[GI] This is a joke...right?

Okay, i am FE,i am more then capable of doing this gate. Beta gate. This is obnoxious. I have no problem what-so-ever, soloing Kristallons x2. Ive killed more then enough to get past this wave.

Attempt one: I was doing fine, i just got off work. I was on mu suicide smashing them. Every time id get half hp, id run and heal quickly and resume. I do believe i got to about, where there are maybe 3-4 left. I lagged out and lost my last life, of previously lagging out in another wave, which didn't bother me so much. I lost my Beta that day, i emailed support and gladly they gave it back. I am very thankful...

Attempt two: Today, well tonight actually, i attempted this again. I was running a low but steady 15 FPS with minimal everything and graphics engine set to performance.
----
I noticed a lag spike when Icy Meteorites came on. Thus i quickly ran to the corner of the map and relogged.

I came back to a fresh, smooth running game...however there was something not right.
If i could just rememb- OH! yeah. i remember now. There was no Kristallon on my screen or mini map. So i pulled chat up, shooed a troll off and asked for help. I had no clue what to do. i Couldn't lock, couldn't see what i was fighting. AT first i thought "Heck maybe if i run around a little bit it will thaw out and i can do my wave in peace" well that was a problem, as i could not even detect them on my minimap. I died. Im not so mad about this. But before all this started...


Me and my VRU friend(im EIC) was doing some npcing in EIC maps. Shortly we encountered a Saimon that could not be locked. A fellow EIC approached us with the same will apprently to attack this NPC. This NPC could not be locked form his side either, so i told my friend, lock that saimon. It was not possible.

base line of the question is, this is a joke right? There is (please tell me i'm hallucinating) no glitch, bug, error, hack, ect what ever you want to call it... that is making this happen right'? If me, my friend and that EIC arent liars, and were not all crazy...this needs looked into.

i can confirm the invisible npc in gates after re log relogged again and npcs showed up

a trick Ive found about lag spikes in gates is if you switch to fullscreen mode and back again it sometimes clears it up not all the time but better then trying to re logg first

 

Yes I found the exact same situation. I forget what map it was on but the "lordakia" was un-lockable by anyone.

You where not hallucinating

You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough​

 

I'm not sure if this is related but several days ago whilst boxing I encountered a couple of bonus boxes that just stood on my screen but couldn't be picked up, I just remembered where they were and didn't bother attempting to pick them up on the following circles I made across the map; Point being it might not be only npcs that are bugged

 

Correct not just NPC's i found that with the box's if there are a lot of rocks floating around things get a bit laggy and the box's just stay stuck. With the beta gate had almost the same happen with a lag spike were the LK was out of HP and shields but would not pop and my pet was collecting cargo of it and the reward was given for the kill went to the other corner to mop up the runaways and the problem eased so i could jump out with lives intact. So im going to leave the remaining maps till the server is quiet and the frenzy for icy's is over.

 

I heard/read somewhere that the boxes & NPCs that could not be picked up/locked are part of DO's attempt to catch botters. The bot scripts are written to be able to collect/lock, so if anyone manages to pick/lock it, they're running a script

 

Peopel who have problem with their connection.. i can just suggest you to finish off every npc that starts running to corner.

If you have some locking problems i just suggest running from corner to another corner while relloging. And if this problem stays and its just one npc, you can try to your pet to kill it. If that npc doesnt do dmg to you and its unlockable but its following you, youd have to use some radzone. I hadnt encoutered that, so thats all what can i say or suggest.

 

ßLФФDЖ§†ДIПΞD, I am sorry you are experiencing issues with the game. Have you tried a different browser to see if the issue can be replicated in a different browser? Are you using the 2D or 3D client? Have you tried switching from one to the other?

Please let us know the status of your issue.

Best regards,

This isnt a browser problem, I can confirm these glitches he posted above(which ive experienced before) Most of it is a visual glitch by bigpoint and they can mostly be fixed by reloading the page again.

Happy Holidays!
