Skill lag lately???

SoulSurfer

I've been playing since launch and just until recently, (few weeks) it seems the skill lag has been getting worse day by day.  Forget the culling issues..., if I can't even use my abilities in WvW, the game is broken and unplayable.  I hit a skill and it goes off 5-10 seconds later.  Very frustrating and annoying.  On the verge of ragequit.  Anyone else experiencing this bullshit?

Yes, I noticed. I'm sure they will fix it eventually, however since WvW patch is soon, WvW will be in the spotlight and many players will want to play WvW, so I think we can expect lag getting increased, at least for the first week after patch.

The lag has been horrendous in GW2 lately. And that's playing PvE! I don't WvWvW. During prime time the game would become almost unplayable due to network lag. So if I want to play it has be after 9.30-10pm otherwise the game lags like crazy. It is even worse if you go to specific zones like Diessa Plateau and Wayfairer Foothills. Yesteraday I was lagging in Diessa at like 1pm which is not even prime time. All other zonese were lag free. This has been the case since the patch in Feb.

I hope they fix it. I have my doubts about it though as a lot of people have been complaining in the Tech Support forums yet ArenaNet seems to dismiss it as an ISP related issue. At least for me, it's definitely not the ISP. I have tried playing like 10 different games at the time where I experience lag in GW2 and I have zero issues. It's really annoying cause the last 3-4 times I tried playing GW2, I logged out after like 5-10 min because it would like crazy at about 7-8pm.
