2 Computers in the same house. Not had any issues until today, started this afternoon.

We’re playing on Aurora Glade.

Switzerland

Swisscom. There aren’t any current issues with Swisscom, according to their service centre.

Anyone else having problems? Massive rubber banding and ping shoots up towards 10 seconds, then plays for a little, before going right back up.

Strange thing is we’re not getting disconnected, even if we can’t do anything for 20 seconds.

EDIT::::

Seems to only affect certain zones. I was playing in Cursed Shore, my wife in Kessex Hills. My wife could hardly play, whereas I was having no problems. If I go to Kesses Hills, I get the same problems.

EDIT 2:::

Just been booted out of Kessex Hills, Err 7:11:3:189:101

Is it only affecting certain Zones for you guys?

If I try and play in Kessex Hills the game is unplayable and kicks me out often. If I play anywhere else it’s seemingly OK.

I have the same problem but dungeons work for me without a lag so I can at least do dungeon runs right now.
Germany
ISP: Deutsche Telekom

EDIT:// Ok now i couldn’t even join a dungeon .. had a dc when i tried to join in and then after connecting again it just said it’s full. So most of the game is unplayable right now.

EDIT2:// Everything seems to be working fine now.

Experiencing the same.

When i play in baruch bay, i dont lag that bad. However on desolation its unplayable (in the heart of the mists). Also when I join a pvp match the lag is HUGE.

—> I only lag when playing in crowded servers. During the morning i dont have any lag.
—> WTFast fixes (althought not 100%) the lag. The thing is you have to pay a monthly fee for WTFast and i thought GW2 was just b2p
—> I dont lag in hot joins, just in tournaments

Oh no! Not again!!

Same here btw, Switzerland, and since yesterday I have big lag problems, especially during evening time.

We Swiss people and many others had the same problem many months ago; starting at 20:30 ca untill 11:30 (GMT+1) the game would become unplayable. Then, Anet did some work and fixed it.

Please Anet, fix this problem again!!

Decided in November to stop playing due to unbelieveable lags till this evening.
So I thought I give it another try and am using Deutsche Telekom and Dzagonur-Server. There were problems for telekom-users last year already – do they have been fixed meanwhile and it is just bad luck that today it seems even worse than before OR were these telekom-GW2-Lag-problems never fixed and still persists or maybe got worse?

I now have 3 Character stuck in loading screens and I am getting annoyed, I used to have the same issue with LA on certain characters, if this is now going to migrate to other zones this game will be unplayable for me.

Honestly this is getting ridiculous and terribly frustrating. Managed to log into Wayfarer Foothills (7 minutes) and no NPCs were to be seen. It was like a ghost town. Running, walking and dodging all react at the touch (or double tap) of a button. All skills take 20 seconds or more to activate. I fires an arrow and was able to run from the Hoelbrak gate to the Borealis Forest waypoint before a arrow left my bow

It is on ANet’s side as it has been about 2 months ago. Most people from Switzerland/Swisscom were not able to play, then ANet did some fixes and it was fine. Today exactly the same situation as back then. Sad thing is that it took about 2 weeks to sort things out back then.

Completely unplayable during primetime and largely (10s+ spikes every few minutes) during the rest of the day.

As i said on the other thread this unwanted stupid patch is making issues for me and so many other people, the game was fine and actually playable, ofc its was working too well so it had to be messed up by stupid patches, is there anyone from dev reading this? at lest tell us your working on it, as am seriously considering leaving this game due to the lack of support, noone answers tickets, forums are ignored and issues take months to solve, might go back to mmos where dev actually care about their customers

They are doing strange stuff on this issue. One mini patch solves the problem for me and then the new one breaks everything again.

I hope they fix it soon.
