Guild Wars 2

1. My 3rd question is :If you ever have a solution to this are there any plans to lift the AoE Limit for both WvW/PvE/PvP because thats why this AoE limit exist in 1st place

Actually it doesn’t, the point of 5 people damage limit per aoe is because some professions could wipe entire zerk with spamming AOE. That’s why this is limited,

I’ve been getting lag spikes and skills just straight up not going off over the past few weeks, and it has gotten much worse over the past week or so, to the point where I can’t play any PvP content. Is this going to be fixed any time soon? ‘Cause at this rate it’s not really worth playing the game at all.

Yay! Game optimization! Thank you Anet!

also I recently made a post about bound items everyone should check out!

Yay Guild Wars 2!

Servers have been laggy as of recently, is it just me or is anyone else experiencing the same? It’s been continuously disconnecting me at times, even though there was no problem with my ISP at all.

besides patch days i cant understand why servers would have lag, most people are aware you as a company are getting paid quite well

I m SEA player from malaysia, I’ve been getting lag spikes and skills lag and getting worse in spvp.

Unfortunately it’s the Internet, in time it might clear up but given your location and the state of the word today expect lag. You might look in the support forums and try some of the suggestions, good luck.

I noticed this was recently unstickied — I guess the lag problems aren’t as important anymore?

Is anything more being done about these spikes? Just because we don’t live in the US and we have to tolerate this lag, doesn’t mean we have to like it.

Translation.

There are so many errors, bugs and issues with the lag that we can’t handle it all so we just said kitten it and are focusing all of our efforts into Living Story instead.

Thanks for understanding.

Just a little question about Client Side Optimization, I know, Bill, you said surely multiple times by now, that you aren’t working on them, that you work on Server side optimizations, but that you are working on them and that they will come, but much more slower…

So can we take these words basically as a confirment, that Anet hasn’t forgotten things like:

• Giving GW2 a DX11 Support (or even by now 12, but my guess is, 11 makes more sense as 12 will have too few people)
• Giving GW2 finally a 64 Bit Client
• Adding more/better Setting Filters for the Graphics, like something to Deactivate other Players Minipets/Back Items/Legendary Weapon Effects

Because currently its totally silent about all of this since release of the game, where Anet announced before of the release of the game, that GW2 would support DX11 somewhen later in the future…. and I think, nobody of us would have thought at that point, that nearly 3 years later, it’s still not there and feels by now like, as if that was just some kind of vapor marketing announcement to hype the people more for the game, but in fact was nothing but just hot air.

So I would like to have this one question being answered from you Bill.

Are currently also too Client Side Optimizations like DX11 Support and a 64 Bit Client in the works in the background of Anet – Yes or No?

I don’t want to hear any specific dates, that people could lay out like promises, just a simple yes or no, because from what you#ve written here in your posts, it seems that Anet works on these things also too, but like you said – just much slower compared to Server Side Optimizations.

Player positions desynched in sPvP. Skills delayed in sPvP.
My assumption is condition tracking:
- all stacks are individually tracked due to different effectivenesses.
- all the while new ones are added, additional dmg is triggered (like on move or skill use) and some are removed
This seems to be too much for the engine.

How to destroy sPvP:
Take 2 MM necroes and 1 poison sharing Thief.
Enjoy the view as enemies keep running in straight lines – often into walls – while the conidition bombardment from players&minions (who’ll also make use of the “poisons”) destroys them. No idea how it looks like on the other side.

Very easy to test. You are welcome.

Sorry about the bump, but this is the official topic.

2 years of optimizations and yet no change, now i skill lag in pvp as well…
