Massing, Farming, and Raiding are taking alot more time to do, which is costing the players of this game naq. Earlier today I was Acing and went to repair my weapons... After 5 minutes I got to see how hurt my weapons were... Went to my bank and withdrew the naq I needed, and returned.. 3 minutes to do that... Guess what, I need more naq! Cause my strike was still massing after 8 minutes of messing around... Then finally the lag settled down and I repaired my weapons... 808/5760, way to close... I didnt click more than 10xs either... This needs to be fixed!

i agree. I needed several minutes to AC you MFC

It is basically the same as before when massing/raiding, just changed a tad different. Except this time the lag continues to where it looks like they are on nox when they are not due to the amount of attacks that go through.

Not to mention, when attacking people.. naq comes in waves.. weirdly enough.

my current planet names sum it up:

Server lag is beyond a joke xxx xxx monsterous
15mins to farm due to lag xxx xxx monsterous
Why would anyone accept that xxx xxx huge
Seriously why xxx xxx huge

Have you been mass people? I ask that because this lags seems to be happening a lot atm when massing etc.

Have any of you tried using the plain log in form not using page compression?

Compression isn't the problem, it's the response from the game server. I have about 15 pages of alliance/farms to go through each turn, i click 1st one when the turn is just rolling over, 2-3 mins to get it to load up and i can start hitting the quick attack buttons, bank, move to next page, now it loads much faster as the turn change lag is over, but it still takes 15-30s, quick attack buttons as usual to farm, bank, click next victim list, 10-15s to load, hit quick attack buttons, honestly by the time i have done alliance #3 it's pointless checking the rest coz it's 6-7 mins after the turn change by then and they are mostly cleared out, if i do bother then all told i'm looking at 15 mins to farm 15 pages of alliances.

if the server responded instantly like it does in, for example, the german SGW, which is on the SAME provider, i would be able to farm everyone on my list in under 2 mins, tops, even if i was taking note of MS's being up or down for possible massings. so basically the server lag is costing me 13 mins of my life every turn, and for what? so jason can have his pathetic Autobanning scripts etc running which only seem to incorrectly ban people TRYING to mass and add nothing positive to the game at all.

it's a simple text based MMOG, there is no reason at all for the server to delay 2 mins on a new turn, let alone up to 45s just waiting for an alliance list to be provided to my Browser, must be like 200k of info to recieve, at the most, it's way beyond a joke.

Hmm.. I do notice quite a lag when using the quick attack button
Using the plain login helped my lag a lot but mines does still lag. I just get on with it.

I'd just like to point out that a grand total of zero pages, stylesheets or javascript documents are being compressed by the server regardless of how you log in.

This is a problem which is ruining my enjoyment , a simple raid or mass is taking far too long even when hitting ppl who are not on crit/nox.
Each hit can take like 20 seconds to load whether i try IE or Firefox :S , bring back the days we could hit like 20 times in 5 seconds or whatever it was

Also when trying to load the alliance attack page it takes even longer (somtimes 2-3 minutes ):O

Biscuit the lag isn't due to pressing the quick attack buttons, it's the pages ACTUALLY LOADING UP. Obviously there is still lag WHEN attacking, regardless of using quick attack buttons or doing it the old fashioned way. The issue as i have said is the server taking way too long to respond to the requests.

It's not my ISP because the german SGW loads instantly, i could mass the entire german server in less time than it takes me to raid 500k UU's in sgw and it's on the same network as the sgw server, so it's 100% down to sgw server lag, nothing else, not compression, not the ISP jason uses, not my ISP, it's SERVER LAG.

Also the ascended server is running faster than ever before, espically the power up page.
