Desync back again ?

Just wondering if anybody else is getting a lot of desync again last 2 days. Lab is almost impossible atm, rubber banding backwards and forwards in the traps.

Is it just me or other people suffering as well?

Only the past 2 days? Lucky you.

I've been having it again ever since the audio "upgrade" at the beginning of Prophecy. :(


Has it gotten worse recently? I do not know. I have not played since the weekend.

This ongoing problem is directly related to all users who make use of broken mechanics and " >5.0 Attack Speed".

When this activity is not occurring full steam with 10% of the 5000 players per week, my latency is 14ms no matter what I am doing in PoE.

Then 4pm GMT arrives to remind exactly what that problem is like and when it's starting.

only played to test a few things this league, but it's been bad. Had no problems like that in perandus and I blame assets loading in the background as well.

Was fine back when the title screen took ages to load, that's all I know.

Yeah, actually you're right. It is the asset loading.

The audio thing completely killed it for me and I had to disable reverb or something. Then it was no big deal.


The preloading, though....

I have to use every skill before getting to any monsters just to load them, and even then it stutters the whole way now that mobs are now using new skills too.

After running through an area once then repeating is fine now that it is all loaded.

There is a way to disable it, right? I would recommend trying the command prompt that turns it off.

yes, good point. found these threads if someone wants to know how to do it:

It's a shame there is no way to disable it through options though. Seems to cause problems for quite a few people.

desync never really left. if can really bite you if you use flicker or cyclone, or be really jarring when everyone suddenly teleports a few feet to the left
