Guild Wars 2

Are getting worse and worse.

I’m usually not one to complain about lag, it happens, but this is getting ridiculous, its been pretty much 24/7 for the last few weeks. It is notably worse at 1 am server time, being 7 pm AusEST.

I’m not talking about skill lag in WvW, thats an entirely different issue.

I’m talking about rubber banding, incredibly slow skill use, movement skills not allowing you to go as far as they are meant to, and objects and yourself teleporting.

If I use Savage Leap or Rush or Swoop (Any movement skills), If I am not going the full distance due to lag, that is GAME BREAKING. Especially in PvP and WvW.

Making up some numbers for a second:
Lets say that Savage Leap goes a distance of 10, with swiftness while in combat.
With this incredible lag it only goes a distance of 5, instead of 10.
Not to mention most of the time your character starts glitch teleporting in the air, effectively immobilizing yourself.
It is a huge problem.

THIS IS A TOP PRIORITY THAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED. BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE.

It makes playing WvW redundant, you HAVE to zerg, HAVE to use a ranged weapon with auto target enabled, and even then its a chore trying to hit teleporting targets.

And no, it is not a problem on my side.

+1
Freezing everywhere, Pve-pvp-wvw makes no difference
Game is freezing every 10 seconds for 1-2 seconds and it’s a game problem because i have no connection problems.
Never had a problem before patch.
Anet pls ._.

Another night of trying to play WvW, PvP and PvE and watching myself, and others glitch and teleport around the screen and skills not work properly.

It is REALLY selling the game for me, I would DEFINITELY recommend this game to other people. Who wouldn’t want to play with this fun friendly mechanic called Super Teleport Glitchy Lagstep?

Along with the lack of a comment on the matter of course!

Not sure how many more nights I can bother pushing through this unplayable lag.

I have no problems on my side either with a 50mbps pipe to Comcast wide open and no one else online during the day when everyone else in the world is at work.

I am chronically ill so I get to devise ways to stay busy and this is one of them.

The lag has, as you say, been getting exponentially worse – and I am NOT lowering my graphics YET AGAIN ANET.

John! Answer this one!

This has started getting worse and worse, and now it has reached the pinnacle of unplayable. It hit the mark with the release of Boss Week, where I would see the same symptoms people here have described and I’m running a 75Mbps line with a 15Mbps upload pipe at 3ms latency to closest router for my ISP. This is ridiculous. Today, I’ve been getting a ton of time-outs which isn’t letting me finish my personal story on my alt toon.

I know it’s not me, I’ve been monitoring the network status these past few days. Anet, PLEASE fix this!!

I’ll add my voice to this. My friend and I both experience lag issues just now (i was doing an event, he was trying to do pvp) I disconnected at least 4 times in that one event, and numerous times i had to wait thro 10+ second long lag spikes. Other functions using internet (teamspeak and such) are working SMOOTHLY and only GW2’s connections seems to be problematic.
