Had a blast playing Diablo 4 with absolutely no lag, even during the world event. Came back to Orien for R1 skeletons, horrible lag. I was hanging in the air for 10 minutes, couldn't move and then dead. I just cant fathom how is this even possible!!

It's high time for SSG to follow this example from a small indie company.
Several reasons. I am sure Blizzard has infinitely more resources than SSG. The game is also build from the ground up, so new efficient coding behind the scenes. They are probably running their new shinny game on new shinny servers as well.Quote:

His comment was accompanied by a bit of a laugh, "for an MMO, you'd think the servers could handle less than 500 players."Quote:

All in all, the move has been a good one.
After DDO II, DDO III and on to DDO IV, I bet we would have a much more stable game. Alas, we are still running DDO I.

Diablo 4 looks and feels amazing but remember guys this is Blizzard. Sure there might not be much microtrans at the get-go but they will build and build until Diablo 4 becomes pay "$20,000 or be a scrub, loser!" real soon.
Also I personally like D&D lore better.
Also play both? lol.
I play D20s all the time, so much more options then a d4.
Heck, sometimes I roll percentiles just for the kicks of it.
The only lag I get is when I can't read my dice because of light reflection.
Oh and when someone is off table for drinks, snacks or a visit to the restroom.
Ya know, I'm looking at Blizzard (owned by Activision, btw), and I'm squinting really hard, and I just can't find any "small indie complany". :rolleyes::cool:Quote:
