So I am not sure if this is something which is just happening to me and only me-- but I have noticed that during this week, there's been something of a noticeable lag when I play City of Heroes. So my character just recently hit Veteran Level 4 and already has a few Incarnate Abilities, but I noticed that whenever I play in PVE battles in any of the zones-- although this is noticeable quite a lot in Dark Astoria, there's Animation Lags.
I hit an attack, the character doesn't perform the animation, but the opponent NPC registers the hit and takes damage as normal. However, sometimes the enemy doesn't drop after being KO'ed and just stands there in idle stance until they despawn. So this is something of a.. noticeable lag. Nothing to do with internet connection and this game is being played on a two year old ASUS ROG.
However... last night and today have been the worst cases. The above issues are still there and are still prevalent. But last night I was playing the game with a friend, and one of my characters, FELL through the floor and I was trapped in a black area. The only way to get out of that area was to teleport out of there, and when I tried to rejoin the mission again, I fell through the floor again and this time COULD NOT get out because I just used my teleport ability.
So, I had to exit the game, restart the game and then I was stuck on the loading screen for maybe a minute or two before being able to select my character.
This PC should be able to handle a twenty year old game like this, so... I don't know what is going on.
Has anyone else experienced this issue?
