here you go
As for your traceroute, with a trace like that, I would expect your ping in game to be around ~110 ms average.
Okay, in that case, your in-game ping does seem to be aligned to your route, and it's before it gets to the server. The backbone provider change happened back in December, so it's not something EME changed all that recently. Have you had the 75-89 in the last few weeks, or was this in the months before (when it was still on Zayo)?
I think it was mostly people on Comcast who had the horrible time on Zayo, but it may be that people on AT&T were fine before.
Think I traced to the wrong location (got it from another post yesterday when this [filtered] was happening) is there anything I can do? Used to be stable 230-250ms before they switched last yr, went up to around 300 and has been getting worse ever since. Tried things like WTFast but it doesn't help much, shouldn't have to pay $ just to get my ping from 450->350
trust me its EME idk why you guys dont think this. i never had an issue with lag until now. 4 years i never had an issue.
where ru even at. ping like that doesnt seem like in america or canada
Aus
Not looking for miracles, just want my 250ms back that was more than playable
new servers f you guys up, my friend is from aussie he use to play with 160 ping but ever since they swap servers he only gets like 400 now. you're better off not coming back to tera buddy. or try EU tera
Or try JTera?
Because, looking at the traceroute, it's definitely not the servers in your case. EME cannot control the routes you take, only the provider they're on. They can move to a different provider, but there's no guarantee that will improve your personal route. Upgrading/downgrading the physical servers won't do anything for this problem.
That traceroute is... full of problems along the route. Like, even in your local area, those fluctuations are bad, and it only gets worse along the way. I'm not sure there really is any solution for that.
the problem is no one had issues with their old route once they "upgraded" it honestly downgraded everyone. just so they can save some cash that they say they dont have when they have more then plenty.
Issues had started before it, just you personally weren't impacted by the problems at the time.
Alot of people werent. especially if you talk to the older people of the game, right as it became f2p and before
We aren't at a mobile era 5 years ago, amount of traffic for social media and video streaming was actually much lower back then.
This issue ironically came with the mobile generation, alongside the fact that network cabling by routing providers do wear out over time. This same issue ironically happened with many MMOs and many cloud services (I have experienced lag even on my developing server) in NA over the past year. So yes, it is really something out of game companies' control. It just people don't notice it until the situation blows up like entire routing servers failing.
