Guild Wars 2

Recently, I have very high ping. 250-500. I keep dcing on loading screen. Sometimes it kicks me out of the map even after I have fully loaded(just chilling till match start then bam, dc). Or sometimes when I want to change toon, it simply refuses to let me load the map! And it takes me a lot of time to log back ingame again(keeps popping error on log-in). I have 11 losses today 7(hello -21 pts) of which coz I kept dcing and lagging! My net is fine. This problem only occurs in pvp. I have friends who have the same problem of dcing while on loading screen or getting kicked out of the map. Can the system just CANCEL match if there are less than 10 players on the map after the “match start” countdown?

Then stop playing? You know there is latency issues but you continue to play then whine about it. And if you care that much about points then you shouldn’t be whining on the forums, go to a internet cafe.

I did stop playing after 7 dcs. And yes, I will qq about latency issues coz freedom of speech! I just wanted to grind as much points as I can before I go on a 1-week vacation! And I don’t want to go to an internet cafe coz I doubt it’s better there.

Freedom of speech? Speech doesn’t take up space in the world, unlike your post. The first DC should be sign for you to go check elsewhere in game if there is any lag. I don’t get this lag you speak of so i am more swayed to think that is actually partially your end, either your ISP connecting to Anets servers or something similar.

Isn’t the forums here for “freedom of expression”? So yes, I will air my grievances here whether you like it or not. I don’t have problems with loading other maps(PvE/dungeons), it’s just when I load into a PvP map that it acts up. And Im not the only one lagging/dcing, I also keep getting team 4v5s and dcers in my team and enemy team as well.

ISP issues =/= Anets problem to fix. Sorry, but often times it’s not on Anets end and when it is you see 100+ dc/lag posts. The system works so much better than it was now, you click ready and if all 10 hit yes, it’s going to start. It’s up to your Internet and computer to do the rest.

Yeah could be my ISP, but this problem is strictly isolated in gw2 pvp maps. All other aspects of game is fine. And all other games(dota2, archeage, tera) are running fine on my pc and internet. So excuse me for venting my frustrations.

While system is better now than before(and I’m grateful for that), How bout (this is just a suggestion) they cancel a match if less than 10players are loaded into the map after the “match start” countdown? Ofcourse any dcs during the game is not anet’s responsibility anymore. Just to reduce all this frustration. Coz map loading dcs do happen. Imagine the 28 people screwed today coz of my inability to load the map. My apologies to them.

I heard a protip that if you put some olive oil between the phone or cable jack your internet lag issues goes away. 100% virigin olive oil works best. If that doesn’t work try putting modem in dish washer, but be sure to use the right soap specifically designed for it.

I know you’re venting, it’s fine. I’m just saying it seems you are the only one specifically with this issue so odds are it’s your end in some manner. If it was Anets end we would be seeing tons of comments with this issue. Sure your other games may work but that just means they use different ports, game files, etc which are working as intended. You’d be better off contacting support for help rather than forums. Vent there, not on here.

Dc while loading maps, I get a white screen and typical error message…so the OP is not the only one
