D2R Lag issues with low player count
I recently started playing again after a long period of being idle, as I had been waiting to get ladder to be released and it was time to earn some tokens to play the latest patch. Right currently there's hardly player playing, and that players are not playing at all in this time of day, and there are only 3 games in lobby, too.
But I'm still experiencing massive delays and do not feel as though I'm in control of my character. It's is just completely rubber bands sometimes, teleporting my character and other mobs that surround me elsewhere in the game.
I was able to accept the connection issues at launch as part of everything happening however I was expecting that they would fix it within the next few days, and there's very little player activity right now Old D2 never had any issues with me since they had servers that were specifically tailored to my region however it appears they have opted to not make the servers this time around and to think that a 20-year-old game and server runs better than a brand new launch is shocking.
It seems that they've taken care that they "smooth" the lag spikes in order to make it appear smooth on the front, but it's all chaos at the back end. That's the reason people experience delays that cause you to be transported around.
The front-end of the game isn't able to cheat any longer and needs to relocate you, and create locally-based servers. What is wrong with you? players have paid for this product, it isn't fortnite.
I'm very happy with all you have to go through in order to bring this game to life and even calmed players in the beginning about these problems and even avoided it myself, however, having these kinds of issues without stress whatsoever on the servers is selfish and self-centered and there's nobody to talk to, and you're left to endure a poor experience because you're not within Europe, the USA and Germany.
I'm not one of the players who usually use private servers, however, I'd like to have the option right in the present, given how terrible your servers are. If you don't wish to sell to the rest of the world, do not sell your products there This behavior is disgusting.
