Red latency spikes.

Loading back into game after a hangup on login, hear sound..hear people messaging me and the bar says fully loaded but I am still seeing just the loading screen.

Been happening off and on all night. I've restarted, reset and whatever else I could think of, but this is getting severely irritating.

I was also experiencing a lot of slowdown on ncsoft website and the guild wars wiki.

Frozen in place again!! What a treat.

Hanging up on every district change, or map. Places I've been a billion times and it's taking forever to load.

I actually was about to post a thread about this lol.. I don't have any problem in guild hall, but it takes about 1min to load any other map and i usually end up freezing 30 seconds later

What's fun is that i don't get err7... i can still chat( i see what my mate is saying but i can't see what i'm myself saying) but the screen is frozen, noone is moving , etc...

Working fine here, sometimes you have to reinstall guild wars after they've done an update or if you haven't loaded GW in a while. Might be an easier method but I've been forced to do this a couple of times...

I had some problems yesterday night as well (Western Europe). I didn't disconnect, but from one moment to the next I found myself lagging horribly. I restarted GW and was still lagging. I didn't disconnect automatically though, and it seemed ok after a few minutes, so I don't know whether it was a GW server problem or if windows or another program decided to start updating without my permission again >< (if windows checks for updates I get red lag spikes)

No it is Anet, nothing to do with anything else.

I'm getting a ton of error=007 and generally, after I get the error and try to load back in, that's when the loading freezes and sound just.. is what it is.

All the while though, conversations are sporadic as I play catch up and many times I send a message that doesn't appear for awhile. A LOT of rubber-banding.

As someone else said above, I too can do anything else on the web, with exception to any A-Net, or NC-Soft pages. Has anyone else tried this?

I cannot even log on to 4/10 of my main accounts characters now. Once they get the 007 and dc out, that's the end of logging in on that toon. I get hung up on the loading.

What the hell are they doing? Backing up stuff? Maintenance crap?

Whatever the hell is up with servers, be nice if they posted something about it or sorted it.

Not everyone will be having issues, depending on net topography I guess, but I am talking to a few dozen on vent with identical problems and we are not happy to left in the dark about it.

Awful here too, takes a couple of minutes to load into any map, pings are averaging about 8000, frequently getting frozen on the spot for a minute at a time.

Pretty bad here too intermittently (east central US), sometimes ~75ms, sometimes a few thousand. Currently in the one dungeon where you need to run around lighting braziers.. makes it a lot more challenging to get them lit lol.

Extreme lag here in US East Coast. Wonder if it has something to do with all of the flooding affecting overall internet on the East Coast insofar as Anet servers are concerned? Rest of my internet connection seems fine.

Dunno.

All of my characters are in American districts. I can't use any of them. Either times out with a 007 or loads the district then I'm unable to move/map out.

Masterful work Anet.

So much for taking advantage of the lightbringer weekend. -useless whining-

Not resolved here. Having to close the game out, and reload. I've never seen districts so empty so, I know it's affecting a lot of people.

Wow, not sure what the problem is, but I have been in limbo for over 10 minutes. Not disconnecting, just stuck in the middle of a battle. I can hear my heroes now, "What the heck, is he AFK again?". Weird, talked to someone in Virginia and he has no problems. Yet Maryland, is fubar as far as playing GW goes...

As someone posted earlier which I tried:
I was having the mega lag spikes others in the thread had here from one of the 64.xx server addresses, playing in International or American districts. I switched to European English which is 206.xx, and I don't have any issues. Hopefully this helps a few other people until this is fixed.

So, sounds like something going on in the eastern US is screwing up the game for anyone routing through there?

I have never experienced anything this bad since buying the game 5 years ago. I don't know what's going on but I can't play at all with this lag.

(I'm also in the Eastern US.)

Took a couple tries to even connect to GW. I was trying to load TOA, but I get in my GH just fine using another character. Ping is stable. I'm almost afraid of trying to load TOA again. Or any other place really...

I am able to load maps, but as soon as I do and try to move I get stuck. Attempting to change districts now to see if that has any effect, but so far that resulted in error 007. You win this round, Nulfastu.

I am having the same problems in Alberta Canada. Takes a long time for the loading screen to clear. And once finally inside the outpost, can't do much, and then get 007 after a few minutes.
