If you have lag/connectivity issues making the game unplayable/annoying, post here and be counted.

Count me in. The biggest reason I am not playing Hardcore is the desync and latency issues. I love PoE and not giving up on it. I know costs are high for an Australian/NZ server, but if they do set one up, I will be so stoked!

Add me to the list, just lost my 3rd HC character to it. In fact, was fin all day until just an hour ago. Game became unplayable.

I can't even play at all. Usually ping under 50 but since today...... ping over 8000...................................... :( Put me three times on that list

Somewhere, somehow latest pacth just wrecked client/server connection: i am recently discovered Path Of Exile for mysefl, and was simply amazed by ingame skill system... But, back om topic - i play trough Europe Gateway, from Russia. Average ping 50-60 and all that jazz - for almost a week game were running smootly, without major/annoing bugs and with little to none synchronization issue... And then, just right after my first full go trough Normal mode i got... well, the thing almost everyone in Support subforum have: sometimes ping skyrockets from "normal" (like above, 50-60 for me) to 300, 600 and even 900 ms. Sometimes it just flatlines, as in zero - my bet ont that one, client/serve connection crash. And with that goes loading screen freeze, character teleportation and thing's, usually going with bad net.

My major concern in all this is simple - EVERYTHING started suddenly, without warning, and, for anked eye's, completly random...

P.S. Currently i have two clients installed, while using same access point for Net - wireless Router with wire connection (PC) and Wi-Fi (NoteBook).

I'm one of the afflicted as well. Really bad lag when anyone else uses cold skills, if I'm playing a summoner, basically anything that isnt a straight melee. I have a pretty new computer and haven't had any problems when playing Diablo 3 as a summoner (not comparing the games comparing how much is going on screen).

another one lagging since open beta.... tired..

Honestly it has gotten worse lately.

It seems like after they started doing the races the server latency has gone to crap.

Experiencing more lag spikes and de-syncs now than before the race servers were put online.

Gotten to the point where between the latency, low FPS from the spell effects, and really bad lightning in certain areas, I get headaches and eye aches from playing - making it borderline unplayable.

No idea why so many problems lately, but other games run fine just as they always have without lag spikes, things like streams and downloading are fine - ruling out the possibility that my internet is acting up.

i have lags depends on what time it is

Hey guys !
I'm experiencing some hard lags spikes as well. Mainly while using "Whirling Blades" ability through a pack of mobs (but happens with all skills, but less often). I pass through monsters and hit them but i deal no damages. And then die for no reason because i keep getting damaged even if i ran away. Really annoying when you die and have to do a whole level again because your instance has been closed. Hope it will be fixed soon !

Thank you !

I have no idea why I started getting these issues, ive power cycled but my internet wasnt the issue. Bump Im having random disconnects often its making me want to quit till its fixed, updated all my drivers aswell nothing on my end.
