Yeah, it's also hard to tell how much lag is responsible for the seemingly piss-poor damage. But, if his TTK puts him toward the bottom tier, it would make sense that he's just kinda bad.

I think bad is relative here. If you like someone's toolkit/rotation/playstyle, you can make any character work with some investment. Regarding servers, from what they're saying in Discord it's not a lack of server bandwidth but a limitation of the game engine itself.

Its not a limitation of the game engine, the lead dev MonEll or whatever is very clearly an arrogant prick.

I started looking back through the notes and updates on the discord and that guy sucks. Don't think I'll be playing this after all

Yeah, I don't remember any kind of lag like this when the game was live. I also have a hard time buying that it's an "engine limitation".

Yeah, the nostalgia has been great but I'm not interested in sticking around if they can't get the lag under control. But their Discord doesn't seem to have much bitching about it, so maybe it's just a me thing? Everything was fine for me until they launched 1.0. It's weird, because it only seems to be affecting loot and skills/damage - where they just randomly won't register damage numbers at all.

I'd honestly be fine if they cap the server at a lower number to improve the lag. I don't mind waiting in a queue while I do other shit, if it means the game is stable when I actually log in.

Yeah and to make things worse I'm guessing they're probably gonna have to lower the player cap farther to try and mitigate the lag. It's currently at 1100.

Or maybe they're just gonna go hands off until the initial wave of interest dies down cause I doubt there will still be 3-400 deep queues in a week.

Was in a 800 queue when I posted that, got down to 3 a few minutes ago, got booted back to login and an 1130 queue...

Afk how exactly? What am I supposed to do to not be considered afk in the queue???

Don't go more than 14 minutes and 59 seconds without clicking on the screen.

The problem is that the queue is something Tahiti had to cobble together themselves and paste on top of Gaz's spaghetti code monstrosity. 15 minutes is the in-game timer for getting booted for being afk and for whatever reason it's still ticking while you're in the queue.

Thanks. Wish I had know that earlier, lol. Feel bad for people who don't have a second monitor.

It sounds like they are going to open a 2nd server with plans to merge them once the popularity dies down.
