Will the desync ever be fixed?

It's just an idea but, I wouldn't mind at all paying for PoE. I don't mean a monthly fee, more like an one time only payment, if I'm not wrong that's how Guild Wars 2 works now. With that income I'm sure they could start handling things better.

PS: To all of those who think desync is just a myth, here you go:



Check the latency box, that's how it is for anybody outside North America (At least that's from my own experience, I play in "America's" server -North America-, from South America)

I rarely post on the forums but the desync stuff is entirely out of hand at this point.

I understand not wanting a lot of cheating/hacking going on but I just went to the barracks and the first group of mobs I run into, I couldn't touch any of them. I ran back a bit and tried ago. Nope again.

The whole time I was taking damage. 15 seconds later, I can finally hit them. Next group of mobs by a shrine, about 30 come at me. Ground Slam again does nothing to any of them, but they seemingly have no problems hitting me. I didn't die but I kept having to run back and forth and keep trying until I could hit them.

No latency/lag that I am seeing at the moment on my end.

Its beyond frustrating to try and work with this going on nonstop. I don't remember ever having problems this bad through beta though I never got a character this high in beta. But I don't see why level should/would affect it.

Honestly, its killing the fun for me. I want to play the game - not fight against the lagmonster.

It's even worse on Merciless, I'd be level 70 by now if desync wasn't there.

I'm on Merciless now and yeah it has been really, really bad for some reason. Nothing has changed on my end except gear and level =P

No.

I thought this was a game feature and was really hoping ggg could add more in with future updates. When I watch rop streams I cry at the thought of going hours without desync. I mean what kind of maniac developer wouldn't add this into their game code at every chance possible. Leave it to ggg to climb to the top and give us enough desync to fulfill all of our gaming needs.

Most of you don't even know desync... try a blood rage / life leech / flicker striker and then we'll talk desync ;)

as long as you dont move your character or use any abilities you shouldnt desync.

you also shouldnt walk into anything either

But with desync, they walk into you.

Bro, look at my gems, I do know what's like.
The easiest solution, is to add more zone specified servers, so people wouldn't have to play with 400 ms, or 853 as the picture I posted on page 8 shows. And to do so the developers need money.. I still think a one time payment is a good solution for this, who would mind paying, I don't know, 10 bucks, 15, or maybe 20, for PoE? Monthly fees are a pimple in the arse but an onetime only payment would give the devs some needed money and I'm sure everybody here had the money at some point on their lives.
