Lag on Argo right now is about the worst I can remember seeing

It was also pretty bad on Friday night. Whatever is being done to improve performance needs to be tweaked I think.

It’s not just Argo. It’s a different kind of lag nowadays. Expect 1-2 second delay on most mechanics. Circles give you less than a second to evacuate. Souls need stood on 1-2 seconds after they leave. Spells take 2-3 seconds to register. It’s annoying.

It’s client side, not host side. FYI. Turning setting down doesn’t help at all.

Yeah its not a performance issue on the client side or with my internet connection for sure, I can literally alt tab into another online game and play without issue while DDO chokes.

This.

Also playing with other people who all comment on the lag at the same time whenever it spikes for me strongly indicates it's not a client side issue, it's host. Or rather, I suppose it could be something wrong with the game client itself, but the client hardware and other software issues are ruled out.

In particular trying to interact in public spaces with doors, quest givers, or moving is generally met with watching your character get bumped around long after you stopped like it's still working on where you actually stopped moving.

The lag does effect quests as well, but to a lesser degree for me thus far. I could just be lucky tho? Not sure.

Well, Argo does have double the peak players of Orien right now. Moving Default Server from Argonesson to Orien would make sense. Lag free over here on Orien.

So player's should not want to play with other people, and should pay to transfer servers? I suspect you're just kidding and would like more people on your home server? Because this isn't a serious solution at all.

Yep argo's lags bad enough, that I've just gone to another game altogether cept for raids/raid pushing. Even then we can't raid push unless pretty much right after a reset due to unplayable lag.

Not kidding at all, totally lag free here on Orien as the lowest population server. Argonesson has been default server longer than probably any server ever has, so I am not surprised, that with double the population of Orien, it is now experiencing some lag.

It would be great if the servers scaled up infinitely, or even that the devs just decided that Argo was the new mega server and gave everyone free transfers there, and also provided compensation for guilds. That is not reality. Moving default servers is the pretty obvious solution, given the limitations that we have.

Server side lag continues to be a problem on Argo, most of this weekend during prime time.

Same thing with Gland. Like more than gland normal.
