Just wanted to say thanks for the 2x, while leaving the really bad stutter lag issue in the game, making the game unplayable for lots. This stutter lag has been an issue for almost a week, even DCing people, yet announcement or fix for it, a simple disable of the new chat system would fix it, as that is the cause. It seems the chat system gets easily flooded, and unable to reconnect/auth with the client, and the client hammers the chat system to reconnect every 2 seconds, causing lots of lag. I was just at normal horntail, which is usually a 2-3 minute fight for my lvl 166 Kinesis, but this time, 10 minutes into it, I DCed, needing only a few more hits to kill horntail, but now I lost since I DC'ed. Thanks again Nexon for caring so much.

    You really shouldn't play on CH1 during 2x, ESPECIALLY if you know there is a lag issue currently going on.

    I was on ch 11 when I DCed, and then when I re logged I tried CH 14, and the same lag as before. Its the chat system not flushing old connections, or not accepting auths, or something, but it is definitely the new chat system, because blocking outgoing connections to it, fixes the problem 8 out of 10 times.

    Almost 4 days (since Thursday) = Almost a week?
    OK.

    Other than that, yeah, they should have shut down the chat channel server as soon as the players figured out that's the cause of the stuttering.
    Hopefully we'll get extra 2x next week to make up for this exceptionally bad "holiday" 2x.
