    Every single season has had HUGE amounts of lag. Cryptic, you knew this was coming, why did you not prepare for it?

    After waiting for LoR for so long we're denied due to Cryptic not having equipment that can manage with the load. Not cool at all.

    Wouldn't bet on it.

    This is a really, really bad start Cryptic/PWE. It's getting very old, very fast. Can we PLEASE see you actually update AND expand your servers soon, since they are incapable to handle this load.

    Bumping for news...

    Brandon, have you heard anything?

    After the client crashed for no reason I can't seem to get past the ''Retrieving list of characters'' with the failed for no good reason. How ever, got through one time, but failed after trying to load character.


    Not that I ''told you so'', but this is a complete failure of a beginning.

    Yes I have RoadRunner as you might have seen from the server responses in the tracert.
    I live in Jamestown, NY witch is the west tip of NY State. It definitely seems to be on Cryptic/PW end for the lag. Perhaps it's time to upgrade the servers or rethink hosting two popular games on a single server. I know it's not cheap to run a server as I work for a small company that hosts many websites, but still pretty bad when I have results like the above and still can't even take a step forward in-game.
    Former L2 player. Hope this one is better with botters, got sick of one person running a full 9 man group.

    SFC Crash. formerly of HG on the formally known gustin server of L2.

    That would be considered thinking in a way that would cost money. Not a suggestion that apparently falls in good PWE/Cryptic ears.

    It have been suggest for such a long time, by so many people, and even then they are so clever to smack in Neverwinter on the same servers. I could have told you something like this would happen and it did. So no surprise there. My surprise however are that they haven't shut down the servers yet and given more information out on what is going on. Just takes a few minutes not to spit the customers in their faces and leave them to speculate on if they ever going to use those items they paid a good fortune on.

    Same story, well into june, and now lately i have had server locks or kicks that go well into 13 to 28 times per hour. the only reason i even kept trying was i was in a group mission and they were counting on me......

    Please Cryptic? please work this out and be up front with us??

    please?
