PLEASE ADJUST THE PING CAP OR FIND AN ALTERNATIVE

[willow pier]

Oh it's terrible

Especially on pvp servers

Think of growing an fs for 3-4 hours for it to die in 15 seconds because you got kicked for desynchronization even though you weren't lagging at all

Maybe there was a small ping spike, but even that seems like it's still enough for players to get kicked for it

You can't even stream the game without getting kicked for it anymore

[safe coyote]

Yeah I thought the patch last night was supposed to help alleiviate this with the increased tolerance before kicking

[willow pier]

If anything, it's made a lot of players in my clan and others much more upset about it

because it's happening more frequently to us now

[shy wind]

yea when i saw the new patch notes i was SO HAPPY but i join just for the same thing to happen..

[willow pier]

I live an hour away from the Servers in Dallas, yet here I am experiencing this problem which makes little to no sense to me. One of the server hosts even came into this post and was very helpful about the information they were providing and even stated themself that it could be due to the ping cap

I have good internet
I have a good PC
I only have DoD and Discord open
But I'm getting kicked for desync and punished bc of it

[willow pier]

We all were happy about it

But it's began happening more

[fringe plinth]

Kiki I literally feel so bad for you bc I can confidently say you're one of the ppl getting punished the MOST for it

So basically the 1.0.0.2 proved itself to be useless and did not help at all, this should be enough to completely take off the ping cap 🤷‍♀️
People are downvoting because they haven't experienced themselves but that doesn't matter when 80% of the player base is suffering and 80% are consistently dealing with kicks

[willow pier]

which is just confusing how and why

[willow pier]

That's another thing I didn't understand. People who were downvoting only downvoted because they weren't experiencing the problem anymore or at all. So like, why even add your input if you aren't experiencing the problem at hand? It's a bit goofy

And majority of those downvotes came from 1 clan called HOUND 💀

[fringe plinth]

LITERALLY
I experienced desync at the beginning of the server or like once every 5 hours now, but SO MANY of my friends are getting kicked over and over and over.. like it's not only ruining their gameplay but it's affecting me too. Like imagine I'm in a 3v5, two of my teammates get kicked, now it's a 3v2 and I've lost.

[willow pier]

It ruins the experience

Fights that are winnable suddenly turn to us needing to pull because we had 3 of our people kicked because of desync

And those 3 end up dying bc they can't load back in fast enough

[fringe plinth]

Just because YOU haven't experienced the desync doesn't mean other people aren't. Downvote if you think ping cap should be kept, NOT if you aren't experiencing the desync.

Also it's ridiculous that we can't get revived for losing dragons to desync. You are literally helpless because of a game glitch thinking you're hacking when in reality you just went over the ping cap for .5 seconds.

[willow pier]

When you get kicked for desync, you need to restart your entire game which just adds even more time to that

[shy wind]

the game is literally unplayable for me

[willow pier]

You should refund honestly

I feel bad for you Kiki lol

[shy wind]

i havnt hit adult on a single thing. i either get kicked too much and give up or get kicked and cant back in so then give up

like i aint even be able to fly over the new map

like the update has been out for how long?? and i havnt even been able to EXPLORE the map..

[willow pier]

Almost 2 weeks now

[fringe plinth]

Also kiki have you ever experienced a large amount of lag on any other games enough to get you kicked? Like Ark for example? Or OW?
Because hound thinks it's a wifi problem and it's obviously just the DoD ping cap being stupid

[shy wind]

its g etting to that point where i have 4 accounts that im gonna get a refund now on all

[shy wind]

i have some ping issues on ow sometimes but atm im playing more ow then anything coz i cant play dod and i aint been kicked in ages i cant even remmeber...

ark i have no issues

[floral ibex]

imagine being a backer for this game and spend hundreds of $ just to not even be able to play it

[shy wind]

BRUH 2 weeks and i havent even been able to FLY OVER THE MAP because of this ping issue

like if people are still desyncing into 2026 why even have the ping cap??? ive seen fs over streams from friends desync like crazy and im here afk on a baby and get kicked 5 times in 2 mins?!?!

LIKE I JUST WANNA BE A DUKB DRAGOn

[fringe plinth]

Exactly like you aren't even having problems on ARK and dod is unplayable 😭
It's not the WiFi it's the ping cap. Periodd

[shy wind]

fr like ark is completely fine

and ow sometimes can lag but its only for a few seconds

[willow pier]

At this point I'm considering on just uninstalling the game because of how unplayable it can be at times. I might go play other games until this issue is fixed, if it is lol

[shy wind]

i might join you i can get about 70quid back if i refund all my accounts

put that into getting ow skins

[willow pier]

honestly I dont like OW that much

[shy wind]

LE GASP

[willow pier]

but at least OW is playable in comparison to this game

[shy wind]

fr tho

[fringe plinth]

Sell for $25 to ppl

[shy wind]

like id understand if its just people with bad wifi and because of the ping cap theres no desyncers but people are still desyncing like crazy.. its not sovled the problem AT ALL

[shy wind]

yea honestly my alts i can then my main i can refund 🤔

like this shoulod be the FIRST thing they fix... like the bugs and whatever else is wrong with the game is what ever but this ping cap is literally making it so people CANT PLAY and instead of them taking 4 months to keep fixing it and it not working to then do something else... just get rid off it its not doing what its suppose to if people are still desyncing like crazy and not getting kicked

id rather sometimes fight someone thats desyncing then not have half my friends be able to play AT ALL...

[pallid tusk]

Gentle reminder to please stay on topic in this forum. Currently the suggestion/feedback is regarding the official ping cap. Therefore discussions in here should be regarding it. Different feedback and suggestions should be made into a new forum. Moving away from the general topic of this forum will result in it being closed.

[fringe plinth]

Alr so let's remove the ping cap please and thank you 🙏🙏

[shy wind]

ong

[blissful helm]

i play on the us servers from SWEDEN and i have no problems lmao

[safe coyote]

I wish we could pinpoint what everyone who is desyncing a lot have in common, then maybe we could find a solution

[pallid parrot]

In short, all I've seen from this channel is that the weaker clans want the ping cap to stay cause they're scared of the stronger clans having the ability to actually play the game

Very nice

[floral ibex]

from what I've noticed personally, it seems like a lot of desyncers use satellite internet. Which you shouldn't be punished for. That's all some locations have

[pallid parrot]

Fiber-optic internet here and still getting desynced.

[fringe plinth]

It's not the internet, for example; kiki keeps getting kicked 24/7 in DoD but has almost perfect ping in ARK survival evolved and Overwatch. It's not the WiFi, it's the game.

We have already concluded it's the ping cap not doing it's job correctly

[floral ibex]

I agree with that

[shy wind]

yea i get kicked in dod WITHOUT EVEN JOKING like 6 times within like 3 mins in ow i get lag/kicked like once a week like the difference is crazy the game is broken...

and ark i have no issues at all

[trim lake]

Funny how u can play a game with high graphics and stuff but a soon as u play dod it crashes every second and then u get told it’s ur pc is crap 😂

[fringe plinth]

Kiki is living evidence it's not the WiFi it's the game
And imma continue to say that until ppl understand it's not the WiFi it's the game

1.0.0.2 didn't work for multiple players, so time take action on that and remove it completely 👍👍

[trim lake]

Agreed

[neon coral]

The thing is there really arent any similarities to be found. Everyone is different. Some people have higher end pcs, others lower end. Some people live RIGHT next to the server towers with great internet speeda etc, others live in the boonies.

Those facts alone means there is something wrong with the game, not the players as EVERYONE seems to think.

The ping cap coding is messed up. Its not doing what it was intended for; instead it has now made the game unplayable for many.

REMOVE THE PING CAP

Or at least remove it until it is ACTUALLY tested and flushed out thoroughly.

Then once it works as it is supposed to, add it back if need be.

But until then, the game is unplayable and so the game count is lowering.

Imagine a server that used to be nearly 100 every day to being barely 30 ish 💀

[amber plank]

...I am mostly confused because I never heard any complaints from people on Frozen Throne, though that might just be me not catching those, nor have I got any experiences of being kicked at all or been told of anyone having them in the EU zone? So it confuses me where the difference there is, or if it's just me not catching it.

[neon coral]

It might not be on that server, but dragon king and other servers like blood moon and some EU servers are experiencing it.

[amber plank]

Then that does not sound like it is, in fact, the -game- , but some of the servers having specific issues? Cause otherwise it would be on all the servers including private servers.

[scenic robin]

we still have people having the same desync and kicking issues accross all servers

they can't play at all because all they do is get kicked

[neon coral]

It could also just be players within your group that might not have issues. But I've heard of randoms from all servers be unable to play - especially pvp...

[amber plank]

Also fair assessments. As said, just sharing my experience of not having had any contact with anyone or experienced it myself, but that's just my perspective.

I still voted no on removing the ping cap because it feels like at least a sizable group of those in favour want it gone to go back to lag switching (not blaming anyone specific, just that there most definitely are at least -some- just itching for it) and because the problem it was put in to remove is inevitably going to crop back up if we do and make the game just as unplayable, except now one gets to rage over dying to stuff you do not even see.

Though I am glad it was already adjusted to just adjusting it over flat removing it. Hoping that they fix their fix soon to make it at least less trigger-happy than it is at the moment.

[neon coral]

If the ping cap worked as it should people wouldnt be getting mad.

Its the fact it doesnt. So remove the ping cap UNTIL it is THOROUGHLY tested/flushed out and won't randomly kick people...

[scenic robin]

theres anti-cheat implemented for lag switching i beleive? and honestly no matter what it doesn't matter a the end of the day with desync, everyone does it, even if its unintentional ppl still have desync

[near tapir]

tbf Ryuu got kicked so many times during a fight, I'm not sure if the recent patch fixed it though
on UK server we barely have any complaints about ppl getting kicked with a good ping inside our clan at least, I don't know about other players

I'm sure if NOIR or aops had them they'd surely complain somewhere

[amber plank]

Most loudly, too.
Didn't know about the bit with Ryuu, good to have that input, thanks Todo! ❤️

[near tapir]

Also ppl having a higher ping doesn't change much from others bc even now I could desync myself with a low ping by simply flying through trees and taking a few turns as jail's saying lol

[robust spruce]

Ping Cap shouldn't be removed nor should it be raised because it doesn't make sense to do so. Could it be more stabilized/optimized so that it works smoothly and doesn't wrongfully kick players? Yes. However, it shouldn't be removed nor raised. 300 is beyond high enough for players. I can't differentiate this and Valorant, If I can play Val on EU Servers and remain stable. Ping cap being the "issue" still doesn't make sense to me, but I'm not against a more optimized game, but that'll come in time.

[neon coral]

Which is why I say remove it til it is fixed and THOROUGHLY flushed out. As it stands the ping cap is not doing as it was intended. Players that forced desync don't get kicked, but random people that never had desync issues are.

[robust spruce]

https://tenor.com/view/happy-dance-gif-14813697

[cyan scarab]

Devs have so much work to do, skins doesn’t work, optimization doesn’t work, ping cap doesn’t work

Food doesn’t work, everyone’s starving

[trim lake]

The reason why ur not hearing it on that server it probably doesn’t have a low ping cap

[pine girder]

The ping cap very much does work, because I get booted for spiking past the cap on a regular basis

[cyan scarab]

I mean it does at a basic level but it’s just giving so much problem because players are getting kicked over these lag spikes even when they have good pcs and good internet

[robust spruce]

Everyone that's being kicked for the desync and what not should post their specs and how easily it happens so that Jao see's the #'s. Rather than words.

[pine girder]

I want to say it's not a ping cap issue, but a server under load issue... But that's not what it is sadly, since there's only 22 active servers atm in the game and none of them are maxed out. It is a rudimentary system still in development, so it's bound to have to have issues, which I'm fine with since the game is still EA.

That being said, it's unfair to demand a fix to something that's hella minor compared to other issues the game is facing atm that are more of an immediate issue

[safe coyote]

I'm not sure how a problem where a significant amount of people are desyncing, especially if they're on a server where their ping seems normal, is a minor issue... Unless I'm misunderstanding your post.

Maybe it wouldn't be as much of an issue if getting to adult didn't get a significant amount of time. It feels terrible to lose a dragon that way.

[pine girder]

Compared to optimization, lack of food, and the other glaring issues, desync is the least of their worries. It'll get fixed, but others take priority

[safe coyote]

Maybe it's just how my brain works, but I'd classify significant amounts of desyncing issues as an optimization-adjacent issue.

[eager ember]

Not to mention the game has some sort of memory leak it uses like over half my memory when it’s running

Lags my whole pc

[lone notch]

Me an Australian :')

[willow pier]

https://discord.com/channels/576933363672285186/1208578801445904394

We have two threads. Ones a bit older but majority of the people from the other thread agree still

[cyan scarab]

Yes I do believe it should be increases

[scenic fox]

Increase it so people can play the game, not everyone has good internet. Some people live in the middle of nowhere

[cyan scarab]

REMOVE THE PING CAP PLS

[floral ibex]

by the gods. We can't play the game. Please

[shy wind]

bro my pc aint bad at all the people saying that is so annoying my pc is a high end pc... like its the game- my wifi aint the best yea but i can play other games IN US SERVERS (im in the uk) and be fine

its dumb that i cant play this game when i PAY for said game. i want it fixed or my money back IN FULL

[floral ibex]

I like how the ping cap issues blames everything and everyone, but the game responsible for it

[shy wind]

fr tho like 💀

[sage coral]

Fix it

[trim lake]

I know we all have that issue, u can play a high graphic game with no issues but when it comes to a cheap as game it crashes everytime

[willow pier]

Im gonna start counting

Day 2 of waiting for this to be addressed

[strong flower]

I play on the UK servers basically when Day of dragons came out and live i NZ i now can't play on any UK or US servers because of the ping cap and AU servers are dead. so now can't play anything

[willow pier]

I dont think super rhino realizes that this issue is serious

[neon shale]

The devs also didn't utilize the game very well, to be honest they utilized the coding and entities horribly, so the ping is worse than it was ever before, a lot of people who are getting high ping now actually had pretty decent ping before 1.0. The devs just added and crammed a bunch of crap into the game with little to no utilization, my braindead cousin could make this game more efficient. Since the devs either can't or wont utilize the game properly, regardless of what it is, they need to up the ping cap for the time being at the very least. I understand a lot of you are severely lacking in brainpower and your last 2 braincells are fighting for 3rd place but I have a lot of faith in those braincells to correctly determine that for the time being and possibly permanently, the ping cap needs to be raised. I didn't specify who was lacking brainpower so if you took offense to this you are probably one of them. S.F.D

P.S- creators, don't be sorry, be better.

[trim lake]

agreed 100%

[rocky oyster]

same here

[pallid parrot]

How about we run a test since some of the people voting no were claiming all people getting kicked had bad PCs.

One simple search result in the server uncovers this.

I could probably screenshot a lot more.

This isn't a small amount of people creating a fake problem, it's multiple people including an arsenal of people that don't even know this suggestion exists.

[floral ibex]

do I see a trend with i7 core? I also have i7 and get kicked way more than my friends do

For the record, i7 isn't bad. Just possibly a bug associated with the game kicking those with an i7 core

[pallid parrot]

Can't imagine what the people with weaker cpu's are feeling like

[floral ibex]

oh a lot of them can't even login to the servers

[pallid parrot]

Cause this alienates over half the player base, the servers which were once 107/100 on steam servers are now down to 4/100

And it's clear some people are more than happy to allow that result to continue on just so for the 1 hour a day they log on there is no competition.

If they are that afraid of competition, go to a pve server and allow pvp to be fixed for the rest of us.

[pallid parrot]

Exactly

[floral ibex]

steam servers? Like the regular DoD servers are dead? I'm afraid I don't quite understand what you mean by that

[pallid parrot]

If you go on the steam app itself, you can load up the server list of active servers ingame prior to loading the game and get an accurate amount of how many are online/how many are attempting to get on it.

It will work with any game actually.

[floral ibex]

I see. Dang the servers already died that quickly? I can't say I'm surprised though

[pallid parrot]

This is at most 2 weeks now after 1.0 release.

[floral ibex]

yeah that died very quickly

[pallid parrot]

This is the server everyone in this vote are debating about.

There are 3 out of 100 players online, first day was 100 continuously

Yet people are more than happy for there to be no change

Or actually

Let's say for example someone brings up the argument that this is too early for people in the US to get on and that the UK players would be playing right now instead.

This is the state of the UK players on a Saturday afternoon at 2:07 PM.

Two weeks after the new release.

Compare those figures now from the ATH and it's just sad to see.

If those 3000 people could see this vote right now, I'm sure it would be a literal landslide.

[floral ibex]

for real. I also know for a fact that's more than just the ping caps that's making DoD empty again. I think this was the fastest for DoD to go empty in it's history

[pallid parrot]

It is definitely more, but a temporary fix to play around with while a real solution is released is not a bad idea, if they care even an ounce for player-retention. Something as simple as increasing ping to a new limit wouldn't take over 60 seconds to complete.

Literally

[willow pier]

Honestly bro at this rate i give up on this game

Switching to a different game until they get their crap together

Which is probably not going to happen so 🖖

[floral ibex]

I feel you on this. I get more entertainment out of the drama on Discord than the game itself lol. Maybe Jao will finally find the critiques section instead of ignoring it

[willow pier]

Started at 100 server maxed pop for Dragonking where all the top pvp clans are

Now dropped to 3-20 people on a day. This is supposed to be an OFFICIAL server and it has such low pop now, I’m so disappointed of being ignored

If the devs want to die on this hill, then so be it but I’m not going to be here to watch anymore I give up lol 🚪 🚶‍♂️

[floral ibex]

My favorite thing yesterday was the lead dev saying "I don't understand where all these bad reviews came from. Everyone tells me how much they like the game"

then he could look at this very active thread to see oh people literally can't play the game

[willow pier]

I had low expectations coming into this but holy crap this is just embarassing

They have a Feedback and Suggestions channel for their COMMUNITY so why don’t they use it??

[floral ibex]

I'm impressed they managed to reach lower than my already low expectations

[willow pier]

At this rate 1.0 just looks like a joke

I had more fun being capable of playing Legacy than I do playing this hot sack of garbage

[pallid parrot]

That's what an inner circle of Yes-men will do for someone.

The game has potential but it's clear the pve players are being prioritised.

[floral ibex]

if PVE was prioritized, there would be more PVE things to do than sit on a nest and starve

[pallid parrot]

Ah right they can't even eat players there and there's barely anything to eat on the server..

The creator of the thread just received a 3 day ban

Looks like this is what our response is :/

[floral ibex]

ah. Same old same old. Right there with the censored discussion that got deleted providing evidence of all the censorship

[pallid parrot]

Gotta be careful with what we say

Even though what we want is to literally just play the game

[floral ibex]

I don't care honestly. If they ban me, then it gives me more juicy screenshots to post to reddits and steam pages

[carmine wharf]

Free the homie Kindred

[viral shoal]

I've been saying Legacy is better than 1.0 lol

[lone notch]

Pulling a scomo

[pallid parrot]

Quite literally, no other suggestion has come close to this one.

[floral ibex]

there was an old bio thread that did. Oh look. There's more bio threads after. What a surprise. Just as much of a surprise as people not playing the game because they keep getting kicked every 5 minutes while leaving their dragon afk to die to a free kill

[neon coral]

Or dying to a scrab while trying to kill it and getting kicked next to it 😂

[viral shoal]

No way lmfao

[neon coral]

The sad part of the downvotes is 1. Trolls, 2. People enjoying a free chance to grow and nest with most big clans not playing, and 3. Afraid the removal or upping the ping cap will allow for "sussy" behaviour to happen.

Sad part is, desync already occurs on the server. AND those desyncing generally DONT get kicked. Its people who are growing, nesting, in spawn menu even, and sometimes just flying around that get kicked.

Honest to god I would rather deal with someone force desyncing over the amount of people being kicked every few minutes. At least I can report said player and they can get in trouble or smthg.

(Even then, with the games current state you cant tell if someones forcing desync or not being EVERYONE desyncs now...) i watch people leave a cave and their dragon model stays stuck in the cave flying into a wall or the ceiling continuously.. while they are actually outside above it flying high.

Its how a clanmate of mine died on an ss, cuz an fs flamed that stuck model and while he was no where near it, he was killed from it lmao

[neon coral]

Oh yeah. Lotta times its happened to a clan mate LOL

As someone who enjoys game development, I really dont understand why people go against something so game breaking. It is obvious that this ping cap is not doing as it was intended. Instead, its doing the opposite. The game itself is now becoming unplayable.

Jao needs to look into this ping cap to see if its to do with the coding itself, or maybe just up it idk.

[viral shoal]

Lost too many FS’s in redwoods to them getting stuck into a tree and teleporting somewhere else due to the desync. SMH

[floral ibex]

I've noticed myself and a lot of people get desync kicked when we didn't even reach the ping cap. My ping rarely goes above 200, yet I get kicked every 5 minutes or so. The desync kick is targeting lag spikes more than high ping. Naturally that means anyone living in the boonies or Australia won't be playing the game

[solar wyvern]

I’ve had to save a hatchie from the evil crab they desynced on 😂

[obsidian jetty]

[neon coral]

FOR REAL. I've lost so many near dead IR/FS to that as well. Don't even get me started on SS 😂

[neon coral]

Oh yeah, which is why i say something is messed up with it. The ping cap should have been thoroughly flushed out and tested before beinglaunched into the game...

Imo the people being kicked aren't hackers or desyncing. Stop being dumb and starting drama in a suggestion or I'll get a mod in here to remove you 🙂

[primal crown]

I Know that

but people love to abuse the game and use hacks LIKE TAGS and u know what im talking about

[neon coral]

Then give actual feedback ❤️

[primal crown]

just a side note

[neon coral]

Cuz right now you're just starting drama in a suggestion instead of helping the issue.

[primal crown]

which is why a lot of us are saying noooo to increase ping cap

[neon coral]

Akatrolling. Because the ping cap has nothing to do with whatever you're mentioning. I.e, you're not giving actual feedback and instead stirring up drama.

[obsidian jetty]

You're so convinced to calling us trolls for voting no, but we genuinely don't want the ping cap to be raised.

[neon coral]

I mean your clanmate said yall were trolling sooo... blameyour clanmate ekko.

Either way, give actual feed back and not bring drama in here.

[obsidian jetty]

I for one, would much rather enjoy having people abuse exploits OUT of the server. 😄

[primal crown]

Tell them add anti cheat first

then increase ping cap

[neon coral]

I wish they would. I don't like hacks either.

[obsidian jetty]

[neon coral]

I have been able to play asd for once because of the supposed lack of hacks/tags.. hearing they are back has once again made me fear playing asd

[fringe plinth]

Main point I would like my friends to not get kicked every 10 seconds so we can play together!!

I want ALL YALL to argue with @shy wind who is getting kicked literally every 10 seconds, cannot even play the game, takes 10 hours (actually) to grow an FS. And Ark and OW run FINE on her computer so it's obviously NOT the wifi it's the game. I cannot believe y'all

[obsidian jetty]

Maybe that's because you're not on the receiving end. Crazy theory.

[primal crown]

if this happens will only allow people to play with ping and zoom around the map

not helping anyone

[trim lake]

lmao hound hacks XD

[pallid parrot]

There is an an anticheat already implemented in the game, ping cap or no ping cap so that wouldn't be allowed

So your point is moot.

[fringe plinth]

ON GODDDD

[primal crown]

right so what about tags

[neon coral]

I've been on the receiving end so idk what you'reon about. Again, you and your clan mate needa chill with the non helpful remarks and actually give feedback. Thanks 🙂

[pallid parrot]

I just find it funny that the only clan that doesn't get desynced from the game is happy about it cause there's no one to fight

[fringe plinth]

Also please read @obsidian jetty @primal crown

[primal crown]

I have a clip I can post in general right now if u wan t

[pallid parrot]

Any form of hacking is automatically covered by the anticheat that was implemented, do you not understand that?

[neon coral]

the people getting affected aren't even the issue

it has been saidNUMEROUS times

[primal crown]

huhhh what anti cheat

sure people using speed

[fringe plinth]

Great they are ignoring my well made point ☺️

[pallid parrot]

The integrated anticheat that comes with UE5

[primal crown]

but not other cheats

[pallid parrot]

No one is still speedhacking

Forgive me but you're talking out your rear now

[fringe plinth]

Main point I would like my friends to not get kicked every 10 seconds so we can play together!!

I want ALL YALL to argue with kiki who is getting kicked literally every 10 seconds, cannot even play the game, takes 10 hours (actually) to grow an FS. And Ark and OW run FINE on her computer so it's obviously NOT the wifi it's the game. I cannot believe y'all

Repost for imorphus and ekko!!!!

[floral ibex]

the ping cap isn't even preventing the hackers as you have seen yourself and been on the receiving end. All the ping cap does is prevent regular people from playing the game. It's not even doing what it was intended to do. The problem still exists

[pallid parrot]

like on any server even the ones who enable 800 ping

[fringe plinth]

ONG TINY BACON. FACTS

[pallid parrot]

no one speedhacks

[neon coral]

Course they are, they don't care sadl

[obsidian jetty]

Not ignoring, just knowing I've already said my piece ping cap aside. 😂

[primal crown]

nvm

[pallid parrot]

It's unreal engine 5

All unreal engine 4 cheats will not work regardless, that's common sense

[fringe plinth]

Well this debunks your wifi theory AND proved that even innocent people can't play the game. You are wrong

[primal crown]

no point in explaining to u

[neon coral]

Then post a suggestion for better anti cheat. As it stands, HOUND is looking real smart by coming into a suggestion and stirring up drama instead of posting actual feedback.

[pallid parrot]

Because you've found someone who's educated

[neon coral]

Like for real, this suggestion is to help players NOT JUST IN ANBU btw to play the game.

Even random people not from dragon king are suffering

[primal crown]

clearly not enough

[fringe plinth]

ON. GOD.

[pallid parrot]

There's a reason that this game has lost 2900 daily players

[floral ibex]

I would suggest making a new suggestion then if you're concerned with the hackers. This is specifically about ping caps. If you have no input for the ping caps, then you should switch to a different discussion

[pallid parrot]

2900 hackers right?

According to you

[fringe plinth]

Preach @primal crown

[neon coral]

HOUND has literally proven themselves to just be trolls at this point. If you want things to change, MAKE. THE. SUGGESTION.

I will support any suggestion for hack removal. But coming in here and starting drama is not it.

[fringe plinth]

Nearly 100 upvotes on both suggestions I'm glad the actual player base sees the issue ❤️

[obsidian jetty]

ping cap isn't the issue.

[pallid parrot]

Hackers are scum in any game and do ruin them however

[primal crown]

ty

[pallid parrot]

I believe players not being able to log onto a game they play

is equally as bad

Especially on a game that literally has anticheat

Might not be a good one but it works

[fringe plinth]

It clearly is otherwise kiki and my friends wouldn't be getting kicked every 10 seconds

I have already proven it's not the wifi it's the game

[primal crown]

all im saying the reason we said no to this is because people will abuse the increasee in PING

[neon coral]

The ping cap is ONE issue, ekko. It is keeping players that arent in any way your "hackers" or "desyncers" from playing.

[obsidian jetty]

It's called poor Optimization of the game itself.

[pallid parrot]

It is the only solution considering they do not have a real solution.

[neon coral]

Make a suggestion to improve anti cheat.

[floral ibex]

I can understand coming in here to troll @obsidian jetty. It is honestly more fun to see the drama in the discord than to play the game itself

[pallid parrot]

If they could optimize it, they would have done so already.

[fringe plinth]

Thatsfor anticheat and you can get revived for massive desync

[fringe plinth]

Including the ping cap, which is kicking everyone every 10 seconds and makes the game unplayable

[primal crown]

lmao, it has to be massiiiiivve

[pallid parrot]

Not only that but increasing ping limiter has been proven to help fix this

In short if you are against it being fixed it is because you are scared of losing fights

In a world where you cannot 20v1 someone

[primal crown]

or they'll say well you werent far enough to consider that desync

[obsidian jetty]

Okay then explain The Isle, can run servers at 100+ ping and still keeps players in the server. POOR OPTIMIZATION of DoD.

[neon coral]

Okay but what about people getting kicked in a fight and lose their dragons with NO chance for restore?

At least desync you have a chance.

[pallid parrot]

You're comparing a honda civic stock to a mercedes gla

[neon coral]

DoD needs optimization, yes, but again coming in here trolling is not it. Giving actual feedback, sure 🙂

[pallid parrot]

They don't know how to optimize it or they would have done so already

[obsidian jetty]

I don't speak cars

[neon coral]

It just makes yalls clan look worse tbh.

[pallid parrot]

look em up

[floral ibex]

I agree there. DoD is very poorly optimized. Until then, they should remove the cap until they can get it to work properly so people can actually play the game. Literally can't play it with ping cap

[pallid parrot]

This is something I can stand behind

It quite literally makes sense

No one is saying increasing ping should be permanent

[fringe plinth]

Isle is in general a better running game, it can ALSO be optimization but you need to understand players aren't gonna get kicked for being 10000 ping for .5 seconds on the isle because that's ridiculous.
DoD however you get a ping spike for .5 seconds you get KICKED. Either because you're alt tabbing, you're streaming, you're watching a stream, you're vcing. RIDICULOUS because the ping cap isn't working as intended and it's just kicking ppl for no REAL reason

[pallid parrot]

There just needs to be a fix right now

[primal crown]

It sucks I get it, either way all of our arguments are valid.

[neon coral]

No one wants hacks. Player count has dropped SIGNIFICANTLY due to people being unable to play on MANY servers, not just dragon king. So what it was someone from anbu who made the suggestion? if its to better help the GAME, thats all that should matter.

[neon coral]

Arguments providing actual feedback, sure. But not stirring up drama in a suggestion.

[pallid parrot]

2 weeks out of the doors of release from a server people couldn't get into after trying for 2 hours to it going down to as low as 3/100. It's common sense.

[solar wyvern]

It sucks for dragonking pop, but I’d rather my ss shots hit 20% of the time than let more people in 😭

[neon coral]

As it stands, DoD's player count is so low it's.. depressing.

That right there is a sign something is wrong. What's wrong is the massive amount of people being kicked when they are literally doing nothing.

And you can't say "oh they desync" no. Players who don't hack/rarely pvp on other servers are experiencing this.

[fringe plinth]

Not to mention the majority of the player base agrees with us

[neon coral]

That's a selfish way to see a game. I get it, but it's not a great way to think. That just ends up with only you or whatever clan you're in on the server and then what. You do nothing except sit there bored xD

People don't even seem to realize that the lower count may be nice but once there's no one on the server to fight, the game dies. Its just boring.

[neon coral]

Mhmm

[floral ibex]

just an FYI, I know ping cap is actively being worked on. Jao was asking others about who was experiencing desync issues in the Patreon chat today. As long as we can provide valuable feedback of our experiences, it will get fixed regardless of what conversations happen in here

[solar wyvern]

And then I go to molten mt which is the only full pvp server to play this poorly optimized mess

[neon coral]

Amazing to hear, ngl. If he can fix whatever is wrong with it, I 100% support.

[fringe plinth]

That's amazing to hear omg
I'm glad Jao realizes the issue

[neon coral]

I don't like force desyncers or hackers. I just want people to enjoy the game. More people = more pvp experience = less boredom/more fun

[solar wyvern]

My only point is there’s no point to pvp if your attacks don’t register. If somebody’s ping is spiking their character should remain where the server thinks the are, and their attack shouldn’t hit where the client thinks they are

[floral ibex]

I was the only one that replied about desync issues though I wish he would've done a ping or something to get more people's opinions instead of relying on opportune people at the time

[pallid parrot]

The hitboxes in general are poor to begin with

I'd rather be able to have my friends log into the game so we can play together than to try growing alone (if i dont get disconnected 10 times) then get landed on by the only clan on the entire server that doesn't desync

[shy wind]

fr the few people that havnt got an issue and aint been kicked at all... like why say anything you dont undersdtand what alot of us are going through i cant help do anything like im done with the game now ive given my accounts to some friends to help updtat/fight as i quite literally cant do a thing.

[obsidian jetty]

I have also experienced being kicked, but. I'm just a troll.

[shy wind]

people are abusing desync anyway from what ive seen/heard... like people are desyncing so much and yet SOMEHOW are not getting kicked due to ping yet here i am not even flOWN AROUND on the new map yet make it make sense fr

[shy wind]

when the update first came out i was just like its whatever but within the first 24 hours it got so bad that i literally said that im not gonna be able to play. i tried to grow an IR and without joking AT ALL it took me 5 hours to get THE SAME DrAGON from baby to 60 juvie... then someone else came on my account and grew the rest to use it in a fight.. like its SO bad for me i cannot play at all, the few times i can grow an asd ive just let someone else fight on it coz id just crash and die in a dumb way which is a waste of my time growing just to crash and die on it.
and the people who know im not from the US and im from the UK ive tried uk servers and even on them im crashing bad.

[pallid parrot]

I'm from the US, have a good pc and fibre-optic internet and still desync

[shy wind]

plus i want to play with my clan..

like if the cap aint doing what its said it should just get rid off it till its working how it should??

[neon coral]

The desync IS pain. I will agree 100% on that. I wasn't able to kill an IR with my clan mates that was in red hp due to it X_X

Not to mention, the fact that the game considers everyone hitbox to be a tposing dragon, so you can hit players on the ground from far away as the game believes its the wings spread out..

[shy wind]

like why are yall making alot of ur players just give up on the game.. like how do i get a refund on a game that i have like 700 hours on each account?!!

[trim lake]

rip

[unreal moth]

Behave it's a feedback thread sir

[rocky oyster]

today please

[neon coral]

I just want my silly dragon game to be fun and for everyone to enjoy/play it 😭

So many things needs improvement.. I hope that it all will be worked on in due time

[robust spruce]

This entire situation is ridiculous and annoying. Point of having people with bad ping not play so that desync isn't OUT OF CONTROL, and yet we have everyone desyncing one way or another, while some abuse it by making it worse to use it to their own advantage, and the game not being as optimized as it could be yet which makes it x10 worse. Truly why am I playing this game with lower graphics than I would on current Isle Evrima, and I have issues in this game and not in The Isle Evrima.

[neon coral]

I've seen people from all clans go to redwoods to do stuff like that cuz flying thru trees cause people to desync and poof away

[shy wind]

this happens yet they dont get kicked? the ping cap is useless from what im seeing.. THAT dragon should have been kicked and problem sovled

[neon coral]

The desync needs fixing 110%

[primal crown]

anyways gotta delete it before i get a warning

[neon coral]

fr

[shy wind]

like im jsut sat there on a hatchy and i get kicked coz my pings spikes for .7 seconds

[neon coral]

or people legit in spawn menu after joining the server to be kicked 😭

[robust spruce]

Miss u Pookie

[shy wind]

this aint happened to me yet or i would have raged

[neon coral]

the amount of times I've heard about people being kicked without actually being on a dragon

[shy wind]

miss u too 💜

[neon coral]

Is crazy

[neon coral]

LOL it happened to me xD

[shy wind]

oof

[neon coral]

ONE time though. Others that suffer a lot has had it happen numerous times

I've only been kicked twice so far since 1.0 launch

[shy wind]

its just dumb in general like at this point i would LITERALLY rather have people desync and live on one dragon JUST so me and like half my friends can actually play the game... like at the very least i can report it and they can maybe do something

[trim lake]

that fact that u end up loosing ur dragon that u have spent growing hours for just to get desync and killed by other people is what is fustrating to me

[neon coral]

Same xD I'd suffer desync flaming for my clan if need be

[robust spruce]

It'd be nice to know the specs on peoples computers as well as exactly what they were doing/what was going on. It would make this whole thread a lot better.

[shy wind]

this happened to me and that was the last time i was on dod.. spent a ROUGH 4 hours painfully growing an ss just to desync the second i get up in the air and i crashed and watched a fs on a friends discord stream munch my helpless ss

[latent briar]

what is hound even yapping about, increase the ping cap until the game is more optimized so people can actually play the game and once the people that are just simply playing the game aren't getting kicked for no reason or cuz of a small spike you can bring 300 ping cap back, or leave it at 400 just like on Blood Moon. Some of u acting like the entire server isn't desync anyway WITH the ping cap. It won't change anything except for the fact that people won't be getting kicked for no reason

[pallid parrot]

You do not understand the situation at all then, this is eliminating 90% of the players on pvp servers from even playing the game.

[neon coral]

it's been proven its not specs/where you live.

people with good comps, 30 min from the server host, sitting stillgrowing get kicked

[robust spruce]

This whole thread just started off with the complaints part (which isn't invalid) but wouldn't it help to know the specs of who is experiencing the issue? and what it is exactly that's going on? As in a video of the experience.

[shy wind]

tbh at this point just get rid off it completely till its 100% fixed and WORKING how it should

[trim lake]

its got nothing to do with specs

[pallid parrot]

Scroll up, I posted the pc setups of 10 or more people with pcs that will be able to run high end games on good graphics all complaining about how they couldn't get on.

[shy wind]

i cant record as i think dod would send my computer out the window

[robust spruce]

Who said I didn't understand? All I'm saying is that it would make the thread a lot better. To know who's experiencing the issues with what specs, and internet (wired or not).

[shy wind]

i have to exit absoultely everything other then discord and steam so i can even LOAD into the game. if i tried to record i think satan would eat my pc from under

[robust spruce]

I can play EU servers on a game like Val and be stable. All I'm saying is that it's more than just the ping cap that's a problem.

[pallid parrot]

holy

[rocky oyster]

I know

[primal crown]

umm somethings wrong whats ur CPU

[robust spruce]

Could you like just put it as in one big thing rather than message bit by bit

[rocky oyster]

or maybe, something is wrong with the game?

[pallid parrot]

1.2 seconds of scrolling

[primal crown]

i got no issues with running it

[rocky oyster]

I dont care

[robust spruce]

My entire point was to make this thread more effective for the dev who's going to be looking at it rather than looking at a bunch of complaints

[pallid parrot]

you got no issues but 3300 player count daily to 200-300 daily

[primal crown]

why u being like that answer the question

[pallid parrot]

i guess screw the 3000 players that dipped

just cause you don't have issues

[rocky oyster]

what question? you gave me a statment and I responded with "I dont care" and I'll do it again

[pallid parrot]

I'm not even making these figures up either

It's literally 3000 player loss.

[blissful tulip]

Assuming the playerbase dropped solely due to a ping cap is disingenuous

[neon coral]

this my setup, only been kicked twice 😛

[unreal moth]

Imooo be nice

[neon coral]

idk if my setup is good or not.

[rocky oyster]

you said "Ummmmmm something is wrong with your pc then" that is another statment

[pallid parrot]

Are you having a laugh?

[primal crown]

brooo whats ur CPU

[fringe plinth]

Okay did hound folks read ALL of what kiki said?

[pallid parrot]

I said due to a number of game-breaking issues

[rocky oyster]

noneya, you know it?

[pallid parrot]

Not being able to play the game is a clear major one

Being able to play the game, I'm sure we would not have seen such a loss

[crude forum]

If you're unwilling to say what your CPU you cannot blame it on the game. You can't have one and not the other (i.e. bad CPU and good ram). You need to have both for it to run effectively. If you also have trash internet and that that also doesn't help your case.
You not listing what your CPU is just screams "I have a trash CPU but i'm blaming it on the game waaaa"

[trim lake]

my pc is way better and i get kicked every 10 seconds XD

[pallid parrot]

In player count

[unreal moth]

If you two are gonna be sassy go out of a feedback channel you smell anyways

All i hear is a baby crying and blaming the game about you not having a good enough CPU. The devs listed what you should have for the game to run effectively

[rocky oyster]

idc what you hear

[fringe plinth]

Bro he literally just posted his cpu? Chill LMAO

[rocky oyster]

the devs also made the game unplayable

yea the ping cap sucks man

[primal crown]

lmao

[fringe plinth]

Get rid of ping cap, making gameplay difficult and its doing nothing but NOT letting us play the game

[rocky oyster]

eh not that funny

[neon coral]

Or at least FIX the ping cap as whatever it was intended to do it is not currently doing.

[fringe plinth]

Yeah like Kiki said, remove it until its fixed otherwise the game will stay dead

[trim lake]

nah get rid of it

[pallid parrot]

Explain to me why I get desynced

Right now if possible

[rocky oyster]

I have theory

[pallid parrot]

Or can someone tell me if my PC is too bad to run this game but will run every other game with zero problems.

[primal crown]

also are u hard wired or WIFI

[rocky oyster]

Imorpshous can do that for you

[fringe plinth]

this should definitely be able to run the game perfectly LMAO

i live in dallas as well

next to the tower

[shy wind]

bro my pc is 4grand so it should fine too

[fringe plinth]

Wifi doesn't fully matter in this scenario, because people with really good wifi still get desynced kicked

[shy wind]

i dunno what things is in it tho

[pallid parrot]

your specs will be better than mine then

[crude forum]

Could be wifi issues.

[pallid parrot]

mine only cost me about 2.3k to build

[inner knot]

i breathe wrong n i get booted

[shy wind]

ye ai dunno how to see whats in it someone else built it for me

[pallid parrot]

How would it be wifi issues if i quite literally said it's wired

[fringe plinth]

Yeah so that being said yall's pcs should not be causing yall to get desync kicked

[pallid parrot]

and fibre-optic

[primal crown]

then the issue is not the ping cap

[pallid parrot]

So it's my wifi but I can play every other game with no problems

[primal crown]

idk the game is broken atm

[robust spruce]

That's all I was suggesting this thread be more about. 😅 It makes this thread that much better, rather than having people try to verbally insult each other and grow more frustrated.

[inner knot]

prolly why dragonking is dead

[pallid tinsel]

yall just sucking up atp

[pallid parrot]

Why would wifi when I don't use wifi be an issue only on one specific game

[fringe plinth]

It is LMAO, it's the game kicking you for ping spikes and also simply for no reason

[crude forum]

Wifi spikes ping. If it detects anything else there's something wrong with your stuff like not my problem to fix or look into

[olive cipher]

Thank you all so much for your feedback, while some of the info will surely be useful to the dev them, this thread has gone off topic too many times and will now be closed where it is. Again, thank you for the feedback! 🤍
