 | Odeg the Keywarden - Causes input bug(1) | Category: Technical SupportMarch-25-2014 3:35 PM PDT (9 years ago)  |
| Hello, I have been trying to play my Crusader, currently lvl 17, started on master right away because the first act is a bit too easy otherwise. I would just like to notify you that Odeg the Keywarden, with his trapping spell seems to be causing a bug that freezes player state and prevents input from my computer being sent through to the server. With that I mean is that you cannot move from your location, you cannot use abilities, cannot attack yourself, but the NPCs do continue to move around the screen and fight eachother. Actions do trigger the animations. For example, when I hold down my left mouse button, it'll do the attack animation, but you are not causing any damage to the mobs. Again, same with movement, when I click somewhere to move, It'll do the animation, put a step in said direction and clip back to your original location. Using the town portal button will make your character stuck looping said animation. You for some reason can use potions. As the player, you cannot fall below 0% health and die, but mobs can die. Judging from the experience, I guess this is due a disconnect between client and server, in that the client cannot send any info to the server (thus you would get the animation bug, but no damage and clipping back to your location on movement), but the client is still receiving information from the server. This would explain why enemy mobs do die and NPCs in general are still able to move about and damage eachother, and that you constantly receive damage (since I assume those numbers are calculated server side), but the info that would come from the client (input from the user and death trigger) are not being sent through. I'd say that this might be a client issue, but since I haven't experienced this with any mobs or boss other than Odeg the Keywarden thusfar (on my other characters). So I was inclined he might be linked to the issue. Especially it has happened consistently 4 times in a row now after fighting him for several minutes as I have to kite him around on master to ensure I don't die. And ever single time, it happened after his trapping spell expired. First I believed this was simple lag, or input lag on my end, but I have been stuck in this scenario once for 20 minutes to see how long it'll last, and perhaps that it would pass by over time, it didn't. If anything, this is more of a hint that the always online DRM should be removed. Currently it serves no purpose after the removal of the RMAH. It's only being a giant pain in the !@#$ for us, the players, who paid for your game in the first place. | ||
