Thread: .3 Second Positional Update Delay (Requesting Dev Response)

Developers almost never answer any hard questions, probably because they're dumber than the fan base they think they're fooling. Despite the fact that no MMORPG has ever solved a problem by pretending it's not there, it's still a standard play used by virtually every MMORPG out there. It's true players in general may demand dubious/crazy/impractical solutions, but players are almost never wrong about the fact that a problem exists. You shouldn't count on your players to come up with solutions to the game's problem, but they're definitely very good at identifying them.

Yeah.. I'm not holding my breath either... but it doesn't hurt to ask all the same. I think some part of me still holds a tiny shred of hope that something will happen when 2.1 comes out and they just haven't talked about it yet.

Same goes for all skills, interrupts, stuns, silences etc. Even a potion takes effect after animation, so it is possible to get into situation, where you successfully use a potion and it is consumed (disappears from your inventory), but you get hit just before the animation ends - and you die, because the potion effect did not apply due to "drinking" animation still playing.

Right, and I really wasn't arguing that that bit wasn't working as intended. But that bit isn't really what this thread is highlighting at all.

Ring was here -O- and I was here..... Y still got hit.

+1

This needs to be addressed.

Kind of glad i stop playing this game. The fact that i would Raid Clear Coil up to Turn 4 on Saturday and then Max my Myth on Sunday. Ok now what. Oh thats right i have nothing else to do.
Even worse the fact that i stand outside Red Circles and still get hit. Like What the hell. Wow doesnt have this and its 10 years old . Like how did SE just get it so wrong.
If you check accepted bugs . This is in there. So dont expect it to be fixed anytime soon.
SE is just bad at making MMO end of story.
They did there best and it didnt work..

GG back to WOW

I am quite bummed, the game is beautiful and enjoyable, but there were a few fights for me that just seemed too unfair due to this. I hope this gets fixed and the momentum continues.

If any f you actually check the "resolved issues" in the technical forums you will find two posts that deal with lag..... here is the response on why it is resolved.

Made me laugh a lot
