Some UI/Alert message delayed and out synchronized
Description: Since the new patch, a lot of UI/Alert message delayed and out synchronized. It shows quite a few seconds of delays to show in monitor compare to actual progress going on. Which is a similar issue to monster cabbies but only monster cabbies event was fixed.
list of noticeable delays
-All boss alert messages and system messages are delayed by few seconds.
-Dream Defender yellow/purple bar fills up very slowly than before the maintenance
-Boss Damien Bind arrow command UI on monitor takes few seconds to follow the current command state and progress which is out synched.
1. Take hit by Damien's bind attack.
2. Apply arrow command for following shown on UI
3. Observe the arrow command input and UI out synched.
-Spirit Saviour score UI takes few seconds to process and to show up in UI.
1. Rescue certain numbers of Rock Spirit
2. Observe it takes few seconds of delays that score is added and applied to score UI
-Quest alerts and sudden mission progress takes few seconds to apply.
1. Take a quest.
2. Progress the quest.
3. Observe the quest alert takes few seconds of delay.
-NPC chat and dialogue takes few seconds to process.
1. Talk to NPC and open chat.
2.. Observe that chat & dialogue takes few seconds of delay to show up.
Pretty much all UI/Alert message delayed and out synchronized since the item loot fix maintenance.
Comments
Most likely uses the Maple Achievement method to send updated values to the server (5 seconds delay) to reduce lag. (1 second delay for quests progress) (any longer is network lag)
"Boss Damien Bind arrow command UI on monitor takes few seconds to follow the current command state and progress which is out synched"
Feel the same now vs 5 months ago (0.3ish seconds to flash after pressing button)
"NPC chat and dialogue takes few seconds to process"
Appear instant for me
Most likely just server lag, routing issue, ISP issue.
Hmm... I hope that is the case but I am very sceptical since this all things have starting happen with the last week's maintenance where they have fixed the loot lag.
I am unable to record videos to show the different unfortunately but I do feel a significant difference since the last week.
Decided to post this to check if anyone else is experiencing similar issue as I think I am having.
If these were happening and occurred before and if these problems didn't start up since the last week maintenance, I would have suspected something else.
But thank you for the comment and detailed reply.
Maybe I have hasted too early to judge as a 'glitch' or 'bug', but I would like to see where this going.
