I’m a big mmporg player, have been since the year dot. Love PvP. Never gave GW a shot. I stupidly preordered GW2 which I played briefly before life commitments saw to that.
I’ve tried and tried to come back, but I can’t play. My lag issues started at the same time as op. I’m still having the same problem on a NEW ISP and a NEW rig. It’s YOUR end AN.
I’ve forced myself up to level 17, took ages, many deaths and in game currency a noob cannot afford on repairs. I’m not spending on currency, just to buy myself out of lag repairs.
Today I’ve uninstalled the game. Anytime AN release a game or the guild wars series is plugged. I’ll be sure to voice my diabolical experiences on the forums I use. NEVER again.
Weird how 75% with lags are Sky Broadband customers (including myself), maybe there is a problem with Sky and the Guild Wars 2 servers as there’s not many BT/Virgin customers having lags :s.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. It stands to reason. Sky is probably the largest ISP in the UK right now with their bundles. So more people, more problems.
I had this problem on BT. I then switched to sky which provided a faster more stable connection and the problem is still there. I don’t think AN should be given any excuses to not sort this out.
So many Sky customers….
Please guys, phone Sky tech support and ask this to be raised as a complaint on your account, I just have as this has been going on 45 days for me now.
There is a thread on their help forums, and so far the best response has been:
" I had spoken to one of my colleagues about a similar issue and he said that it will be down to one of the intermediary servers dropping the connections – when they get busy rather than causing everyone to slow they “lose” a few packets so the majority of users can have uninterrupted game play. At least that was his theory anyway."
It is NOT sky. I am a recent customer of sky, just switched. I was having this problem on another ISP before the switch.
It is just a coincidence at it probably the most popular ISP right now.
It is definitely an AN issue. I won’t be accepting, check your ISP.
I’ve had it for other a month. On TWO different isps as I switched and on two different rigs.
Something is not right their end.
Dunno. I have had this problem nearly a month now. Over 2 platforms and 2 isps.
Lag, bad lag, or disconnect.
Game is totally unplayable.
I have a high spec pc. Which was on BT internet. Which I noticed around May. Started giving me huge lag spikes.
Recently bought the latest top end MAC and changed our isp to sky. Which is much faster and better ping. The lag is now totally unplayable on any platform. PC or MAC.
It is not an ISP issue, this is at AN’s end.
