Guild Wars 2

Is there a technical issue going on with the SOS server? Our server has noticed that when fighting SOS and when going to their borderlands the lag is unplayable. We seem to have no lag issues when fighting the other server or when playing in their bl or our bl. Anet please respond!

I have also noticed that this week SOS borderlands have been lagging heavily with rapid, and somewhat suspicious dropouts. Anytime my group or another group would attempt to take a tower, either DB or YB’s players would magically begin to experience severe lag spikes.

The server’s ip was x.×.×.161 and I was wondering if thing might be contributing to why? I have read on the forums that it’s a common issue with that server, and am wondering if that’s the home for SOSBL.

Same in EB, SoS server… it’s completely kittened

That’s the same IP address that was causing laggy maps in past T2 matches. When YB was blue, when SoS was green…

whoever gets those ips is kittened…

Are servers assigned by ranking? That might explain a few things, a stab in the dark here though.

They seriously need to retire the two TSR-80 servers – XX.XX.XX.161 and XX.XX.XX.162.

Does no one at anet work on the weekend? Why can’t you guys look at this or atleast acknowledge the kittening problem… Some people have dc’s in pve after a patch and it get’s fixed right away but stupid WvW has issues has issues 2-3 weeks in a row with certain server ips and you can’t bother to respond….

64.25.38.161 is unplayable to the point have to sit on acs and press 1,2 to defend….

Both me and my Guild are experiencing this lag aswell, it’s making it unplayable. Please fix this.

Terrible Lag. Rubberbanding is awful. Guild was trying to raid and had several d/c.

Much Lag In SoS Bl and EBG

the lag is real please fix

Can’t play on SoSBL/EBG at all

Please fix! Game is impossible to play on this BL with the lag and constant DCings.

It’s actually terrible. These issues weren’t here before so why are they having issues now?

DC every 5 mins, lag everywhere on the .161 ip. Anet pls fix.

Ditto. Unplayable lag on our home BL

please fix Sea Of Sorrows WvW lag SoS Borderland and Eternal Battlegrounds. Even Gismor lags :l

Yes, I have noticed this too. Worst lag I have ever seen. SoS is unplayable at the moment in WvW

It’s completely non-functional and is creating an unenjoyable experience for players on all servers.

Please address this ASAP!

Thank you.

64.25.38.161 is unplayable map (BLUE bl in current matchup). It needs to be looked at. Please address this with a patch or whatever

Oh, Luvpie, yes they do – Anet works on the weekend. It’s just things like WvW’s problems such as extremely lag/latency, constant disconnects, and WvW being down right unplayable for a couple of weeks on certain BL’s and EBG’s do not warrant the same respect or even a response from Anet… unlike things like wine, ale or steak collections having issues:

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/Broken-Collections

Anet, I think a rethinking of priorities is in order here. Not that wine, ale and steak collections don’t deserve some feedback, but kitten, I’d say WvW connectivity/game unplayable issues deserve some feedback too during the weekend.

What say you, Anet?

Where’s our QA for these debilitating WvW issues?

We feel like Rodney Dangerfield over here! And that’s no joke! :/

WoW… speechless.. gg anet

Since this section is largely ignored and not read. Please bump this

Guys stop naming and shaming the IP addresses or you’ll get infracted and banned!

They may not have people working on making WvW playable they always have moderators with infraction hammers.

64.25.38.86. Seeing TCP retransmissions and duplicate acknowledgements. This packet loss is making this game unplayable.

Update on the SOSBL…

The server IP address for our SOSBL is now 64.25.38.113. I’ve been battling there for the last 2 hours and it’s been lag/latency free since it was moved off the bad IP ending in 161. I spoke with a YB player on our SOSBL and he said they’re lag free too. Thank you, Anet. (I assume you actively changed the SOSBL server IP address.)

Now, EBG for Tier 2 NA (SOS, YB and DB) is still assigned to the other bad IP – 64.25.38.162, which is still full of lag. May we please have it changed to another IP address as well?

I cannot put into words how much FUN it is to play w/o the crazy lag and know that when u kill someone it’s not due to them lagging out or vise-versa.

Thank you and please help us with EBG.

+1

Please fix 162 as well and kill off 161
Also Thanks for fixing it..

Great news!
I’ll login later and check out SoSBL xD

I hope EBG is fixed soon.

Acknowledgement atleast that 161 hardware was disabled.

I personally enjoy the challenge of mashing the same skill 3-4 times before it goes off. I also enjoy watching other players teleport around like they are hacking only in this case the server is increasing the difficulty level.

TRS-80. :P Affectionately known as “Trash-80”.

Some of us remember those in action versus anecdote in history…… Anyway glad to see SOS bl / 161 addressed, now ebg / 162 please – that is my playground of choice usually.

Will check EBG again tonight but, Thank you anet for the 161 removal from SoS BL.

I was just getting the skill button flash and DC prior to the ip change.

64.25.38.162:0 is still lagging… please fix it.

Looks like ANET responded! SoS borderlands is functional again with no lag. Sadly we’re still suffering with disconnects in Eternal Battleground on the 64.25.38.162:0 server.

12 hours ago both SoS BL and EB still had extreme lag for me.

i dont think it is just the sos server .

i know i have had bad lag spikes on wsr for over a month now

go to the teck support forum there are threads that have been going on about this that need more attention ..

Maybe it’s not a server issue then but a QoS or load issue. All we can really do as outsiders is speculate. SoS bl definitely saw some sort of improvement though. It’s still not perfect, but it’s better.
