So this is kind of a write-off then eh?

I guess I'm next logging back in when the Z-keys get released.

Life's too short to play laggy games.

You think you have it bad, I can't even move, and I live 10 min down the road from the Anet offices in Bellevue, Washington >:O

Esprit · Oct 04, 2008, 04:00 PM // 16:00

Getting Code 007's just sitting in the Alliance Battle staging area, not to mention the freezing and lag spikes during the game.

I <3 Arena weekends. /sarcasm

Smash a rock through their window with the note:

"If this rock was in the game, it would have disconnected from the server mid-air."

Zepolak · Oct 04, 2008, 04:02 PM // 16:02

Hum... That's just so random... 3 hours ago, I was one of the few during GvG who was able to load, and now, well I am in the process of being spiked by err40 builds...

Nerf that please ! Nerf nerf nerf ! Err40 is imba !

Demonstar · Oct 04, 2008, 04:06 PM // 16:06

Okay, so yeah. Today I'm having lag trouble. Disconnected right as my RA team was switching matches, so I was booted out. Bullshit.

own age myname · Oct 04, 2008, 04:12 PM // 16:12

Wow this is fun. /endsarcasm

Done playing until this is fixed...

Cale Roughstar · Oct 04, 2008, 04:14 PM // 16:14

Yea, the 5-10 second lagspikes make it really difficult to play anything.

When your monk err's out in the 10th match, you know it sucks.

Sergeant of Marines · Oct 04, 2008, 04:16 PM // 16:16

WTB ArenaNet new servers. Th lag is just horrible.

Nude Nira · Oct 04, 2008, 04:20 PM // 16:20

It won't get fixed, Regina MAY post and say, our "guy" looked at it and no problems here! It's client side!!!!

Nessar · Oct 04, 2008, 04:24 PM // 16:24

Here in California, getting horrible lag. I cant monk for shit now ><. Was going to ra, but nevermind now -.-

Random pings ranging from 10k-20k

**cosyfiep** · Oct 04, 2008, 04:25 PM // 16:25

couldnt even open my bags or change heroes in towns....really really bad lag (try playing a mesmer---lag is so bad I cant interupt anything).
gave up for the day....instead took inventory of which elites my characters are missing so when things get back to 'normal' I have an idea of what can get done..

thanks for the laggggg weekend...will go shopping now.

High Voltage Killer · Oct 04, 2008, 04:26 PM // 16:26

Server Overload ftw!!!

Im about 10-20 minutes away as well and I end up dying after 2 minutes of farming thanks to this lag.
My normal ping is 46 but its 200 today with spikes over 3k.

She can say that all she wants but when theres this many people having the same issue its NOT client side.

Lycan Nibbler · Oct 04, 2008, 04:33 PM // 16:33

I think its anets answer to balance the monk overload in RA.

I just wonder in general if the load going through the ISPs goes up on weekends? Ive definitely noticed a pattern with my Cox connection when I've monitored it here in AZ.
I've started hanging out in Asian areas to minimize issues, so far so good for me but Im only in PvE atm.

Off topic - It would be nice to have an event NOT on a weekend - you know, just for a change for those who have work and families on the weekend...

glacialphoenix · Oct 04, 2008, 04:51 PM // 16:51

I usually have ~400 ping, it's been jumping back and forth like crazy. Was farming Gates of Kryta and suddenly experienced a 7k ping right in the middle. Happened in AB too, both sides were complaining of screen freezes and rubberbanding. Also got hit by a massive 50k ping spike at the same time as my guildie =\

slowerpoke · Oct 04, 2008, 05:08 PM // 17:08

i think anet have too few servers and everytime the population increases over certain point, usually during an event, they get overloaded.

strange that while the overall population is getting less the lag seems to be increasing. guess they switched to the budget servers

Kashrlyyk · Oct 04, 2008, 05:13 PM // 17:13

So ANet should stop having AB weekends till they have enough servers?
