Lag spikes since 3.20

I had smooth play all 3.20, as opposed to everyone else in the thread. The exception was once yesterday when ping rushed up to 5k and dc, over and over, for about 20 minutes.

Today same, ping up 5k and dc. Started 45 minutes ago and nothing prior.

GeforceNow streamed service also says they can't connect to poe servers. Every other test in their launcher it says I can't be reached either so might be a problem their end.

Same here.. today is awful. Lag Spikes from 8ms to 6000ms

Time to upgrade the pentium II servers

I had huge lag spikes Friday, when mapping, when going into Sanctum, in the HO, in the Conqueror's citadels, etc.

Today afternoon, these lag spikes came back/ It is like every 5 seconds, i jump from 20ms to 500ms, then bacl to 20ms, then 5 seconds later, 500ms.

Here is a list of things I tried so far :

Changed servers : no changes
Changed Renderer to Vulkan/DX12 : a little bit better, but lag spikes are still here

Changed the quality to low : no changes
unintalling, reinstalling : no changes
trying to fix corrupted files with Steam : no changes

Disabled Vsync : no changes
Put the Foreground FPS Cap to 120 : no changes, maybe even worse

So I don't know what to do next, it just feels like the GGG doesn't give a shit, as it seems pretty isolated, yet, a lot of people encounter these issues.

You are wrong. They do care...about payment problems. Everything else... They don't have the staff for it :D

Similar experience on Frankfurt gateway. Below 2 winmtr from 2 different realms on 23.01.22. First link from 11pm GMT. Second link around 10:45pm GMT.

Especially in 5ways and pure chayula.


Latency goes to the moond and then i DC.

I think we are kinda sick of this issue and GGG saying "please check with your provider"... its not on us, the servers and the anti ddos server is killing our sessions, please fix it....

Its really sad for the ppl who actually spend money (like myself) in this game to have such poor servers in 3.20 :(

Dear GGG-Team,

since two weeks (for me at least) i noticed severe-lag spikes (europe, frankfurt especially) when playing in the evening (gmt+1).

the technical support forum is full with posts from ppl with the same problem; yet no response whatsoever from ggg.
as it seems obvious that this problem is not on the user side but either ggg based or more likely server/peering sided i do not understand why there is no information about how you want to fix this problem.

in your own interest i do hope that you come forward asap, cause ppl are more patient with a problem acknowledged than not acknowledged at all.

best regards,

smumm

im very happy to use the forum.

pls point me to the thread where i can find a solution for the problem. if not possible pls link to an official statement from gg regarding this problem.

in advance this are "solutions" that dont work:

1. using other servers
2. using a vpn
3. changing dns-servers
4. change game settings

best regards,

and this is where we are. at this point its safe to say that the conversation is a one-way-street.

they dont care or they dont care about communication with the users. either one, they will keep doing it because we are single customers and not a united front.
