World freeze

I started the into the Plains quest where you fight the dragon, suddenly every button press was like 5 minutes behind, and then everything froze. I asked in chat if anyone was lagging and a warlock replied they were happy they weren’t alone. I was able to walk around and talk but I couldn’t use my abilities and my health didn’t go up everything was frozen. I waited for a few minutes to see if it would pass and it didn’t tried exiting to no avail, so I decided to alt f4 and relog now it’s fine but this was super weird. I know it wasn’t my internet because my husband’s computer was fine, and another person shared my lag. I have noticed a tremendous amount of lag when going into zones where it will shunt you forward freeze then 2 minutes later it will unfreeze and its fine. I feel like this was that but extreme. I have checked all my computer stuff components and they seem to be working fine so I really think this may be on the blizz side. Ironically just got kicked off the game entirely just now.

Yes.

I was frozen, had abnormally high latency. I was in LFR queue, then it took me out.

Turns out it put me in the LFR group, they were chatting but no group was on my screen … then disconnected finally. Could not manually close the game unless I did “close program”.

That was an odd one, but i did get DC’d a while earlier, then bnet services went offline too.

Who knows!

Edit: Managed to get back in game just now and latency is back to normal levels.

Same here. Was experiencing lag in the waking shores where things would take a min or so. was able to go to the forbidden reach fine for a quest but on my way back, total freeze.

Hearthstone animation would play but wouldn’t cast, buffs stuck at 0s, unable to dragonride. Alt f4 did fix it for me too
