Ps5 PoE 2 lag issues

"
So for anyone who is facing an issue with high ms spikes and lags on PS5, this is what helped to me:

1. Go to main screen
2. Go to Settings > Game
3. Select the Gateway closest to your location instead of Auto
4. Login into your character
5. When you are in game, go to a new map location or clear the current map location and enter as a new.

Step #5 is required as the old current map is still on the "Auto" server which causes lags if it's not the closest one to you.

Hope it helps



I have tried it all, and this makes no difference.
It's funny how some ppl think we are to dumb to notice the options.

Like alot ppl here I have the same problem even wired can be annoying, but it helps a little sometimes.

Still only this game makes so much problem with the connection hope they take a deeper look at the network soon.
SAME! Battling this problem every day, no gateway options helps, I've tried literally everything possible. Graphics changes, gateway, auto gateway, wired and wireless connections, wifi router with VPN... Like NOTHING HELPS!

GGG PLEASE, A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE! ADDRESS IT! IT'S BORDERLINE UNPLAYABLE!
It's funny btw, because some times during the day or late night, I am able to play ALMOST lag free. These latency spikes are ruining the game so bad, it's insane!
Could be that their servers can't hold that many players?
I am using wired cable, no Wi-Fi here and the plays perfect without 0 lag except on the citys or acampments.. On these places, it lags so Hard.

Me too. The horrible input lag also seems to be fixed after 0.1.0d.

Towns are truly rough though. Almost going down to 30fps 😵‍💫
I have this problem too. Tried different graphics settings, but nothing helped. In hubs, everything is much worse. I have completed the campaign twice, but I will not play in the endgame with such problems for now. I will wait for fixes.
Hello, every trial I tried on ps5, if I die because of 0 honour, I get locked... it dosent freeze but cant do anything and only leaving the game and then Restarting solves the problem..
Ok so i have now thought some more about this and my analysis after my troubleshooting is this has nothing to do with network performance or issues. Its all about graphic issues/bugs for the ps5.

No matter which server nor what network latency i had the game would lag like mad and freeze up for 1-8 seconds. At one point i started to test what features of the game is still working if any and i found that my inventory for example was fine. I could move items around etc but my character was even on the inventory screen frozen in time, just like out in the game world. This made me realize its a graphical issue.

So, after changing my settings from NIS to FSR with max image quality set to quality and sharpness to max the game is insanely good looking and smooth. But the best part is, no more lagging nor freezing! I played for about 6 hours without any issue.

I hope this helps guys.
Unfortunately, the problem also exists with me. I checked many settings, changed the gateway, reinstalled the game, restarted the router, cleared the cache in the PS5 and all this without success. The game freezes several times, lags incredibly often or simply crashes. Sometimes my ping goes up to 100000 before the game throws me out. Unfortunately, the game is really unplayable and that's pretty sad. It's a pity that nothing happens there.
