These worlds generally have the best population (it is low) and perform much better when normal worlds lag. These servers are accessed by changing the language of the client (Go to login screen > Runescape located in the upper left-hand corner > Options > Change language to anything other than English and re-launch). The best you can do is hop to a foreign world. You will feel it once a world is populated enough, so much so you cannot do bosses very well, or anything that requires fast reactions. It doesn't matter whether you're 5ms ping, or 100. The higher this number goes, the worse the lag will be. It's around this number that you can begin to see annoying delays with responses. This is good for the game, but terrible for the servers.įor the longest time, worlds have not been able to keep up whenever around 250+ people start populating them. Both these combined are keeping player counts high. Most worlds are hovering around 250+ players right now due to new skill and the COVID-19 pandemic. You are likely suffering from lag caused by player count on worlds.
