Unbearable Singapore server lags ONLY on PoE

Servers seem fine until about 20:00 UTC+7 and then its constantly over 200ms and ping jumps. Can set your watch to it.

Is there any alternative to Asian servers?

Everyone believes you're having terrible ping issues at these times, but without a WinMTR posted here (when you're having ping issues) then all that's seen are complaints without any visual evidence or common denominator for the exposure to get issues resolved.

Dude, we're like 20 people having the same issues and ONLY on the SG server. It happens to me on both of my computers, and I have tried 3 different ISPs. This is a real issue, not some random bug. When I connect to JP, Australia, or NZ servers, no lag spike, constant 100 / 200ms, but on SG server, it spikes like crazy, like we're playing the game in 1999.

did you read the part where Eleven777 said they "believe you're having ping issues"?

did you also read that without posting a WinMTR here it gets zero exposure except for typical forum complaints?
There are a lot of posts without a test posted.

Have you searched the forums for recent posts where some WinMTR traces have been ISP packet loss or high ping, mid route issues between the ISP and the GGG server, sometimes being rerouted for whatever reason, or weird instance based issues between hideout/towns/maps? Do you need someone to search and link these for you?

Again, I'm sure everyone believes there are issues connecting to the SG server locations.. but there are so many possible things that can cause connectivity issues end to end.
And without catching the issue it's hard to narrow down.

Also, here... I've fixed your WinMTR you posted to make it easier to read.
There aren't any ping related issues seen in that test.
The worst ping during this test to 172.65.254.9 was 17ms with zero packet loss.
The higher pings in the middle don't necessarily matter unless an issue is seen all the way to the bottom of the trace OR the test didn't capture.
Was this run when you were having high ping or packet loss issues?

IDK what to tell ya, it appears that Eleven was just trying to get the point across that the more info the better.


I've been having this issue since last week. I've been playing for the past two years and this is the first time it happened and for this long, an entire week. High ping/latency reaching up to 10k on my end. Constant fluctuations from 100-500ms making the game literally unplayable. In the 2 years time I've been playing I would encounter this issue but very rarely and they didn't occur for a week. Closing/opening the game fixes it or restarting my PC.

I've also been constantly keeping an eye on this forum to see similar posts to confirm it's just not on my end.

Currently at work so can't do WinMTR. I'll do it later but from what I've seen so far it's not helping resolve the issue at all. I'm pretty sure as well it's not my ISP. All we can do I guess is wait.
