Yoshi P addresses lag. Its time to deliever...

Both of these Gifs are pre 2.1. I remember seeing them before the positional update ever happened. As such they are USELESS for this discussion since the situation now is not the same as then. Get up to date gifs.

LMFAO, this is no end, Yoshi P sure hired these people to defend his IT issue...

Did you seriously not read...any of the previous posts that actually mattered? The packet loss stems from Level-3, an independent CDN which many ISP's rely upon. Yoshi-P would have nothing to do with this. We can only assume due to the numerous number of tickets that they are discussing ways to fix the issue with Level-3, but it truly comes down to their end. Not SE, not your ISP even, but Level-3. Please go back and look at the posts that explain all of this better than I could before posting nonsense.

I usually have 0 lag. there are times when an animation doesn't show but that is VERY rare. If the game isn't bringing in the major $$$$ to bring SE's game back up above water from the ever-so-popular 1.0, expect to not see any major changes in the game's server, routing issues any time soon.

Glad you have some stable routing to the servers and can enjoy the game. (Not sarcasm) I use to and very rarely had any issues arise.

Can you perhaps share your input on one thing?

Can you explain to some of these folks how increasing the polling rate of a server isn't something the Internet just magically accepts.

That this change can in fact turn a stable route into a problematic route due to an increase in bandwidth which can / most likely is cost associated. Granted it could be a router issue along the route as well.

Or I am completely wrong. I will accept I am wrong at least, because I gain knowledge from it.

Regardless, those gifs are recorded, meaning there was already lag.

But more importantly, they are so irrelevant it doesn't even matter. These are indeed old gifs, regarding an issue from months ago that has been fixed. The -current- lag issue has nothing to do with it. See previous posts for explanation (directed at OP of images).

The issue is simple: Level3 Communications is doing a shoddy job... The particularly awful part of this is that there is nothing we or SE can do independently.

---------------------------------
I appreciate your explanation and it gives insight but -- Responsibility rightly belongs with the company which has proffered this mmo service/product as advertised.

Sub-par. Is there no OTHER company which can be hired INSTEAD of Level3 Communications? They have a monopoly eh?

SE is responsible. Period.

SE doesn't hire Level-3. Your ISP hires Level-3. SE use Ormuco. Which is fine.

Umm yeah, guess who Ormuco uses.

Here is a hint just incase: ORMUCO-COMM.car2.Montreal2.Level3.net

Seems there isn't a node with Verizon.xxx.xxx.Level3.net. Hmm...

Ormuco doesn't own a backbone like Verizon and Level 3 do.

Moving along...

My mistake, its early.

We all make them and I'm no exception.

Check how quickly that landslide disappears. That person was lagging to begin with.

Dude it's a gif, not real time footage.

Relax, I find them funny images. Also I'm pretty sure the positional update was only applied to certain instances, not to everything. I found the update helped in titan personally.

Anyway, I'm not here to join the argument.

EDIT: This one's even more amusing
