Guild Wars 2

It is interesting to me that the longer the server lag/disconnect issues go on, the more broken events appear, it is as if the lag on the server side begins to cascade and affect other things as well.

When the servers are reset, events are all working, and few people experience the Lag-festival. Then days pass and more events become broken, more people have lag and disconnect, even more events become broken, and the whole system is in this big hot mess of unplayable ick.

And it’s increasing by the day, its not playable at peek hours with 1-2 second lag on everything, lag spikes random d/c i had an area crash while doing a dragon yesterday and when we all came back the dragon was gone!

Lag and issue is one thing but can we get some responde on this and not been ingnored even the :“we are looking into it” would be nice!

I have taken to waiting through the obvious “disconnect” between my client (what I am seeing on screen) and what the servers are receiving. I have had some interesting things happen. (although the lag deaths are not fun.)

I have had entire events disappear (as you describe) disconnect in the middle of an event and then get back to find the event is “gone” —-This in a matter of seconds to relog. I have explored entire empty zones, no spawns, no people, no players and when I reached waypoints, even the shiny waypoints are not actually there. I have run along side people in my team invisible to them, for long distances, then finally disconnect and been at the point where they were, or thrown back to some distance behind them.

I have lost materials while lagging while crafting. I have sold items that remained in my inventory. I could see someone smarter than me exploiting this, but for me, it just makes me afraid to do any transactions. (including buying gems)

I have also noticed that the more you use black lion, the worse your lag becomes.

Same issue, I’m in a map with less than 10 people, and it is lagging like crazy right now.

Some times I attack and 1-2 seconds later the damage appears but I have been hit many times.
Basically unplayable, I’m in Baruch Bay, WvW also lags like crazy most of the time :/ still unplayable, I have reported this several times and nothing seems to be fixed.

I have a 20 MBPS connection, in other games it’s completly fine, but in GW2 simply, unplayable.

I have spent 15 to 20 minutes in the limbo state, thinking: Wow, is the game losing that many players? Then suddenly get booted from the game, log back into the same spot and had 20 people around me, then hit the lag again, they all disappear, and of course I get the fire all weapons! (as they spin in their recharge state) and everyone poofs, and they say I have poofed. Obviously the game server has no clue where I am or what I am doing.

I was hoping this update was my cure. Nope, level 39 guardian, taken down in lag by a level 14 bandit and his poison that strangely stuck like glue for 3 minutes. I saw all the pretty numbers go off at once. Someone rezzed me and I was still poisoned. Oy.

And …it cost me a get out of dodge waypoint charge and an armor repair.

I’m not even experience lag so much as just the sudden disconnect. I tried again after the patch…wandered on my level 14 guardian for about five minutes, then BAM, error 7 and back to character selection screen with no warning.

I never had any problems until the most recent patch. After the new patch, I seem to disconnect ALL the time. At first, I have slight lag, cast a spell and happens a few seconds later, then it goes to the point where I can walk around and people seem to just be stuck but I can still more. Then everything happens and disconnects me. Im not sure what to do! my internet is fine, no problems other than in this game, and my FPS is at about 61 when this occurs.

Btw, the Pack Bull event in the human area of queensdale is literally broken. If the bull is in the fortress thing on the river, it will never move.
