My whole alliance is getting lag spikes, as well as everyone here doing the HB tourney, with more than enough err 7's.

I thought the lag spike was just me. Probably not going to vanquish at all this week.

I haven't been noticing any issues (and I'm in Australia) - certainly nothing as bad as last weekend when my ISP basically died.

A lot of my Guild members and I are getting Lagg Spikes at the same time, even though we are in different districts. We've decided that the people getting the lagg spikes are most likely playing off the same server (cause we are close together), so thats we have decided.

Or routed through the same node on the way to the servers. Should try running tracert or ping plotter and see if you can see where it is happening.

Not getting any lag at all here. But I am having trouble loading. I'll try to zone to another outpost, and the "loading" bar will get stuck, and never load, forcing me to restart GW. Not really a big issue I guess.

And I thought it was just me. Playable lag in past, now .............

11:00 am CT:
Enter game, pinging around 24k, try to change dist, err007.
Log back in, pinging 9k to 50k. Try to map to dif outpost, err007.

After 4 tries, virus scan, spyware scan, defrag. Log on.

Repeats the err007's. Waits till 9:00pm CT, log on, play fine. Minor lag when first enter first battle of mission. Rest of night, till 2:00am, 0 lag.

Edit: Main game computer, wired to DSL through "high end" router. Secondary computer, wireless laptop to same router. Both experience same lag same times, whether or not connected to game at same time.

e7'd twice while brawling, stopped.

e7'd a couple of times in GvG, 3 times in the last GvG we did, once while waiting a new match and just called it quits for now. Way too many e7's, going to try tomorrow and if it's still horrible then I guess I'll have to wait till HB-lagfest is over.

Was on a few times with some guys all spiking same time..even though we tried various districts..al from various countries

I gave up and took guild wars off pc and reinstalled it ..Keeping my template

Lagg at moment is minimal but still there but not as often when before it was totally unplayable

Yea I'm getting hefty lag spikes, pingplotter basically shows red all the way from the server to me so don't think it's necessarily anet. Blame the people downloading pr0n.

I was getting around 1-3k last night on a US district. Switching to International seemed to fix it, though.

Actually, this is the first time I have ever experienced Lag in GW :P

It was working great for a few hours, now I have started to lag badly again.

Lag spiked during a quest in Wajjun Bazaar on my new Assassin and it spiked again trying to do the mission Ruins of Morah on my Warrior.

Other than that, not much has happened, but I have been in the "yellow/orange dot" more often than usual.

Surprisingly enough, I haven't had any lag in Kaineng Center or any of the main towns (Lion's Arch, etc...) compared to missions or any other outpost.

Had lag spikes for the last couple of days. Ping is mostly in the usual range from below 100 to 200, but then it spikes to 1000 or so from time to time. The frequency of the spikes seems variable, but I can't really PvP like this. :/

I'm guessing it's GW, as I normally don't have lag issues (decent DSL connection).
