So yo, recently this game has been 3-4x pingier than usual.(may be the infectuous droid)
so the absolute best question ever...

Can we get our fnord back for lets say..... april-june players? :o

Then we could be less pingish and all happy and fun stuff...

No, unless we consistently have enough concurrent users to justify it, which we don't currently.

As long as I have a invitation we can keep this a secret LoL...
And it might not be the server doing that I think there's something wrong with the world wide Internet...

I've noticed a lot more lag in the past few days as well. Some instances up to 5 to 10 seconds lag.

Are you saying I'm not concurrent? As soon as I look up that word you're toast!:confused::mad:

I actually don't want the PC version to come out....

Omg the game will get spammed like crazy... And it's free to make a account so we are doomed...

heeey, why the droid bashing? :-(
(i´m european, so i´m really using a milestone, but... yeah ^^)

sure, its like a huge load of extra players... but it doesn´t matter if those were iDevice players or Android users, at all. should be glad for STS that the game is such a huge success! ;)

also... i´m also having mixed feelings for the PC version... on the one hand, it would be awesome not having to play on my phone when i´m at home (damn thing gets hot after a while and my hands start to go numb!), but then again... i´ll be spending even MORE time on my computer... at least on my phone i have to stop after like 2 hours maximum to recharge or because my eyes and hands hurt ^^

not too worried about the gold farming thing, to be honest... there will be a few, but without a way to converse gold or plat back into real money properly, i don´t see the market for it.

Futumsh,

I think what we are trying to say is that since the addition of PL for droid, we are all experiencing significant additional lag, ping, delay, whatever you want to call it. Is this something you can look into?

Please let us know,

Thanks,

Kraz

Well, I think it's safe to say that if you're getting additional lag, it isn't because of the server performance, so adding an additional cluster won't help. Personally I'm not seeing any worse latency than normal since the android launch.

Ummm.... you live like... RIGHT NEXT TO THE SERVER.

And im positive it isnt my router. All other games i play are Extremerly low ping... except PL, which used to be 80-130 ping, and is now 600-1000 ping.

My ping has been the same on my iPod as it is on my Droid since the Android Beta. I am consistently between 65 and 85 ping and sometimes it will spike to around 230. For the PC launch I am hoping they make it so you must purchase the PC enabler in game or through their site for real money. It takes the pocket out of Pocket Legends to allow new free accounts to be made and played from the PC only. I will support whatever they do, but until they announce their plans this will be my stance.

Is the discussion here about the high ping rates a result of the actual Droid devices? or a growing number of users? One and the same or different?

I have a Droid- TMobile G2 Froyo 2.2 and my ping is consistently 80-120

Just wondering? :)

Okay, thanks for addressing it, must be something else.

Pc will ruin the game. They will have an unfair advantage plus all the crap that comes with them

Hi Futumush, I would like to testify that I have had router problems with PL in the past. However, I can assure you, the lag that has occurred in the recent days is worse than anything I have ever seen. My ping floats around 540 even though I live in Texas, and on an iPod touch I am unable to play without being disconnected midway through the game. I strongly advise that you would look into the technicalities, and perhaps run a diagnostics test on the server box. A second server would be nice, but I am more worried that people will stop playing due to the lag. Previously, this was the one and only iPhone/iPad MMO that stood above others, but now, it feels like a turn based strategy game with the lag. Maybe it is just me, but please consider.

My ping is never higher than 200, unless I'm on 3G and in a dead zone. But I have Verizon so that hardly ever happens :p Btw, it's not Droid players, so enough of that lol

I'm on iPhone, and my ping has always been 200+. lately hanging around 500 and you can't play the game well that way. Almost like leeching.
