Game unplayable during peak SEA time GMT+8 9pm onwards for 2-3 hours.


Recommended Posts

For context i'm from Singapore. I mainly play WvW and the active hours is the time stated.
Symptoms observed:
1. can't whisper people
2. Spammed with "The game client is unable to gain access to the log-in server at this time"
3. WvW scoreboard is 0 and fully white out pie chart
4. WvW objective borders don't load
5. WvW objective icons don't load (keep, tower, camps)
6. guild tab doesn't load
I currently use exitlag which without i would be hitting 4k ping and in fights skills don't fire or people start teleporting or i would be standing in a safe space and i would be taking damage.

I am not sure what happened, but SEA here in the PH and OCX are getting latency in that they cannot even press keys... 3000 plus lag.   Something has changed with AWS IMHO.

Apparently there are sea internet cables broken right now and expected repair is 12 june

The last time I posted this to reddit (~a year ago), people were stating this "broken cable issue". How often do they get broken and wtf?

Have you already tried to check where on the way the problems happen (with tools like pingplotter), to see, if it's really a problem on the end of anet / AWS?

According to some numbers I found, it happens much more often than I thought, about every other day a cable breaks.

Hey, do you have a source regarding the repair of the broken cable ? It is related to the red sea attack ?

 

Thanks

If anybody's using mudfish and lacks a good node for the unfortunate SEA situation that we are in right now Try US West (Oregon - Amazon EC2. If you're in wvw though, don't go for the cheapest monthly plan as a threeway or really big boonblob can easily eat the provided bandwidth.

lag, ping spikes and disconnection every few minutes today... Singapore player... tried exit lag (does not work for me)

A good game plagued by connection issues... Anet you need to look into this seriously... other games and apps does not have this issue...

lmao this ping is straight up unplayable and it isn't even 3 way. Just 2 blobs going at it and all skills start blinking without actually going off, characters all go rubberbanding. until you die because god knows where your character actually is. You could be running into the enemy zerg without even knowing it. Best server ever 😁

Maybe your ISP is bad and relying on poor cables and bad routing to deliver service to you. Forking out money monthly for mudfish/exitlag is bandaid at best and giving these ISPs/Anet a pass to continue things as it is.

Nah, this has been plaguing SEA/OCX players ever since they moved to AWS. I've played with a VPN for several years. However, recent events are so bad that even VPN doesn't work properly sometimes. No, is not an ISP issue, literally everything else is smooth, even in other games. Is a GW2 issue.
