i know the title is a bit strange, but i am having a very strange and also very annoying lag for 2 days now (2nd night).

players just warp around me every few seconds - not only in outposts but also when i am in my instance.

i don't mean the occasional warping person - EVERYthing is lagging around me, and i am lagging into it. it takes me 3 steps to cross hero's audience - at least i just see 3 steps taken.

pvp is killed entirely due to that lag, but even pve has become unplayable.

i have an a-dsl connection (2mbit down, 0,5 up) with fastpath -- european isp (sitting in germany atm) connecting to american servers. over a year of gw and no lag like this. usually i am using a router for my 2 pcs but since the lag occured i went back to a direct connection to eliminate the router as source of errors.

i already called my isp who meant everything should be fine - and everything else IS fine - my ragdoll kungfu pings are normal, and i even reinstalled cs:s to check the pings there -- everything is playable without lag: except guildwars...

/pout

anyone got an idea?

Gaile mentioned there working on trying to fix it. The Feb 28 patch ? I think that was the date fixed a lot for me.

actually that 28th patch fixed a crash issue i had on my primary pc...
too bad that i can't really enjoy it now because i am living in this strobe-lightenedd slideshow of tyria.

i am using -perfs to monitor my fps and connection data - and honestly i never had such sucky stats for my server connection. less than 1kbyte per second...

well tomorrow is friday, and as far as i know: a.net does believe in the weekend - so another update tomorrow might fix it.
i shall see and drink my green tea in the meanwhile... time to play dott again ^^

ps: i love constructions like "to be working on trying to fix something" hehe

still no change, living in warp-land right next to lagsville.

funny thing: usually when i lagged in between a mission or match or whatnot my chat-message were lagging as well: but they come instantly.
the only things that are warping around are players, enemies - oh and my skill bar / energy bar... unplayable as is.......
