Not 100% certain but it seems like it could be the dreaded "sound engine" issue. I have the same problem and not sure why it only becomes a problem as soon as I leave town maybe because the sound isn't vectored in towns?

Anyway, try running the game using the -nosound option and see if it fixes the problem. If it does then try lowering the in-game sound slider all the way, and turning of hardware acceleration in Windoze sound control panel.

Failing that, what soundcard are you using and what are you other system specs?

Uggh, that sounds like a different issue. I did notice an update this morning that put a little green dot on the interface that shows ping times and fps on mouseover. But I never left town to do any questing/killing.

Read the sticky at the top, if that does not help. Log a support ticket.

Please do not post topics on this, as there's nothing we can do regarding lag
