Ukase Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Most folks know there's new content on Brainstorm (The test server). I continue to be amazed at how fast Super Speed is on there, compared to Excelsior or Indom, or any other server. Some suggested it was due to lag or some server load that made the difference. For some reason, while I accept it as a possibility, given the stark contrast between Brainstorm and any of the lower pop servers, I'm thinking there's something else at play. I just don't know what else it could be. All in my head? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bionic_Flea Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Dunno. The only thing I can think of it to time yourself running from point A to point B on each server and time it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The server latency part would be my guess, but I've always played on Indom so it feels the same to me on Brainstorm lol 1 Check out my zone tour of Pocket D! / A chronology of "the talks" between HC and NC / Buckets of Lore! / Winter Event Badges!

Astralock Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Some things are noticeably slower on Excelsior compared to other shards, especially in crowded zones. *Side eyes Atlas Park and the Rikti War Zone.* I suspect that is what you are seeing. Like Flea suggested, do test runs between Brainstorm, Excelsior, and Torchbearer or Indomitable and time them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did shave 4 seconds off my usual time on the ski chalet on Brainstorm. With the new option to show target distance, it took me 10 seconds to go 500 yards. Now I just have to find the same kind of target on Excelsior. Bah...no significant difference. Sure seems a LOT faster on Brainstorm.
