Noah.7951 Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 I love this game and everything is has given me, but im seriously tired of the game always not wanting to work on Tuesday, server delay of up to 3500 ping is not even close to normal, and waiting for 6-8 hours for it to "fix itself" has become annoying, I seriously hope this is looked into as its becoming a huge annoyence.

Yorna.7150 Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Been happening to me as well for the past week til today. I noticed that the lag tends to start around the same time everyday at 11.00 am UTC+8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zagerus.8675 Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 I'm not sure which region you are playing from but either NA or EU side you are not alone. I'm playing from NA side and have been having packet loss/lag spikes since the middle of January. I've been researching the issue and apparently packet loss/lag is a big issue across multiple ISP's and multiple games right now. If you go to cox's internet forums there are several threads about the issue. Some are even suggesting that cox may be throttling traffic to and from amazon's servers. Not sure about that but..

I guess we might have to wait until service actually stops completely before they will fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id say get used to it cuz i dont think anet is going to change it. not like a dying company cares anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rysdude.3824 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Count me in this as well. Spent about 7 hours today in WvW...disconnected from server roughly about 32 times (I counted). ISP is fine, router is fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kong.3280 Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 I'm having serious issues with this right now, and it is ONLY related to my connections in GW2. Everything else is stable. It is becoming very frustrating and difficult to play. The issue has been steadily getting worse over the last couple weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruufio.1496 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 Same problem here from Ontario. Unable to play for days because of massive ping. Pinging GW2 servers in cmd hangs at amazon. I tried everything I could do on my end from flush dns/renew/etc. to reinstalling the game completely. What the hell is going on? Never had this problem before. Ping spikes up to 3k is insane. For me it is also ONLY GW2 that has issues. Changed DNS from 0.0.0.0 to 1.1.1.1 as well and still nothing other than everything else loading faster now.

Ruufio.1496 Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Does anyone know if a VPN might solve this issue? Is it the ISP throttling information to amazon? I am not too tech savvy on this stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
altruisticcoffee.1689 Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Ruufio, I'm from ontario, too, and have been having massive lag issues with pretty much every amazon-hosted service for the past 4-5 days.

Averaging 69 ping right now since the afternoon, as you said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matadornz.7409 Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 WvW is sadly unplayable for me with a ping avg 1.2k(wtf!!!). Anet should have planned to mitigate all of this prior to the release of the warclaw. C'mon anet get your house in order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anet should have planned to mitigate all of this prior to the release of the warclaw. C'mon anet get your house in order. 1.2k ping? I envy you for having such a low ping as I'm getting between 4k to 8k ping or random disconnects and then cant login for several minutes after the disconnect. When its not lagging I can play WvW without any issues for hours but when the lag start the whole game is unplayable. I originally thought it was just wvw and EB as that was worst as SoS BL was more playable but still laggy. Even just running around LA I'm getting major lag spikes. Just trying to mount up takes like 30 second to a minute..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warkind.6745 Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Haven't been able to WvW since Monday. During fights my ping jumps up to around 5k and settles at around 600-1k average the rest of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
islena.2157 Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 I'm having the same problems since tuesday with the new update. A lot of crashes, chat message takes around 8 to 15 second to appear in channel, infinite loading screens...and it happens at any moment of the day. It becomes even annoying to try to play if you know that you'll have do log out/log in 15 times for the evenning :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I start to type, then I have a long delay before letters appear as I type them, and after hitting enter it takes additional seconds for the messages to appear.

Dami.5046 Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Not had that ping but i've had 'freezes' and delays. Mainly in sPvP and WvW by groups. so hoping it's a server issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shinta.8906 Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 for me its since 3-4 weeks like this. unplayable. looks ok than sudden 1k-3k spikes for 1-2 seconds than ok again untill 10s later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesan.4903 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Please do a hard server reboot, or let someone do it. And reboot the routers while at it, lag is insane, and when coupled with being forced to go WiFi only, that gets even worse from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poormany.4507 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 On Euro server and this happens for me almost every Tuesday and even worse during updates. Everything else works perfectly except GW2. So bad that I cannot even load a char for 6- 12 hours whenever there is an update because it gets stuck on the loading screen and eventually error messages out. Really frustrating whenever there is a release and I have to wait over a day to play it because I cannot connect to the server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phoenixxx.8230 Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 I'm not familiar with PingPlotter but here's what I managed to get (pinging IP address while in Lion's Arch)... Can someone help decipher this? My ping have worsened substantially from its usual 250+ (SEA) in the past for the better part of 2 months now. https://imgur.com/a/fJUduz1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
