I get your point but I'm not providing any proof to GGG whatsoever - one, because even fi I do, nothing will be done

You really don't get any point, you provide proof and IF it is on their end they WILL do something about it, it's literally a service they are fucking paying for and expect to get.

The problem is that almost ALL of the connection issues are the result of something NOT on the GGG end so if YOU don't diagnose your connection YOU won't ever get it fixed.

And the more people that bleat it's the servers only makes matters worse because people like yourself just join the sheep and blame the servers instead of doing something about it.

Dude, you don't even play this game.

based on not bothering my arse with the league(i'm guessing that's what you are looking at, the lack of achievements in the league)

Myabe get a clue?

Also if you have nothing to say but GGG servers are bad, then just don't if you can't provide actual proof it IS a you problem.

And who are you to tell anyone what to do? I think you're forgetting yourself, buddy.

EU servers are overloaded at peak hours so sometimes people get routed to less crowded servers like Canada (they sleep when we play). Canada is pretty far away so latency gets horrible.

Proof? Check your clients log for instance IP then do an IP lookup.

i'm playing for the last days on frankfurt and amsterdam an never experienced lag (not playing juiced content though).

you need to bring up some proof (https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1377789) that it's the servers causing the lag and at least point ggg to the problematic ip adresses so they can do something against it if it's really the servers.

if you just wanna vent here, that's not really helpful for the issue.

sounds rly funny when y are playing game and y must proofe what devs have problems, not y, and in case of poe xddd (i did mtr tests and sended it to ggg btw, in moments of spikes)

poe is game , when y can play 3.20 and all fine, and y can play 3.22-3.23 or august 6bg patch, y will see no graphic different and y will read in patchnotes " we did good idea to unload cpu and load gpu", and after all of this y see like your mid-high spec pc cannot play stable fps like it was previous patch

in real, ggg see problems with a lot of loot index and servs loads and just waiting death of legue, maaaaybe they will look at this problem in next patch, but no, thay will not, cause they know nearly nothing about poe xd.

and yes BRING UP OF PROOOOOOF BRUH, hatred

it's not about proof, it's about a diagnose to find out the cause.

if it's a internet related problem, 90% of the infrastructure involved in transporting your data belongs to third parties. that's how the internet works.

of course you can blame it on the servers, but ggg won't look at it if you don't point them to a specific server at a certain time so they can find out what went wrong.

i am having the same problem. the servers seem unstable for last week. doubt thats on my end, too many people having the same issues, also other games work just fine.

Apart from the routing, if that was the case, wouldn't EU servers have basically been unplayable especially during the first 8 weeks of the league? Why would that be a thing now when there's barely 20-30k ppl left playing so deep into the league?

The peak you're talking about was likely 5-6 times as high several weeks ago, but now? Nah.

I tried to play today on Frankfurt which started to act up with the usual ping/lag at first and a DC to desktop at the boss fight in Canyon.
Had a traceroute running during my game session and looked up the various IP's, only to find out that my pathing from Copenhagen, Denmark to Frankfurt, Germany was being pathed like this:

Pc
Router
ISP
Amsterdam
Amsterdam
Dallas
Sydney
Frankfurt
Sydney
Frankfurt

No wonder that the lag is so bad!

Anyway, I'm done with POE for now. Not much point in wasting my time on this game and all of the connectivity issues it has.

Question is why GGG would completely brick the routing for EU players like that. Quite obvious that this leads to a massive rollercoaster in connectivity/ping/latency or whatever. Can't be that hard to provide the playerbase with enough servers in their respective regions, can it?

Also, I have a hard time seeing how even this routing can explain how just today I had a 10min stretch of ~9000-10000 latency spikes. US Servers would normally have me play on ~150. Just what the hell is going on?

This is almost comical as I wasn't able to play the game at all for months due to the particle upgrade a while ago, which now I have solved by paying for a premium Geforce Now subscription playing PoE on high-end rigs via cloudgaming service. Every game runs butter smooth with zero delay, except now PoE ofcourse (again). Lmao
