Upgrade your pipes. It makes other internet servers and routers immediately faster and increases their bandwidth as well.

But really - The bug is when your ship is destroyed and you're transfered into your pod. A lot of the time theres caching issues and i find now and then my harddrive thrashes for 5-10 seconds when my ship explodes.

The best way to fix it is to leave your ship in station and have it load the Pod mode/graphics etc right before you enter battle. If you've been flying around for hours, chances are the pod model/graphics have been dropped from memory



What do you mean upgrade your pipes? I don't think this is a lag issue. I very rarely have lag of more than .1 second. I have a ssd hard drive but I do have an older graphics card but I play on the low settings and it used to work fine until incarna.

So what changed?

Do you think the pod graphics are better and therefore taking longer to load?

It is not only pods which have been behaving irrationally after incarna.

It is ALL STUFF TRYING TO ENTER WARP. You randomly get stuck at warp phase accelerating forever. And no I am not talking about this old bug which has been bothering us for at least 5 years when you turn off mwd after pressing warp your ship is stuck in alignment process.

Sometimes you can be tackled sometimes not when initiatin warp. It's feels totally random. There's no logic and this randomness is way too much to be an accident.

I have been experiencing different kind of problems with this warp drive initiation thing after incarna and they are definetly nothing like old ones.

Case A: You are aligned and you press warp button your ship is flying over 75% but nothing seems to happen for some time until suddenly warp

Case B: You're tackled after hitting warp button, way before your ship hits 75% speed, but your ship still suddenly warps.

Fix thank you. Or explain how it works so we can predict when our ship randomly enters warp or does it get tackled or not.
