This is because each server world DOES NOT have it's own server. For instance, one server would control fortification updates, another battles, another resource regen rates......for multiple servers. It's cheaper, as you don't need as many servers, but reduces bandwith, thus lag. Dedicated servers don't exist here. I only have half the certification courses for networking IT spe******t, but I SWEAR, I could have wired up the servers better than Evony does. Cutting costs at the expence of gameplay. If Evony doesn't change their pay system soon, then the problem will continue to worsen as they won't make enough of a profit to buy new servers.
