Anyone else noting severe lag problems?

edited October 2015 in Tech Support
Seems to come and go. I seem to be getting spikes that stop me in my tracks.

My ISP has been contacted, although I don't suspect it's them as I am getting 50 down and 5 up to chicago and a google constant ping drops nothing even while I am lagging out.

I also know this isn't happening to everyone but I have seen a scattered few complaining about it. Anyone else having issues?

a ping of achaea.com -t keeps registering losses as well. So perhaps getting DDoS? Perhaps something in my backbone, who knows.

    I've been having crap lag issues in general since Windows 10 installed itself, so it's hard for me to judge. I've noticed the lag on Achaea is pretty severe around peak times. A few hours after the Serenade is generally when it feels like I'm trying to play with molasses.
    (D.M.A.): Cooper says, "Kyrra is either the most innocent person in the world, or the girl who uses the most innuendo seemingly unintentionally but really on purpose."

  • I too have experienced heavy, heavy lag over the past couple of days. I'm using Windows 7 in combination with Mushclient; made no major changes recently. I've also tried connecting with Mudlet, but that was even worse.

    I've also tried to ping achaea.com:

    Any help would be very much appreciated

    I have been having terrible lag for the past month or two.  I hardly ever dc, but I get a lot of hands off moments that last 30 seconds or more.. 
  • same here. 
  • Same here. But I don't think I qualify since my average ping is like 0.333

    This is typical for the current time. At peak traffic I have a latency of about 0.8-1.0. Server side curing/sipper does wonders at permitting to me play without dying every hour.

  • As of this morning my problems seem to be cleared up.
  • Forums seem incredibly slow today. I'm at work so not sure if it will be better at home, or what connecting to the game itself will be like.
  • Yesterday and the day before, yes... today (the 26th..) it seems fine.
