Betrayal Loading Lag

This league, while content is GREAT, there is too much going on in each area, and the syndicate lag in certain areas makes any t14+ map impossible. One shot every time just to load back in already dead. Nice fix, but too late.
Hi, I'm a peasant from the 3rd World and yes, my system is quite old, but anyway please let me put my two cents (not USD cents though, I would never give up those if I had them):

-Installing only Windows and PoE in a new 240GB SSD did almost 0 to this specific problem.

-Launch parameter --noasync did much more, turning the game from unplayable to barely-playable. BUT

->Messing up with CPU threads in Task Monitor solved the problem almost entirely

I'm sorry I can't speak of how Betrayal league performed for me because I don't play leagues, but it is necessary with all those testimonies from fellow players? Same with SSD's and old/new and blah blah.

But seriously, jokes aside I'm happy to see this problem officially addressed. I believe that there is no necessity for being harsh, since it must be already sufficiently hard to keep all working, technically and financially speaking. I'm just trying to collaborate, and as what I tell you above seems relevant (to me, in my vast ignorance), I bring it here.

Those are my 2 pesos cents. Gracias amigos.

Sorry for not being rich and living in a third world country... what a dick.
You could just remove this stupid league from the game... that is an option. Great decision making choosing the option where even more people will be bitching about load times and crashes.

so you are telling me that i pretty much lose an entire league because you guys decide to wait until almost 2 months to give a crap?




It didn't take them to 2 months to give a crap, it took them to 2 months to work out what the problem is. You are underestimating the amount of work that goes into detecting shit like this...



Also HDD in 2019 OMEGALUL


Except everyone and their mother with any computer science experience figured it out the instant it happened. And they aren't any stupider than us. The only question is why wait so long to flag them as essential assets. That is the baffling part.

By the way, I still sometimes get lag on SSD, 16 GB ram, and a good CPU from 2018. The game runs like crap for something that is essentially an HD clone of Diablo 2.

Wew @@ Thank you for working on this problem.

Also just a side note. ive been playing on ps4 since this league is crap for me on pc. But now that i am getting further and into end game content on the console... the playability of the game has just dropped right off... i play a ms jugg and its ridiculous that i can barely do some t4 maps cause of certain shrines // exiles // map mods like inc monster speed etc. make my game lag so bad i die.. lags to the point i can press buttons but it does nothing but glitch frame by frame until i die... can push up down left right r1 l1 all day but while its lagging like that it does fuck all. liek today i lost a full 60% experience at level 87... all cause the prophecy "deadly rivalry 3-4) it gave the exile xanado blooddrinker more speed.. he already had souleater.. and ya What the fuck man... as soon as i get close to the guy my ps4 starts going fdrame by frame cause the dudes so fkn fast i cant get away or heal or anything cause hes just so fkn fast but if it played in real time and let me move or heal for fuck sakes maybe i wouldnt die in a t4 map when im wearing a kaoms and level 87 etc lol...

seems neither console or Pc works worth shit...this game just isnt in a playable state...

oh i tried a breachstone run on ps4 too... what a fucking joke.. cant stand still and attack or it just starts to lag so fkn bad it crashs...

(CE-11xxxxx I forget the number it says) same damn error it gives me 10+ times in a 4-5 hour period of playing...

movement skills on ps4??? lmao another joke in this shit game...use a movement skill okay fine no problem.. use a movement skill with any sttack speed and a faster attacks gem??? LOL rubber band game all fucking day.. might as well of walked with no quicksilver flask on i would of got to where i wanted to go faster.....

ggg game is trash on all platforms.... :( please do something so i can play this game on something thank you.

So... betrayal is here to stay?!? That sucks :(

If you are going to make betrayal stay, keep it out of white tier maps atleast(and zana one-time portals), so players can gear up before they give away free 10% exp every time without any way to avoid this crap. And remove the damn one-shots!

Or disable exp loss from betrayal monsters completely.

Love the game but betrayal is just saying: "Go meta or GTFO".
Finally!
Thanks for this thread GGG, I was getting desperate to see this problem fixed. I personally enjoy Betrayal content and want it to be playable normally.
Haven't had this problem myself, but it does look horrible. Glad it's getting a fix! Less knockout buggs, happier players. Happier players, nicer and more players. More and nicer players, better multiplayer online ARPG.

Also, I love the Syndicate rewards and mechanics so I'm glad it got a fix that keeps it in the game.
Gravity is just a prejudice. A part of Earth's jurisdiction. As an apache helicopter, I find that very oppressive.
