Poor ping to GW servers compared to other US servers
I don't know why, but I always get pings of 350 - 500ms to GW servers. This is extremely poor when my average latency to most other US servers from other games is only about 220 - 250ms. These servers include Battle.net gaming servers, League of Legends servers, Steam servers, websites such as Google. Yet I've hardly ever get pings lower than 300ms to GW servers, and even if I do, it doesn't last very long.
Occasionally my ping to GW servers will spike up to about 600 - 700ms. Heck, for about 3 weeks during Wintersday, my ping was averaging 1000 - 2000ms. It was pretty much unplayable during that whole period.
Does anyone know why this is so? I'm afraid it'll continue like this even to GW2.
