Is lag worse in HC?(1)Category: HardcoreSeptember-8-2014 4:59 AM PDT (10 years ago) Go to Blizzard forum post
I've just started my first HC character this season, and the first thing I noticed is...

The lag is by far the worst I've ever encountered.

This morning it was completely unplayable - every 10 seconds or so, 5 seconds of lag spike.

Is this always the case? Is it my internet? My SC characters seem to have no problem aside from the occasional lag spike when in a 4player party.

But this is single player HC and there are like 2 monsters on screen...why am I lagging so bad?

Is lag worse in HC? Shouldn't be. With that said, during the time of these posts there was an issue which affected a major internet provider (which is now reported to be resolved).
