Massive lagspikes in UW

Seriously, this is becoming a real problem. I've been trying to do UWSC with my alliance for the past 3 days and in 1 out of every 2 runs either a massive lagspike ends up killing half our team or someone error 7's right after grabbing an important quest. And people's internet and vent work fine during these lagspikes, so it must be the guild wars servers at fault. Is anyone else here getting this problem or noticing how crappy the server's performance has been the past couple of days?

btw, i have no idea which forum this thread belongs in. If any mods know where to put it, I'd be much obliged

Yeah it's annoying. Anerf have done it again.

With all the recent lag spikes and heroes canceling their skills (killing their own energy while they're at it), GW has been a little frustrating =/

Yeah, they're pretty bad right now. Survivor characters be warned.

i had about 10 dcs tonight.

I've also been having major lag spikes. Started yesterday but considerably worst tonight.

More than a little irritating. I just did a HM gloom run, lagged out at the last boss. If GW wasn't free, I'd have cancelled my subscription by now >.>
wtb better servers...

My alliance has wiped in about 6 or 7 UWSC runs due to it. And although we managed to finish (somehow in record time) there were about 10-12 dcs during our DoA run.

I have several disconnects and massive lag surges as well. I hope they manage to fix the server somehow.

I have had 5 runs so far where atleast 4 - 6 ppl in the UW SC team have all been wiped out by 1 single lagspike.

WTF Anet? Get your SH!T together!

I've had disconnections in the following places in the last 12 hours:

- Perdition Rock (Helping someone get to Ring of Fire mission)
- Rata Sum (Raptor Farming)
- Imperial Sanctum (before vanquishing Raisu Palace)
- During the mission Genius Operated... blah blah, the G.O.L.E.M. one.
- During the mission D'Alessio Seaboard.

So just about everywhere except Nightfall...

Is there a possibilty the spikes are due to Anet being hacked? The lag has been getting worse over the last few months.

My alliance was doing Urgoz's last weekend, and several of our alliancemates were just getting dropped left and right. We had to restart one run because one guy got d/c'ed out and couldn't come back in...he had Necrotic Transferal...so needless to say we had to restart.

Had it happen right after a dood took servants of grenth, friggen ice king died too fast.

Also, figures this is happening right after i started a new survivor character. Gonna have to be real careful lol.

I was disconnected twice whilst I was running some guildies to Droks >_>.

I'm just advoiding my survivor until this seems to have sorted itself for a while lol.

i have been experiencing bad lag on gw for like the last week....kinda glad to see its not my internet provider.

Personally I haven't had to many problems. Have you all tried cleaning up your PC's a bit. Defrag your GW.dat file, clean up temp folders run spyware scanners and blockers. All these factors can lead to you connection and over all computer performance. OH and btw porn=pckiller.

Are you telling me my pits terra, mtns terra, wastes terra and chamber sin all havent defragged their .dat file which caused all of us to lag out in the space of the same 12 seconds? Try to think before you talk plz.

Kthxbai.

What zidane is probably trying to say is not everyone was getting lag so I can't be guild wars servers 100% and to just defrag anyways to help from the lag spikes to stop or not happen as much.

my friend Miko was booted in the last minute when we were about to finisha HM mish =\

its impossible to play like that
