I will forward this as soon as you provide your id number. It may be wise to log out for the next 10 minutes so that support can check this further.

Our support team had no issues logging on and sailing your account as you can see from your log book entries. So the issue does not appear to be from our side.

yeah well im lagging all week never like this before...I try to play uswest just now and lagging bad other players have same problems. I did a full computer system cleanup online and clear the cache like normal..but it does not help. every day lag and crash.

 

Thank you Vasa, your concerns have been forwarded.

 

thanks Nimitz...I hope it can get fixed..i did everything on this 1 year old computer..actually wiped it to factory settings..wiped everything off the computer. bought an online software thing the fixes any problems...and clear cache and all. but just try to play tonight us west coast Washington state and horrible lag. cant play the game at all. could it be a geographic problem some have issues some don't.

 

If you live in Washington state, it is most likely not a geographic problem as far as distance from server which I believe is in San Francisco. Who is your ISP? I have heard a number of people experiencing lag who have Verizon Fios. I dont know if this is just a coincidence or more.

 

Just a suggestion, not a fix. But people with the Verizon as Nimitz stated have been able to get around the lag by using a free VPN. You can google search "free VPN" (Virtual Private Network) and find one you like. Just connect to the internet through the VPN and bam! Your lag is gone. Its not a permanent solution but at least you will be able to play lag free until they get a fix for it. I had the same issue with one of my computers and did that and haven't had lag since. Hope that helps

 

Thank you for the information to try to help your fellow players.

 

I still have the problem cant get on the game. I try a vpn but it wont work..i don't know. I cant play very often gets stuck at 48%. I clear online cache, computer cache, did system check online fixed those issues. they different browser. all the same. game is not playable for me anymore. usually its lag when I get on then I eventually crash and cant get back on water. any ideas what I can do. never had such a long term problem..im usa west coast

 

Me too, I got kicked out of a scroll trying to f5 because of lag and freezing and now an hour and 30 later I can't get on water. US2 West. Oh! and I did clear cachebefore during and after, 3 times today.

 

Using a free VPN would effectively change your IP when logging onto the game. As Seafight bans for account sharing, and does this by checking the IP address of the player, and using a VPN would show to the Seafight team as a separate IP, would this be bannable or could possibly result in a ban? As you would have no idea when a player is using a VPN or just sharing accounts.

I know of a few players who use this method, and it does solve their problem. If I was to use one to solve my lag issue, I would hate to be banned for it.

 

It may show a different ip address, but it would not show other accounts linking to your account if you do not share accounts. It is not just the ip address that is gone by when checking for account sharing. There are many other calculations taken into consideration.

So no if you do not share accounts, using a VPN would not be a banable offense.

 

You may want to try to improve the performance of your pc,one way of doing this is by clicking start on your desktop then->click help and support->then type in "ways to improve my computers performance", from there you will see many options that will help you. There is a recent flash and java update this could be your issue in some cases you may want to completely remove flash and reinstall the new update from the link below, and In giving instructions as well to clear your browser cache It's important to do this at least 3 times a week if you tend to have issues.
