Today, I’ve been lagging like hell while playing tournaments (and from the chat I wasn’t the only one who was lagging). I got kicked out twice in player selection, getting message “server restarts, try in a few minutes”, although I was getting back instantly.

1. 64.25.33.70:0
2. —-
3. 20.00 – 24.00 every day lately. Lag happens ONLY on spvp maps (both hotjoin and tourneys)

I hadn’t experienced any lag in a while, but last night while doing team and solo queue I was frequently having to hit skills multiple times for them to fire. It was very frustrating to not have things work fluidly. Sometimes I would have to hit the move forward key a couple times to start moving. I have a wired keyboard so it wasnt a battery issue.

Didnt know to capture server data. I will get that next time. The skill lag was on every match for me and others on my team. I am guessing there was a flood of people in WvW trying to finish up their meta and that was likely contributing to the slowdown in sPvP.

Hope it ok, on mac network utility took off " :0 " at ending for it to work.

Whole yesterday and today, from 15.00-02.00 (central EU) , in pvp and in pve dungeons. The point where complains start is, when our skills dont fire and we have to double press them.

Just finished a terrible lag session on Skyhammer.. recorded it if you want to see it. 64.25.38.224

Hi im playing on desolation.
Server ip 206.127.159.147
Time 17:30 +-x

My isp says my connection is fine its not their fault.
So is there any timeline for fixing the lags in spvp?

One game earlier

Hi John,

Please be aware that this method of debugging network issues has major flaws.

The flaws of measuring ICMP Packets (pings) to measure lag – are well known and numerous these are:

¹ ISPs (intermediary) – will randomly drop ICMP Packets on a network. This will then report incorrectly in ping plotter or tracerts commands as dropped packets.
We will see randomly high levels of pings or other such items which does not actually reflect the state of the traffic itself.
Level 3 networks are well known for dropping high numbers of ICMP packets especially cross-country this helps prevent DDOS attacks and is often turned on.

² The actual game traffic does not travel via ICMP ports so we are looking at something else than the actual traffic itself that is being sent.

³ ICMP Packet analysis only works on a network you fully own to give reliable results and is likely to only work for the first few hops of any network traffic. If you are not seeing any packet loss on the first 2-3 hops then it is probably something else that could be causing the issues.

I even have information supporting this from my ISP which I have sent in prior support tickets to ANET and why this method is completely unreliable. We tried to see if level 3 has a problem between Dallas and Washington as a hop- it turned out that Level 3 routinely drop ICMP packets and the other traffic (game traffic is unaffected).

If possible could we migrate to analysing actual traffic (to/from and if the traffic does not reach it’s destination) with a free network traffic capture system: http://www.wireshark.org. TCP traffic which this game uses relys on synchronised Qued in-order communications if one item fails (or the packet is rejected by the destination) we often experience in-game lag.

Why do I suggest this?
This gives every piece of traffic a start time, end time, ISP priority (QoS), duration in transmission (delta time – can be used to measure real lag), acknowledgement of receipt and a much more detailed analysis.

I have numerous pingplotter graphs which look okay (in various areas of the game), but a more detailed analysis of the actual network traffic highlights some major issues are being experienced in the back end (usually packet is rejected from being recieved by server at high load or a desync event has happened).
I know this is more complex than a basic level 1 network diagnosis – but without looking beyond ICMP it is unlikely we will get to the bottom of these lag issues.

Happy to disucss this further.

Still, which is your ISP? Mine is Alice.

The same.But i doubt my network to the problem since i used pingplotter on some other ips icluding some video streaming ones and i had no packet loss at all.In other words i see my internet connection seems to be working as usual outside of gw2.

Been happening to me randomly since last weekend. Most recently just now:

16:49 Frankfurt time, Map: Skyhammer

Super lag as of about 10 minutes ago. Seems to be happening everywhere, not just in pvp

Ip: 206.127.159.167:0

Lag happens all day every day, there is no certain time of day where it lags. Its just a matter of more or less. :’(
Also its not just in PvP/the mists, it happens everywhere, and it seems to be getting worse…

I’ve been having problems for a few weeks now – located in Boston mostly play week nights after 8PM EST and experience 1 second or more skill delay and rubberbanding. I only pvp. Here’s a pingpath capture from the diag utility:

Looks like it times out in the comcast level3 routers on this test? Windows resmon showed my ping to gw2 servers to be around 300ms.

Appreciate if someone could help me troubleshoot – is this an ISP issue? Anet issue? Modem issue?

First game Nifhel with lags.
Second and third game on Silent Storm and Khylo without any problems.
Fourth match again on Nifhel, unplayable again.

Everybody in the matchup (our team and the opponents) had lags simultaneous. The lags were between 1 and up to 5 seconds. F.e. the ‘Time till matchup’ jumped for everybody in the teamspeak from 5 to 0.

WHY YOU LAG SO BAD ANET? WE NEED HELP? DURING THE DAY IT’S AWFUL.

10:00 AM server time

Battle of Khylo

The lag was akin to WvW skill lag. I reference skill lag simply because it occured primarily in combat, with multiple people about. Out of combat, say when the match was over, there was no lag.

This definitely wasn’t graphical lag, brought on by a ton of animations, but latency.

Thank You

Lagging in Capricorn 10:00pm PST.

Less lag during the middle of the day but mostly lagging in SPvP maps. Everything is fine in HotM.

ip: 64.25.38.162:0

map: temple of the silent storm

Everyone was rubberbanding over my screen, skills fired off on a severe delay and I got disconnected mid way through the game.
The game before this was on forest and I was having no lag…

Location: Antwerp, Belgium

Had lag on Skyhammer just now.

In looking at the attached report…it may be my internet way down the line.
