Guild Wars 2

Starting a few days ago, I began to experience lag. At first I thought it was my connection just being slow, so I stopped playing for a little bit and went to watch tv, but it has yet to go away. Some times I can run around, and play perfectly fine for hours (I did last night), and some times I experience game breaking lag.

My problems include a long delay on my abilities, 10+ seconds, or just flat out disconnects. Again, I assumed it was my own connection, but I have been able to play other games (LoL, sc2, WoW) and watch streams without any connection issues since this started with GW2. I posted on reddit a bit ago, and though others seemed to be having the problem I had, nobody had a fix, so I’m going to try here!

Does anyone have any suggestions?

I also already tried the port 80 thing, it did not help.

Small edit: I also was not actively playing during the megaserver update, so I do not know if it was caused by this. I only started being really active again a week or so ago.

I am having the same issues. I thought it was my internet at first, but after a whole bunch of tests I discovered my connection is perfectly fine. So what’s going on here?

I don’t know, but I really want it to be fixed, it’s ruining my game half the time.

hi i have just started playing GW2 and i am getting disconnecting from game i play other online games wow five years no proplem and other games but getting sick off being kicked out of game asked guild mates on wow about it and they told me its being happing for months thats why the dont play any more not happy looks like back to wow was starting to have fun in GW2 but cant some times i get two or three hrs gaming then kicked but sick off it

EDIT: turns out it may have been a problem on my end and was showing up in some other places, but we’ll see. I’ll edit this again if the problem comes back.

Same problem here, tried the port opening.
10+ sec lag with 200mbps connection…
other applications run without a hitch.

hi there OP. i have had the same problem and i believe ours are similar. only diff is that i did not experience any lag and just random dc from game time to time. been very frustrated about it. hope that anet could help look into this matter. so far i have been told it’s our internet issues that constantly get dc from the game server which made me hard to believe as i had no issues with other online game.

Ok, this isn’t acceptable anymore. I’ve submitted multiple bug reports every time it disconnects me, no improvements or fixes. I woke up a few hours early to do tequatl at 5:30am, the fights going perfect, were on track to have the dragon dead by 8 minutes left on the timer and it disconnects me again. I woke up 4 hours before I have to be at work to deal with this. I sent a nasty kitten bug report, and I really do expect my 4 dragon chests in my mail by the time I get off work tonight.

Please for the love of god fix your megaservers, it’s unacceptable.

Most of the d/c I faced few days ago is on sPVP and WvW. I can’t hardly play on it.

“Good” to hear that I’m not the only one.

It started right before the weekend with DC’s every hour or so in WvW. But today It’s been crazy. DC’d 3 times during the last hour just walking about in PvE?

Would be nice just to hear what’s going on :/

Glad its not just me, odd thing i noticed, is chat is unaffected by the lag? i can chat as normal but the game has died??? only when i truly error and DC out is chat affected?

Same thing here. used to run fine all the time. Now it’s unplayable a good deal of the time.

Exactly same issue here, constant disconnects and lag.

“The game client lost its connection to the server. Please wait a few minutes before restarting the client and trying again. (Code=7:11:3:191:101)”

I got exactly the same since a few days. I can’t play in EB at all anymore without seeing people teleport over the place and have 10s delays on my skills.
Ive been sending tickets also and still no reactions. I wonder if it really is the Megaserver update, because after they introduced it I had no problems at all.

Would love to know how to resolve it as well. Started seeing serious lagging and disconnects after reset on Friday. It has been a consistent problem in GW2 since although I have noted that late evening EST is worse than any other time period.

Other games are not impacted so it appears to be a GW2 issue entirely.

I am having this EXACT same problem and it started yesterday. I have had GW disconnect in the past but very rarely, now I log in and I can only last 2 minutes in game, if I’m lucky, before it kicks me out again. I have tried everything and I’ve never seen this for as long as I’ve been playing. Extremely frustrating as I keep trying over and over in hopes that it will work…I don’t know when I will actually be able to play again. Glad I’m not the only one experiencing this problem :/

“The game client lost its connection to the server. Please wait a few minutes before restarting the client and trying again.”

“The game client is unable to gain access to the log-in server at this time. This is most commonly caused by firewall or router settings, security applications, or connecting through a campus network. For additional support, please visit http://support.guildwars2.com.”

Gonna +1 here just like I did in the other thread.

Same skill delay, lag, 3 or more minutes to load into a map. Always starts around 4:30PM UK time and the game plays perfectly during the daytime.

Really, really frustrating.
