I’m getting frequent warnings on my EXP bar that my ping is above 300ms, and i even had it skyrocket to 1500ms once. Are there any plans for a EU server / shard? my ping to those are usually <10ms.
Keep up the good work, devs
(please dont make me create a new character though, or let me transfer mine)

I guess 77 isnt that bad, although in-game i feel like i spike up a lot! also im kinda spoiled since i usually play on <10ms in my other games
Is “connectws” something i could put into the steam arguments? Im not using that at this time. what does it do? EDIT: after using the search function it’s to put it on TCP instead of UDP. i think ill keep it on UDP, but i might try the TCP one sometime
My desktop PC does not have any WiFi whatsoever. I’m on fibre 1000mbit up/down.
Interesting okay. Just curious if it might be either of those things.
If you are getting lag spikes like that my guess is that it is something in the connection between us and you. I have some long-term ideas on how to better route traffic from Europe to our servers, as I would prefer not to split up the community if possible…
At any rate, you might just leave that ping running in the background the next time you are playing and see if you see the same ping spikes on there as you do in-game, that might tell us more about what it is.
