I was getting the same crash message and tried a few things and now I've been in and around a few maps for 5 min or so and the only thing I changed this time was turn Antialiasing from FXAA to none. I can't say that's why it stopped crashing within a few seconds but that's all I changed.

100% This should have been /endthread.

I have the same exact issue. I even tried rolling back a couple updates for windows(10)and still I get the rubber banding in WvW fights. I play other games and I'm having no internet issues or packet loss going on when playing that(I did testing with a few games a handful of times now to check). I also don't have high usage or temps for cpu(Ryzen 5800x 3d)or gpu(3080ti). I also checked SSD temps and they're fine(Samsung 980 pro w/heatsink). I also have 32GB of memory(checked for errors a few times the last week)so it's not that. I also hear others mentioning the same issue. Not a ton, but it's a thing it seems. My guess is there's something OP and I have for a setting or whatever that's just not jiving with the latest update to the game. It's happened before and prob will happen again. Edited to add I also used my VPN to see if anything changed moving it around different places and still the same issue.

And you all don't know true annoyance from cheaters till you played Rust and lost days of played time worth of loot in seconds. Be thankful at least in this game we don't lose anything but maybe a long walk from spawn for the most part.

I used to have what seems like a similar crashes. And it stemmed from virtual memory. The only way I fixed it was set virtual memory manually on my main drive and turn off on all others(On most windows versions it's in System/Advanced System Properties/Performance Options/ and the Advanced tab). I manually set the initial size of VM to the "recommended" shown in the window and the maximum size to exactly 1.5 times the Initial size. It worked like a charm and I've helped a few others the last couple years with that. I had literally tried everything for days and tried every fix anyone had tried for crashes since the games inception. Just make sure you only have VM on on that one drive if you have multiple drives. Obviously before you give this fix a try take a snapshot or write down exactly what you originally had for VM settings to begin with just in case it causes issues for some reason. GL. Hope it works for at least some of you.

OP's idea w/EOTM sounds alright to me. There's few good ideas said here... Some of my most fun times was trolling w/friends in EOTM trying to knock or fear as many people off the map as possible and finding the best spots to do it. As much as I can admit DBL has gotten much better than it was in it's inception, but done right(reworked just a bit)I think EOTM could be a fun map for normal WvW play. Or put in as a rotation. But I'd still take no downstate permanently over any new map. Just saying...

Maybe people aren't using other accounts escape a bad matchup or whatever. Though who cares at this point in a 10yr old game where there are no incentives to push to win anyhow.. You can't expect everyone to have the same goals at this point. Just be happy people are still playing it. I am. I have a lot of accounts placed on other servers than my "main" account. I have friends on pretty much every other WvW server NA/EU and like to go randomly play with them here and there. Sometimes for days I'll play with a friend(s)if things are more fun than what is going on in my matchup on my "main". So what? I kind of think if not for those account to play with others on other servers I'd have put down the game by now. It just seems kind of serious wanting ppl to get in some sort of trouble for it. Or judgmental even. Or dare I say like a Karen? I kid. I kid. But really, stop caring what others are doing with their time in game. You'll have so much more fun gaming that way.

Is this a troll? Or you new to the game?

Yeah, there are a few cheaters kicking around still. Ones I've reported months ago. Teleporters usually. But I'm used to it, sadly. But a lot of things ppl are claiming in this thread that are cheats just don't(thankfully)exist in GW2. Like "one shot cheats". I've never seen that. Or cheats that can make you not use any initiative as a thief?...I've never seen or heard of those. The hacks today that you'll see are usually the typical ones that have always been around like noclip, speed, tele to a certain spot, tele to coords, zoom, esp and pvp and wvw combat bots(these are the newest but still been around for a while). The other stuff I suspect it's just that they were better than you right then. Simple as. Not meaning to sound mean or anything here btw. It's just that GW2 isn't big enough for any competent scripters to make the cheats like mentioned. Plus, there would be vids of them out there on YT and there just aren't. Or go see if you can see if they exist.

Your best bet is to have something like Shadowplay or OBS instant replay going when playing and if you catch an obvious cheater hit save then send the most obvious video clip or clips of proof and their info to exploits@arena.net. That being said, Letoll isn't wrong. I suspect "all is vain".

My ping actually got quite a bit better almost instantly. Went from 120 average to 70 or lower. The WvW lag kittenshow is still a thing, but the bad hop(s) that was bottlenecking my connection to the server is gone. I'd post pic of old traceroute and one now if I had one from before. Just so you don't think I'm trolling ^_^ I hope they can fix the issue for the ppl negatively affected. But not to my detriment though by going back to the old servers.

+1 to this for sure. This is one of the better suggestions I've heard on these gw2 forums in a bit. The reasons why have been stated in the thread already...
