For about 3 or 4 days ago a strange problem occurd.. All people and sometimes even I, warp around: It's like a lag! Very annoying.

Everybody Jump forward like chess pieces. Have you had the same problem as me?.. I have tried many things like uninstalling the game and tweaking my computer but nothing works. If you know anything about this. please report the solution to me!

Strange problem mate, probably it will work out eventually.. Could be the servers aswell.. When factions got released, it was pretty sketchy and laggy for everyone.. Especially in the bigger towns, good luck.

Right now, io cant play cause of that. it has been like that for me at least 2 weeks now.

i have a great connection, i dont lag in anything else besides GW.

everyone is teleporting and jumping in the minimap, if i click on an NPC im teleported to the NPC, but i cant talk to him, its just like lag.

i have been exchanging mails with Anet for some time now, but they cant solve it, and im sure the problem isnt in my end...

But those were some coding bugs (in the bigger towns).

The strange thing is that at one time i can play great, without any sort of lag and the other time i lag as hell.

Same as me!

I get ported to the npc and my character just stands there like a dummy like "What next? ^_^"

Also monsters do it too.... it gets REALLY annoying when a monster pings to my location, or right infront of me when really its with its patrol group far in the distance out of aggro range... i end up clicking and attacking a mob thats miles away.. because i think it has aggroed me

I now know its not my end, as others experience this issue.

Oh, another thing... sometimes when i run around corners, i get warped back around the corner into the most awkward positions that make me need to wriggle my way out again... and it does it more than once every time it does it... this is HIGHLY irritating when running from aggro... as i get warped into the corner then take a beating while trying to run away

Hey guys! Listen up!

When I woke up this morning I could play without any lag, so I was ofcourse very happy. Just few minutes ago, The problem occurd.. - again. It's good to know that im not the only one with this problem. Let's hope that Arena net will fix this bug as it seems to be. I have paid 1000:- sek (125 €) and want to play this shit. What do you guys think we should do? Just wait or make contact with them? // "Confused!"

Balmung Of The Azure Sky · Jul 10, 2006, 05:50 PM // 17:50

I've never had this problem, maybe it is caused by slow connection, but i'm not sure because i play with a dsl (640k/256k) and i had lag one time since november

Sorry for my broken english

Im on 3mb/512 connection... its not connection speed

Aisius · Jul 12, 2006, 08:35 AM // 08:35

I seem to be suffering from the same lag problems.

I have a cable internet connection 512kbs and rarely lag out in other games. Recently however I've noticed that my character jerks alot when running and monsters will port in front of me before I initiate my attack with them.

Farming bosses solo has now become impossible as I could once do this with ease. PvP alliance battles becomes very difficult too now as I'm seeing more of the pathing problems and lagging backwards when going up ramps or round corners. My connection has dropped once from a result of lagging out spells locking etc, though mostly I just see the annoying things happen like above.

Seems to happen around certain times. I'm starting to think it's due to my network traffic in my local region. Playing in peak times seems to be the worst.

Silent Kitty · Jul 12, 2006, 01:03 PM // 13:03

I have that when my virus scanner is updating. It stops when it's finished updating.

levortex · Jul 12, 2006, 02:33 PM // 14:33

you people are complaining about lag, but i can't even connect to GW on my pc anymore and i just played it. I still can play it on my old pc, but there i have that (somekind of) lag too, but that pc is really slow so by me it isn't lag but it is just that it is to slow. anyone knows what to do?? i already updated my router, rebooted the pc, looked with the official netinfotool_allos_gw.exe (wich i downloaded from GW site) and i found out that my ports were open so that can't be the problem, i tried it without virusscan but that didn't help :S

Balmung Of The Azure Sky · Jul 12, 2006, 05:16 PM // 17:16

i dont lag anymore, but i dont know a specific reason.

what i did was:

after windows update downloads stuff, you install and then he asks for a restart, before you restart, go to the control panel and disable windows auto updates.
then restart.

after that, my GW is working fin again.

but i have no way of knowing tis is what fixed it. it just appened to me

Eviance · Jul 12, 2006, 06:00 PM // 18:00

I have the lag too, but not near that severe. We are on cable and everything on my PC is tiptop as well... Heck I even shut down anything extra before attempting to play. There are 3 of us running on our connection and if they lag too then I know its my connection, but usually its just me and I am dirrectly connected to the modem.

I think GW is just buggy right now and that the servers are being wierd or something. I also noticed just after the Festival that I was tripping over imaginary objects again >_< So annoying to be running along and just stop on a very clearly plain area with no obstruction in sight! *sighs*

mobrakka · Jul 12, 2006, 07:18 PM // 19:18

Lag here too. I havent been able to play properly for 3 days. But its not the first time this happens... last time this hapened i had lag for 3 weeks >.< Then one beautifull day i tryed to connect and i got the message that the game was down for maintenence. A few hours later i tryed again and voila... no lag at all. Untill 3 days ago... Imo, everyone having this problem should send an e-mail reporting it to ncsoft support team. The more people complaining, the faster they will look into it ^^

sleepy samurai · Jul 13, 2006, 12:47 PM // 12:47

Ok I got lag yesterday and here are the facts.
My internet connection was fuctioning at peak speeds.
My frame rate was dropping from 60 frames to 12 frames and back. I changed the settings durring the game and no change.
I verified that no other app was taking CPU or ram.

So I was lagging for no reason. My computer is more then enough to handle the game and even at lower settings there was no change. This game is going down hill.
