That happens to me with Hibernate...but only on my dominater. Yea it sucks, I click it, I see no ice on my toon, so I click it again, and then it goes grey for its 2 minute recharge. I've not noticed the horrible lag you were speaking of besides hibernate on my dom

This game has SUCKED since issue 8

So as usual, a bunch of new bugs are introduced, since they did fix the mez bug. They've never been able to fix something without breaking 3 other things. So whatever, we've learned to accept it. But this one is just absurd.

If you saw my post on the subject, they didn't really fix the mez bug. Or rather they did, but broke it in a new and interesting way for clicky mez protection.
I have experienced the same thing with the powers not showing activation correctly, and it has caused a few unnecessary defeats. Seems like we need a few more patches just to get this issue to a level of playability that we expect.
I'm definitely noticing the Dominator Hibernate not showing up graphically--could this actually be a bug? I have been noticing it for awhile, when I'm playing a Dom, and when I'm attacking the Dom. I never really thought anything of it and just attributed it to lag, but now that I think about it, it has usually been Dominators (maybe every time?) where the actual toon goes into Hibernate with the stance, but the block of ice rarely shows up until a couple seconds after, or even at all.

Glad I'm not the only one. Any time I bring it up the insane lag in RV, nobody says anything in support. Was getting the feeling I was the only one.
Btw I didn't see your post about the mez...can you link it?
What mez bug ? havn't been on cuz of tech probs
Active Defenses bug.
In short, mezs will suppress Active Defenses as if it was a toggle, but since it's not a toggle it never comes back up. It just drops and won't grant KB protection until it fires again.
Pretty much game breaking for Shield sets.
LOL!
That's just wonderful.
Also, the lag is seriously driving me to the point of wanting to cancel. Because my game is flat out unplayable. 3-5 second delay on everything I do, and half the time it doesn't even activate. And my internets are perfectly fine other than this game.

[/ QUOTE ]It's not just you, it's even worst if i get to close to a group, but it's only during peek times for me. If it's not real hectic i can still play, but after two silly deaths i took today that normally wouldn't happen i gave up for today lol. I was fighting this blaster on my stalker and he had like 10hp left, i pressed ET, seen the wheel start spinning, but the animation never started and all of a sudden he had full hp, and his whole team was around me out of nowhere, i swear it's like they beamed in like startrek. I see all this red battle damage on my logs but i'm at full hp, than i clicked phase to make sure, than it asked me did i want to hosp or go to my vg base hahaha. So after that one i was demoralized enough to watch tv and forum hop tonight lol.
The funny thing is, even though you seem like one of the whiners that got the changes made in the first place, you're probably still bad..------Macskull on Crop_of_shaolin

I have experienced this off and on since I10. Every other thing I do on my connection, etc is fine. Every 30 sec or so it shows packets lost on the netgraph and when it is really bad it is every 5-10 secs. I have been having the activation rings still around powers I used many seconds ago and looking unactivated. Also rubberbanding will happen occasionally just walking in a straight line. I dunno what it is, but it along with changes has severely lessened my playing of this game.

Yep, that's exactly what it is. It's not constant steady lag. It's just basically not registering anything that happens every few seconds. I don't know what the hell they did to make it constantly do this starting with I15.

the game would be far better if they had just left it the hell alone a few issues ago.

Fix't that 
Update: After lagging into a couple more deaths in RV, I remembered I have a toon on lol, Virtue. So for testing purposes I checked it out. Went to virtue sirens call.
Zero lag. Right away, it just felt different. You could actually move without rubberbanding. The NPC's were flying, running....not teleporting all over the map. No power tray issues. Basically how it was before I15.
So congrats Freedom. This seems to be a server problem. They just had to [censored] up the most popular PvP server.
I killt 100 peeps no pvP IO drop 
... w/e though fix is comming.

Well, is this surprising? The Devs obviously can't have actual PvP...that would go against what they have been working for for so long. First they introduce loli13, then they ban the only Test SG left, and now they are going against the last group of remaining PvPers: those who PvP in the zones.
Obviously Freedom would be the first, as it has been labeled the PvP server.

my complaint is the lag,
Lag may have increased, however the fact you're being effected by it is a direct result of having a steam powered computer. :P I play every night in RV on Freedom on max graphics and never experience lag no matter how many people on are the screen...

I don't know wtf they did, but starting with I15, the lag is absolutely insane. Everything just teleports around. I see someone tp 50 yards one way, then 50 yards the other way, then 100 yards back. Was very seldom like this before I15 (only during really high peak times like double XP); has been like it constantly since.
But whatever, lag is lag. The part that makes the game unplayable is the completely broken power tray. Half the time, powers don't show as being activated in the tray. I click a power, and there is no visual indication whatsoever that the power was clicked. The actual power does get activated, but in the tray, it's like nothing happened. So I click phase, see the power hasn't activated, and click it again....and turns out I just turned off phase, because it did actually activate. During attack chains, it constantly shows my attacks not activated...and I'm thinking what the hell...did I really not use levitate after dominate? Makes it impossible to really use powers, since you never know what is actually available, and what is just a visual bug.
Basicaly it's the worst power lag I've ever seen in this game, it's constant on all toons I play, it didn't exist before I15, and it's existed constantly since I15.
This game sucks.
