Logging in/staying in while zoning with high latency

[Bamzal Sherbet]

Unfortantly, a small portion of the playerbase is stuck playing with a high ping, regardless of their specific scenario which is causing the high ping.

The problem that these players are experiencing is this: They can play the game perfectly fine ... IF they make it into the zone...

The only problem they are having, is actually making it into the game.
Once in, its perfectly fine to play under the high ping.


I said it before and I'll say it again. The server needs to have better QA for players when zoning.

Right now, it seems like 1 dropped packet and the server will de-synch you while zoning. And that is why these players need to take extreme measers just to get INTO the zone. Because once they are in, the high ping is totally playable.

And no, no settings on their home network our router (even upgrading to a wireless N) is going to solve their external network latency issues.
