random crashing while zoning, higher ms, blank server select!?! - Page 23

I've been having really high ping and DC issues when a I zone constantly as of late. I ran a bandwidth speed test and had 15ms and a DL speed of 60mbps. So it doesn't seem to be a connection issue on my end. I don't have this problem playing other games. So, not sure what's going on.

Has nobody found any fixes for this?

This just recently started happening to me at an incredible rate. I will not see the server list probably 80% of the time, and when I log in, it will hang at "Logging in to the server. Please wait...", and will crash probably 95% of the time when I try to load up my character.

This has made loading into the server an incredible ordeal, as after every crash, I need to wait the 1-2 minutes for my character to be DCed out of the game after the client crash. It takes me a solid hour and a half at times just to go from logging in to actually loading in.

Need fix please. Anyone got any suggestions? I've tried a million different things to fix this issue.

For me, this has only been an issue for the past few weeks. What's the deal? Does the server need a reboot? More donations? I'll gladly pony up some cash if it helps get this crap fixed.

It happen randomly to me, some days it's like 7 times sometimes 1 or 2. I also experiencing crash at character select & just after I enter in the world (screen freeze and eq error)

I, too, suffer from the same ailments.

Upgraded my phone to Android Lollipop and now having these exact same issues, so I'd wager its not an ISP problem if my tethered connection to super cellular internet is having the same problem.

100 attempts logging in, 1 of those actually got to the character select screen but crashed upon loading.

GG take care buh bye

I doubt that. I've had it off-and-on since long before I started using Duxa. Network issues exacerbate it, including local shit like wife and kids killing my bandwidth by streaming video on the wifi (my connection is wired but all go thru the same router), but I've had the client crash or lock up even when nobody else is competing for bandwidth locally.

All of the following occur at random intervals (zoning includes entering game from char selection and camping to char selection from ingame):

client crashes zoning
client disconnects zoning and dumps me at the login/password screen
client disconnects zoning, then reconnects after some arbitrary delay (i.e. I finally zone after 1 to 5 minutes but I'm out of group and groupmates were notified that I had gone linkdead)
client hangs just before it loads zone files (i.e. no progress bar)
client hangs when it attempts to load in (i.e. after progress bar full, other people will see my char with no level info and unknown zone on a who all).

BTW, as far as I can tell the client/server hang states never time out. I walked away in disgust once when my client locked up entering game from the char select screen. When I came back about three hours later and killed client with TaskManager I had to wait out a minute's worth of 1018 errors before the server would let me log back in.

If server population is high (> 1000) these failures are more common, but it doesn't seem to matter what the zone population is. That is, I seem to be no more likely to have a problem entering EC than any other zone. Worst case is server pop > 1000 plus heavy demands on my wifi/lan by other family members, I've had play sesions where I crashed, disconnected, or hung, roughly half the times I zoned, just getting ingame from the login screen can take 6+ attempts.
