Curse

I have been experiencing quite the same as everyone else. hot trader spots, LA, Droks, Ascalon (mainly 1-2 districts) are horrible. I will find myselfdoing the whole running man while standing still quite often, as well as trades being laggy. As far as instances go, for the most part it's okay, but I do find lag and net errors more frequent than before.

poor matainence? In the 7 months I have had the game i can think of only 7 or so day where I had any sort of lag problems. More than half of those days were incredibly mild. Today has been really bad and after 30 min I had to stop because they game was unplayable. It will probably be better tommorow

I also experienced unusual lag in past few days, and some err7.

[FnG] Lazz · Feb 27, 2006, 10:29 AM // 10:29

Yeah, I have noticed a lot of warping around, mainly in Ascalon, LA and Yaks Bend. Also noticed that 50% of the time, this site is down

I've noticed some lag but not too bad. A friend has been having lots of lag and err7's the past week though.

Big_Iron · Feb 27, 2006, 11:30 AM // 11:30

Yeah, lots-o-lag lately. I've been all over the map and have expereinced it pretty much everywhere. I'm hoping it's just due to the upcoming update.

I've been getting hit with horrible lag also over the last few days. Any time I'm in some crowded town, such as LA 1 or Droknar's 1, the lag is terrible.
Also I have been getting this lag when out running or in Tombs where none of my skills will activate, my chat is delayed, and it keeps teleporting me back to a certain spot, so I'm unable to go anywhere until the lag stops. And this lasts 4-5 minutes, it's really horrible. It's happened to me the worst in Tombs, hit me once when running a guildie to Dunes, and I also had it when running a friend through the Jungle outposts. I don't know what in the world's going on, but at the minute this lag everyone is having is making the playing of Guild Wars very frustrating. I've also noticed Guru being very slow in loading, and also has been down frequently (getting a page saying "database error").

As I said before, all I get is horrible lag spikes in busy towns and only when I face the 1st enemy I encounter..however, I have never gotten an err=7 from it yet...YET...

This is the reason I love Henge so much now lol.

I keep getting lots of lag in LA, but im ok (ish) in ascalon city. Dont really bother me as ascalon is better for trading

But LA is not really that busy so dont understand why it lags so much there

Griff Mon · Feb 27, 2006, 01:28 PM // 13:28

Yea, me too, especially in Lion's Arch and I got booted out of a THK mission with an Err 7 message.

xxSilhouette · Feb 27, 2006, 01:33 PM // 13:33

Last week I got an Err 7 message two days in a row while in the middle of a mission, One was THK and the other was Dragons Lair - But as far as being in game - i haven't had any lag at all - not more then usual anyway.

boxterduke · Feb 27, 2006, 01:41 PM // 13:41

It was sooooo annoying yesterday in Droks 1.
LA was not as laggy.

WasAGuest · Feb 27, 2006, 02:56 PM // 14:56

It's been horid lately, the lag that is

Setting up a combo with a team mate is nearly impossible now. Whatever the cause, it really needs to be fixed.
Team mates are in diff parts of the world, different ISPs so it's gotta be Anet updating or something on the server end.

MasterThrawn · Feb 27, 2006, 04:25 PM // 16:25

You know I thought maybe it was just a lot of people on or something this weekend, but it seems as if it has gooten worse. Never used to get lag at all. Not so bad in town, but when you're in Tombs.... not so good.

TwinRaven · Feb 27, 2006, 04:48 PM // 16:48

Well, I can't even get on now, it is so bad. Maybe cuz I'm using dial up today....

Dawgboy · Feb 27, 2006, 07:01 PM // 19:01

I lagged bad at the start of a pug mission over the weekend. There happened to be a LOT of monsters just outside town. I sat there helpless while half the team died- not a good way to introduce my healer to 5 strangers. Not sure if they believed me when I said, "did anyone else lag?"

Ghull Ka · Feb 27, 2006, 09:47 PM // 21:47

Lag is bad lately. Whenever I enter a town, and at random times while in town, I will "rubberband" all over the place. I will "glitch" up to the merchant and then appear at him 20 seconds later. It is happening much more over the past couple weeks than it ever did before, and it is happening in any populated town.

Keeper of Birds · Feb 27, 2006, 10:08 PM // 22:08

This happened to me last night- I tried to click on a rockshot to target him with SS, but with lag, I ended up bouncing right over to him and into the middle of his flame trap- one second I am halfway across the bubble from it, the next I am right next to him and on fire.

It's been bad at outposts too. Never had any problems until recently.
