General Discussion - RIP'd in tempest, didn't even see myself die - Forum

Playing in lockstep mode i get the "freeze" for 5-15 seconds. If a disconnect doesn't occur my game races all actions to catch up. Fortunately, i was in farm environments and in no real danger. When i'm on hardcore that's the longest time of my toons life.

I thought when lockstep was implemented, if a packet drop occurred all actions completely stopped until catch up occurred. Not dozens of interractions racing to catch up to real time.
