penguin.9271 Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 They probably sold all the wvw servers for that fundraiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timelord.8190 Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 Anet has set the server limit to high, to many people can join in the same border. Anet acts as it's not a problem, even after they have been told this since the game came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VAHNeunzehnsechundsiebzig. Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 even 2 way fights on Fridays are horrible. There we (because a whole bunch of people suffered it) even got 3s of skilllag. Skillag might be not a problem for anets pet classes. but standing around 4 seconds doing the stupid MS animation and then have the skill NOT go off is a game breaker. Anet needs to fix this. Either implement a way to break off skills right at once OR do something about the lag. One thing that would certainly help - remove the walking aoe spam. Because in my observations, the more necros the worse the lag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arlette.9684 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Figured I'd pitch in after having a rather frustrating hour of roaming with my skills taking 1-2+ secs to activate regadless of whether there was a zerg nearby or not. Boy if I could only get a class action going and get back all the money, we spent on your half made product... oh boy, oh boy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crepuscular.9047 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 you dont need WvW to get skill lag, just the first Karka Queen after daily reset I would get horrendous skill lag, back to normal as soon as KQ is dead; same as Tequatl during defend phase, but only started happening after PoF was released Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sleepwalker.1398 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Recently since about 2 weeks or so, skill lag has really gotten worse. If i go anywhere near a group of 20-30, bang skill lag starts. Ping goes over 4k, i can move around but skill i use will go off after 5 or more seconds.

Nimon.7840 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Got no problems with ping and FPS. I'm like 40-60fps in wvw And 30-50 ping. Not bad. Numbers depending on location But still skillags. Casting skills will make the icons blink like crazy, but there's no actual casting of these skills. It's really frustrating to play sometimes. The enemy zerg just rolls over you and you are like: I pressed all my buttons, still I'm dead and we didn't kill anything, because people couldn't cast their skills.

Shagaliscious.6281 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Everyone I played with was getting bad skill lag all weekend, even in 2-way fights. It seems to be getting worse and worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emprer.7256 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 been getting lag spikes 1k-5k (!) ping during 3 way fights. skills basically stopped responding. Been like this for 2 weeks I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DemonSeed.3528 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 It's especially bad for me today, both on EU/NA, but NA is worse. Really hard to play but I need to do me chests hehe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigaseye.2047 Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 It's horrible. Logged in for the first time in about a month and within about 10 mins, experienced a lag spike of at least 15 secs. Naturally, I died and so, logged straight back out again.

Tigaseye.2047 Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 When you lag so badly you see nothing at all happening to you (even though you're being killed), for a full 15 seconds straight, something is very, very wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anet acts as it's not a problem, even after they have been told this since the game came out. Yep. It's due to greed, pure and simple. Anet aren't the only ones who do this, either. It's a false economy, though - because many people will either leave, or (even if they do still keep playing) will stop spending money on these games.

Dawdler.8521 Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 So the TL;DR of everything can basicly be summed up as WvW is dead because no one is playing it, but its lagging due to the large number of players so Anet needs to quickly lower the player cap so that WvW doesnt die.

I don't think WvW is dead. Perhaps some think it's in decline, but just recently we had a 100 man queue for EB on my server. As for lagging due to the large number of players - perhaps reducing the player cap would help, but I think it's mostly down to the servers they're using now (Amazon).

Stand The Wall.6987 Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 don't worry. next expac they will come out with even more elaborate skill animations, the servers will finally implode, and we wont have to deal with the lag anymore.

Eutuxia.1537 Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 Is there any old mmorpg that handles this many crowds of people without any lag ? >.> I play from South Asia on EU server with 150ms ping and used to spike to 2k or 3k in smc 3 way fights when i had a broadband connection. Few weeks ago i got fed up and starting using my phone's 4g network to play gw2 :P and voila no more lags/packet loss only lag is fps one because of my old rig. Its all bout our network route to anet servers and i feel like issue is on our side unless they make servers worldwide like DotA 2 for example Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menzo.2185 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 I'm had lag issues along all last week, only in WvW. This week too. What's going on? Can't play with that ping oscillation. My normal ping is 150 to 200, which is already bad but I live in Brazil so... it's life. But over the course of this week, my ping has oscilated only when I approach enemy players on WvW, suddenly 5k, suddenly 600, back to 150 then 3k... *sorry bad english Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NanKone.3597 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 same happening to me .. went in to WvW and in any zerg fight i got 4.5k ping .. never happened before ... what is happening with the servers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coro.3176 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I've noticed worse ping over the last few weeks. It's enough that my pull-melee combos aren't connecting any more due to the slight rubberbanding. My ping isn't that bad either - 120-130ish, but it used to be ~90-100. Did they move servers?

Forbidden Virtue.1089 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 It's still very present. I strongly suggest a few developers to get online and join the zerg fights on a reset night to gather more data and start fixing stuff like they've been promising.

Liah.8324 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 It's fine. Time management. Go in, push ALL the buttons, and then sit back and sip your beer. Wait 10-15 minutes, get another beer, throw steaks on the BBQ, and have a glance at the screen. Make salad, simmer mushrooms, put garlic toast in the oven. Glance at screen. LET THE STEAKS REST. Remove assorted sides from heat, and plate. Add a light bit of grated parmesan to garlic toast, and enjoy. Compliment the ol' lady on her choice of dinner for the evening. Watch an episode of designated survivor (NOT season 3) on netflix, and brush your teeth. Change into jam-jams. Sit down at computer, and have a beer. BE READY. Skills are about to be available again. Press 6 to not die ..... followed by ALL the buttons again. Chat with guildies on TS, see what they have on the go for the rest of the week. DOME UP. Floss. Sort recycling. AXE 5. SPIN TO WIN. Go to bed. Do not forget alarm. 0430: Shower. Eggs. Glance at screen. F2 for FULLCOUNTERANDNOWI'MDEAD. Well....we tried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
