Guild Wars 2

I just stopped watching the stream in disgust and disappointment: in nearly EVERY matchup so far, there’s been at least 1 DC!

I know that the server instability of the past few days isn’t ANet’s fault, but honestly, couldn’t you have postponed the finals of the biggest tournament you’ve ever held to date for one measly week until your datacentre had its kitten back together?

The recent server instability was due to a DDoS attack, which was not active during the tournament. The disconnects were likely player-side issues.

Biggest tournament you don’t even make any money and its not even lan. I think the gw1 factions tournament was bigger lol.

@Olrun, the DDOS attacks aren’t happening right now but it’s clear their servers aren’t back up to 100% – this game used to be rock solid until a few weeks ago, and then everyone started reporting more lag and connection instability in pvp simultaneously! You can’t tell me that a disconnect in every single matchup, different people on different teams, are ALL due to player-side issues!

Gamescom just happened. That was a LAN tournament. WTS was announced. That’s a $50k multi-region LAN tournament in Beijing, China.

Have you even heard recent news? Or just too oblivious?
