Just have to whine away for a few seconds.

I am sooooo f****ng tired of this lag in ToA zones. Constantly between 5-15s delay on styles, healing etc etc. This lag is making me wanna quit. At first I didn´t like ToA at all but got used to it. But I will NOT get used to this lag. FIX THE DAMN SERVERS!!!

GOA can kiss my :kissit:

This might help a little. Alternatly you might want to try (if you havn't already) turned all the graphics settings down to their minimum levels.

Hope that helps in any case.

With the current state of lag that most experience in Trials of Atlantis on Midgard/Prydwen I say we shouldnt have to pay for such a flawed service - I like ToA and want to play there and not in Daoc Classic...I saw we should get several free days because of this.

If they intend to wait for a week or two as they hint on the official site then I dont feel I wanna pay for it while we wait for the upgrade - and if they fix it tomorrow (as likely as Muspelheim becoming a block of ice) I still feel they should compensate their paying customer for a sub-standard service since ToA was released.

must agree, same crap continuing this morning, not even primetime and allready over 5 sec lag whatever you do, forcing to move classic/si areas.
did i pay for expansion and cannot use those fancy areas at all?

So glad I'm not the only one ffs .. been trying everything .. reboot, reinstall, endless ping/download/stability tests on my connection ... everything seemed to point at the fact the problem was on their side ...

But surely a company this big and by now this experienced who have seen the same problems on their US example won't wait till 2 months after release of the expansion to make the hardware fast enough to coop with it...

Surely ... I was wrong ... I hope

Just told my guildies they wont see me in ToA until the server is upgraded , this lag is a joke , not only that ToA bites if you play off hour , but the lag makes it so I cant even join when there is a raid I can actualy attend , because I'm lagging like hell.

Buying 4 copies of ToA = biggest waste of money EVER !!!

GOA team organisation



As you know, we often adapt to the various demands, circumstances and needs of the community and this is why a series of measures has been recently taken to improve the quality of the service we offer. Various objectives have been given new priorities and new lines of work have been drawn (without neglecting others than the ones not mentioned below of course) :
  • Ensure the best possible server stability.
  • Improve the response time for our Customer Support Tool Rightnow.
  • Improve the in-game presence of our teams.



Based on this, we therefore made several changes, some already active for some time now, whose effects will be seen rapidly. In details :
  • We reinforced our relations with Mythic, the American team developing the game. Some of their members recently came to France in our office for the launch of Trials of Atlantis.
  • In order to offer the best game experience possible, we are currently upgrading our server network again. This process had already started before the launch of Trials of Atlantis and (as announced above) will continue.
  • Finally, we are currently doing an internal re-organization in order to optimise the work of our teams as well as the work load. This will give us a better reactivity on the European servers of Dark Age of Camelot, especially regarding player problems reported via our CS tool Rightnow !
The beneficial effects will become more and more apparent in the weeks and months to come. We are on the watch, listening and will adapt regularly depending of your demands.

Improvements - my ass!!!!!

Been trying to get hold of ingame support for 2 days now - failed
Trying to get a mob on ML3 fixed - failed
E&E's do their best trying to get in contact with GM's - failed

Just my 2 cents worth of ToA-Whine!

I'm really really worried about this ... how can they have underestimated this so? It's not like something simular didn't happen in the US... why didn't they do these "magical upgrades that will fix everything" before TOA was launched?

It's not like the game has become a bit slower .. it's not like it's marginal and can be written of as a couple of people making a fuss .. I know of at least 3 people that _stopped_ playing because the game is totally unplayable for them... I myself am on the verge of doing the same .. it's just not worth the frustration... and now I am to read that Excalibur had his upgrade ... and Prydwen is to get the upgrade "in the next few weeks" ...

how the hell can they justify waiting with one server while upgrading the other?.. I play on Excal with hardly any lag ... with almost a 1000 more people connected... we've established the upgrade helps .. now upgrade the lot of them!!

Well, tonight was the last straw for me. unable to take out 1 red mob because of the healing didn´t come. I pressed heal button after first hit. 2200hp later I was dead and no heal had come. The mob did around 150dmg every 2s.

THIS FUCKING SUCKS!

/release
/quit
/cancel

I want my money back. Gonna fucking sue GOA for this.

Ps: Yes I am mad as hell, yes I wajn, yes QQ more yaddi yaddi yaddi
