I too have been getting horrible lag. Let me tell ya, it sucks when you're in fights and you can't see or tell what's going on.

Also sucks when you're entering/exiting outposts. Last night I was nearing the end of the Newbie island stuff and you have to go to different places. Load time on the cities were like 5 minutes.

My load times went up drasticly and then once I'm in it takes a good two or three minutes before I'm runnin' lag free, then two or three fights before it settles down.

Yea, as of the update last night I've been having horrible lag in missions and outside of towns. I was finishing the torment missions last night, and everyone in my pugs was also having lag spikes. So it's not just you.

I've checked with members of the Server Team. I'm sure they'll investigate and I'll share any information that they may be able to provide.

ive had a constant stutter problem since the nightfall release.

so far ive defragged, -imaged, reinstalled guildwars, contigged, reinstalled over 7 different video drivers, ran hijackthis, killed every program in background and tried ,virus scanned with 3 different programs, and ultimately reformatted and installed just windows and needed drivers.

NONE OF THIS HAS HELPED.

so i thought connection.
called my isp and had them run a line quality test. it came back perfect.
8 meg down, 356 up.
went to dslreports.com, ran several speed tests from all over the world.
all came up at over 8 megs.

now some people would say its my system.

i get just about 5000 in 3dmark05 and run several other graphic intensive games. oblivion,swat4,css,doom3, and some more i cant think of. and have 0 problems with any of these games.

yes ive talked with support, and so far, nothing they have suggested has helped either.

the only thing that helps remotely, is switching to international districts. cause in town, i can barely move.
