Goddamn, how many of you lag as much as I do. I don't stop lagging until I get to my grinding place, then wait for 5 minutes for my computer to catch up.
It's so gay, and when I'm finally out of lag, the game likes to lag again when a giant comes, and then I try to run away, and I come out of lag for just enough time to cast fear on it, but it kills me anyways because the game is gay.

Here is some stupid crap that's happened because of my lag:



I couldn't move.



My computer kept having a seizure between this screen and the other.

If this continues to keep up, I'm gonna quit this game, seriously. It is so, so, so, so bad.

iv had alot of 5-20 secs freeze ups and game crashes wen using return scrolls/ferry


im not complaining tho.. i already seen it coming

It's not a 5-20 second freeze up, it's more like a 3-10 minute freeze up, with a 1 second interval until the next lag wave.

And I mean that literally.

It really is horrible.

I know what u mean. Its pissing me off too. I cant even have a conversation with my friends because when i type a message the message doesnt come up on the log until 10 seconds later due to lag. And is it me or do i lag a hell of alot more in Europe than in China?

i lag all the time

most common lag for me is when grinding, everything stops except the monster that is attacking me (that is extreme bs) when my lag stops i die.

guess it was really expected...and it is not my computer nor my connection, there are times the game runs smoothly but oftentimes...lag...

Rainigul... I have the EXACT same problem! It sometimes takes like 7-10mins for my game to even start working again! I think, since euro only just came out, maybe there are 'lag bugs' that make our clients lag so much.. Im getting sooo annoyed, I usually have to reset my pc because the game freezes and it stops my pc from working :\

had a horrible lag today me and some other euro friends went to donwhang and went to the hyogens monsters*stone monsters* and ks botters

it was so much fun but i lagged like crazy and computer froze

what annoys me the most is how i lagg badly when the servers are easy/populated yet whenever I log in when crowded I'm lagg free until the servers hit the 12:00 pm part then all servers go populated to me and lagg floods in.

Yep same here too..

Some other computers run the game fine though i still cant figure out whats the problem with the ones that cant

Turn your graphics down, i can see you have shadows, which lags the game, and far view, which lags it even more. Also, the last feature lags it horribly. Try turning those WAY down.

I got lag but its a different lag, I think its network lag..
Because my game is "smooth", but I went to attack a mob then suddenly nothing moves, and a few secs later time like fastfowards to catch up, really annoying cuz things are still happening in the background but I'm just standing there on my screen not doing a thing

I've no lags at all ;\

What about people who turns everything in the graphics section to off..and whats not turned off is set at 1 lol...

And it still lags badly...at least lags more than before the update..

I have the same issues (lags, disconnects, crashes). Seeing from this thread, that this is not only an issue on Odin, I might end up quiting the game or go back to cSRO if the situation doesn't get better in the near future.

I play on a stock dell, 5 years old.
I play on wireless internet.
I fell the pain.

Got 4 ???? errors in two hours yesterday
The lag really is horrible.

I don't really think it's the hardware if the game ran okay for you before. Sure you will have to pay tribute to the new textures for the euro chars in town as soon as they mix with the chinese. To draw some comparisons to cSRO, which has overall pretty much the same content:

- You have the same long loading time when starting the game. I had iSRO and cSRO installed parallel and before the update iSRO did load considerably faster.

But still I was doing good in both games on a 2 year old Thinkpad with not too much memory. No crashes when teleporting, no lags for 8 seconds straight, playing for another 20 seconds before the next 8 seconds of lag kick in.
