    And now we have some new behavior where a message on the screen says "Connection to Server Established!" but then does absolutely nothing. No Retry button. No Play button. No Characters. Not sure this is an improvement.

    Today I wanted to finish my mini event, but when I entered there were still 8 minutes until maintenance. After the maintenance, my character dances even at the gate, I don't get to enter the map from the bear .... how can I do another minievent. But I can do something :)) to close the game. Thanks DSO.

    I logged in just out of curiosity, having read your comments... and at Kingshill I really laughed out loud: I find myself skating (although bouncing would be the more appropriate term) from one side of the map to another without even needing to click the mouse.

    And the most funny thing is seeing dozens of players in the same situation as me: it really feels like being on skates on one of those ice rinks outside shopping centres, full of dozens of clumsy people who can't even stand up... a Holiday on Ice to the nth degree, with people high on steroids... great BigPoint, we can't play but at least we laugh too much.

    I'm in the same situation, they need to find a solution urgently. I couldn't finish the Mini Event.

    Symptom 1: First time logging in, white screen with test animations for over a minute before Kingshill map loaded. Did the cave.

    Symptom 2: Changing pets works, but there's a 5-6 second delay from selection to actual pet swapping.

    Symptom 3: Selling junk also entails 5-6 second delay.

    Symptom 4: Traveled/teleported to Hiraja. Shorter loading screen delay of ~20 seconds. No rubber-banding. Went into Great Desert map with no issues. Left Great Desert and rubber-banding began in Hiraja. Tried going back to character selection screen, the re-loading the same character. Did not resolve rubber-banding issue. Eventually crawled (literally taking one step, pause, take another step) to the travel stone, jumped back to Kingshill (after a 110 second loading screen delay).

    Symptom 5: No rubber-banding ... until I entered the event map. So, rubber-banding is not tied exclusively to urban areas.


    Server: Grimmag, accessed from West Coast USA.
    Latency indicator: I'm seeing 500, 1,000 - 1,400 in the event map (on any other day, no matter the location, my latency is typically in the range of 200-270). Drops back to the 175 - 2xx range, with or without rubber-banding, and whether or not I move or take any action, then bounces back to some other random higher value.

    Recommendation: Devs should NEVER EVER implement new code (other than an emergency hotfix to address a very specific issue) on Thursday or Friday, as they understandably don't want to work on the weekend to correct their patches, leaving the customers unable to play for 3-5 days waiting for an eventual fix.

    People wanted a decent game instead of more premium than they wanted. We see that bigpoint is maneuvering not for what is wanted, but for what is not wanted.
