Ever since the age of sorcery update, I’ve experienced extreme rubber-banding on all official servers.
It’s at a point where you can’t even properly play the game. (Enemies standing still for 3 seconds, then teleporting 10 meters, repeat)
I cant include links in my post for some reason, but I do have footage of it.
I have tried the following things to resolve it, but none have worked:
waiting (This has been happening for over 3 weeks now)
switching servers (all 5 servers I’ve tried have this problem, their ping is never higher than 50 though)
using a VPN
restarting my router
reinstalling the entire game
My game is installed on an SSD on a high-end gaming PC. I have a decent internet connection and have never had this issue before the recent update.
This also happens to my friend who lives on the other side of the country, so it’s not something local to me or my area AFAIK.
Any idea what I can do?
Is there a way I can reach out to a support team? The official support page only redirects me to here.
Like I said, this happens on every server I have tried
Which server do you play on? That way I can join and confirm it’s happening to me while it’s fine for others.
I’ve had this intermittently ever since 3.0, relogging (exit to menu and enter again through the godawful server browser) usually fixes it for me, but it sounds like that won’t cut it for you.
The symptoms you are experiencing can be fixed by a server restart. I doubt there’s much you can do other than finding a server that’s closer geographically (lower ping).
I have that on occasion but my problem is high ping on the servers I play on. Have not been able to log in for 4 days due to high ping. I checked again tonight and it is down but still 1 tick higher than allowed.
Have you tried direct connecting? It’ll allow you to connect regardless of ping with the IP and port, which you should be able to search online for if it’s an official server.
Are you sure you are on the right region for you? Like, not playing across Atlantic?
Im afraid this is somehow on your end… But in certain cases it can be down to ISP…
Nah not necessarily. Otherwise, relogging wouldn’t consistently make any difference the way it does for me. I am on a super stable optical connection, PC plugged directly into the router and the game can be completely unplayable (literally, not hyperbole), one relog later and there’s no issue. It’s not on the user’s end just because it doesn’t happen to everybody.
You can find the IP and port there, then choose the direct connect option at the bottom left of the server screen in game and type the game port IP and port in exactly as shown, 172.107.179.249:28200 in the above example.
Half of the American servers have jumped up to around 250 ping for me. The other half is around 40-50ms. Not sure if they switched a bunch of these servers overseas or just on a bad node?
I’m not sure, but I do know it’s happening to my friend, too (regardless of if we’re playing together or not)
And they’re on the other side of the country
