Recent issues, performance, lag, weird acting objects
Created by: eplgr
Description of issue
Recently, an update caused everything to start acting very weird. Watch the webm, it explains better than what I can say with words.
https://puu.sh/tanps/3f521ad032.webm (first half shows objects acting weird, second half shows...lag)
A few days ago, the whole server started having very high ping, resulting in several rounds crashing and/or force-ended. Apparently, it was a bug with viruses, and the update got rollback'd. This did fix the server-wide problem, but some players, including me, still experience issues.
I am opening this thread mainly to be a reminder, especially because it looks like it doesn't affect everyone, but I am guessing that the players that have these issues, almost can't play anymore.
Sidenote: no, it's not a personal internet connection problem, many players have this issue and, in my case, I have no problems in any other online game + the test server works perfectly.
Difference between expected and actual behavior
Everything was working fine 1 week ago.
