World Server Lag And Optional Server Ideas

Hello, Im Kuzmik and today I would like to explain a certain of a problem and how I think this could be fixed. Recently because the corona-virus has been striking down on most of the population and Wynncraft has been my solution to my boredom.

The lag recently on the Wynncraft servers have been a problem, im sure everyone has experienced this is some way possible, its almost unplayable and it makes the server unappealing to new players that are joining.

A way to fix or resolve this issue would be to add OCE servers since EU players and US players have the main servers and also because OCE servers are between the two current ones I feel like it would be a good fix to this issue.

Sorry for being a nonsense but please fix this issue.

Wynncraft is getting increasingly more lag. I have a few ideas how to resolve this issue.

-Make dedicated P2W servers for less lag

-Have an OCE Proxy

- Limit the players due to a rank, lowest meaning harder to get in and highest being instant, but players with ranks can join in but takes longer.

Reply back on this thread if this sounds like a good idea to you, If not please leave your opinion in the comments



Make Wynncraft Great Again

 

this is good post i approve

 

oi fix the lag c*** I cant escape the corona virus (aka the rot) and I need wynncraft to survive this horrible atrocity , AND I cant play cuz its laaaaaaaaag

 

salted said the lag is the #1 thing concerning him right now and the admins are actively trying to fix it. OCE servers would not solve the lag issues for US or EU players, since it's wynncrafts host itself that's causing the lag. I'm sure everyone wants the lag gone but the solutions you provided wouldn't really fix anything and could in some cases just hurt the server with no benefits (other than maybe extra money for a host.)

 

I also agree; the server situation right now is not very good. I can manage to have decent gameplay, but I know people that normally cannot.

 

EVERYONE LOVES EXTRA MONEY C***

 

It would have an effect since it would make the servers less crowded plus it would be a third option for both servers since it would have similar ping to the other two depending on where u are from.

 

the lag is caused by the host itself, I'm not sure if servers being less crowded would change anything but then again I'm not fully informed on the whole lag issue and neither are most others. the cause for the lag is stated here https://forums.wynncraft.com/threads/the-cause-of-the-mass-lag-said-by-salted-himself.264275/. EU servers did not fix the network lag so I severely doubt OCE servers would as well.

 

This would most propably break EULA. You cant have anything except cosmetics and some minor things for real money.

 

pretty sure these would violate minecrafts eula

 

"- Limit the players due to a rank, lowest meaning harder to get in and highest being instant, but players with ranks can join in but takes longer."

"-Make dedicated P2W servers for less lag"

These are terrible ideas and probably go against EULA, also the poll is extremely bias and not at all an indication of how many people liked your ideas

Only server I can think of which does this is 2b2t

 

Hi there,

Yesterday, our EU region got a hardware update. I have been able to connect and get reasonable ping from NA on an EU world during peak hour.
NA region is still on the old host and is still in the process of a hardware upgrade. No date on when NA will be fully upgraded. All lobbies and all war servers are in the NA region which is why there still may be noticeable lag in the lobbies/wars.

The goal is not to make our servers "pay to play". We want to be "free to play". We've been having trouble with our hardware in the past and as of late with the COVID-19 virus (unpredictable for that matter), our hardware is extremely and noticeably stressed. Ideally with an hardware upgrade, most of the lag will go away.

With any game/server you connect to, lag will always be a thing. Something is never lag free.

 

Thanks for the explanation @colin350
