Lag spikes since 3.20

Just fix this holy f*** almost 2 weeks with CONSTANT spikesssss

Same for me, I get better ping on NA servers than on EU servers despite being from EU.. its pathetic having to play in canada east server beacuse EU servers have 300-400 constant ms and spikes to 5k

Same issues, unplayable latency spikes up to thousands of ms. I have strong anecdotal evidence it's the GGG servers.

I have over 4000 hours in, very stable cable connection, play exclusively EU servers, had only minor latency issues (mainly during league starts). Now I can't even play, every 30 seconds or so, huge latency spikes. I tried troubleshooting my end, nothing seems to help.

When I switch to USA servers, the problem seems to disappear. When I play off-peak EU hours (let's say 1:00 AM working day), no problems. However during peak hours (evenings and weekends) no matter what EU server I choose, unplayable. If my gut feeling is right, this latency issue will resolve itself when the player base inevitably moves to other games the more the league progress.

The way I see it, there is so much demand for GGG servers this league, they simply can't keep up.

What's your take on this?

Hia, am from Czech, am having constant periodical spikes ranging from 200 to 1000ms, often happens that ping jumps up to 20-50k for no reason at all, i always do internet checks to veryfi that my connection is stable, there are no spikes in latency and am not downloading anything at the time of the spikes.
Interesting stuff is that i dont recall having those kind of spikes when i started this (3.21 Crucible) league some 2 months ago, but for some 0.5 to 1 month now, whenever i launch the game i have constant lag spikes, its mostly unplayable since when you are running around the map you spend more than half the time fighting with latency around 500ms.

You're literally proving yourself wrong.

If the issue is more common at peak times, it's 100% chance an ISP issue.

I can't believe this is still a problem, sound off, reinstall, low settings bla bla bla etc etc etc driver etc and still unable to play due to lag spikes

Same here. Spikes since ~3.20

Game is actually unplayable, good job GGG your servers are on par with Diablo 4 now. Guess I'm off to play torchlight infinite since I don't get constant lag spikes there.

Same here, playing EU servers only, latency spikes non stop for 1 week straight

Lag spikes 50k - 100k+ ms every couple of hours or so, otherwise game runs normally (not counting multi-threading bug, but that is 1 year old).

Internet works normally, it's some bug with PoE.
