Massive Latency Spikes

This is still a problem in Northern California. Can we get some sort of acknowledgement of this issue?

There are a lot of different fixes for the latency issue going around that seem to work for some and do not work for others. I was stuck bouncing between 30ms-400kms every night since the launch of 0.1.0d, so I tried many of the fixes and nothing seemed to work (e.g. deleting cache, flushing dns, using vpn, predictive network, etc.) What did ultimately work for me was turning off crossplay in the config.ini file. I have had stable latency since doing this for whatever reason. Not saying this will work for everyone and definitely will not work for console, but it made all the difference for my PC experience.

For those who want to try your luck and do not know how to access this:

Navigate to [local drive]\users\[account name]\documents\My Games\Path of Exile 2\poe2_production_config.ini

Look for crossplay_disabled=false under the [General] section of the document and change it to crossplay_disabled=true then save the file.

Hopefully this helps someone out of the latency hole as it did for me while we wait for an actually fix to come downstream.

same happens to me every day around the same time of day, California server, around 3-4 PM PST.

I'm having problems with this too since the start of EA. Making new instances seems to fix it but yeah... it stops working when you are in maps and the game becomes unplayable.

I'm also checking at the client.txt in the log folder and when I get a bad instance the server I get is something like 169.57.216.xxx and when i get a good instance with normal ping it's something like 43.157.171.xxx. I dont understand why it's trying to connect my game to the wrong server? (the gateway is the sao pablo one)

i have fiber internet 1k up and down wired. Ive never had any latency issues on any game other than poe 2. The game is unplayable from 5pm pst to around 10 pm depending on the day. This has been happening to me since launch but stopped for the past week but suddenly today it started back up again. Ive tried everything and the only thing that keeps it manageable is a VPN for me.

Bump.

Dupable fix on my end is to get killed by monsters, respawn and the silly 250 latency spikes disappear.

Or reset the instance but this wont help anyone for mapping. it is defo a issue on GGGs side and not any routing nodes of any internet provider its an issue with their servers. Nothing we can do its up2 GGG to inform us or find a solution to it.

Its spikes a lot from 40 to 300 everyday, at this point we cant play. I like the game a lot but its unacceptable plz GGG fix the servers.

i cant play like this i paid money to play early access and you cant even fix the servers issue its been more then ten day and still the developers did not fix the servers issue what a shame its a great game but like that we cannot play

I have been playing for a week, never had this issue, but as soon as i reached to end game camp, The Ziggurat Refuge, huge lag spikes started happening, when I go in to a map, lag spikes continues, its nearly unplayable.
