Reddit post from intigo that has a very good analysis of some of the issues that are happening and why the population growth at the time was bad for wvw. Hadn’t seen it posted so I thought I would go ahead.

Summary for the lazy: the current issues with wvw are nothing new, but they are highlighted by the increase in population across all servers. They should postpone leagues until these issues have been dealt with so players (both old and new) can have a much better experience. At the moment, more players for wvw is a bad thing because of the issues at hand.

I quite frequently play on fully queued maps, the skill lag as we all call it has been a known issue and prior to friday was my biggest complaint. Since friday patch the behavior is different. They have introduced a bug with position vectors imo.

This is new behavior since friday patch. It isnt just skill lag. Positions are completely fubar. As soon as i get anywhere near a large group, where i am and where everyone else is becomes completely confused. I often end up dead at the bottom of a cliff i was nowhere near. I can deal with some skill lag, but this is completely unplayable.

The game has been unplayable for me since this patch. As soon as i get near any large group my skills stop working, ppl start rubberbanding all over the map. Prior to this patch i saw ‘normal’ skill lag when there was a 3 way fight in say garri. This has gotten much worse, with the patch.

It looks as though my position vector stops getting updated on the server by my client. Often no matter what i do on the client end, I find myself dead at the bottom of a cliff after 5mins of complete confusion. Please fix this, I would like to play
