I guess you dont play many games online - IMO anet do an above average job of keeping their servers up and working with decent connection with minimal service interuption. I just wish my cable provider could be anywhere close to being that good!

I am aware that the situation is not a pleasant one, and I am truly sorry that you cannot play at the moment - but there is nothing we (as in we Community Manager) can do about it apart from keeping in touch with the NOC and keeping you updated once we get new information from them.

So bear with us, as soon as we hear something new, we will immediately let you know.

Above average? are you mad!

Yes it is true that on some events we get insane lag, but its an event and things just might get quite busy, but on normal service anet has done fantastic imo, the ammount of downtime that guild wars has is very rare. even servers and networks go mad sometimes, and you cant really blame anet for it, because it happens everywhere.

I think right now the Team has somethin better to do than update the Server news. It seems to be a pretty big Problem. All servers pretty much down for over three hours! This is exceptionally long for any IT-problem.

I'm not sure they ever update the network section of their website, as over the past 5 years I can only think of one time the servers were down for more than 5 minutes. That day is consequently the day guildwarsguru achieved the most members on the forums at one time.

"Most users ever online was 6,830, Mar 13, 2006 at 05:49 PM." Seem to remember that was for the rollback they did, when ectos were at the rare materials guy for 250g ea or some such crazy low price.

Be patient, regardless of anything else, they've definitely earned that for their near perfect uptime on their servers.

network news are for planned maintenance or after fix reports of emergencies.

today we can't play, servers are down or horribly laggy
but there are never roll back* or crappy things like items losses or whatever happen in some other games

just hope next month will be free



*except exception

I think you misunderstood the previous poster... you practically said the same thing.

No, I am not, but thank you for asking about the state of my health.

Fantastic is not a word I use when describing a game connection. Above average is a good thing. They are not the best I have experienced but are certainly above most - hence above average ... if you prefer then in the upper quartile

Is a game really that important that we get some of the rants posted? It seems like some people are like addicts who can't get their fix. Patience people.

I guess you are correct. Spending 10,793 hours on GW in the last 21 months does not give me much time for anything else.

*wonders if this is secretly a part of the whole War in Kryta thing...*

@highway: geez, chill. They know there is a problem, and they have said they are working on fixing it, and last I checked server issues for any game aren't exactly fixed by flipping a switch (unless it is to shut the game down entirely) so patience. No need to bite someones head off.

And also as others have pointed out, this is a rare occurrence.

You need just to avoid euro district to dodge most of the lag.

Once i switched to int or american everything worked like a charm

I'm getting a (seemingly neverending) background download going on. It went up to 400mB, but is either only giving me a file-by-file total or is starting over every few minutes. I think it's been at it for about a half an hour now.

Like before, I've had no problems. I've been in a few RA matches throughout the day as well.
