Deadlock is becoming unplayable

[dokotov]

Hey Devs,

What’s going on with Deadlock? Honestly, it’s heartbreaking to see such an amazing game become this frustrating to play.

These days, 9 out of 10 matches are laggy as hell. Instead of enjoying the action, I’m stuck dealing with constant freezes and delays. Are the servers running on fumes or what? It really feels like you’ve either run out of resources or just stopped caring about the player experience.

And the mouse issue? That’s a whole other level of weird. It either completely disconnects or lags so much that it’s unusable. Why is my mouse’s performance tied to your servers? That’s not how it works in literally any other online shooter.

There’s no point in sending match IDs because this happens in almost every game. And before you ask, it’s not my PC. I’m running an Asus ROG Strix Scar 2023 — a high-end gaming laptop that handles everything else perfectly.

Deadlock is an incredible game, but issues like this are killing it. Please fix this before players lose patience completely. I love this game, and I don’t want to see it fall apart.

Not everyone has them? Never had any issues with game at all except blatant server crashes. It's an alpha playtest. This is not a live game. There are a lot of broken and weird stuff. Sucks for you that you're having issues but just hop on Twitch and you can see for yourself people are playing just fine.

Never seen or heard of anything like this before? Game might simply not be optimised for a laptop, not sure what but a lot of people have worse specs and no issues

The problem is on your end bro

laptops suck at deadlock unfortunately, games cpu reliant and laptops tend to have bad cpus

it's likely not on his end, the servers have been having a rough time lately especially in matches with multiple spectators, it almost feels like input lag but it's almost certainly serverside as I have a high end pc and no issues in other games.. turning off amds 'anti-lag' ironically solved the other lag issues I was having locally.

keep an eye out for the red dot in the bottom right of your screen, I believe it indicates poor server performance (I see it more often than not)

It only occurs in Deadlock and usually on times were a lot of people are playing, evenings and the weekend. Would be an incredible specific issues if it is on our end

I have had a near flawless experience dude I am on higher end hard ware (12900k and 4080 super) dto that likely has to do with it. Also hardwired fiber. I just never have performance or network issues like this
