Guild Wars 2

Is the main reason i dislike WVW.

My FPS is very high but still got terrible lagg when there is some popultion in wvw..

Reason 2 why i dislike wvw:
No population….
how is that even possible.. its wvw!! and most of the time i am alone!! yeah between 20:00 and 22:00 there are some zergs zerging around (and i get 1+sec lagg..) and thats it! the rest of the day NOTHING!

This is really bad.

Let me see if I can help you figure out the difference between framerate and “lag” (there are different kinds of lag, frame lag, network lag/latency, mouse lag, etc etc).

Are you saying that you get great performance, but you see people rubberbanding, or it takes a second or so for a skill to register and activate when you press it?

If that’s the case, neither has anything to do with the other. If your frame counter says you’re getting 90+ FPS but everything is choppy, that’s frame lag, and either your FPS counter is displaying the wrong frame information or there’s something else going on there that I can’t figure out.

This:

Skill lag is server based: The moment you press your skill, you give the command to the server, which should respond by saying “skill activated” (going on cooldown and triggering effect).
However, as of late, Guild Wars 2 had some severe DDos attacks, which result in a longer response time of the server (since it’s being flooded with tons of “false” requests).
