My town-mates and I...who are in different parts of the US... have both noticed unusual lag/rubberbanding whenver we are close to our town Bell. There is also a lot of Sheds near Bell... so I mention is only as a possible factor for whomever is looking.
We have all made sure A/V is not an issue; killed any dropbox like app,turned off Wander/Run, etc... everything is fine... even in town claim... until we get within 15-20 squares of the Bell...then the disturbance starts up in earnest. At first we thought it was the number of players in proximity... but even after the others logged off... I still had the issue and I was the only player on the mini-map- maxed out.
Any ideas? This is a recent issue. It wasn't there 2 days ago... last time I was in town. It's big time reminiscent of 'Boston' during prime hours when population is 100+..
Wondering if anyone else has noticed a performance drop near their own Bell/sheds.
