Much lag?

[NotVF]

Yup. Here too. Switching items yields numerous yellow messages. The funny thing is, it's NOT lag.

Lag means your actions as well as the mob's actions just get 'queued' and as soon as the client and server catch up, you'll see you actually did switch to your fap, healed, the mob hit, you healed, etc.

This is a case of:

Item busy
Item busy
Item busy
Mob hits
Item busy
Item busy
Item busy

Which makes me reluctant to blame it on lag. But yeah. Seen it numerous times in numerous locations, switching between numerous various items, so hard to pinpoint any particular cause.

I'll be sure to stick to small mobs and not to hunt anything that absolutely requires fapping in order to survive until this is solved

I've been having these yellow pages all the time for about 1 week now and so has my soc mate. We noticed that we are both using Telia Sonera connection while soc mates with different isp had no lag at all. I sent support case last week with this same conclusion but no answer so far.

Any ideas if its MA problem or Telia problem? I know from experience that whining at Sonera wont help a bit, its all my own fault even tho you all would say the same

Not necessary, if your sent commands lag on they way and mob just keeps hitting because its orders are not lagging a bit, your commands may just disappear as they are put into a wrong place in the line.

I get this problem pretty bad if my daughter fires up her pc and we share the 512k adsl connection. She goes to a lot of kids sites with flash media content. So maybe its not your end if others are experiencing the same problem but checking your own end may always reveal something. When things are running well go to a speed test site and baseline your good speed. Then when things are running shite run the test again and see if your running any slower.

"Hi,
Thank you for your message. Yes, we have hear about certain disturbances in the IP transit and IP connect service at Telia Sonera. However, these problems should be solved since Friday. Are you and your friends still experiencing this problem?
Kind regards,
Entropia Support"


Yes we bloody are.
Should be solved since Friday?
So it was known issue?
Which was it, MA or Telia?
So pissed atm.

Damn, i did notice some change for like 2 hours on friday but then it just started lagging again

Same here
a lot of item busy
mobs start moving in jumps all that sort of stuff

And for sure it is not my side of things.

The only thing we all have in common is the last part of the the internet path to the EU servers and the EU servers itself.

I wish they would take this seriously for once. I do not think they understand how much money they loose from people who stop hunting because the of to much lag.

Time for everyone to make another support case. If we would all make a support cases mayby they start to understand the seriousness.

Some ADSL modems have options to give certain types of network traffic a higher priority and thus restricting things like webpage content to a smaller bandwidth.

I noticed the "lag" on saturday right after i got home after a week away from PE.. so no not fixed since friday..
the extreme delay and spamming of "item is busy bla bla" message really ruins the hunt of fast regenerating mobs like esto etc when u have to fap.. by the time u get the fap to actually heal u the esto will have gone from 50 to 100% health lol

I tried to hunt Cersumons and had a mining claim in the middle of some mature-providers when it started after that 2 hour pause. Well cersumons deal 35-85dmg... 2 failed fapping attempts will kill you (me).
