IT took me 1 hour to log out of my account. It took me 1 hour to log back into my account. Both times, I was warped out of my Guild Spar (meant to be conducive for gs points in gst). Honestly, this is bullmonkey. Someone do something about this. Fp4, i'm talking to you lol.  

lol sike i actually ddosed you  

These things are honestly bound to happen because for some weird reason, Classic's game devs literally don't seem to comprehend how absolutely laggy the game is.

4 thousand players on a small map every day (Don't get me wrong it is fairly big but not big enough for 4 thousand players). You'd think they would've put servers up at around 2.5k thousand players. or done something.Classic does need to do something about the server issue. I'm honestly surprised classic has been this neglectful on such a serious issue this long when it has gotten this bad.  

That’s because you could say it’s an un-fixable issue. Unless if you’re talking about the issues with lag and not the delay. No matter what server they use, other ppl that are not from the USa will still get delay. It’s a part of the game
Unless if they create separate servers but this will just breakdown the community and separate it. I would suggest that if the game was big but we only have 3-4k players online  

Yeah FP4, upgrade your PC.

You can still get delay even if you're in America. It isn't a matter of server entirely, especially if you live in a dead zone of connectivity like me where it takes your ISP longer to deliver data. Or having a bad ISP, try playing graal on Kricket mobile. You'll probably get a ping of 700 from that kinda crap. Also 3-4k players is actually a lot. Especially since from what I'm told it cycles of people for day and night.which isn't ideal for such a small map like classics  

Does the iClassic staff not see this ruining their servers? For years people have complained and still, they haven't done anything.  

Is amused you losers think server staff have any control over the server quality

So odd that you’re the ONLY American who always delays more than pinoys and got 700 ping lol.

How is 3-4k players a lot? With one server the spar room rarely has more than 10ppl

No, I'm not the only one lmao, my friend gold delays more than me, He is american, Fein also does. And I know like 3 other people who also do. Either equal or as much as I do. and they are all American. Only reason I'm probably known for it is because I'm the only one who spars. And my ping is always around 250, Not 700 lol. There is also probably more i never met yet.

For classics map size, 3-4k is a fairly large amount. It can literally take you 1-2 minutes to walk from the bandit camp all the way to Destiny. And you're telling me passing 3-4 thousand players in those 1-2 minutes is not hinting that there is more players then there should be. Almost every MMORPG, Infact every single one of which i ever played. It wasn't as crowded and compact. Which is why i said classics map isn't really big enough to support playerbase. It is a big map don't get me wrong, But not for 3-4k people. If anything it's more of half that so you'd experience less lag and so on  

I don’t understand how the map is related to our topic? Or to my comment on having 4-3k players online. “Creating different servers will separate the community into small groups especially when there is only 3-4k players”. The whole point of ppl suggesting multiple servers is for the competitive aspects of the game mainly pk and spar. Towers and spar rooms are already dead with 3-4k players online, now imagine them those rooms for only a specific server

They should keep all competitive things into a cross server. So all servers enter the area. I don't see why you would do otherwise. the map matters because classic is all 1 server. And in that server everyone is in that map. So In the server it has to process everything going on that map. Which is why having multiple servers to divide it all so each server can process it's own people. It makes the game less laggy  

OR, instead of 15 different classic servers, which over complicates things, they could just upgrade the servers as OP suggested??  

This topic has been discussed a lot. Some things to consider from a previous thread:

It's a software/programming/scripting problem not a hardware problem. The hardware is top of the line from what I've seen.

Also, the server has been upgraded before:

It did happen within the last couple years.

Both of these are from this thread, if you'd like to take a look.

I have heard the code is like a rat's nest built over a mess of sparking wires that could ignite at any minute if cajoled the wrong way, causing a meltdown.
