The lag, is just absolutely horrid. What kind of change did you guys make at the end of thursday to screw over the entire weekend? Are we going to get this fixed or just no luck this weekend for the new content? I really don’t enjoy standing there not touching/doing anything for a minute then stepping forward and warping around and dying. It’s just infuriating.

I have lag… not in the story/instance part, but in dry top it’s unplayable.

The only way to play the engineer is to exploit it.
Playing the engineer “as intended” is simply not viable.

Someone was saying it’s for maps with the ip starting with 64, but I haven’t had any luck getting into lag free maps. And I thought maybe it was just me but everyone in the zone is reporting lag as well. And it’s not just normal little bit of choppiness, I’m talking actions finally going through a good 30s after you initiate them. It’s unbearable.

The end of Thursday was the start of the 4th of July.

Maybe someone spilled celebratory beer (totally different from regular beer) on a server during an office party.

curious those not having issues, are you EU? care to do /ip and report what they are. Very likely it’s some servers are having issues so it’kitten and miss from the sounds of it. I’ve had no luck the past ~24 hours.

It’s utterly unplayable for me in Dry Top, a lot of other users were having the same trouble yet others were having none at all.

I’ve yet to have any lag or frame rate issues in this zone.

I do not understand the point of a post like this. Is it a “haha” post or are you trying to call everyone complaining of lag liars or something? It’s not even helpful without any additional info like what world you are on or what times of day are you playing. Just saying," Nope no lag here" isn’t very helpful.

And yes, some shards are horrid. It’s funny that the past hour I’ve been running two accounts in the house on separate shards for Jade Quarry. One shard isn’t playable while the other was not lag free but a bit better. Whomever is Anet’s hosting, they are having serious server/connection issues.

Last night I did notice that anytime I used an aspect crystal there was a “hitch” in the animation…nothing really major, but noticeable. Could that be part of this?

Unlikely. The lag we’re experienced is similar to 5k+ latency. The game stalling for long periods, everyone rubber banding to a new location, and then another pause for 5 or 6 seconds before your skills activate and everything updates position.

I’ve had some unplayable server lag in the game yesterday as well, but it seemed to stop upon changing to a different map. Something seems wrong on ArenaNet’s end with some of the servers.

Yeah I’ve been lagging in drytop for the past 12 hours already. I played last night and I gave up because of the lag and this morning is the same.

What upsets me though is no one here in Anet is trying to tell us why.

Dry Top has been unplayable for me all day yesterday and today, same for my friends, as soon as you zone into it, its instant lag fest, skills take over 30 seconds to respond, its horrible, time of day does not seem to matter either, as soon as I map out of the zone the game runs as normal,

It doesn’t matter which character I take in there, its the same problem, seems that all guild mates are also getting the same issue.

I came to this thread to see what it was about. I decided to log in and go to Dry Top for a test. Well, there does seem to be a problem. I’ve had zero lag until today. I have not had any frame rate issues or lag issues with this game other the marionette which I just had to adjust my settings to fix. I know there have been people saying that they can’t play this zone since it dropped on Tuesday, but I had no issues until today, so there is something wrong.

I don’t think this was the intent but rather to say that the lag issue is not effecting everyone. I’m not having lag either but it may be a good idea to start a new thread for those that are lagging so that Anet can gather data on. The post should contain your system specs, ISP, how you connect to the internet wired(a cable connect to the back of your PC) or wireless(WiFi), your location (country, state and city), the ip of the server you are on, and a ping path or trace rout log, if you know how to correctly do one. There could be so many reason why some people are getting lag and some are not.

Opinions are like ______ everyone has one I could
put the correct term in but not everyone has kittens

Well, if you get on the wrong map, it seems that everyone on that map is lagging.

I just logged into the map, first time since wed, and wow the lag in there is worse than the lag in stonemist castle ever was. A good 10-15 secs of everything just pausing on the screen. And yes everyone in my map was experiencing the lag.

I have lag… not in the story/instance part, but in dry top it’s unplayable.

Same here, if it helps pin down why I use Comcast as my provider. I trigger an aspect skill and wait then it goes off. Kinda funny sometimes. I hit assisted leap and nothing so I move around then it goes off lol

And players need to start bug reporting if they haven’t – remember, that will draw attention faster than posting to the forums.

If they’re anything like the shops where I’ve worked, there’s minimal manning on the weekends for forum moderation; but there’s likely a threshold set on bug reports that once exceeded, will prompt investigation.

Something seems to have messed up somewhere. I had massive lag as well and when I asked map chat about it everyone who replied said they were getting the same. It got to the point where it was unplayable (3 second delay in skill activation). Fortunately it’s only dry top.

Hey everyone, I just wanted to let you know that we are aware of the lag issue and that people are working on it. It’s possible that one of the sandstorms got a few geodes lodged in the servers , but they will find out and fix it as soon as possible. Hang in there with us, and thanks for being patient!

It’s not completely fixed. Most of the time it’s OK, but it seems there are one or two maps that are still having absolutely atrocious lag.
