Last 2 days I've had lag so bad its unplayable.

It doesn't seem to be a problem my end because other games run fine online like CS:S etc. Anyone else getting bad lag of Anet at the moment?

I'm UK based but lag no matter what server I go to - ISP is BT

Just yesterday. Been in the orange ping area, still playable, but sometimes was actually jumping around places. Had no other programs running.

Haven't seen anything myself. I'm in the USA, and have been on the American, Korean, Chinese, and European districts.

today was pretty bad, had a couple of 40k lag spikes (was fun to watch my character walk around with half of my skills trying to activate ).

not sure whats up, but I know my survivor is staying on vacation for a while.

Been getting random spikes all day, and its not just me PvP matches lock up and chat is filled with cires of "laaag" and so on, so I'm guessing something is up with the servers.

A couple of days after I say I don't have any lag then it happens. Last night while playing I will b in the middle of a fight and then everyone stops and looks around. Then about 5 seconds later "POW", the thing you was fighting is dead and you need healing. Very strange.

Yeah been getting sporadic lag on US servers, always at the worst possible time. Also been disconnected & unable to reconnect a few times

Probably the servers groaning for (what I hope to be) the upcoming skill patch.

The past few times this happened the game was pretty much unplayable for a week or so.

I just wish ANet would release the damn thing already.

For the last few days I've been getting quite sporadic lag. It's always hopping around. I heard that some of it is caused by the merging of servers to prevent syncing stuff. If that's the case Anet failed. I still see plenty of sync'ers.
