Yak’s Bend .. lags for days and days now .. clearly something has gone terribly wrong.

ArenaNet should be out front with information. Tell us what you’re doing to fix this. The game is not playable much of the time.

Remember the political lesson.. it’s not the crime it’s the cover up. When you do not publicly acknowledge the problem you do yourself a disservice, as well as your customers.

I agree with the sentiment that ANet needs an official topic/blog post (not just a post hidden in a thread) explaining in detail what is going on, what they are doing (yes I know it’s out of their control but they can explain it and any action Cloudfare is taking to help the situation), etc.

Not just for me, but because everytime it happens they lose customers that don’t know what is going on. It’s not their fault, but their lack of reponses (even on twitter this time) don’t help.

I didn’t even get a chance to do the marionette event today yet, mapped in 90 minutes early to avoid overflow and got dc’d after the massive lag. I’m glad I’m not on a tight schedule or I might not be able to play this game anymore.

so, if your online stock got ddosed, and you didn’t make on time for a big market deal, then the stock company does not hold any responsibility for your financial damage, right?
i know ANet got nth to do with this ddos, but they are still the manager of this game who hold responsibility to provide safe gaming environment for the user. if they failed on their job, they at least should try to amends ppl who lost their time on game.

No, but if the stock took a tumble due to criminal acts, the criminal is looking at $millions or $billions of damage, especially if it cascades. Most publically traded and private business will NOT fess up to security breaches.

Unfortunately the longer you take to fess up to a data breach, or problem, the larger the damage becomes. Look what happened to Target.

Of course reading up on Cloudflare and what happened to their systems in 2012, 2013, and this week…apparently they get more than their fair share of hackers attacks, and it doesn’t really fill me with confidance.

Of course….having your entire team focus on an outside source where the attack took place, vs. the damage that’s being done in your own business backyard, is not the best path to take either.

I had one of my friends over yesterday to have him check out the game. I was wanting him to get a copy and join in. He saw WvW with the current lag…. Now he’s not interested because it was unplayable. Skills taking 2 to 3 secs to activate, rubber banding etc.
I understand that the current ddos maybe out of your control, but if potential solutions (or even if there are none) could be addressed to your customers it would help a lot.
This is a fantastic game and you guys do great work but the current connection issues are already affecting sales, my friend for one did not buy the game because of it.

Yeah, I know ANET says it is some DOS, but it is too much of a coincidence that it started with the patch from 2 weeks ago.

This should have been fixed by now. Just watching around and hoping the next patch fixes the problem isn’t a good solution.

This has been happening to me again lately for the past 3 or so days. I say again because it comes and goes. Error code 7:11:3:191:101. Seems completely random when I can play or not, mostly just log in, run around for a few minutes, and then disconnect, losing all of my progress.

Incredible skill delay happening on Tarnished Coast today. I assume it’s just going hand-in-hand with the attacks, but I figured I’d report it. The routing from EU-NA seems slow, too.

It took me forever to load into Lion’s Arch (longer than usual) and I was getting a lot of lag. I tried to load into Bloodtide Coast and now I’m unable to load at all. It seems like the lag is getting worse every day. I was having uses doing the marionette fight and other fights yesterday with 30s-1m skill lag and occasional err 7 code. But now I’m unable to load into the game at all. Few days ago I did not have any of these problems.

Same here. It seems to be getting worse. Went from being able to log in and play in unpopulated areas to crippling skill delay in busy places like LA/DR or WvW. Now I’m lucky if I can even get a character to log in past the loading screen.

I’ve had no issues like this in the past (playing since launch) and can play any other game at prime time without the slightest hint of lag. Would really like to see this ISP throttling sorted out. We would all appreciate an update as to what Anet are doing to fix this.

I am having the same issue with input lag. The problem is nothing has been changed with my computer set up. It is just suddenly for the last two days, I have major input lags in WvW map. It usually takes like half a second to initiate a skill. I have never had this problem before.

I’ve done what I can to fix latency on my part. i.e. ISP, GPN’s, Registry fixes, etc. I still am experiencing a delay in my skills, movement, and UI and quite frankly it’s getting worse the more I play. I am afraid to say that I don’t think I want anything to do with Guild Wars 2 if the team can continue to release in-game content, but fail to fix latency and movement issues. This may not seem like a big issue to casual players, but remember that your serious player base is most likely to be spending money at the gem store more than anyone else. Just a thought.

I’ve personally spoken with multiple players on Anvil Rock who have spent over $1,000 on gems and one player who have spent over $10,000 on gems and they have agreed that in about 2 weeks, if the latency issues aren’t fixed, are all moving to a different game. i.e. TES online, WoW, Aion, Dark Souls. I personally have spent over $2000 on gems and feel like I have a say in what you should do. I love guild wars but the latency issues are really starting to kitten me off considering it has been an ongoing problem (over 4 months) and the Guild Wars team insists that game content is more important than game functionality.
