Guild Wars 2

Reset night (5-17-13) was…interesting. I watched/listened as massive groups of people were disconnected from WvW. Some were getting error messages when their queues popped. People were just constantly cycling in and out of WvW all night long. I just gave up for the night. Today, I go into a BL with no queue, but still have lag issues in my first battle followed promptly by a disconnect. What is going on Anet!?

The lag seems to be very random, not the usual skill lag when more then 2 people are in one spot.

In Tier 1 (as a SoR player) JQ borderlands is giving all of us extreme lag dispite nothing happening in the map, yet all other maps are fine.

Yup! That’s the BL I just got kicked out of.

FABL was like that in Tier 2 for 2 weeks but now it seems fine. I suggest that perhaps they are cycling some crappy hardware through the tiers so no one group of people is affected. It never got better though, till it was fixed completely. Good Luck.

I can vouch FABL in Tier 2 was very solid compared to last week. I was thinking it had to do with the player participation but every BL had queues.

Skill lag is slightly better, at some big fights that before we usually get skill lag we’r are not. But something is going on, something is wrong, at some points we’r getting a massive lag that sometimes takes like 3-4 sec to get back and when it doesn’t you get DC’d. But Anet should be aware of that by now and we should expect a fix soon.

Its gods way of saying, “keep out of Jade Quarry borderlands, Go to Blackgate borderlands!”

Same thing was happening in T7. Still happening a bit today. We were thinking it was local…but it appears to be more widespread now.

LOL

If you think there is a fix coming soon, you clearly do not in the least understand what causes the lag in the first place.

I would really like (but am not expecting) a response at least acknowledging that something is very wrong with JQ BL. Whats going on Anet?!

T5 here, and overall lag seems to have increased for me, but that skill lag issue seems to have subsided quite a bit.

I am constantly throwing attacks that dont hit anything though, and I get nothing as a response from the game (no damage numbers, no “missed,” “blocked,” etc). I assume its kind of like the dolyaks, where the model simply is not where the actual hit box is. I have died many, many a time to this recently as I apparently render quite fine to others, lol.
