I have been getting terrible skill delay(3 seconds or so) for about 8 months and in this time i have bought a new computer but the lag didn’t stop. Also recently my game disconnects every 10 minutes or so (goes back to character selection).

Specs: CPU: Intel Core i5 4670k
RAM: 8 GB
MB: Asus z87-K
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760

My ISP is BT if that helps. Thank you in advance for any help

Well – 2 million angry nerds spamming the login( to New zone) is essentially an organized DDoS..
so give it a little time and tri it other time when there’s less people >_>

I was on EotM and received some massive lag that disconnected me. In addition the forums are really slow as well.

Guild chat has a 20 – 30 second delay.

Well, a drake just killed me while it was still at full health. Apparently drakes have this new skill that makes you lag so you can’t use any skills.
PSA: Drakes will kill you.

Those are costumers, and that problem should have been easily foreseeable when planning to implement new content to a game. I find it hard to believe that they would create new content and items for purchase and not expect people to check them out.

From what people are saying this is a DDoS attack, and may have nothing to do with the players OR Anet.

This is very reminiscent of the DDoS attack in February. Looks like they waited until a new content release. How swell of them.

The forum is most likely slow due to everyone looking up the game server problems. It’s most likely not related in any way. But there are definitely some problems with the game today.

Definatley some issue last night around 10PM. Runing fine until about 10PM CDT (per above times), then unplayable lag (and I usually NEVER have issues like that). My first thought was a possible DoS attack on GW2 servers…..so I quit and went to bed….all good this morning.

Those with long standing skill lag issues should understand this particular report does not have anything to do with your continuing issues…other than they ARE likely some internet connection issue to the GW2 servers.

I was just in Dry Top and everything was great. Moved to Frostgorge (logged in a character there) and all sorts of skill lag problems. I couldn’t get the /ip.

Trying to get back in now. Taking a long time to get through authentication on the launcher. Tried to bring that same FG character in and it just hung.

Seems like the whole thing is going super slow right now. Clicking ‘Play’ on any character just sits there awhile.

I keep getting dc’d and I’m nowhere near the new map nor WvW, its something with the servers.

Probably needs to be looked at, even the login server seems to have a hard time.

Looks like this new hacker is determined to shut this game down. The FBI needs to nail him fast.
