143955-the-weekend-lag

== Content ==
			
I hate to be the one to start this thread but the weekend lag is back on Entity. I realize everyone at Carbine works real hard during the week but for the past two weekends we have had lag over the weekend. Sunday was pretty bad last week and tonight I've been in three zones (Ellevar, Auroria, Whitevale) and the lag makes combat pretty tricky. Several people in zone have mentioned it being bad for them serverwide also. I sent a tweet to @WildstarOps and even though everyone is pretty active during the week it seems like Carbine is hard to get a hold of on the weekends. The last Developer post I noticed was tagged yesterday evening.
 
Is there anyone working on the weekends or overnight Devs we can notify? The weekend is prime game time for most of us who work. Carbine has done a great job of keeping it pretty lag fee during the week as far as I've noticed but there seems be a disconnect in the support on the weekends.
 
Cheers,
Treachery

The lag has never left Jabbit but it was really bad yesterday. It's now at the point where I can't cope with it anymore.
 
What's even more irritating is they decided to have the double prestige weekend before they had the lag sorted. People are now missing out on it because of this mess.
 
This has left me with a bit of a dilemma.
 
I want to make Wildstar my MMO that I play alongside my other games but i'm finding it more frustrating than fun. The problem is if I go off an play other things I won't come back to this. I've got games coming out in the next couple of weeks and I want an MMO sorting out before then. As it stands right now, I can't play Wildstar and enjoy it. I want to give it a chance but i'm easily distracted. 
 
This isn't me threatening to leave, this is me wanting to make Wildstar my MMO but i've had enough of the lag now. I've been patient but my patience isn't infinite, it's pretty much worn out now.
 
I gave them a second chance but they seem to want me to go elsewhere.

The lag is pretty ridiculous. I usually can sit at 50ms on my server since its pretty quiet. However as soon as i enter the battlegrounds i get lag spikes from hell. My connection randomly jumps from 50ms to as high as 800ms. The worst part is these lag spikes are causing my skills to do no damage. Someone can be standing in front of me and i'll unleash a full combo perfectly (according to me screen) on them but 0 damage is done, then i look down and see that i'm at 800ms and realize why i did no damage -.-  
 
I had to finally give up on trying to pvp since it was to irritating to deal with. Not sure if others felt the same way but i noticed that it was always the same ppl inthe bgs (30-49) today so either the pvp community is really tiny at these levels or others have probably given up to z_z

			The lag beast is not really "back" it was always there... it stalks it's prey... deadly and vicious.. it likes to play with you and then strike at your back when you least expect it... Did you prepare your an-us? Huhuhuhuhu~  :ph34r:

			Sadly, I am in the same boat.  All my friends that I came with have left in frustration and gone back to our previous game which is about to launch their new expansion.  I really wanted to have this game as a main and would have been willing to keep a sub even when away, but with the technical problems this game has I just won't.  I love the combat and the world they crafted, but being frustrated by servers and not difficult game mechanics is off putting.

Skill not triggering, hits not registering, Interrupts not registering, loot taking 10 seconds to register and then causing more lag.
 
Game is, in effect, unplayable right now.
 
All The Best

			When will Carbine come out and address our concerns. I just started the game yesterday this is what I have to look forward too is server lag. I started to like this game.

Yep I have lag problems again, more at PVP than on PVE. 
 
I get DC everytime I try to Auction House, PVP map or anything that is not going to my house... and sometimes I get DC here too. It is worse at weekends but sometimes I get that problems during the week too.
 
Hope that big LAG problem could be fixed soon...

			On Entity-2 and experiencing lag spikes where everything just sits in limbo/freezes then 5-10 seconds later everything start going again. It is happening every 5-10 minutes and its a bit of a pain as your interrupts dont seem to register and skills dont fire off.

			Since people seem to have not read much regarding this topic, nothing is fixed until the servers are merged back together. Believe they even stated the expected time was around 2 weeks before they could achieve a real solution to the overall issue.

			Been lagging in BGs all weekend since the double prestige started. It's not consistent but i get these HUGE lag spikes where I think my graphics card is about to blow up.	
----
			It's not as bad in pvp as pve from my experience.

We're lagging for weeks now, obviously there is no way in hell Carbine is competent enough to fix it "soon".
I shudder at the thought but.. i should probably add: "if at all" as well.  :ph34r:

EDIT:
 
Nevermind, looks like one of the techs had finally bothered to post some news regarding our blasted curse - the lag beast.
