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

My ISP is absolutely fine. I get a little under 70MB/sec download and 5MB/sec upload. It's also worth noting that in past MMOs, I have experienced that whole thing you are talking about (when I did have a crappy net connection), and guess what? If I made it out of an AOE on time, as in the videos I posted.. I didn't get hit!

I apologize then. Not looking to argue. I too have had the bad connection in the past (with the fast forward) which is what I saw when I watched your video. But if you're saying its your recording device then I don't know. In the very first 3 seconds it definitely looks like everyone fast forwards but as you say it's your recording device.

I'm sensing a bit of sarcasm in your response. Here's a speedtest.net result I just did.

Now, as far as specifically to SE? I don't know. I haven't bothered checking that because in all honesty I am not going to sit and fight with my ISP for hours on end to try and change the routing for one program. Aside from that, if you are going to claim lag as the cause of the issue, then why isn't the issue present in any other MMOs (not SE) to date? Lag doesn't cause it, it can aggravate it, and make it worse.. but it's not the cause.

And I apologize for being defensive, but I am getting very tired of people repeatedly blaming connections when that isn't the root cause.

Honestly no sarcasm. I really meant to apologize for my misinterpretation.
