Default The Great Big Guild Wars Lag Experiment

The Great Big Guild Wars Lag Experiment

This is something I've been working on for a while. It's a short survey, designed to try and get to the bottom of:

- Why people experience lag in Guild Wars
- The most common problems people have
- Where the most lag is in Guild Wars
- Which ISP causes the most lag for people in the EU/US


I'll show the results in a month's time (29th September), and we can (hopefully) get to the bottom of it.

It shouldn't do. You can only do the survey once.

Some interesting info so far:

22 people have completed the survey
The most common error code so far appears to be Error=007
The most common (only just) symptom so far is the classic Lag Spike.

You wont accomplish much, we already know what causes lag and why it happens. If you want less lag, get a better well known isp that has the service and connection to back it up. Even then, network congestion and interference are near unpredictable to lag will always exist.

Anyway, filled out. Im curious to see some results.

I bet I was the first to fill it in. Mine was probably the only one with Plusnet as ISP.
