When and how is this lagg gonna be dealt with?

It cannot be dealt with. No private server, including this one, can't handle this many players online.
Noticeable lag will always be present when there are more than ~5200 players online.
Only possible solution is to limit online population on 4500-5000 but no one wants that.

It can be dealt with. It's done countless times before.

I hope you played some launches and games with overpopulated servers.
Its done by opening new servers and allowing transfers to re-distribute population between servers.

And we all want laggless gameplay. 5, 3 or 9k ppl - idgaf.

last night was really bad. it was booting players offline while the main server stayed online (maybe authentication servers or something) and it kept taking down the Nost website with it as well.
sounds more like a provider issue then the actual server emulator.
no announcements about it yet though from the staff..

[Odomiah]

whatever it is, at least let us know what it is...

Just got a massive laggspike and dc, 5mins ago (hence why I'm here checking replies)

[Stalk]

they did say it'd be able to handle this sort of population

...And the server originally handled the population adequately in the first few months. Then, they began to apply patches to add new "content" and fix problems. Slowly, the server has been degenerating with every new patch. Maybe, the new server functions aren't equipped for optimization or proper memory handling.

The server has delay and is usually starting around the 6k pop give or take. Hopefully they will fix it one day.

inb4 more "free server, go play elsewhere" trolls come barging in to defend the unplayable conditions.

bump... still no staff response.

I've only lost connection 3 times all week just deal with it dude it's really not a big deal at the very most you lose 10-15 minutes a day from it

Honestly I don't have any delay at all and I never disconnect except when the server crashes, which rarely happens. I do live in Europe though so maybe that changes things? I've noticed I am usually among the first to reconnect after a crash.

In any case I think dividing the community further would be suicidal. All private servers before Nostalrius ended up empty or deserted. Let's not be too cocky. There's already a PvE server which will drain some existing players and also some of the new incoming ones. A BC server will then open like what, a year from now?

Maybe the Nostalrius team ought to upgrade its hosting solution but I suppose that's expensive.

and yea.... no delays and dcs my ass. What just happened few mins ago if not 2 dcs and 2 huge lagg spikes for entire population. We got wiped on last SM cath boss due to that lagg. Logged back and instance is reseted... /cast GG

Stop putting the problems under the carpet and accept the issue. (directed to community)

I was there to make 2 - 3 big posts about how good time i'm having here and gave huge thumbs up to staff team.
I'm no ass licker or QQer, i'm just looking at stuff from customer perspective.

This is not what will keep ppl here, I'd be raging as a madman if this happened on some raid boss and not a damn SM cath final boss. Still... didn't felt good either way.

Staff, what is going on?
I'm afraid to enter a bg lately... delays are making me useless
