Age of Conan

ever since the last patch the lag spikes have been god damned impossible!  every ten seconds just about you go to full red latency and cant move a muscle while you get stomped to death if your in a fight.

so i go to the aoc official forum to see whats up and the moderator has all these excuses how its not the server its our computers that are fucked up.  ive come to terms with how fucked up the game is and just want to enjoy it for what it does have to offer but now the lag makes it impossible to even do that.  ANGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

give it time see if they sort it out if its happen after a new patch the may need to come up with a fix

good luck with the game and hope you keep having fun

I had these issues as well, its bloody infuriating! I feel your pain man.  And then to be told its you! Trace route the server, youll see its them.

EDIT: Try this one you can export the graphs straight into a post. http://visualroute.visualware.com

Good luck man.

Yep I reactivated yesterday after quitting 2months ago because I was really bored to death only to find out to my horror that the latency spikes are getting worse! I never thought it was possible and yet there they are, every few seconds it shoots up and down again like some sterio equalizer.

Game is in fact STILL unplayable for many people months after launch!

I can't believe how I used to defend such an incompetent company. FC doesn't deserve any success. In fact they deserve to crash and burn, though of course I would never wish that to anyone.

I never know where to side on these issues, if I were still subbed I could log in to see for myself. However, that is not the case. So I digress, and will agree who ever handled you in such a manner was wrong and deserves the boot IMO. Especially after what has transpired over the last few months.

I'm willing to be it's a crappy carrier on their part, the internet is a messy buisness over in europe.

Reminds me of an Anarchy Online parallel. FC banned a large Org (Guild) for it's massive exploiting over many months. The day after this group got the boot, all the login servers were down for more than 2 days, (they were hammered by a DNoS attack ).

FunCom's explanation "Wasn't us, the internet was Broken" ... i sh!t you not.

You get as deserved for returning to AoC. Even if FC told it was their problem, they would have most likely ignored the problem forever while blowing smoke in your face. Thats how many people feel that I have spoke to, including me.

Guess the players of Anarchy Online all have shitty comps screwing up the network at the same time as Age of Conan, huh?

It is savvis.net, the ISP for Funcom, that is causing the lag, disconnects, and other connectivity issues.

They are a shitty ISP and Funcom has been asked REPEATEDLY over the last 7 YEARS of AO to dump them, but they refuse and continue to lay blame on the customers.

Glad to see Zorvan still lurks here.

They haven't fixed it in 4 months, not even will be honest with their customers about the issue, in fact refuse to acknowledge it's a problem with thousands of posts providing evidence.   What makes you think they will start now?

OP - save yourself aggravation, time, and money and move onto another game.    Don't support a company like Funcom who treat their customers in such a way.
