    disconect when you are invaded and the invader is lagging?.I do not me the little lag,I mean the lag where they are telleportting all over your screen.I have been hosting at the Burg to night and for most invasions they were fine.But I had two where one was flashing all over my screen.When they spawned they float down the stairs and like a jack in the box pop up in the middle of the duel area.The other invasion I was hit (half my health gone) before I even saw them on my screen then like before he\she spawned infront of me in the duel area and finished me off before I knew what was happening.....Do they know they are lagging?Can you see it yourself when you lag.....I have a fibre optic ISP and have never seen myself do **** that I saw to night.But yeah I just now disconect and if they ask me why?.I tell them why...Is this wrong?.What would you do or what have you done when faced with this amount of lag........Sorry for the wall of text guy's and have a great new year.......

    It's not wrong to disconnect while the other person is spiking, really. It's nobodies fault.

    I guess your right but I got a few heated text from a few invaders and it got me thinking if I was doing the right thing by disconecting.Also to answer my own question to weither or not people see themselfs lag?.I take it they dont as if they did they would not send heated text my way for dashboarding.....Also just to make a point I will only do this when invaders are spiking......

    i've only disconnected after being invaded and the dark wraith ran off and hid somewhere in the level ahead of me. he refused to come out and fight. so after a few minutes of being really bored i pulled the plug.

    they called me a chicken afterwards.

    Usually i never have time to disconnect when lag like that hits, i usually just die. But when i do have time, i would too.

    And i've had the random inavader do that thing to nybbles, guy ran past me down the elevator in the dlc area. I went after him, the coward. He was waiting at the bottom with the dragon bow, lamest tactic ever! Next time he invaded me and ran for the same attempt. I went, hid myself and walked away. I hope he sat there for a long long time waiting. I was gone a hour or so before i came back still alive, i quit the game without looking for him though.

    Thank's guy's after reading your reply's I do not feel like I was in the wrong.And your right usaly you do not get the time to disconect when faced with a lot of lag but luck as it I am no more then a foot away from my xbox and router so I just power off.....As to invaders who run off and bait you into dueling on there terms also anoys the hell out of me too.I just stand my ground.They have 2 options BkCrystel out or come duel me......

    I think the time you take disconnecting then re-booting is not worth the time the 15 sec fight would take.

    But that's just me. Shrug

    I know what you mean but to me loseing my souls and humanity to a player who is lagging just does not sit well.It feels like I have lost a fight that was unfair.I feel cheated.So I do not mind that time it takes to keep my sanity...Is it wrong too....... 2707236321

    Actually you can sometimes. Once I dueled a guy in the burg. On my screen he successfully dodged my attack, and then took damage from the attack a sec or 2 later.

    Once I was dueled in the rullette. (Yukon should has a vid on the thread.) On my screen it looked like my first attack was an impossible backstab. I haven't seen the vid yet, so I don't know how it looks on it. It made me think, "OMG what did I do?" Poor guy, I'm about 90% certain I lagstabed him.

    EDIT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=NdsC9-HjE_k

    The hit in question is at about 1:20 - 1:30. It doesn't look as laggy as I remember, but it seems a little laggy.

    Also, it isn't wrong to disconnect.

    Yeah I saw the jittyness of the player.An that BS was crazy,the player was sucked in and snapped round straight onto the blade......Like mine though they were a lot worse.You would see them in one area and then the next they are some where else.....An I so wish I had caught the invasion where I was hit lost half my health so I chug away on my flask thinking WTF and as I am doing this the invader spawns infront of me like jake in the box and finishes me off with a blast of dragon breath.All this happend in the blink of an eye...It was crazy Is it wrong too....... 1330857165

    If lag is REALLY bad, and they are using it to their advantage, i will usually just suicide off a ledge. DCing comes off as "awww, did they really want that 1 humanity that much?", while just suiciding off a ledge is more "hmm i wonder why they did that?".

    Also if someone is extremely laggy, and it stays consistant adding them to your block list seems to help. I had heard mixed things about that, but it works for me. I don't think it makes it impossible for you to be paired with them, but far less likely. Unfourtunetly i have like 50 Japanese players on my block list cause of this, it actually helped me start getting paired with more players from my region it seemed though(especially in the burg).

    It's a shame, i wish i could play with Asian players but the lag is just horrible most of the time. I often have bad connections with people from Europe also, although not usually as bad as with Asian players. It sucks that we will not be able to play with anyone in the world, but i'm overall glad that Dark Souls 2 will have dedicated servers for different regions.

    Your 1st quote holds a lot of sense.I may try to do this instead,like you say if they do not know they are lagging and I keep DCing they are going to think Im a coward.As to the block feature for Xbox I tend to not bother blocking as I belived it was a placebo.Will try it more offten and see what happens....As too DkS II servers I really can not wait.It will give players a stable platform to show there true skill and duel(s) will be won fair based off this and not bad connections....Is it wrong too....... 2905764326
