Lag in Instances + Endless "loading" screens when transitioning to a new area

[Roarka_Odinson]

I have to admit, most of the players In Mateus, US server have complained to me about this issue today. Also I experienced firsthand when I attempted to tank my First Roulette. This is being currently addressed on EU servers, but it needs to be fixed on US as well. From what I gather it seems to be a game-wide problem since 2.2 patch, but more specifically since they did the Emergency Maintenance last night. Lag is just unbearable to do any dungeons.

Also experiencing lag on Hyperion. Just ran Haukke Manor (HM) around 8 PM EST and my party members were also having similar issues. Having to button-mash to get abilities to fire off and interacting with items (for example Tiny Key and Locked Door) takes a lot longer. Been monitoring my network traffic and I'm also not getting any ping spikes, nor have I had any of these issues before the update.

Lag is so bad right now I can't even get the launcher to bring up login area without getting a timed out error. Lag started to get worse as the night wore on. First indication of lag came when attacks weren't resetting as fast as they should have (minor problem, but tolerable). Second was when hitting an action multiple times just to get it to activate along with an issue where doing Diabolos in The lost city will cause Doors to not work properly. When I say not work properly, i mean that during the transition from one door to the other you become bugged and stuck at the exit door without showing up (remain invisible). The only way my pt could fix this was to logout then back in which usually resulted in a wipe (had to do this 3 times before the fight didn't bug). Then the final one is where I can't even get the logon screen to come up in the launcher, it just times out again and again or it gets stuck at trying to check if the launcher is even up to date.

Unbearable instance lag on Excalibur. Sometimes, there's minimal to no lag. But now, the norm feels like crippling lag where I'm hoping that the game registers when I'm casting Cure. Toto-Rak earlier tonight was nearly unplayable. Everyone in the party was skipping all over the place and half of my heals weren't registering. Virtually everyone I talk to in my FC says the same thing. If I'm out of a dungeon, I don't have an issue. It started late last night for me when I tanked Sastasha. Dungeons are just unplayable.

I feel like I'm healing naked.

It's different than the lag we used to get in the congested AK or WP dungeons when everyone was farming it for quick Myth tokens in that I can actually see my character casting, the animation fires, but that happy little healing number doesn't show up. Not the insane rubber banding and people not moving on my screen, if that makes sense.

4 Cure I's and then it fires. This happens for about 25 seconds and then the tank dies. We couldn't clear the trash in Haukke Hard Mode because of it. Sometimes I get the little red "disconnecting" circle next to my head, but usually not at all. The monk was complaining that his stances weren't changing appropriately.

I thought it may have been the dungeon, so I did a Low Level Duty Finder. Titan Regular-Mode was completely unplayable.

I don't think it's my end, Wildstar Beta is playing very smoothly and I haven't had any issues. I've been monitoring my ping and signal and all is normal. Judging by the in game conversation, they're aware; I just hope they fix it before the weekend is over.

Instance lag is very prevalent on Behemoth as well. Mostly only in higher level dungeons such at the new ones. Every other game plays smoothly and my connection is testing just fine.

Taking forever for skills to fire and sometimes they dont fire ever.

Have you guys been submitting these problems via the proper support channels? This is for user-to-user support... need to submit your issues where SE more actively looks for problems to be communicated.

There's already a bug report up for heals not hitting since 2.2 (misfirings of skills) and I've linked this thread in it at this point. Helps having an informative thread here too regardless cause a lot of people are coming on and going "Why is this happening?!"

The misfirings in the bug report directly co-relate to the issues had here so yeah.
