doesnt have a problem with the online games eitheir , it has been 2 DAYS , i cant stand this!! please help!
This is just the first 6 pages on the forum and in everyone of these you told them it is their fault and not pwi's I have done my research and you have to now fix the problem finally because people are getting pissed its not us its you get over yourself and fix the game or lose customers how does that phrase go again "The Customer is always Right" if they are complaining about it on a mass scale there is something wrong and it needs to be fixed0 -
Ya wanna know what's really funny?$quishFace - Archosaur wrote: »wall of thread spam
You've proven a couple of things here.
1. That you must be a complete moron.
2. That you can read threads without actually grasping the content.
3. That you're a complete ****.
What's even funnier is that you've selected threads with people complaining about lag, QQing about lag, blaming the servers, and that not a single one has an ounce of data to back up the whine train.
Not to mention, that in everything you copied into your wall, completely ignores this post.....
Something else that's funny, not a single one of those threads responds to the above post with the information he's requested.SylenThunder - Sanctuary wrote: »People hate me for posting this over and over, but damnit, there's just nothing better to say until you bother to provide more information. And seriously, there's a much better chance that the issue is either on your end, or somewhere between you and the servers. Unfortunately, that can't be determined until you give us something to work with.
Common reasons that you can't connect to the servers, experience disconnects, or just have lag in general...
1. You don't have the three .exe files for the client set to run as administrator.
2. You don't have the game directory set as an exception in your antivirus/security software. (Especially with Norton360 or MSE)
3. Your network adapter driver is out of date and needs to be refreshed.
4. Your local area network settings are improperly configured.
5. You have more than one firewall and don't realize it. (Common with some modems.)
6. Your firewall settings are too strict. (Very common withNorton360, ZoneAlarm, and Commodo firewall.)
7. Your router is configured improperly. (Or it's just a cheap router that can't handle the traffic you're putting on it.)
8. you have a bad network cable.
9. You're using a wireless network connection. (Which leads to another huge list of possible issues.)
10. You have a lot of traffic on your local network that is bogging your router/modem down.
11. There's a fault in your router.
12. There's a fault in your modem.
13, You have a bad phone cord plugged into your modem.
14. There's an issue with your house wiring.
15. There's an issue with your outside wiring.
16. A squirrel chewed on your phone/cable line at the pole and it's raining. (I have personally had this happen.)
17. A switch/router at the CO for your ISP is having an issue.
18. One of the many hubs between you and PWI is having an issue. (Most common)
19. There is heavy sunspot activity. (Has happened within the past two years)
20. There's a regional router outage. (This has happened more than a few times. More often occurs with trunk lines crossing large bodies of water)
That's just a few. Sometimes, the easiest fix is something like shutting down your Modem/Router/PC for three minutes and then bringing them back up. Unfortunately, all you've done is complain about having high latency. You haven't done anything that might lead someone who can help you, to be able to help you resolve the issue you're having.
The more details you give, the better I can narrow it down and tell you what the issue is.
At an absolute minimum I would need a copy of a traceroute to the server, and detailed information about how your local network is configured. In some cases, even a published Speccy log.
You don't have to be a tech wiz to provide any of this information either. You just need to be able to click the links I provided and to read and comprehend/follow instructions. I can understand you're frustrated, but sitting and complaining about a connection, without actually ever attempting to fix it, or provide information for those that can help you fix it, it probably one of the stupidest things you can do. If you feel offended by this statement, then you really need to take a closer look at reality.
Which pretty much means that the whole lot of you fail. So you're a failure, quoting a bunch of other failures.b:chuckleb:bye

The real reason for the problems are they haven't updated this game's server hardware since it came out. My ping has gotten worse since I started playing this game as well nearly 5 years ago my ping on here was 90-100ish ping now it's 300-400+ constantly and I've played other MMORPG's within this time and my ping has always been really good on those games. All of these games the server's are on the west coast same as my server on here.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

Ppl on forums or Support Team won't be able to give any answer till u provide them any information, just saying that i'm lagging or dc'ing won't prove anything because majority of the players are able to login easily and play.

Your path to one MMO's servers is not going to be the same as your path to another MMO's servers. It's like comparing two different freeways, with two completely different routes and distances
I mention this because it caused me almost a month of troubles with my connection. (Took so long because AT&T sucks.) It didn't magically get fixed, they had to replace the connection and the cable.

Also, you haven't provided any info at all. So far all you've provided is QQ spam with no data on your system, your network, or a traceroute to the server taken at a time when you are having the issue.

Sure, your internet is just fine. Did you forget about all of the stops your signal takes in between your computer and the game servers? Just because your end is ok, doesn't automatically mean the issue is on the server.
I'd love to see a direct and relative comparison in the trace routes between your other perfect MMO's and PWI. (Taken at the times when you are having the issues with lag in PWI, of course.)
What it boils down to in the end though is this....
For a great many people, there is not an issue.
For a few people there is an issue.
If many people are working fine, and a few are not, you can be pretty sure that the problem is not at the source.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0 -

I wish I could but I don't play those games anymore. If it's not the server's then how come everyone I ask who played just as long say the same thing? They all say the ping has gotten worse over the past 5 years and they all only experience this on PWI.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

There are many things that can cause issue with a persons ping. If you're comparing the in-game number, you're already fighting a losing battle because that's affected by everything doubled, plus latency from your own CPU.Sidwinder - Heavens Tear wrote: »I wish I could but I don't play those games anymore.

The biggest problem is this....
People don't know what the hell they're talking about most of the time they complain about lag. Which is why I post what I post, and ask for the information I ask for.
You'll find a lot of people complaining about lag that actually have a problem with low frame-rates because of a slow CPU/GPU or system. Hell I've even seen it be a result of the security software on the computer.
To put it simply, there are many hundreds of things that can cause lag. 98% of them have absolutely nothing to do with the game servers or PWE's ISP.
If I have enough information, I can usually narrow down the source of the issue and can greatly improve a person's gaming experience.
Unfortunately, very few people actually bother to take the time and provide it. They would much rather sit and complain about it and continue as they have been.
I know a lot of the time I sound like I'm just sitting here QQing myself about the people that do nothing but whine in the forums. Sometimes, that's actualy true. Personally though, take a look for yourself. Peruse the forums. Take the time to quantify some numbers.
How many people post an complain vs how many ppl post with details on their problem. (I warn you that you will see a lot of my posts out there, and not all are nice. =P ) You will find that in the majority of cases where I am provided with information, I am able to return solutions. Those cases are just so few and far between.
If you put an honest effort into providing me with the data I ask for, I will put an honest effort into helping you resolve your issues. (It might just take me some time because this isn't my real job, but a hobby.)[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0 -

I hope this gives you all the information that you say i won't provide the reason it was never provided was you just asked for a traceroute without providing any information on the address for the server or exactly how to do it in the first place and you just now asked for computer specs so here are those as well0 -

Not sure what you guys are using, but it's not using a time measurement for the hops that I'm familiar with, and it's only got one measurement per hop.Traceroute

Going strictly by relative numbers though, both of you are having your lag at the Irvine CA hop, which is just a border router in-between you and the server. Shutting your PC and modem off for a couple of minutes and then booting them back up may get you a better route. Be aware that it might not though, that could just be the besta available path and it happens to suck atm.
Yours is hanging up at hop 13, which is mart of a major hub system that also gets a lot of international traffic from a trunk line. It's pretty common for that one to get bogged down, especially in bad weather or when there's earthquakes. Because of it's close proximity to PWE's ISP, it tends to affect more people when it has an issue.Sidwinder - Heavens Tear wrote: »Tracing route to pwigc4.perfectworld.com [64.74.134.59] over a maximum of 30 hops: 1 <1 ms <1 ms <1 ms 2 10 ms 7 ms 8 ms 96.71.46.1 3 10 ms 10 ms 9 ms te-0-0-0-7-sur01.greensburg.pa.pitt.comcast.net [68.85.72.153] 4 10 ms 12 ms 11 ms te-0-5-0-2-ar03.mckeesport.pa.pitt.comcast.net [ 69.139.195.21] 5 18 ms 24 ms 23 ms he-4-6-0-0-cr01.ashburn.va.ibone.comcast.net [68 .86.94.169] 6 16 ms 14 ms 31 ms be-16-pe04.ashburn.va.ibone.comcast.net [68.86.8 4.226] 7 57 ms 56 ms 55 ms as174.ashburn.va.ibone.comcast.net [66.208.229.1 34] 8 17 ms 18 ms 17 ms te0-5-0-5.ccr22.dca01.atlas.cogentco.com [154.54 .1.193] 9 80 ms 81 ms 79 ms te0-0-0-18.ccr22.ord01.atlas.cogentco.com [154.5 4.40.214] 10 92 ms 87 ms 94 ms te0-3-0-3.ccr22.mci01.atlas.cogentco.com [154.54 .6.214] 11 92 ms 101 ms 90 ms te0-2-0-6.ccr22.sfo01.atlas.cogentco.com [154.54 .45.70] 12 90 ms 91 ms 90 ms te0-2-0-6.ccr22.sjc01.atlas.cogentco.com [154.54 .30.22] 13 119 ms 203 ms 199 ms te4-1.mag01.sjc01.atlas.cogentco.com [154.54.84. 154] 14 92 ms 92 ms 92 ms 38.104.134.70 15 93 ms 92 ms 94 ms border2.t7-1-bbnet1.sje004.pnap.net [66.151.144. 20] 16 * * * Request timed out.

Again, you can reboot your systems to try getting a better route. Usually when those get bogged down you'll get re-routed through Seattle or Oregon.
Detailed info. That's basic hardware info. I didn't just ask for PC specs....$quishFace - Archosaur wrote: »Processor: LGA1366 Intel Core i7 965 Extreme edition

I require a LOT more detail about your system, your network, and how you're connected to help you resolve anything if it happens to be on your end.SylenThunder - Sanctuary wrote: »...
At an absolute minimum I would need a copy of a traceroute to the server, and detailed information about how your local network is configured. In some cases, even a published Speccy log.
You don't have to be a tech wiz to provide any of this information either. You just need to be able to click the links I provided and to read and comprehend/follow instructions. I can understand you're frustrated, but sitting and complaining about a connection, without actually ever attempting to fix it, or provide information for those that can help you fix it, it probably one of the stupidest things you can do. If you feel offended by this statement, then you really need to take a closer look at reality.
Judging from your earlier post with what appears to be some sort of traceroute, you've got some latency on your local network. I'd be able to tell you more though if those numbers had any relation to any normal testing tool.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0 -
So basically your saying its not my fault and its not perfect worlds fault its some other persons fault that none of us have control over.
Like Saying its not your fault your sick and its not the goverments fault your sick but its the doctors fault your sick because the goverment didn't provide the doctor with the medicine to properly care for you kinda messed up really 0 -
It's the internet. There are things you can do that may improve your experience. But some of it's completely out of your control.$quishFace - Archosaur wrote: »So basically your saying its not my fault and its not perfect worlds fault its some other persons fault that none of us have control over.

Look at it like this...
It's just like running into traffic on your way to work because there was an accident on the freeway. The internet is a data highway. Each one of those hops in your trace is an intersection or freeway interchange. If there's a larger amount of traffic going through that interchange that the lanes will allow, traffic gets bogged down. Exact same thing is happening to your data.
As I stated previously, if you provide me with the requested information, I will give you tips and tricks specific to your setup that may improve your experience. It just requires a lot of data. Speccy helps a great deal in drilling down your system, and network connections, layout, and hardware details can help me provide you with tips on eeking out the most performance from your configuration.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0 -

That one stuck out to me as well after doing this trace. Pretty cool thing to know for the furture. So I have to restart my PC to get another hub not just restart PWI?[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

well i did a lot to my computer like re-installing the graphics drivers defragmenting disc cleanup virus scan cleared all cookies turned the computer to performance instead of quality turned the 3d graphics to performence and high performence turned up my screen refresh rate from 60 to 75 and it made pwi run a little smoother for like an hour then it was back to being laggy again I think they really need to get rid of the whole catshop system they have might help a lot with the lag everywhere in the game0

Technically, you can just restart your router/modem and then just flush the DNS data on your PC. I find that sometimes it works better to just turn them both off for a few minutes, turn the modem on, wait for it to finish, then turn on the PC.Sidwinder - Heavens Tear wrote: »That one stuck out to me as well after doing this trace.

At a minimum, your router/modem will have to be shut off for a period of two minutes.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0 -
