PVP almost unplayable

[thereal_aliceanders]

Don't worry this post isn't about pre-made groups. It has to do with the amount of lag I've been experiencing. Now before you start to blame me I'm using a hardwired connection and the PC is pulling 700mbps with 36 upload. I've closed all unnecessary programs running in the background and still I can't get a game where my attacks are delayed or I'm stuck running into a wall. Oh well here's hoping (doubt it) that it will one day be fixed.

Legit might need to look in to trying a VPN like mudfish. Cheap and easy to setup although its metered by usage (Although I topped up $5 months ago and still have most of it. only use it when the NTT nodes go to crud.

Try doing a tracert to 204.2.29.96 (thats one of the crystal servers) and it'll show you where its slowing down

I get 143 ms ping, and I'm across the pond in the UK

when pinged the servers from EU to NA.. had between 80-130..... from EU to EU servers where I live around 12-16 latency...

Assuming the routing is going through some bad wires to the US is probably my main concern and probably a field that ISPs over there might be saving coins on on the end of hurting the consumer as they probably got no other choice.

Typically its the NTT nodes, theirs a thread in the tech section about it (I came across it 3 months ago when they randomly started making connections from the UK hit over 700ms)

Fix for it is unfortunatly a VPN. Not really sure whos fault it is, but you know neither SE or the owners of NTT will admit they cocked it up lol
