Guild Wars 2

Is it just me or is the trading post really laggy for everybody else? Each time I click an item to look at the prices, it loads slowly and instead of sliding in and out of view smoothly, the item info screen just kind of stutters onto the screen. I suppose it isn’t a huge problem, but it can get really frustrating when trying to sell lots of items at a time.

If it is my end, any advice on how to fix it?

Sometimes it’s nice and fast but often it’s like browsing on a single core Pentium 4, with only 1GB of memory, in Chrome, on XP.

Laggy, takes forever, very slow. Sometimes opens up panels twice like it’s having a mini heart attack.

Yeah. It’s bad a lot of the time.

Its been laggy for me for a few months now and got really bad a couple of weeks ago.
Not sure if its because i upgraded to windows 10 or something on anets side.

There is a constant lag of Trading Post UI throughout last month or two – it started with some of the updates. I am pretty sure it is a general issue for everyone as I have personally asked some people in guild and friends – they all suffer from this. Also I am pretty sure devs are aware of this issue as it is actually hard to miss out if you open the Trading Post at least once and try to do something.

It lags horribly when you are, for example, trying to enter a price right after opening an item popup – it just doesn’t let you or changes a random value (for example gold instead of copper). It also lags a lot more generally – while opening Trading Post itself, different categories or scrolling through lists of goods.

And I can certainly say that I am playing on a good connection/hardware which is more than enough to run the game on ~10-20 ms latency and 60 fps on max settings. So those lags are probably something indifferent to your network/PC setup.

It has ALWAYS been laggy for me. Like… the last two years.

Mine just started to be quite bad, no idea what happened in the last week or two. But it stutters when ever I post or buy items.

The hitbox issues for G/S/C values are being worked on, lets hope they are aware of the lag issues as well.

I am not sure why it is this bad. One or two people occasionally happening? Okay, fluke. Practically expecting it to do it several times in a session though? I have even had it cut out in the middle of my selling mats … one second it was working and poof. Scrolling is next to impossible.

It has gotten REALLY bad lately, even causing disconnects. That combined with a bunch of limited-time sales at the moment …
