Closed Alpha Feedback Thread: April 20th

Sorry to hear that Richard. I noticed in the download thread you were mentioning you had a slow download speed to that server…what’s your Internet connection like? As in what is the speed, what type is it (DSL, etc.) and where in the world are you located?

It was not slow on my phone itself, I use a 4g connection, which is about 12-20 mb/sec. It is usb tethered. I am in the UK.

going to head back in and have another go.

Stuck on this now, it just wont load in. https://gyazo.com/e455cee957ace7149e5763f5d5fa4b90

must have been a slow server, its in now.

Oh I see, yeah my main concern with that would be the latency/packet loss from a phone connection. See this thread where I discuss that: Slow Internet Speeds

But basically if you’re getting a lot of packet loss you might see what you’re experiencing where the game will “stutter” a lot and show the SteamVR overlay/trackers.

Seeing an issue where I can’t see my shield’s HP as a warrior, but it I still blocking for me.

Also, the deployed shield of the warrior doesn’t seem to be blocking anything,

Perhaps its that… though Ive not had any problems at all with other games using this connection. This is the first time. It works intermittently, but when I reach somewhere with lots of people or trying to battle a creature it lags out and I die.

The house internet is alot worse its 4mb!!

A stable 4mb might actually be better, give it a try.

We actually only need a very small connection (around 1mb/s) bandwidth-wise, so you might try that connection and see if it’s any better. If that doesn’t help let me know.

Were you trying to block an AOE attack? That’s all the planted shield is suppose to block but could be a bug if that is what you were trying to block.

I believe this was the answer, I haven’t been able to replicate it again by just running around the zone. Ignore the second half of this, saw the answer in another thread.

My phone internet is actually more stable than the house, which is why I choose it over it. It seems to be working a little smoother now, I will try the house connection and see how that goes just to be certain

even worse with the house internet its unplayable

Okay, well, go ahead and play with your phone for now then and in the future I’ll see if I can get some sort of test page up or something where you can get an assessment of your latency and speed to our server so you’ll know if it’s going to work in general. Obviously it’s always going to be challenging playing a fast-paced game like this halfway around the world from the server but hopefully we can figure something out.

I did not crash out and was able to kill a few with archer… but back to warrior its seeming to be difficult.

Hmmm…I wouldn’t think it would matter what class you play if it’s an Internet issue. What are your hardware specs (CPU/graphics card?)

I take that back, it wouldnt log in at all this time. Crashed on the same screen as the gyazo I sent to you. I have an i7 6700, and a gtx 970
