I've been tracking some bad lag for a couple of weeks now and have a ticket into WG, who made me jump through the usual number of hoops to ensure that the lag is real.

 

Symptoms:

• your tank jerks around a bit as you drive, as do other tanks - no smooth input or driving
• your tank stops or starts a moment after you put in the input for it to do so
• your tank fires a moment after you hit the button

 

I've made quite a few Pingplotter runs to figure out where on the worldwide-waste-of-time the problem is originating - and I've been getting consistent packet losses with three hops operated by Gcore.  Gcore is a content delivery network that - from what I can read - is delivering content for Wargaming.  WoT PC is also having lag/latency grief right now on their east coast server.

If more of you can submit tickets on this problem (if you're having it) WG can hopefully get this sorted out.

Same issue

[acrisis]

I can confirm with this visual ... 

 

 

Can include a last sec strange hop to Dallas, TX even though it just knocked on WG's door.

What if my ping is constantly jumping to 5000, my tank just keeps running into the ground/flying then teleporting back to a wall where it crashed?

Thankfully that happened in a training room.

Jumpy tanks. Happen a couple times a day.

Its not GCores' fault, its WG's.

 

It has been going on for months on the PC side, and at the end of it, its all about the $$$$$$.  Pay for subpar service?  You get subpar service.

[VonMiller58]

Had real bad problems for last 3 days...haven't played today yet

 

I already have high ping and the lag is bad...aiming is choppy and erratic...steering is really bad and noticeable in my speed tanks.

 

WR is dropping pretty bad because I can't adjust my style properly

 

I don't really care much...just wanted to share my experiences

 

Yes seen flying tanks at least 8 times last two days....and 1 FLying T95 on Yamamoto...was glorious

It does feel like a server downgrade, or severe overload to me

 

But I am not a tech guys so I am likely wrong

[WriterDude]

For me it's Cogentco - over half of my latency hits crossing those servers.

Thank you for the tech support. Explains a few things out side of my normal screw ups.

[Pittoors_]

Everything good to me, I have no lag.

[MayoNasalSpray]

I have been getting Lag without my ping spiking or FPS drops.

 

I know that this isn't my issue because I have to use my old phone now, (RIP Moto Z) I also know this because my Father who I ended up creating a Console World of Tanks player fiend has been getting Lag without pin 

G spikes as well.

Same here.

Bad lag, but ping is steady.

[Ericmopar]

Here's the old fashioned version.

Same thing, 100% packet loss at one of the servers between S. Nevada and the NA East Wargaming server.

​I'm with you I cant buy a winning team I just got killed at base by a JPANTHER II whom I was almost in base circle with my blaze and never saw him until he killed me. How do you explain that

[__Crusader6__]

Unplayable at the current status.  LTE or Wifi. 

  Ping and FPS indicate no issues. But game play is choppy and shots seem to leave .5-1sexond after firing.

^^^^^ This is exactly my problem. I've reinstalled the game, rebooted my router, ran speed tests. My internet is fine.

[TANK_PIMP]

Same here folks... lag issues persisting for a week or more. Good ping, choppy, delayed play. It's as if they don't want us to play this game anymore.
