We have been ordering more servers

any eta to a playable game?

Woo Woo! Now rez the HC guys that ripped to server lag!

2 weeks after league start... good old greedy way like d3(waiting for player base to decrease before ordering servs). btw the game is still not playable.

But but but...... certain GGG lovers swear there is nothing you can do and is not a problem with the game. How can this be?

Minnesota servers or riot!

Thanks, Chris & GGG. Appreciate the updates here on the forums (instead of just Reddit). :-)

Yeah, I've noticed the lag. For example, just opening up a stash tab after login can be painfully slow.

Not quite...some are pointing out that the "server" problems are not just the server, and people are still moaning since they have added more servers, point it the problem is more likely to be on the players end (or their ISP) than the server and they are using this as an excuse to their bitching

Chris and company knew that server performance was suffering months ago. Listen on the Path of Exile Atlas: The Lioneye's Watch Podcast #06 - Feat. Lead Developer Chris Wilson back on September 18th at the 57:45 time mark to here Hege's question and Chris talk about player performance (the speed meta) causing a 60% increased server side load per player than just a year ago. This was way before Breach League and if you look at the PoE Steam player stats there are thousands more playing PoE daily today than in Essence League so GGG clearly saw that server performance wasn't cutting it and the huge lag of breaches is what finally made GGG move to add more realm servers to spread the processing load and reduce lag. No one can just blame our gaming rigs for not having enough cpu/gpu horsepower or that our Internet connection is too slow. The server cpu's are just being overloaded with too many game sessions per core.

Performance is very dependent on where you live. If you live near a hub, you're set. If you have to connect using two empty halves of coconuts, your going to have trouble.
