Titan is hard because your camera isn't zoomed out, not because of server-side delays

[Goreth]

I haven't had any issues with Titan HM to date. It probably is a mix of using wrong camera settings, not paying attention and having ISP issues.

If I zoom my camera out far enough, it makes it look like you bothered to read any of the thread, maybe the devs are on to something after all.

This is my favorite post of the day, thanks!

Just because its possible to doesn't mean there isn't an issue. Stop acting like the game is difficult. The issue isnt that it is making the game impossible, its just annoying as hell. Even interacting with objects is way more tedious than it needs to be

I don't think it's difficult. Personally, I think most people getting hit by it are just not good enough. When a static group of players from around the world can consistently do it without issue, then it's apparent that any lag problems are on players' end.

Someone is always suffering from routing issues in online games, but it becomes more apparent when there are stricter game mechanics and less servers spread across a very small geographical area. That's why services like WoWTunnels/Pingzapper exist. Whether or not it's SE's responsibility to take it up with ISPs is debatable, but if anyone has been watching their news feed, they'd know that's exactly what SE is trying to do.

Lol.

In before "I make money selling Titan HM runs there is no problem, move along now."

If the game now turns off your monitor before casting WotL, some really good players can still avoid it. That doesn't mean turning off your monitor before a spell that obviously relies on you seeing where it is can be considered an acceptable mechanism.

You can avoid all the stuff on Titan if you're good enough (and easier for certain classes that can be constantly moving). That's not the point. The point is that you're not supposed to have a modern MMORPG where you can't tell if you actually get hit by an AE. In other MMORPGs, you don't have to worry about if the screen is lying to you. In this game, you do.

Would you be so kind as to provide a source?

So according to you, everything must be able to be done even if you suck.

As much as I appreciate your sense of humor and trolling. Not really on par to what I said.
