Cryptic: How to Alleviate Lag in Sol Starbase

SystemSystem Member, NoReporting Posts: 178,019 Arc User
The easiest way to eliminate lag at Sol Starbase is to allow players to set their own "Home" point. You could set them to K7, Sol, DS9 etc, any location with a bank and exchange.

As it stands now when people need to clear their inventories, check the exchange, put stuff in the bank (unless you're an Admiral 3, in which case you have access to the Cestus bank and exchange area - where there is no lag at all), people simply hit their Transwarp (Hearthstone/Home/Recall) ability and all end up at the same place; Sol Starbase.

This creates an issue where you have hundreds, maybe, thousands of people on the same few server clusters that are assigned to handle that particular zone.

If you would allow people to set their own home point it would spread the population around and presumably alleviate the lag in Sol.
