Lag atm?

im still getting terrible lag to
deadman_uk
This lag is really annoying me now!!!!!!
It's been like this for over a week and it's making Guild Wars unplayable. I didn't spend all this money on 3 Guild Wars games to have lag like this, it is unacceptable. Sure if it was for a couple of days fine... problems happen but for over a week now and no official achknowledgement from Anet.....
I often lose connection during a game and I am taken back to the character select screen. Often the loading screen of areas are slow, I sometimes have to wait 50 seconds for an area to finish loading.
Having 10 second lag every minute is not fun... last night I had 1 and a half minutes of nothingness, just my character standing there. My ping was 96,000!

Sorry for the nag, had to let it out somewhere...
A-net do something, this hub in Frankfurt can't do all this for so long ???

Give them time, they are working on it... The best you can do is to try to help them solve the problems.
My lag is reasonable in buisy outposts, its over average in explorable areas and its enourmous in pvp (HA mostly, becouse of the largest player count? Broken tower, courtyard and HoH are awfull, even observer mode goes mad)

Still utterly unplayable, Thank heavens I'm off on holiday and won't be able to play for two weeks as the frustration is killing the fun

Im in Holland, and am unable to play in Euro districts, International works fine though.

It seems fine at times, but just recently it has started becoming really bad again. Beginning to get unplayable again.

Can't see why the server thingy that's causing these problems can't be shut down and those being routed through that one being routed through another one...

i'm getting lag aswell now since a few hours, didn't have any lag before today

I also have been getting lag since yesterday midday, with lag spikes effecting movement and skill casting, its been a nightmare has some of you have all ready experienced.
I thought it was something to do with the massive rainfall where I live (Midland, UK) has had still after reading all your posts it seems I am not the only One the lag has effected.
There is an announcement on Network Support on the official GW Site saying they are looking into the lag issue but hey that was July 1st, I realy do hope ANET can see what is the problem and fix it before this Dragon Festival starts.

Average ping of 961 tonight. It comes in irregular spikes, and between those my ping is 150. Statisticians can imagine how bad these lag spikes get if they manage to pull my average up to 961. Totally unplayabe.
This has been going on all week, btw. Just posting now for the first time because I'm getting annoyed with it. Very annoyed.

Weird though, at home, I have an average ping of around ~150.. While last weekend, when I was at a friend's house (took my laptop for a lan party 
) his connection speed was the same but I got myself a new record! 25 497 ping
Don't know how on earth that is possible, but then again, I'm lucky to still have this connection at home.

Yeah I've gotten lag spikes aswell I'm in the south of england I usually have to log out completely and log back in to swap servers sometimes they don't lag other times they do.
These are the screencaps of the issue I've gotten so far... When it gets like the first instance the PVP area is unplayable I can't play when every spell I cast has a 12 second cast time and then rubber banding everywhere and failing your own spell.

I live in Germany and since the last "routing optimizations", the game was playable for one or two days, but then it started to lag again.
Just another wasted Event Weekend, like the last one. But I really don't care about them, as long as the lag gets fixed.
Maybe I should send a logfile to the support, but as I understand ArenaNet can't do much about the problem.

I swear I will start killing kittens for every hour I have lag!
But seriously guys, no need to start threatening them.
They said it themselves: it's out of their immediate reach.
Besides, it's AFK weekend, so you don't even need a good ping to "play".

Maybe this is the new PvP balancing initiative? By preventing the entire continent of Europe from playing the game, other regions should win favour more often.
Seriously though, this situation is getting beyond a joke now. I tried pugging my new monk through some of the Prophecies missions last night and let me just say that trying to heal a party of mending wammos and tanking eles with an average ping of around 1000ms is somewhat stressful to say the least.

Any news other than the network news on the website? It's really getting irritating and I'm losing hair from stress.

Me and a friend both play from Germany, use the European server and the English districts as default. We've been getting lag all through the last week, spiking today like crazy.

Why would they lie?
The main connection hub for Germany and nearby countries is located in Frankfurt.
So unless you live somewhere completely different, you're affected by this problem.
I live in Belgium, I'm obviously affected.

One thing though, is that I (and many other people, I'm sure) would at least like an ETA towards when we can expect normal network activity.

Unwaking Waters [mission] must put me in the Euro server even when I start from International districts. Could be something to do with the two-team scenario. Until this so called routing problem is fixed, I can't do that mission.
I'd send a ticket to support but I know what they'll say and I know that there's a Frankfurt routing issue. Even if it is not within their direct control, thet are the only people that can do something about it. I can't enjoy afk-ring weekend like this.

Today it started again. Everything was fine till and hour or 2 ago. Even got me a good error 7 again while being on the nine rings (not afk at the moment though). But the bright side is I didn't lose points in the lucky title this time.
Lagg
Well, it is the afk weekend after all, so don't expect network latency to be stellar across the board(walk).
Bwaha. I kill myself.
In other news, I'll go do something else.
Too bad the weather's crap as well.

I was really looking forward to the Dragon Festival, the rollerbeetles and Dragon's Nest, and now I can't do anything.
I'm very grateful for events like this (the double dye drop weekend was the best ever) but you have to be able to play to enjoy it...
I hope this gets fixed soon, because this really sucks.

I haven't been able to play this week, because my ping has been anywhere from 2 to 50 seconds. The problem isn't in my end, because all my other online games and services I use work perfectly.
I'm on a 8 Mb connection in Finland and play usually 5-10 PM GMT+2 and during weekends (but I guess there will be no festival for me with this ping).

Whether you're in the European or International district, you're still connected to the same faulty network hub.
I'm not 100% sure on this, but even if you switch territories to America or Korea, for instance, you'll STILL connect to the geographically closest hub.

The timing between lag spikes is getting less and less, its every few seconds for me right now, and instead of being in the orange when it spikes at around 600 ping, its pretty much in the range of 5k+ ping today. Its getting stupid now, sure i can go without playing tournaments everyday for a few days, but to miss a weekend event that only happens once a year because of the lag isn't acceptable.
I also don't believe that changing districts has any effect. Its still the same in the international districts.
