Flashing Sword & Wand

Flashing Sword & Wand

Postby Magicman » Fri Oct 11, 2013 7:19 am

Hey DW team & players,
Anyone else get the flashing sword and wand EVERY attack in the game?
Quite frankly, I am getting sick of it. It has not been days, it has not been months, it has basically been for the last year or more.
I do not have slow internet, so why can I screenshot the flashing sword & wand because they are ALWAYS there and there so long?
Really does not make the game enjoyable and the more it happens, the less I play.....

Such a shame I cannot upload my screenshot

I rarely get that and it's usually when my laptop needs a clean up, defrag etc

PC is fine, I am in IT and spend my day cleaning off "performer" programs & yes I have also tried ad-free.
Thanks for the suggestion :geek:

I've been getting that as well, and the Spinning Blue Ball of Aggravation +9. Was really bad earlier this week. Hope the problem is resolved soon

Well you better get used to it on occasion it's what comes up when your interaction with a world entity is being calculated.......It's technical but it's doing the math of how your toon interacts with what you are hitting and shows the crossed sword and stave while it does it.

If it only happened on occasion I would be fine with it, but I get either the crossed Staff and Swords or the Spilling Blue circle. The game is basically unplayable for me at this time, and that's with trying it out on multiple browsers.

Same - I have reached the point where I have been waiting for almost 2 years for an upgrade that changes things. For me to it's only playable 1 hour of each week. Can't work with that or level anything!? Since Max Explore was created I have been dumping my e every couple of days, that's just counter-productive....

I get this on occasion (1/5 mob fights maybe). If this issue is only for specific people, it cannot be simply fixed. I found this would happen EVERY fight with a slower internet connection a long time ago though, since I upgraded it's been fine.

Some service providers lower your mb/s during peak usage times. I have found playing late at night verses right after schools let out reduces the lag. Another option is to go to the character page and click settings and turn off all the flashy BS that isnt that interesting anyhow. You also have to consider the fact that during certain times of the day the Dream World servers spike in the amount of players logged in, if you choose to play during these hours you could get double lagged. Lag from server capacity and lag from local area spikes.

I have disabled all the flashy's, i have a good service provider and no issues with other games.

The fact that King of Jesters is not having the same issues disheartens me- that means it is obviously not a southern hemisphere problem :(
