I've tried the /synch command and that doesnt work either. |
Exit the game and just run the NCSoft Launcher program, right click on the City of Heroes button and choose install game and wait until it finishes.
It's also possible that other software on your system is "stealing" network bandwidth, CPU cycles or hard drive access that the game needs to run smoothly.
Also since we know nothing about your rig please follow the instructions found in the pinned thread on this board titled "[Guide] Asking for technical help on the forums" and post the requested CoHHelper and Hijack This reports.
Lastly /netgraph 1 will show you the games ping history. Short green bars are good, lots of tall yellow and red spikes is bad.

COH has just been murdered by NCSoft. http://www.change.org/petitions/ncso...city-of-heroes
Actually, I've noticed an increase in rubberbanding lately, and the netgraph shows lovely red corresponding spikes.
At first, we thought it was due to Skype or TS, but, while those do tend to increase the frequency, I'm still getting it even when those programs are not running.
I've also talked to several folks who have noticed an increase in lag since the last couple patches.

YUMMY Low-Hanging Fruit for BASE LUV
I have seen this several times for different reasons.
1). Antivirus software decided to start scanning the hard drive.
2). Other software decided to do an update.
3). iTunes decided to pull down podcasts
4). My wife is sucking bandwidth watching Netflix
5). Comcrash has "problems" in my area
Just a sample of what might be going on. Also, being in a busy zone in game can do it too, whether from a Rikti invasion or a Costume contest.
