Guild Wars 2

I guess its a local issue since noone else is discussing this but I am getting a 50-8 second lag with my sound. One of my guildmates says the same is happening to her.

Any ideas on what could be causing this?

Oh I should have said… Dragonbrand (US) server.

NM it was me. Rebootie sorted it.

In busy areas this is caused by a busy hard drive for me. The sounds begin to play after the game has properly loaded everything (it seems to start with graphics and then does sounds).

I get a similar delay when I zone via Gate or Waypoint. It use to not be the case but I believe that they use to leave you on the loading screen until the loading is done.

I tend to get it whenever. It seems randomly. Its been happening more often in WvW, which could be due to the large number of players. Like last night, I was using a cannon to defend SM, and I wasn’t getting any sound (other than my music playing in background of windows), and then after a while it would try to catch up, then do it again. It finally sorted itself out, but it does keep happening to me.
