Calisanna.8732 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 The last two days I've been having huge skill delay, and major lag spikes. High ping issues. Unsure what has changed, but it is unplayable. Ran a speediest. My internet is fine. Average ping for me is usually 70-90. Last two days it goes over 1k. Im lucky to have an average of over 200. Whats going on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral Stukov.8791 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Me too. I'm from SEA region and almost all of my friends couldn't play properly without using VPN services ( and sometimes even with VPN the lag still persist especially in wvw and pvp ). I can't really pinpoint the exact time when this all happened ( maybe 2 weeks ago )....but I remember that it all started when a friend of mine from SEA region experiencing massive lag while playing gw2 but I have no problem at all despite being in the same region. A week after that I too suffer from it. And slowly but surely everyone else started to experience lag.Basically, I experienced the same problem that everyone else posted here.

Therys.4368 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Thought it was just me. The lag started last month and the game basically became unplayable with the ping spiking to 3000. I couldn't complete the last story instance without having a friend carry me through it. I started a ticket and support made me jump through the usual hoops (the checklist) for 2 weeks and found nothing wrong on my end. Ultimately, they suggested I change servers but a) I like my current server and b) What if that doesn't fix it? I refused the offer and they just closed my ticket without further response or action. Now I can barely even log in. Don't expect tickets to help. They can't do anything for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobsort.4097 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Same here, right after this last update which I got this morning, I keep lagging and then the famous "check your router and firewall" message! and finally I have to close the game and login again to be able to play for another few minutes. From SEA region too, and I'm sure I'll be asked again to share pathping result and even blame the issue to my router, wireless connection (I'm on fiber to gig lan) and etc. BTW, it has nothing to do with doing big events or something, people in my map were less than fingers of both handsI bet you never ride skyscale under water before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tourist McGee.2931 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Haven't played this game since shortly after launch. Came back yesterday and this lag and disconnect is really starting to make me regret that choice... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phoenixxx.8230 Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Also having the lag issue (SEA). I've troubleshot whatever I could with my own home PC, my ISP but to no avail.The game is nigh unplayable, there are some pockets of good connection here and there that I managed to put some gameplay in, but otherwise it's just a constant lag spikefest.

Null Hypothesis.5374 Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Yeah, I hardly ever get lag, but for the past 24 hours every time I go near a group of more than 15 my ping goes up to over 4000 and I have 15-20 seconds skill lag. WvW virtually unplayable at the moment, but only for certain people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 The Tech Devs rarely post in this forum.For an individualized response, you can contact the Tech CS Team via the 'Support' link above/below.Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenixxx.8230 Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Yeah I have a ticket with them and none of the solutions help. They have resolved to pointing it back at my ISP, which I have been in contact with BEFORE I contacted Anet as I wanted to be sure it wasn't something on my end in the first place.I've started paying for Mudfish because at this point it's gotten so bad that I couldn't even load in a map.If they rarely post at this forum - why have a tech support forum in the first place?

Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Because the Devs can learn about issues without having to stop work to respond.Because players can assist other players with many issues.If a VPN is helping, it is likely taking a different path to the servers, and using a different Tier 1 backbone, which is quite often the source of these kinds of issues.

phoenixxx.8230 Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 Yes, thanks for your helpful reply.Now for some actual tips of what worked (for me at least, YMMV) to the others suffering from this problem, I tried the free version of hide.me, which worked for a couple of days until that too stopped working. I am now on mudfish (3 days now) and it has been working so far, unfortunately it is a paid option.That is of course assuming there is something wrong with your routing to the servers (my internet is working fine in all other areas and online games except GW2).

Cyphin.3024 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 The game recently hasn't lagged too much for me, but over the past week it's been terrible, and today has been unplayable. I don't know what is wrong with GW2 servers but they need to sort it out. I've done speed tests and played other games without ANY problems. So GW2 has issues. If they don't sort it out I'm going stop playing and look for another MMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
