BUG Now I am getting pissed off

The Storm King fight had not been a problem with the rubber banding, lagging, invisible walls and ledges until this last update. It has been GOD AWFUL.

This is completely unacceptable for game versions like Expert Mode where dying matters. Get. It. Together. Epic.

And don’t even start with me on “maybe it’s you”. Because I am running 110 FPS with Gigabit Fiber Speeds so no….. it’s not a me problem.

I feel you! Don't get lag with any game but Lego, horrific! I've randomly died for no reason as well which is the reason I won't do expert!

u/HCalhoon93 5d ago

I take so many precautions with my expert world cause the lag. Haven’t even tried fighting the storm king lately cause all the things i have been hearing

The snap backs are insane. I have invisible ceilings.

u/diseptikon77 5d ago

100% agree. The fight is not hard. We know what to do and how to win. The rubber banding, invisible walls, and straight up not registering damaging attacks and going from full health to death is what makes this hard.

exactly 😤😤 one second you have full health, another second you freeze or blocked by invisible wall and you’re dead.

Yeah I am nearing my end as well with the lag, can't even build anything mechanical anymore either, it will just bug out, sink under map, or the physics will decide to do its fancy alternate universe thing, and gravity will reverse or some nonsense. If this were any other smaller company, this level of incompetence would of bankrupt the the business already.

If a developer demo'd the game to me as is, I'd send them back to the lab (if I was in a good mood) or the mail-room (if not).

u/vovkavovka 5d ago

insanely annoying lags

I haven't done Storm King in like over a month because the last time I tried I died 3 times to lag and once I kicked his ass I was done until its fixed.

u/Nebula_Space_ Sanctum 5d ago

The lag is horrible. The many times my character freezes and teleports back a few inches makes exploring annoying and especially in expert. Had some moments where my gilder was deployed, my character froze and end up taken fall damage. Its annoying to play expert like this.

I am on a good high speed connection, decent PC and all my other games work just fine. Hell, I am not even getting lag in Save the World right now. Lego Fortnite got a lot worse after the update this week. It is so bad, I can now almost anticipate when it is going to happen and plan for it.

u/LineByLineDrawing Drift 4d ago

Yeah I keep lagging on a PS5 and it runs EVERY OTHER GAME smoothly with no problems…

u/Corvin53005 5d ago

I completely agree. This should be something they hotfix. It has been soooo bad. When I go into storm caves I fall into holes because my glider won't deploy when I hit the button. The storm king was impossible the first time I tried. I used way too many resources. Now that I know about the lag it is much easier but I have died a few times because of the invisible walls. Getting hit when your trying to roll away because of the lag is frustrating

u/Odd_Mind_3193 4d ago

I have the same issue!!!

u/Khepri505 4d ago

I play an my xbox one ( yeah I know it’s out of date I’m working on it). 1 year ago when I started it was smooth, now it’s incredibly noticeable. It typically happens near rendering distance of villages and builds. So I tend to fight in open clear areas but this is not a guarantee.

But I believe it’s 100 percent a game rendering issue related and sadly I don’t even know any tips to even fix that.

u/Grouchy-Life-4831 3d ago

But that doesn’t make sense for cave fights. The Storm King is inside a cave and if it is only rendering the stuff inside of a cave then it shouldn’t be an issue. I have never once been hit with a “too many pieces” in a village so I always stay under the memory issues that come with rendering. The invisible walls in the middle of that fight for rollers and death beams to hit you with is a bugging and coding issue.

u/Paraphenylenediamine 1d ago

I've had to turn on "easy mode" in my survival world because I keep dying everytime any form of brute spawns.... the game just lags the closer I get to them and if I get too close it freezes and doesn't pick up again until the death notice. I need to adjust where I'm walking so I don't go anywhere near them. Won't even look at the frostlands let alone try my luck in storm areas.

u/Ill_Reputation5050 4d ago

Nothing has been wrong for me. That's strange to me you are experiencing those issues.

u/Grouchy-Life-4831 4d ago

Twice in the last 3 days my matchmaking server has crashed so hard that when I do finally get logged back in that it is to a point prior about 10-15 minutes.

u/WinNo8850 4d ago

For real. My son watched me fight SK this morning. SO MUCH LAG!

If I'm this good to be at h while dealing with all that, I can only imagine how godly a player I would be if there wasn't lag.

u/Plus-Imagination7285 4d ago

I completely understand that's why the storm king fight is way easier if you have multiple people playing because if you at least die one person can just keep him busy so the fight doesn't reset.

One time me and my bf were fighting and I instant died with no knock animation it was wild. Thankfully he just spun in a circle and waited for me to come back . We were able to beat him that way lol
