You are a Mesmer: your skills are dedicated to overcoming the enemy through unusual means, mostly by disabling them.
You are a a valuable asset to any team and a dread to enemy monks and other casters.
Studies show that 92% of teens listen to rap. If you are part of the 8% that listens to real music the add this to your signature.

Yeah totaly I hope they take pity on those of us routed through that server and re-instate the extra faction again, I lost out on the chance to gain enough for the next tier because it was just impossible to do anything :(

Part of the territory I think. Any online game that is popular is going to have lag every once in a while just because of sheer numbers. Your going to get peaks & valleys that are impossible to anticipate. Be thankful the game isn't virus infested or that 1/2 the people playing have not broken the code. (That has happened in other games & is DEFINITELY not fun).

But if you have read it, they are having technical problems, so its not because of numbers, its because of the server/router(s) having a problem, theres nothing to blame on numbers cause even today the faction thing is over, but the lag still lasts.

Patience is a virtue..
And do you really think anet owns all server across the world who have GW on them?
Think you need to do a bit more research before you go accusing people or companies...

Well Trib.. I would classify them as ''A-Nets servers''. I know they dont own them but its still kind of A-nets servers and you can still call em crappy :) They are fine usually.. but if you compare it to WoW's servers... Then again WoW's servers are crappy considering you pay 12 euro's a month for em. :P
I actually would think crappy is a bit to much of a good thing... they can be crappy. Lets call em: Anet's-can-be-sometimes-quite-crappy-borrowed servers.

Sorry Xellois55, you are correct. I was responding more in general terms & should have clarified myself.

It's not like they can map travel to any place around the world..
They rent those servers, and in ICT world, anything can go wrong.. Does that mean they are all crappy servers?
With a little bit of respect and patience you can get a whole lot further...

Prolly the lag was cuz many pvp games (cuz the week-end bonus) and proly was many 12 vs 12 (or 8vs8 ?) games. I still dont understand how a server can hold hundred of like 10 vs 10 players. Battle-net games are 4vs4 and there is big lag all the time. But 12 vs 12? lol
But why they speak about some in germany, isnt the server in usa? and isnt their server so they can control it?

No, wrong, wrong, and wrong again:
Europeans have their own server on the European continent, Americans on the American continent. Not only does it work slightly faster, its also easier and a bit more error-proof, like if the American one goes down, people can still play on the European one.
Also, all GW's Players in Europe dont connect directly to the European server, its usually routed to someplace else before send to the server, and then send back.
The case in this problem is that the router that sends your data to the GW's Server (or another router) is having problems causing the data to be send slower or not at all, and this in turn causes the phenomenon we call ''LAG''
I could be slightly wrong and don't mind if corrected, i dont have a ICT Course nor interested in one, but thats just what i can summon up a bit.
This is some information about their actual servers:
Guild Wars Tech Report about Servers
And, dont forget, the event you speak off is already over? And people are still having lag, so its not related to that at all.

If i'm not mistaken, 700 people can play on 1 server..
people from europe best play on eurpe servers to have less ip tracings to do --> less lag
Anet has (read rents) servers all over the world ;-)

| QUOTE | We wanted to let players know that we are aware that some of them have experienced latency (lag) over the last few days when playing Guild Wars. These issues appear to be nearly exclusively related to playing on or connecting through the European servers for Guild Wars. What we have learned is that there is an issue affecting many services that route through the Internet hub in Frankfurt, Germany. Some programs are not affected, but unfortunately, for some players, latency has become a factor within Guild Wars.
Our network teams report that resolving the issue is, with regrets, outside our direct control. However, the team members are tracking the matter and doing what they can to assure that it is prioritized and resolved. The network teams suggest that running a network diagnostic and submitting it with a Support ticket would help very much, as it allows them to learn and relay precisely where the bottlenecks are. You can learn about obtaining a DxDiag here. Simply attach that file to a Support ticket--please be sure to include your physical location and the server on which you are playing--and you will have helped greatly in working through this matter.
We apologize for this inconvenience and will do all that we can to assure that this problem will be resolved as quickly as possible.
The Network Team has just sent word that the issue is broader than once believed, and they're focusing on a previously-scheduled maintenance in the system that manages the hand-off between the core Internet switch and ArenaNet's infrastructure that connects Guild Wars hardware. This maintenance had already been scheduled for tomorrow night, but it's now hoped that beyond the original objectives of the maintenance, it will also assist in clearing up the current latency problem. I will post as/when we have more information. |

And that reinstall off GW + the hours of Patch downloads =]
I'm not experiencing hardly any lag anymore (hehe s*ckers), although I did get my share this past weak. And what's that about weak servers from A-Net? We should be happy we're on it for one time 49.99 dollars/euros/... ? Which can't be said from alot of other MMO's?! Quality < Quantity (and then theirs the "How much are you willing to pay?" =])

This lag killed my Mesmer goign for survivor, Ill stop playing a while and come back when ill be less pissed and when the lag will go (which i doubt will). And if the issue isnt fixed before the end of August, it will double with the coming of GW:EN.
peace and lag out
