Guild Wars 2

Since the Megaserver roll-out I have been seeing an incredible amount of lag here in Australia. Most of my Australian friends say they have been encountering similar issues. That’s the first issue. I can propose a solution. Have a single Australian server – you can put it on either the US or EU WvW roster. With the roll-out of Guild Wars 2 in China you might consider Oceanic servers. I doubt there will be a lot of players, but it would alleviate lag and improve our experiences.

Since the Megaserver update there have been a huge number of problems with dungeons. We ran one where, after selecting path 1, path 2 activated as well. Detha followed the group around and we could complete parts of that story with no reward. In another dungeon we were incapable of reviving teammates. Also, my character randomly pulled out his aquatic weapons in a fight. I just had to stand there with a speargun in my hands while the rest of the party wailed on the boss. I have encountered numerous slingshotting issues too. In one dungeon, an AC run, I slingshot back to the entrance of the dungeon. We were fighting the boss when it happened and I got reward for the encounter.

Many times while adventuring in dungeons or open world my skills have ceased working. As a ranger I can command my pet to attack and they will do damage, but skills don’t activate. My contribution to a fight is just to become a very poor meat shield.

Sometimes character die in dungeons without external influence. They just drop dead, and then allies are not able to revive them.

If anyone else has encountered problems since the megaserver update could you please post them here.

From Australia as well and my friends and me are also experiencing the same latency issues since the Megaserver roll out. More rubberbanding, disconnection from server, aquatic weapons activating on land but no skills and weapon swapping changes between the aquatic weapons, with no way to to remove the aquatic weapons. Skill lag with skills just not activating. Lag in combat were nothing seen to happen then everything happens at onces (typical defeated after ). On a whole connection from Australia after patch seem less reliable.

Just replying to this as i am having the same issue, after the Megaserver update the games been somewhat unplayable. Skill lag rubberbanding, dieing and not able to be revived as body is not where it is etc. Have to agree with Bezaron somethings gone funny i think since that update.
