waste of time playing

its now the 4th night of unplayable GWs .....
connection to servers is a disgrace.......
my ping spikes from 64ms to over 20,000 ms........
strange how all my other online games r fine ! ! ! !! ! ! !
strange how my speed test turn out to be fine...
no addware, no spyware, reg clean, cache clean, even turned off all microsoft running apps ....
but try and tell that to guildwars support....
they make you feel like its your problem, not theres!
"do trace, chek packet lose, blah blah blah .......
done that, been there.....
reboot router, chek drivers.....
done that, been there....
run -diag ...... send in the results....
blah blah blah ......
excuse after excuse.......
tell you what, instead of passing the blame onto players, or ISP....
JUST FIX THE DAM PROBLEM YOU HAVE

thats very nice...but we're not guildwars support.

and this is not their forum...

Funny how the pre-searing trolls always use vague and un-specific examples in order to complain. Btw... do you know anything about networking at all?

you mean the problem you have right?

happen to anyone, alot of people get lag spikes, get over it /uninstall ...

I only get a few lag spikes every day...nothing worth my time to rant about it...get over it...QQmoar

At first I thought this was a GW Haiku.

On a serious note, Every once in a while I will get horrible lag spikes for a day or two that don't involve other games. They always pass. It's annoying as hell but it will probably resolve itself.

why are you complaining about it here? Anet has a support area. Now if you had asked how you could possibly fix this problem... no worries there, but you instead felt the need to yell at people who are not responsible for your problem. Nice Work.

/clap... a pre-searing cadet with brains!

Is there a problem ?

big w00t for lag spikes. :>

anyways, yea, to post something like this will only get you flamed, as sad as that is. hope the issue gets resolved. ^^;

>90% these lag posts are really caused by problems on the user's end or at an intermediate network node -- things a-net can do NOTHING about.

So, tracert, post it. If it indicates the problem really is on a-net's end, then you can complain. Otherwise, please do shut up.

We are a fansite, we are not anet or anet support. If there is an issue with the server's you will need to take it up with anet themselves. Also, run the traceroute and see where/if it spikes - if it's at anet's server's then they can possible do something about it, if it's happening anywhere else then you will need to talk with your ISP and try and convince them to change the way they route packets to GW servers (and bloody good luck in doing that.. it cost's a lot to change route's (which means unless they have a LOT of customer's complaining about it, they ain't gonna do it).. and isn't always possible, or will even help).

Anyways, as this thread will only draw flames. as it is.. I'm closing the thread. If you wish to re-post this as a technical issue, try including the following:

- your cpu
- how much ram you have
- video card
- OS
- what kind of internet connection you have
- the speed of your net connection
- isp you use
- a traceroute showing the path taken to the GW server's.
