Massive server lag

from Offworld Forums

It is impossible form me to play online due to server lag. I don't have the best internet, but I will never have this much trouble while playing any other game. I have heard others say they have the same problem. Are there any fixes in the mix from Mohawk's end?

Yes I've experienced the same, not playable for me with 8 players

Same for me, 8 players unplayable, 4-6 players playable until lvl 4...

And I guess nobody wants to play 1v1 !

Hope it will be improved in the next update, very frustrating not to be able to play vs real players.

Netcode aside, the game has no dedicated servers atm, the server is the host. So if you play with a host in another continent (which you have no way to know because at the moment there is no ping function in the lobbies), you will have significant lag.

I'm in the US, and I too had a lot of trouble joining games on multiplayer today.  Also, I could successfully host games before, but I don't think anyone could see or join my game.

We're having people look into it.

Thanks for the feedback!
