Server Lag During the Big Update
IntermediateTechnology
Two gaming teammates chat online about a new video game update, and one complains that the servers keep lagging during their matches.

你更新到新版本了吗？我刚下载完。
nǐ gēngxīn dào xīn bǎnběn le ma? wǒ gāng xiàzài wán.
Did you update to the new version? I just finished downloading it.

更新了，新地图看起来超酷的！
gēngxīn le, xīn dìtú kàn qǐlái chāo kù de!
I did update it, and the new map looks super cool!

对啊，可是我刚才玩的时候，服务器一直卡。
duì a, kěshì wǒ gāngcái wán de shíhou, fúwùqì yìzhí kǎ.
Yeah, but when I was playing just now, the server kept lagging.

真的吗？我这边还挺流畅的啊。
zhēn de ma? wǒ zhèbiān hái tǐng liúchàng de a.
Really? On my end it's actually pretty smooth.

每次一打团战，画面就开始延迟，气死我了。
měi cì yì dǎ tuánzhàn, huàmiàn jiù kāishǐ yánchí, qì sǐ wǒ le.
Every time a team fight starts, the screen starts lagging—it drives me crazy.

你要不要先检查一下你的网络？
nǐ yào bu yào xiān jiǎnchá yíxià nǐ de wǎngluò?
Do you want to check your internet connection first?

我查过了，网速挺快的，问题肯定出在服务器上。
wǒ chá guò le, wǎngsù tǐng kuài de, wèntí kěndìng chū zài fúwùqì shàng.
I already checked—my connection speed is pretty fast, so the problem must be on the server side.
L
可能是刚更新完，太多人同时上线了吧。
kěnéng shì gāng gēngxīn wán, tài duō rén tóngshí shàngxiàn le ba.
It's probably because it just updated and too many people are online at the same time.

有道理，服务器估计承受不了这么大的压力。
yǒu dàolǐ, fúwùqì gūjì chéngshòu bùliǎo zhème dà de yālì.
That makes sense—the server probably can't handle this much pressure.
L
要不我们等一两个小时再玩，那时候人应该会少一点。
yàobù wǒmen děng yì liǎng gè xiǎoshí zài wán, nà shíhou rén yīnggāi huì shǎo yìdiǎn.
How about we wait an hour or two before playing—there should be fewer people then.
W
好主意，我先去官网看看有没有维护公告。
hǎo zhǔyi, wǒ xiān qù guānwǎng kànkan yǒu méiyǒu wéihù gōnggào.
Good idea—I'll go check the official site first to see if there's a maintenance announcement.
L
行，等服务器稳定了就叫我，我们再来一局！
xíng, děng fúwùqì wěndìng le jiù jiào wǒ, wǒmen zài lái yì jú!
Sure, once the server is stable, give me a shout and we'll play another round!
