Just fix the lag

Just fix it, please toss out a bluepost when it’s done. Game mode is S-Tier but it’s unplayable 40% of the time.

It’s essentially unplayable for me at the moment. I’m constantly stuck in that pre-disconnect limbo where you can run around but can’t interact with anything at all.

Normally this would ofc signal the DC, your game ‘freezes’ and you get kicked out, but at the moment the full DC doesn’t happen. I can’t even exit the game via the menu and I have to shut down WoW from the Task Manager.

I would love a confirmation that they’re at least aware of the problem and are looking into it.

From my personal experience the lag is worse in zones where world bosses are, Suramar had 2 days in a row so the zone isn’t playable but the lag also exists in the world especially as it gets later in the day, there’s too many people in the zones and not enough sharding imo.

Yeah, I’m having a lot of trouble in Suramar and exclusively in that particular zone. I imagine it is due to the sheer amount of phasing involved.

I think the lag is there mainly for two reasons.

  1. There are a lot of players and
  2. Everyone receives those loot boxes as quest rewards and we have bags full of those. Now, every time one lootbox is opened, there is at least one request sent to server side and when there are x amount of loot boxes and xx amount of players opening those boxes at the same time, the servers can’t handle the amount of requests in a timely manner.

These two combined means the servers are not responsive and causes different kind of lags. I’ve seen this more than with one loot boxes that it stays grayed out in my backpack after trying to open it (timeout from server, wow client does not know what was inside it) and those stays gray until I relog.

For me Suramar is completely unplayable and I don’t use that word lightly. I counted 8 seconds before looting happened, quests accepted, sometimes the game just becomes unresponsive with no end in sight.

Suramar is a litteral slide show. It takes like 6-8 seconds between any animations when fightin the world boss, and you’re not in control of any abilities. This is spilling over to doing solo content around the zone - if anyone’s fightning the world boss on your shard, you might as well fogtet about playing.

I gueess blizz doesn’t give a shot, cus they already got your monthly payment.

Games unplayable in some zones.

It’s the same over on NA servers.

Nothing from dev bluepost in 3 days? Not even a “we are aware #listening #wehearyou

Might as well just log out… Very disapointing.

Can you guys do something with the ****ing laggy servers finally? Blizzard is a multi million dollar company, not a small indie one, days after the Legion remix the servers still freezeing and its literally unplayable, and I pay monthly sub, but not for this, and no, my internet is not the problem.

micro screen freezes when picking up quests or randomly when killing mobs?

They have staff?

Blizzard is not a multi million dollar company .microsoft is

Any chance we could sort the lag out? I don’t remember the game lagging unbearably during Legion’s original release.

This clown fiesta company calling itself blizzard hires people that dont even play the game … they still havent fixed dawnbugger dungeon since season 1. And im not even talking about hiding night elf ears in hoodie transmogs … at this point they dont even care , the company is just securing the moneyflow until bigger pictures start to get drawn and then sh it will hit the fan to their face…
