LOL lag + server load limit = hilarity but it's serious.


This thread is half light hearted and half gripe

My outfit was messing around on Amerish last night when we decided "ah fudge it" lets go have some fun on Easamir.

So we ported over (took quite a while since the intercontinental transport system is on the fritz) but we eventually managed to get the TR warpgate and that's when the insanity started to ensue.
In all my times playing games I've never seen the warp and graphics bugs act it such huge and hilarious ways.

I saw whole tank columns flying through the air, mossies and galaxys stuck in a never ending ballet of destruction. Sunderers that were flipping end over end up hills.
A liberator spinning like a cyclone
Time kept speeding up and slowing down.
The tank column finally got from under the warp bubble and it looks like they had already gone through the ringer, not one tank wasn't damaged and in some cases almost destroyed.

Once we got away from the warp gate I thought things might settle down, they did until we encountered the enemy and began shooting at each other..... I've seen men empty entire clips at them and hit nothing but air, only to have the server catch them up 5 minutes later and tell them they were dead and float their corpse back, bit eerie when you see dozens of them floating through the air.

I was even run over by a friendly Sunderer and didn't die, kept fighting on and made some kills when I got tapped on the shoulder by the grim reaper and told "you didn't survive the crash" warp back dead.

I ran head long into a scattermax and at point blank range he opened up on me I closed my eyes and awaited the inevitable...... nothing not even a 1hp loss, so while he was reloading and jumping up and down in what i guess was rage, I whipped out my bazooka and sent him to the scrap heap instead but at that range in scatmax even if he missed me he shouldn't have missed me, know what I mean.

After about 20 minutes of this un playable lunacy we ran back to Amerish where the server wasn't as bad.
What valuable lesson were learned? simply,

Don't do drugs.... oh wait that's not it, it's

I know this is only day 2 and I hope you've got a solution in the offing as currently massive areas of this game are just no go. In this state, I was right about the game not being ready for launch, the cracks are spreading.

The funniest thing I saw, was my squads liberator warp around the gate killing any friendly vehicles it passed through. It was pure chaos, especially since my mate on his screen was holding position in hover oblivious to the hilarity!

Jokes aside this needs to be sorted.

It dosent help that every new player that logs in is given the Bull Shit intro and unceremoniously dumped in the middle of esamir like a piece of garbage . The lag last night on Miller Indar and esamir was insane and with players / outfits locked to severs via there station cash purchases im not sure theres a quick fix .
