My Game got delay 3s after updates (chat delay in-game too)

Hi AOE2

After recently update, my PC got delay 3s when playing AOE2 game. Chat delay in-game too. It’s never happened before. My PC played well even I got pop up to 400. Please tell me what happened? I cannot play properly. Very disappointed. Thanks

Yeah something seems to be broken with that update. It feels pretty laggy and also fps are capped at 60 which is quite annoying.

Same here, never happened before (playing since 2019)… Now when I click some unit to do a task, it takes lag of 2/3 secs before they start doing it…

Same here. Just a day before I was having fun playing coop with my brother. And when we tried playing today the delay was bad. Sometimes my troops will move so fast and then slow down. Pretty weird.

yep, could definitely feel the difference with our group of same players. definitely feels more laggy even when everyone was just yellow clock and it wasnt this bad for at least 5-6 months.

Hi, im using Windows 10

I have big lag issues aswell, in a 1v1 game I had big stutters starting in feudal and the game became unplayable from that point on.

Hope we wont wait 3 weeks like the previous time. It’s just boring that everynew patch, there is something wrong. Also, why did you change the caracters for something which is less visible ?

Ok - but this answer isn’t enough: Please be communicative with the community and answer the following question:

Why was the font changed?
What was changed in the game’s code that caused this?
Why was said code changed?
How was this overseen by Quality Assurance (if it exists)?
Was the patch play-tested?
Is it server-related?
Why is there no hotfix revert?

Please answer the following questions. The community, should you value it, deserves a detailed explanation and this is what any big company would do. The game, much like after the anniversary patch, is in a non-enjoyable state in which lag starting at around 25 minutes in Multiplayer, Lobbies, and rumors going around in Campaigns & Singleplayer alike. Significant performance issues and lag spikes arise in later stages of any game and that is a no-go

I don’t know what, but something on your end has to change drastically. This is just embarrassing for a billion-dollar company that sponsors 100.000$ in events and totally unprecedented among the gaming sector. So please, for the first time ever, you need to change your view on the communication with the player base.

We are not apart from this game’s development, we are a part of the game’s development!
Please!

I personnaly have got AOE2 on window xbox live.
Could this happening because of windows xbox live and Steam network compatibility ?
