Lag still on and after last (23.06.15) patch getting rubberbanding again

arion08

Hi, i just want to point that lag problems while less troublesome then 2 months ago are still in the game and killing the fun of a STF run. I get weapons that don't fire, powers that don't activate and so on. Lag problems are improved but quite far from being fixed. Today's patch only made things worse for me and quit a few others with i play with. I spent lots of time and resources building a dps toon that is yet to be complete, i play trying to improve and do the best run i can but lag is getting in the way every run in one way or another. I planned to buy Delta Pack and Presidio for both traits and ships and possible the new t6 Avenger as its my "first love " in this game but now i am thinking for what purpose ? to just have them ? its no fun investing in things u cant have fun with and the nr. 1 cause for this is the LAG. If i cant push the limits of my play and of my ships it not that fun for me ... its boring ... and even if this game its not a new one it has enough elements to be fun not only for me but for many ... until we get overpowered by lag and see that this is out of our reach to avoid. I have hope that more fixes to lag will be coming and until i see some improvement i will not be buying any new ships.
Please make this game fun again by fixing the lag.Ty.

Lag (rubberbanding and misfires) is a lot worse today than it was yesterday.

Something broke with today's maintenance. Regarding lag, it's a few steps back.

Lag is the worst I have had since it began around the anniversary event for myself as well. This on a fresh install of an OS with no other software running and running perfect connection and getting great connection up to the servers. Highest time is 44ms. So I doubt my network is an issue honestly. With little packet loss overall.

I have no lag, examine your local network, your ISP, and your own hardware.

Yes mate i already did that several times, it was the logical thing to do.

Welp, seems it's my turn to experience problems.
Have no clue as to why, but can't stay in the game for more than a few minutes today.
Kinda frustrating.
Guess I'll try the Ping-Thing and see where the trouble lies...
(though I'm pretty sure it's a Cogent thing again. always is when I can't play)

I hate it when I'm right sometimes.
Also looks like Time/Warner is monkey'n with stuff as well.

Today i am having the worst lags. This is comparable with the worst ones from 2 months ago. I free time to play this game and Cryptic is treating me like this ... I think u want to kill your own game by making people quit ...

No improvement with network connectivity to the game for me. If anything, it's worse now. Was stuck (could not exit) in the tailor with SNR repeatedly for up to 6 minutes at a time (had to close window and restart client to get out...now can't log back in), and that's just one example. Lag and rubberbanding is bad for powerboard races, horga'hn hunts, pretty much anything timed, and FEs (though not as bad as with House petaQ). Sitting still until everything seems to settle, but as soon as a command (move, shoot, use ability, etc.) is issued, SERVER NOT RESPONDING rears its fugly head.
FFS please fix the server and/or dump that worthless Cogent!
