Unplayable because of big lag spikes
Hi, I imagine there are several posts similar to this one, but I wanted to share my experience in case it helps developers.
I live in Honduras, Central America, south of Mexico. I usually get higher pings in online games than those shown by players in the United States. I almost always play between 80-150 ping, and that's normal for me. I have a normal experience playing online in all games, even in PoE1. But in PoE2, I get tremendous lag spikes of up to 5 seconds sometimes, which make the game unplayable. It's not my PC or internet connection because, as I mentioned, I have a normal experience in other games, even in PoE1 which I assume uses server technology similar to PoE2. I hope this helps.

Dude I'm in central Illinois smack dab in the middle of the US and the lag is terrible monsters teleport around.
It's not just you. It's a real problem and they need to do something about it. Последняя редакция: MasterKnives#1552. Время: 7 мая 2025 г., 21:50:45

Update:
I tried with another ISP and the problem is gone, I don't know what happened between the old ISP and PoE2 servers, but it didn't work. Последняя редакция: baldbolt#0038. Время: 11 июн. 2025 г., 23:37:55

I live in The Netherlands, 1gb internet speed and i also have MAJOR lag spikes.
I think this has to do with a memory leak as well as poor servers, because I have to keep using the /clear command every 10 minutes to make the game playable. so it's not just you, it's everyone. |
