same exact thing is happening to me in normals and QP, despite my internet connection being stable and strong. seems to come and go on a day by day basis

#

Are you guys playing with a teammate in the same Squad in ranks? I've seen that most of the times this kind of thing happens to me is when I'm playing with a friend

#

Rn for example I'm playing solo queu, but a few hours ago i was playing with two friends and my connection was horrible

polar sinew
#

it's so bad today for some reason lol

#

fwiw, no other big bandwidth users, happens in solo queue and playing with friends, QP and normals are affected (have not played comp for fear of bringing my team down), time of day doesn't seem to make a difference

I've been getting this too. Had another thread going about it for a while. Happens in all sorts of conditions. Some senior players told me it's probably packet loss. Out of curiosity, are y'all on ethernet or wifi?

This is happening to me too. I play on the Switch and use wifi. The dock doesn't seem to have a energetic cable, plus the cable plug-in is heavily messed up.

grizzled thistle
#

picked up a cable today and it's making all the difference

So something I have noticed with myself as well as a friend, we are using ethernet cables, but we have Verizon 5G as our service provider. We both seem to have intermittent issues like this, and when I went to a different friend's house with my same computer, I had little to no issues. I'm fairly confident that Verizon plays a factor into at least my issues. Not sure if anyone else out there has noticed anything like that.

#

i'm on wifi, but i never get lag in other games. i might try a VPN, since i've heard other people say that helps?

#

what's strange about it, to me, is the fact that everyone else is moving smoothly whenever it happens, but that could just be me not understanding how online games function

(not a big computers guy, so please forgive if my explanation is a tiny bit off)

polar sinew
#

mmmm, that makes sense to me, yeah. shame wired isn't really an option for me ;~;

grizzled thistle
#

yeah, I was just in the Knowledge Gap tourney and had to grab a 50ft cable during my lunch break at work to make it happen. Did wonders for me though

polar sinew
#

are there other ways to help with packet loss? running a 100ft cable across my apartment really isn't feasible

oh shit now i suddenly have that bug too so annoying

carmine crystal
#

Been getting this since the first patch of official release. Was hoping it had been fixed since it made me quit. I was really excited for the battle pass since I wanted the zen skin but the game is unplayable like this. I assume it's a wi-fi issue but like others I can't run a massive cable through to the other room. Plus like- if it's a wi-fi issue how do switch and phone players manage if this has been going on so long???

polar sinew
#

i've run multiple speedtests that include packet loss, and none of them found a single thing. it's also way worse today than it's ever been (probably not a coincidence), so i have to assume it's an issue with the server that's out of my hands, i guess :<

#

yeah, it's. unplayably bad today. this really feels like the servers just, not receiving the packets that i am sending

formal mountain
#

its been happening to me the past couple days. ( excuse the audio i was in discord with friends, mute if dont wanna hear a lil swearing)
its lead to me getting kicked out and getting the leavers penalty and its been basically every match

carmine crystal
#

whoa that one is crazy severe I've never seen it that bad before

formal mountain
carmine crystal
#

yeah 1% packet loss is nothing if you actually look it up

#

it certainly shouldn't be causing this kind of thing

#

1-2.5% is considered acceptable so for it to totally just derail the game is super weird

polar sinew
#

oh that's way worse than anything i've seen, wow

#

i'm tempted to suggest that that's a separate issue entirely

carmine crystal
#

sadly this has been going on since release and still hasn't been fixed so idk if it ever will

#

It's why they implemented the packet loss % thing into the game to try and figure out more details about it

#

But idk if it even works cause it happened to me last game and I had 40-60ms and my packet loss was shown as 0% and would very occasionally (like once every 3-4 minutes despite me rubberbanding all around the map) jump to like 4% for 1 second then go right back to 0% so idk how it even measures packet loss

polar sinew
#

one thing that's concerning to me is that it only started like 2-3 weeks ago. never had a single connection issue for the first, like, month that i was playing

carmine crystal
#

it seems to do that tbh

#

In the old discussion of this you'd have people come in like "hey this is suddenly happening to me too"

warm igloo
#

my hell

#

this is one of my worst cases

#

but the point still stands

polar sinew
#

tried a VPN to the west coast, all it did was double my ping :<

full oasis
#

it happens to me too even after with brand new PC and brand new modem/wifi FTTC connection

#

xd i guess that who expirience this bug is just doomed for life

#

its not a problem of the user, but a problem of the game

#

we cant do nothing until it gets fixed

#

and i even tried repairing the game files from steam

#

didnt work

#

(this started happening to me months ago the new season)

mystic sentinel
#

feels like random people just get selected each patch lol

#

it's also worth posting any associated logs to be sure its the same thing

#

at least when I get it my logs look like this

#

even though the ingame packet loss thing didn't pick anything up

polar sinew
#

i don't know where to access logs like those. the in-game packet loss number does pick up when it happens, at least

mystic sentinel
#

#

that has the file path and explanation 💜

polar sinew
#

ohhh, i see i see, ty! EstelleComfy

mystic sentinel
#

Ideally you want the whole "Saved" folder or at least the "Logs" folder, some people post "SaveGames" by accident instead

#

so for me it's like this

image.png
polar sinew
#

should i upload the whole folder to here, or just specific files?

#

i do not have the technical knowledge to pick out the relevant parts of this ;~;

mystic sentinel
#

tbh just the most recent log file would do if you havent logged in since the session with the bug stuff

#

if you filted by date modified in "Logs" the most recent one just called OmegaStrikers.log should be it

#

rather than one of the backups

#

that is just a text file of everything that happened when you played, including any messed up position errors

polar sinew
#

right, makes sense

#

logs of my last session, was just running around in practice (i don't have it in me to play actual games right now lol). still had plenty of issues

📎 OmegaStrikers.log
mystic sentinel
#

ah yeah looks like you had something similar at 22:35 as juli, 22:37 as the umbrella guy a whole bunch, etc

#

the only solace I can give is it does come and go a bit in my experience, some days are much worse for no obvious reason

#

plus the devs know about it and they're fantastic peeps SoniiSalute

#

I'm sure there will be a breakthrough soon JulietteCopium

this is what i got Junomegaflushed

holy shit you poor guy lmao

#

feeling doomed

#

i hope it gets fixed

#

ASAP

mystic sentinel
#

oh my god

#

you have had some real stinkers

#

that's so far away

full oasis
#

ye but i have packets loss only with omega

#

.-.

mystic sentinel
#

yeah same for everyone else basically

#

the bug is packet loss with this game specifically even when it doesn't show up in the packetloss onscreen readout they added just to try and analyse this bug

#

It's rough for sure

#

put all my friends off until it's fixed :(

#

It's why I haunt these threads asking people for logs lmao

#

but at least in my case some days it's pretty much fine just happens at random

#

does mean I tend to avoid ranked now though EraThisIsFine

#

I bought odypoints to get the battle pass hoping that maybe it'd be fixed and now they're just sorta sat there unless I get lucky with good games

full oasis
#

LMAO

#

is the bug fix team already on it to fix this one? or if we already know something

mystic sentinel
#

It started happening for me the patch they added the orb awakenings I think, like 3 months ago

full oasis
#

ye same

mystic sentinel
#

yeah so they have known about it for a while, and they added the packet loss readout to try and work out what was up

#

they said the team was aware of it when I had a ticket back then

#

but I haven't seen much from them directly addressing it in these threads since the patch before packet loss readout was added where they said "don't worry about logs until packet loss is tracked"

full oasis
#

i could try reach out to Kisu when he goes for a stream and ask him if he knows something about this one and if he can give any updates on it

#

(Kisu is a bug fixer dev for Odyssey)

mystic sentinel
#

considering how many posts there are about it, especially since the big new patch, and how many posts there are in this old long running massive thread about it

#

they at least know it's an issue and I would assume they just don't want to address it until they have a concrete fix maybe?

full oasis
#

having a micropatch full of bug fixes will be more worth for me than a micropatch that adds more contet to the game tbh

mystic sentinel
#

it's just something really hard to pin down since it's on all platforms, multiple regions, direct ethernet connections etc

polar sinew
#

yeah, i find it hard to believe that they're not working on this

full oasis
#

yeye i can imagine

mystic sentinel
#

like if it was just EU or something, it'd be like "oh must be the EU servers"

polar sinew
#

hence my consistent returning to this thread to update on what has and hasn't helped

mystic sentinel
#

or just on Switch or something

#

or like, honest to goodness wifi packetloss that shows up on readouts and would be fixed with hardwired connection

#

but it seems super hard to find stuff to connect the dots at least from my outside perspective

#

I've only ever gotten involved in this sorta stuff when I've had issues with tf2/league/omega strikers and done a dive into my settings and my ISP's route to the servers etc

#

so I'm just a casual trying my best

polar sinew
#

a friend suggested a traceroute, but i can't find the server's IP address anywhere to do that

mystic sentinel
#

yeah idk, I used to do that for league but their IPs are public

#

can just google those

#

Idk enough to know how to try for omega

#

ah tbf looks like it is in the logs but idk if they want us messing with it lol idk if it's ok

#

perhaps time I reopen ticket and try ask that stuff direct idk

full oasis
#

i mean we would just use it on the cmd with the ''ping -n 50 [enter ip]'' just to test it

#

isnt harmful for anyone

mystic sentinel
#

the thing that's confusing though is if it's the route to server how can it be like, happening to NA and EU etc but again idk I'm not a professional

#

ok this is out of my depth I think lol

#

so they use amazon servers for this game

#

and trying to traceroute fo one of the servers you guys used for your buggy games just rerouted me to one of amazon's NA servers and then timed me out

full oasis
#

a h

mystic sentinel
#

which is presumably something amazon does to random unauthorised or otherwise orphaned connections

#

but would have to ask someone that knows what they're doing to be sure lol

full oasis
#

for what i know they are trying their best to fix it, and should be more playable and more uncommon to encounter this bug

#

still i have it every game i had tonight kekw

polar sinew
#

i haven't had a single smooth round in like, 2 weeks lol

#

there may be some exceptions that involve, like, near-instant goals

#

but any round that lasts more than like 8 seconds has some stinky in it

flat oxide
#

is it just me, or has the packet loss issue gotten much worse now?

full oasis
#

this morning I didn't expirienced any packet loss but last game I did couple of minutes ago a had 2 light packet loss

#

yesterday night it was unplayable for me kekw, it's just different from people to people

carmine crystal
#

yeah it was a lot worse for me this mornign than yesterday night

polar sinew
#

it's been worse during peak hours in my experience

warm igloo
devout sundial
#

Has been happening almost every game

#

Rubber banding with zero displayed packet loss

#

Gets really bad at night

carmine crystal
#

there's defo something going on there because there's no way you're losing 90% of your packets

tiny sable
#

Same here mine is not nearly as bad but it goes up to 10% sometimes and it kills me

full oasis
#

the thing is that is too much frequent and the only thing i can do is dealing with it

tiny sable
#

Yeah not sure what it can be checked my internal specs my Pc isnt even on 40% capacity with the game and thats with stuff running

#

Got an ethernet cable the whole thing just no clue

#

I shall forever be stuck in High bronze it seems lol

full oasis
#

until odyssey bug fix team doesn't fix this server problem

warm igloo
#

i pressed strike and primary maybe 20 times before one them came out and it still came out maybe a full second later

#

then again its probably also due to my internet being bad and me being on laptop

full oasis
#

im loving it

#

so much that im gonna uninstall omega strikers for how much unplayable it is

#

literally i cannot move my character anymore gg

carmine crystal
#

yeah it really is just the most infuriating bug i've seen in any game

#

I just quick play my weeklies/dailies as fast as I can while trying not to be too much of a burden because I can't play comp like this

polar sinew
#

i haven't opened the game since day 1 of the season because it's just not fun with this going on

#

If y'all didn't see my above message, if you are able to access it, ethernet makes a complete difference for me. Forgot to plug the cable in before playing earlier and it was a nightmare. Plugged it in, no more stutters

carmine crystal
#

sadly not an option for a lot of people

#

some people rent or live with families

polar sinew
#

given everything i've tried, and the isolated nature of the issue, i don't know if i have much faith in ethernet even if it were an option :x

manic laurel
#

This was one of the worst cases yet. Every game I play has at least 2-3 rubber-bands.

carmine crystal
#

that happened to me the other day but it was the splash map

#

saw the big cannon charge up but was like psh it's fine I can just walk out of it and now I am dead

polar sinew
#

kinda insane how much synergy the laser has with buggy servers
