Guild Wars 2

Getting ddos’d again? Everyone on Anvil Rock at least is getting major lag

yep NSP lagging to

same in the Wayfarer foothills.

Yes it is all servers again :/ Same situation. Does scarlet never sleep?

It’s not just Anvil Rock, the forums, as well. In-game, the Models load, but AgentAssets do not…sigh.

Feels the same as when it happened last time (and the times before that). Forums taking a while to do anything as well. Seems to be the case, but I have not seen anything elsewhere online of others being attacked. Strange time of night to make an attack on US servers…it’s not prime time.

Servers cycling between offline and online. :\

Looks like it off to KoA:R for a while.

GoM seems to be it as well. getting Disconnected again and again

Same on Darkhaven

Same on EB

Same on Ehmry Bay and Gate of madness

yeah seems like the same stuff as yesterday. friends on multiple servers all getting the same lag. spvp as well.

I’m really starting to get sick of the quality of GW2 servers. These past few days and weeks have become almost unplayable – heck, I’m most likely going to miss out on today’s dailies because of this.

I’m seriously considering moving on altogether. It’s getting ridiculous.

Both GW2 servers AND the forums are slow as kittening donkeys. Definitely not a problem at our end.

On SoR as well. 30s skill lag then a dc, wasnt this bad last night at the same time

Same for Eredon Terrace. Restarted the game client after checking my internet, and getting error 42’d.

Same issue on Maguuma, it made WvW very interesting

Same on Jade. Might be a backbone problem.

Isle of Janthir lagging

Seems Blizzard just got hit as well.

Working ok for me now.

GW2, GW1, wikis, and the forums are all basically on the same network.

Any server is susceptible to issues. And they are not really down very often. For a game you don’t have to pay a monthly fee for (aside from initial purchase), they do quite well.

Yes it’s irritating, but if you go to another game, are you just going to up and leave when they have trouble? If that is your guideline, then perhaps you should stick to offline games.

Edit: I see that you have other issues going on that are separate. The problem there is the fact normally so many have no issue, and relative few do. That is not something that is easily fixed. It could be that an isp between you and Arena just doesn’t want to cooperate and play nicely. If that is the case, neither you nor Arenanet can really do much about it.

It does seem to have passed. It’s likely Behellagh is right, that it was not another attack but a backbone problem.

Seems OK in JQ for now.

When I first looked there was a lot of red which is packet loss over 5% and a Level 3 to NTT node had over 250ms pings. It looks a lot better now.

yep EB back to normal

got back in, seems to be playing fine now.

It’s not ArenaNet.. It’s a massive DDOS attack happening on the entire Internet. The one tonight took out Blizzard, Steam, CloudFlare, Call of Duty, and several other entire data centers; mostly in Europe, but several in the U.S. as well. BitCoin also got hit with a massive attack, many servers are completely down. There’s really not a whole lot ArenaNet can do about it.
