So 163 ms latency is more like 1063 latency...

Respectfully, I think you guys are being dishonest with the latency bar readings for players here on Nostalrius.

All things being equal, it shouldn't take me close to 30 seconds of running on top of another player before auto-attack actually engages. Same thing goes for Hammer of Justice being applied to my target but I still get Polymorphed, Feared, Gouged...

These kind of conditions were what PvP was like on Peenix - Archangel and made any kind of PvP for melee there completely unplayable.

The developers and GMs have been open and communicated honestly about everything up until this point. The ping reported by Nostalrius is the only exception I have noted. At peak time with 7k players online and a ping 4-5 seconds, the game reported ping still shows 150ms. Please stop manipulating this number in order to make the server more appealing to the general population, and be honest with this as you have with all other things.

Thanks!

The ping is correct - it measures the time taken for a packet to travel between your client and the server. The extra delay that happens when the server is under heavy load is just that: server side. Your connection is still the same 150 ms but the server needs an extra hundred milliseconds or two to process the command that you issued.

+ Vanilla server arenot design to gather 7k+ ppl

^What Pottu and Noxm said.

Get used to it. Maybe hope than someday the population thins out to a playable level, until then - quit whining.

making a valid comment on the situation of the server = whining?

making the same comment for the 55th time on the situation of the server = whining

this is the first time I've ever posted anything about latency on the forums bro

[zeequenz]

Yeah, cause I definitely implied you are the ONLY person on this Server. Or the first one to complain about any delay. Get your stuff together and delete this thread. You're wasting traffic.

I guess I missed the memo which stated that you are the guardian of all things Forum Based.

Go FUCK yourself son - you're wasting my time...

I remember something from way back, in their trailer.. Seperated zones and therefore no lag...?

[Talryx]

I know there has been resistance to this idea but I really think a second realm would be a good thing for Nost. 3-4k is perfect; 5-8k is just too many people. Lag, competition for quest mobs and rare spawns, excessive pvp that crosses the fun line and becomes obnoxious, weird effects on the auction house from surges of supply and demand and certain hours when tons of people sign on and off, etc... 3-4k max per realm would be a lot healthier, more fun, and more blizzlike.
