UO Second Age

This has been a serious problem over the last few weeks and is ruining the gameplay! FIX THIS DERRICK PLEASE

yup.

there are definitely really really bad freezing errors but at least the entire shard freezes. that's something i can pretty much live with because it's not certain death.

when i got to the bottom of the terathan dungeon in t2a i get a resynch error about every minute or two. it's fucking ridiculous and has lead to me dying several time. i'm about ready to give up on this shard because it truly takes the fun out of the game. i play on several other free shards and they are NOTHING like this place. i hope these isssues are resolved soon because i'm about ready to give up on this place.

I never de-sink, I can think of one time in the last month or so that I desynced, and it was in an event. I don't think I've ever desynced in the field actually, and the freezing a little bit of an issue, but not much, havnt died to it recently.

Come on now. All caps? Derrick is a better man than I am. I would auto delete all caps threads.

This is happening to me too... it does look like the entire shard is lagging, because I haven't died from it yet, and it appears everything else is pausing when I do as well.

I died 4 times on a tmap twice in a row last night, down to freeze/lag. This reminds me of when we blew up the last server .

the lag isn't the worst thing in the world because it's server wide.

i've talked to several people in game and they're saying that they are desynching too. it's not happening when i'm casting and trying to run either. running into this dungeon i had roughly 8 or 9 desynch errors and i finally died from a terathan avenger. when i ran back about 5 minutes later to loot my body everything ran smooth.... not one desynch. it seems like they are coming in spikes.

little dramatic?

letting derrick know about the problem is fine, the more ppl that post, the quicker he realizes that its a widespread problem.

It's thanksgiving and derrick's one human. if he takes a bit longer to fix it, just calm down.

well. i didn't say i was immediately quitting. i may end up taking a break for a while and playing somewhere else though. and no, it's not because the problem wasn't fixxed immediately. of course i know it's thanksgiving weekend and i'm not demanding that this problem be solved TODAY. it's just that there are other places that don't have these issues and they make for a much better environment. that's all i'm saying. in the future i'd love to see these issues resolved because a lot of other servers have a lot worse problems and i truly enjoy playing on this one.

Whisper it....CUB .

It's anticipation of CUB that is causing the item count explosion. There will be no CUB people, please.

i really liked the response from staff on this one. sounds like they're aware of the problem and honestly intend to fix it. would a new server fix the desynch along with the spikes or just the spikes? i'm kinda stoked that tonight i didn't run into a single desynch error. i don't understand why they pop up....but when they do it's pretty bad. oh well at least they're working on it.

if they're looking for donations.....i'm sure it's going to be pretty hard.

most other free servers have cool items you can get for donating.....but this one doesn't????
