Absolutely cannot take it anymore.. Reset lag just gets worse every single week. Arena net, get better servers and make the cap size for people on a map bigger please!
it’s not even lag, it’s bugged. Tried 3x tonight.
Everytime I got in WvW, after 1-2 mins, all my weapon skills got locked down (Utility skill = ok and move / dodge works as well).
Relog will solve the issue but once I get in WvW (any map), after 1-2 mins this gonna happen.
What I can do????
Try being a commander in this lag fest lol. I love WvW…when I can use my skills. But todays lag was horrible. Getting instructions to take my zerg through Bay gates but on my screen I see gate at 90% Then I randomly die and rez 3 times. I see all zerg teleport inside bay keep and a bunch of people die at once. In the mean time my zerg is like i can’t use skills…I think I dced…am I lagging? It was funny night but something definately needs to be done about this. Its not internet problems, Its server problems.

I really think this patch may have messed something up. This week seems significantly worse than last week, by a big margin. Last week I was in the SBI/SoR/SoS match (which on reset night was full queue vs full queue/etc).. This week SBI/FA/DB – similar number of players but much worse lag. In fact it appears people are running in smaller groups because of the lag, and the lag is still worse.. I hope devs will look into what might have caused this..
I heard some where, either on these forums or a GW2 dev video, that the people at Anet working on performance have some performance updates coming this month or next.
I had so much lag that I had unlimited endurance for 5 minutes but I couldn’t use any skills so I guess that stopped me from becoming an all powerful lag god.

Apparently, someone thought it was a good idea to (attempt to) bring more players into WvW, even though the “server lag” only worsens with larger fights. It’s done nothing but compound the problem, and tonight was a very unpleasant experience because of that fact. I don’t look forward to my next experience.
Perhaps when media-hype advertises massive battles (or anything else, for that matter), it should be tested beforehand to see if the engine can actually support it. Remember the Karka Invasion? :-) Those are the epic battles we can look forward to in WvW!
Yeah if the 2hr queue wasn’t enough of a kick in the nuts the skill lag tried to make up for it with comically funny clown car types of fights. The hilarity of warping yaks, supervisor RI that lags for extra 20 second of invulnerability, skills firing at random times and never knowing what will work when certainly got a lot of laughs tonite. Luckily our guild doesn’t take this stuff all that seriously so we could make jokes about it all nite but I am sure there was some ragging somewhere. The best one I heard all nite is that ANET decided to change the game to turn based combat to fix lag and we started taking rolls to see which skill we would try next. ~^

Before, I had just skill lag during fights in SM, now also if I stand alone on a meadow, all by myself (except for a moa or 2)…definitely has gotten worse, and I play in tier 1, so it was always crowdy. DCs are same as always I think. (What really annoys me though are all the achievement hunters that just run around in the circle in the ruins or waste supply to get their repair/build achievement…but I guess that is a different matter )
Yeah same here, usually the fights around this time for my server are small-numbered from all sides. Very unusual to be DCing ever 3 minutes and skill lagging left and right; so it is definitely not due to the population in wvw. Very unplayable at the moment for me and my party members X_X
I’ve just transferred from sos to bg last week. after a week of some good wvw, tonight I had my first experience with the game being truly unplayable. I mean everyone has experienced the skill lag of a 3 way server battle in sm, even on anvil rock. but reset had another level of lag I had never seen before. I would be able to walk more or less okay..but try to static a zerg? or wall them? FORGET ABOUT IT. I couldnt even use utilities to save myself. I could really only cast autos. and even then, sometimes my auto would bug out and my animation would sputter like a machine gun, doing no damage. when fighting a long battle in keep, my aoe circles (and dmg) sometimes simply disappeared. only autos could be cast and landed with damage with any precision. good thing eles dont need to swap attunements or cast any spells besides autos c:
my guild just logged off after that long fight. it was just unplayable…please do something anet.
The “recent” lag issue started long ago, at least it started with teq patch on my side. They have been working on skill lag for some time now, but I am not sure if this is the result of their work we are seeing ingame.
I shouldn’t tell this in here… but it can be easily be fixed so you don’t have any skill lag anymore.
You know how some groups can beat bigger groups? Its because they can use all skills not only the number 1 skill.
So here is the big secret how to play wvw without skill lag:
Don’t run in groups bigger then 35 people and stay away from other friendly groups.
Please keep this a secret. Its a bit overpowered when you can use all skills.
It’s almost definitely something with this most recent patch (halloween + leagues).. I also heard about yaks stuttering, and saw several people die in the middle of nowhere, with no enemies or mobs in sight. They were just walking along, and suddenly were dead.
It’s so horrible.
So so horrible.
All you can do is spam ‘1’, as nothing else works.
My button mapped to heal is near broken from my rage at spamming it and nothing happening.
