**GAME BUILD #: 101.101.45340.06228353
GAME PLATFORM: Steam
OPERATING SYSTEM: Windows 10
ISSUE EXPERIENCED
The game is freezing for time periods of around 1 to 10 seconds, and then everything happens all at once, making the game completely unplayable. This has never happened before the latest updates. Other players in the same game are not reporting that they freeze when I do and this has rendered multiplayer ranked play impossible.
FREQUENCY OF ISSUE
How often does the issue occur? CHOSE ONE; DELETE THE REST!
In some sessions it does not happen at all, then all of a sudden it happens in three matches in a row. Very erratic have not recorded exactly how many times it happens. I’d say about 15% of the total matches played, but sometimes it can happen often.
Are you guys hosting the game when feeling lag? It seems to me that the game is more laggy for the host. When I hosted a game, I felt lag and my friend didn’t. Then my friend hosted the next game, this time he felt lag but I was completely fine.
PLEASE DO SOMETHING. I have now lost more than 100 elo due to having to resign due to this issue. It is very erratic and lag is being only form my part, but not my internet connection or PC because I’m checking. I only play multiplayer, and this has made the game completely useless for me. I am currently making a community in my country to promote the game. But I am on the verge of stopping everything and asking for a refund. At least acknowledge that this is a real problem and whether it is occurring to other people. The worst part is that somehow this is one-sided lag.
Same here, never had this problem until now. Games starts well as usual, but after 5-10 min it freezes and then I can’t do anything, after 30 or 40 secs villagers move very fast to match the other players, and game goes back to normal. Only happens once per game, but its very annoying. Usually when going from Feudal to Castle age.
Hello! Thank you for reporting this issue, and I am sorry you’re experiencing these troubles. If you have not already, please be sure to contact our support team so they can collect the proper logs and files to help the team diagnose and fix the problem:
it’s exactly what has happened to me too the last week. Just today I received a 30min ban from online gaming because of this issue. I am NOT a quitter. So it both ruins the gameplay and I am banned from gaming… Can anyone of you gamers or anyone hired in AoE help me? This feels both frustrating and unfair +++
