Guild Wars 2

I have no idea what it is, but whenever the center event spawns, there’s massive skill lag. I mean, skills don’t activate for 30 seconds. Everyone rubber bands. Massive. As soon as the event is over, back to “normal.” It doesn’t matter where you are on the map; doesn’t matter how many people are around you; it doesn’t matter if your in a fight or not.

You guys gotta look into this.

+1 experienced it tonight and didn’t hop back until it was over.

it is lagging everything out. i have experienced it and it wasbad. its also the particle effects everywhere on the keeps and then all the pve mobs that make lage even worse.the map is just not good for wvw battles and pve mobs and pve features. its all nice to look at but horribvle for wvw lag. thats why wvw maps should have been kept simple with very little pve like features

Same here and only 1 side bothered to show up so wasn’t because of three huge Zergs…..

The times I’ve been on, there was hardly anyone doing the Oasis event and so I never noticed any lag. Tonight was the first time I’ve been in a zerg fight in Oasis. This was around maybe 9:30pm Pacific on TCBL. We all experienced a few brief moments of lag where skills were delaying.

We had a lot of fun.

i think people actually tried to find anything likeable about the map today…well we couldnt find anything so we went back to pve farming and eb….

The central event is not just producing lag, it is plain overpowered and stupid. And it is NOT a learn to play issue. Couple of days ago had almost nothing on that map. I put on my blue dorito and we easily did the event. The mega laser destroyed enemy gates or damaged them so much it took just little bit ramming to get them down. Then it was easy to take keeps + towers. But it felt so boring and stupid. It was NO fun.

Arenanet is master to invent to ways to make WvWvW less fun.
