Q:

Like a lot of people I’ve experienced alot of lag the last few days and because of that checked my connections.
Turns out all the connections from GW2 direct to servers in Texas.
Now that makes me want to ask 2 questions:
1.) Why are the servers in texas? o.0 Where there some problems with the EU servers and they had to be shut down for maintenance? If that’s teh case, why was there no official announcement?
2.) Why can’t we play with American players if the servers are in Texas?

Are you sure ? How did you check your connection?

Sounds crazy to me. But for sure today I had awfull lags on my german server (Flussufer) …

I do not want to believe this – NOOOOO!! Please, please tell me that this was a joke.
