Glad to see others are having similar connection issues. I thought it might have been the new firewall I installed.

Had mass lag spikes in RA but I didn't disconnect. I thought it may have to do with something on my side because when I came back, my teammates were almost done with the opponent.

Had to reconnect a few times, and rubberbanded a few times, kind of annoying when you are trying to walk next a shield golem. Nice to know it wasn't just me.

On a hopefully unconnected note we just had to reset our modem.

"Pre-nerf" is incorrect. It's pre-buff.

I'm also a lag victim. It's especially bad in Int. Districts and in parties of 8+ players.

Pretty much all this week and last weekend I've had a case of lag/disconnect where I can't load an area up. It has made GW for the most part unplayable. I know it isn't my connection because this has never happened to me before and also everything else on my computer that utilizes the internet works just fine.

Have no lag right now, but I've had earlier. I came back to my computer a while back, after AFKing, and I had been d/c'ed from my flist and such. Lagged a bit after too.

Since last week I have an average ping of 500+. Normally i have a avg ping of < 100. Last 2 days avg ping > 1000. Multiple DC's last few hours.

I was doing Urgoz and Deep today with our alliances and we got 2-3 players disconnected halfway. Everyone lost connection during these runs.

@ Mystica
LoL, some huge lagg spikes you got. My highest ping ever was during Wintersday Fest 2007 (~60k ping, got DC'ed few secs later).

I think Anet's servers are overheated and should buy some new ones.

Massive lag issues here too (in the UK but on US servers) - also had lots of "connecting" messages when trying to log on and last night I could not load 5 characters who were in our GH. Could load any that were in towns and outposts but it plain refused to load any that were in the GH for about 30 minutes.

BUT the killer was, I loaded my other account up to see it that was having similar issues, and it came up first time no problem, so switched back to my other account and it was sluggish but loaded.....but I was presented with a character select screen with all my characters for that account PLUS all the other characters from the other account!!

Very wierd.

Still lagging like a biznitch.

Entire guild is offline most of my friends list (which is full) is like empty.

And if you can walk around in towns they are like ghost towns.. Kinda makes me think of what it will be like after GW2 comes out and all of us are gone to GW2

Best thing was that I still completed the Assault on the Stronghold and the CoF run. It just took a lot of time

Maybe the adding of the new skill system is the cause of this.

I was having bad lag last night NZ time (haven't been on for 12 hours). Wasn't disconnecting but the rubber banding was awful.

I was getting odd lag spikes. About every 2 or 3 minutes for the space of maybe 5 seconds everything would lag to the point where I couldn't do anything then it'd go back to normal. To say it was annoying would be an understatement.

these things happen (that one's about a half year old), it's often a hop close by the GW servers, if I remember correctly. This is not something Anet has direct control over.

Something tells me that there's a correlation between this and the hacking spree.

As for my situation? You can't lag if you don't log on =P

That occurred to me too. The account thefts, the account blocks (possibly a lock-down by ANet to prevent thefts), the lag. All of these things happening at the same time. Oh, and there was also that mysterious update that Regina couldn't clarify for security reasons.

It's enough to turn you into a conspiracy theorist. Wow, conspiracy theories on Guru? Surely not...

/sigh disconnects interrupted a promising urgoz run for my guild.

I guess we shouldn't have made the attempt in the first place as we were aware of the lag problems but too late for that now. Everything was going great and then suddenly disconnects one after the other. O well just have to hope anet gets this fixed asap
