Continuous Stuttering/Lag Despite Stable FPS and Internet in PoE 2 Early Access

Also have this issue, game stutters most of the time. I play other MMO and the ping is very stable, so it's not my internet. Tried very low graphics settings, no difference, so it's not that.

Sometimes game is smooth, but mostly it stutters, sometimes very badly. I wonder if it's Canadian East server I'm connected to. Or VM they spin up for the map instance - can always try to re-generate the map if it stutters badly, but yes, more consistency/stability would be very nice.
GGG please fix this issue, game is very uncomfortable to play with consistent lag spikes.

In a game that requires clutch reaction times, either offer us an offline mode or fix your servers.

POE1 does not do this, POE2 0.1.0 and no other online games have issues like this does. I took today off like a complete chump to play this game and not only has it been constantly disconnecting, it's been lagging to the point where it is unplayable.

To everyone asking if GGG has seen this, if you look back another page from this comment one of the staff has said they are looking into the problem, its almost like no one wants to take the time to look through the pages and see if anything posted would help


Asking people to read through 138 pages is pure dum. They should have pinned it if they wan people to see.


There is a button that says "VIEW STAFF POSTS" right on this page.
Some of the newest Nvidia drivers are known to be very unstable, however I can't be certain thats whats causing your issues.

I'm on 466.36 driver from december, after it came out that the newer drivers were causing instabilities.
I'm getting disconnects and reset zones still, but peformance is good and even, with a 4080 on 466.36 version

Since Dawn of the hunt rolled out i had a day of constant crashes and now lag spiked that make the game unplayable.

Up until 3 days ago I never experienced any issues at all!
+1
spike and high ping once you start map (monsters respawn )
I think the jittery screens are from being 'pushed' by monsters when doing certain actions.
experiencing same issue since last patch 0.2.0c
did not see this thread, so created separated thread earlier
up to the last patch, everything worked fine
so issue is not related to drivers, hw or anything as nothing change on my system or anything else, except last patch/hotfix

as described, both clients were tested with several servers to mitigate isolated problem

Same issue here, game has been rendered completely unplayable after updating to the latest patch. Huge input delay and constant stuttering despite excellent performance and connection speed. Seems substantially worse in town hubs

Immediately after posting this I tp'd back to town again to log out and issue completely disappeared. I am so confused.

In summary: Issue appeared, I went back and fourth between zones a couple times because I thought maybe the lobby was just packed, restarted my computer when the issue persisted to the combat zone. Loaded game back up and issue was still there, went to combat zone and still there, tp'd back and now its fixed. tp'd around a few times and it hasn't come back. what in tarnation

Edit: completed the zone and moved to the next and it is back :(
