The past two or three weeks, there have been lag spikes from time to time. Our guild even wiped on Lich King because of it. It's a major problem and what I'm surprised is that there hasn't been any annoucement about it.
Any info? Causes? I guess it's being worked on?
Thank you.
" Focus on stability continues, we are now consistently seeing 7 day uptimes across all our services. We are restarting the realms once a week for maintainance and updates." from last devlog
uptime>stability fam
Thanks for the info Thorbjorn but I had already read it. It's not what I am referring to; you can have 1year uptime with bad stability. We've been having lag spikes for the past weeks and nothing has been said by the staff. At least if we knew they're working on that.
I was being sarcastic T_TQuote:

Uptime is a direct result of stability. Low stability means the server crashing often, therefore having low uptimes.
At least understand the terms you're using before trying to be sarcastic.
We applied a fix yesterday on both Lordaeron and Icecrown which should fix the lagspikes which occured every so often. Please let me know if there is still any issues
Thank you! We haven't noticed any more lag spikes - everything seems normal again.Quote:

Well we're experiencing the same lag spikes again. In ICC
Facing the same, along with several other people I know on the server. Most of the people facing this issue appear to be from Asian countries.Quote:

There isn't any network issue on my end, as I can still consistently run any other game, website, or service without any issues. (sub 50 ping on any Asian servers, able to run 5-6 1080p video streams at once, etc)
The spikes also appear to become far worse the more players and activity present (eg 25 man raids, but the lags are present even in 5 mans and a lot of my actions end up getting queued)
Hope this helps in some way for the mods/devs to find the issue.
Same lag spikes, today in BG. Multiple people on global agreed that it was lagspike
Update: Much smoother now, even smoother than it was before the changes. GJ devs, hope it stays this way. Thanks! :)
While lag has gone down a bit, myself and others have been noticing for the past week that our macros will randomly stop working at random times. While it doesn't bother me as much when dps'ing it's bloody frustrating on my healers when mouseover and focus target macros outright stop working in the middle of a fight. Requiring a /reload to fix it after we either wipe or manage to clear the fight via casting directly from the spell book
The lags are back. I guess it's a matter of uptime before the lags happen again. Hope things revert soon.Quote:
