Tired of this shit.

Im gonna post here since im not getting any damn answer after days posting in support.

Looks like when the server gets +6k population , insane lags come to players. I don't know about you, but me and some people are getting incredible lags when log into the world.

This is really unplayable, i truly know is not about my conection, because i have two opened wow clients, one with Nostalrius, and another with random server (Doesnt really matter which one).

The funnier thing is that Nostalrius shows 70ms pin, but i have such a mad delay.

In any case, im telling you, if you cannot handle that amount of population, make a filter and queues on the server.

Meavy some people don't get lags (a part of them liar fanboys). But there are people who cannot play decently because of this problem.

Cheers.

lol it rarely ever lags

I logged on for a bit a few hours ago and got 2-3 second delays, huge lag spikes, and constant disconnects.

Maybe you should RTFF?

PERFORMANCE AND LAGS:
During this week, we applied a second bunch of fixes to reduce the lag / delay, after the dynamic lag reduction system last week.
We also implemented an index to know how our players feel the lag. The lower it is, the less our players feel the lag. It was around 500 at the beginning of the week, and it has been lowered thanks to the different fixes to less than 400 (ie 20% lag reduction, for a similar number of online players). Note that this index also counts client connection lags, not related to the server.

How does it work ?
Several strategies have been implemented.
First, we assigned different priorities to the different tasks the server has to do:
Spells and movement server: top priority
Chat server: medium priority
Creatures/pets AI: medium priority
Items/AH server: low priority
Characters loading and mail server: lowest priority
It means that you may experience a delay when sending mails, looting items, ... But it is only to allow a real-time handling of the spells, our top priority. So do not rely on the chat to test if the server lags for example

Our second strategy is to define a priority between the players. Someone being in combat, casting spells, or in a dungeon / battleground will have a higher priority than a player that is AFK in a capital, playing with the AH, or simply chatting.

We continue monitoring the server performance and are still exploring new ways to make the game experience the most enjoyable as possible.

Any discussion should begin from these points, rather than blindly complaining (although I'm sure it's easier.)

The lag is really bad when it reaches 6k+ players. You can tell the server(s) are really starting to bottleneck around that many players.

See above. Stop bitching.

Are u retarded? first, i gotta say i didn't insult to anyone of you, so some respect retarded kid.

And to answer you, i don't care at all what did they implemented, the server is going awful since a few days ago...

Cap server now, everything solved. , nostalrius is losing quality due to extreme population

[duds]

The population isn't ruining quality, it has started to decline for a start and I have no connection issues or lag 90% of the time..
