if you put gar2.ascva.ip.att.net into google( witch seems to be the problem hop). all the results are about major lag dramas.

 

[Bomb Bloke]

1) And what shard might you be attempting to connect to?
2) What ping does the client display for that shard?

 

[walter_mitty]

trying to connect to atlantic. i usually ping at 130 being from the uk.
but for the past few days its been 218 plus.

 

[Sweeney]

Yeah I'm lagging horribly on my last 3 hops (Over 200 ms). It starts with 144.223.246.6, a sprintlink hub, and goes on to the ea hubs.

I can't even play.. first time I've ever frozen up for seconds at a time.

 

[HeathBar]

I'm pinging really high on Atlantic right now too. I am normally around 50's but I've been getting ~170ish all day today. When I do trace route my problem seems to be at the last 3 hops too.

[Shelleybean]

I have terrible lag on Legends and Atlantic. The game is not playable.

 

[Olahorand]

My result:
Could not connect to Ultima Online. Please try again in a few moments.
But also the patcher for UO Assist fails, so it seems to be a problem outside of EA.

 

[Chaosy]

I have horrible lag to any of the east coast shards. Baja seems fine but Chesapeake, Atlantic, and Great Lakes are all freeze-fests for me.

 

[sapphirediablo11]

10Max D/l 5Max upload and i'm still laggging like a &*^*&IGBIGO*LSR(&^&* i mean this sucks :O fix it please?

 

[Bullet]

I too am having bad lag for last few days, real bad tonight but i chalk it up to elections jamming the internet.

[rareitem]

So its not only me.

You can see pretty easily I have a problem on hop 11.

 

[soze]

So.....

what does this mean?

 

[Petra Fyde]

well, I'm no expert, but for me I think it means the server

Eth1-7.edge03.abn-iad.ea.com

which belongs to ea.com, needs a swift kick, or other appropriate remedial action.

 

[soze]

Gottcha

Well, i know i cant play right now (at least fight anything worth while)

HELLOOOOOOOOOOOO DEVVSSSSSSSS or EAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I THINK THERE'S A PROBLEM!!

 

[walter_mitty]

same again tonight unplayable for me.

can we get a word for any of the devs if they have read the posts on lag and if anything is being done to fix it ?

 

[walter_mitty]

bumping this thread again.
all was ok on the Atlantic server until about 5 pm GMT. then the lag kicked in.

heres my trace route.

I had no problems till today and it is only on LS. All of LS now.

No problem on Atlantic so far or Great Lakes.

[Zooithion]

[walter_mitty]

yup seems like its on a ea server.
Joanna did make a post saying it was been looked into,( a one line answer )
but no time frame has been given when to expect a fix.

you'd have thought with it affecting this many players that they would make some sort of official announcement about it.

i mean they can make posts showing off their Halloween costumes but cant make a post giving us updates about whats being done to fix the lag.

 

[Mystikal GIL]

Still no info???

 

[walter_mitty]

still Atlantic is lagging real bad, still unplayable. its been over a week now.
if the devs fixed it for LS shard then why not Atlantic.

 

[Splup]

Major lag on Europa also.

 

[Zooithion]

No, it's not fixed on LS at all.
Last night at about 10pm those routers cleared up only to turn back to the same problem today.

still Atlantic is lagging real bad, still unplayable. its been over a week now.
if the devs fixed it for LS shard then why not Atlantic.

 

[Cutter]

it gets better around 10:30 pm give or take

 

[Mystikal GIL]

Nothing improved on siege either.

 

[Harb]

Yep, bag lag, and a bad time for it with the current event! It's pretty much a killjoy.

 

[Flutter]

My max ping today was 1008. My minimum was 164.
Not fun much??

ping catskills.owo.com -t for an hour. Let me know if any of you get better results.

 

[Speed_Racer]

4 days of this. Some one needs to get a fix on this. I am lagging to nothing else.

[walter_mitty]

on uoherald they have asked everyone with lag problems to submit a trace route
to uobugs.com if everyone can do this then it'll give the devs much more of an idea of whats causing it.

 

[rareitem]

8th day lagging badly the worse of all is seeing how it doesnt affect everybody, so you just cant simply walk but other people can run with no problems......weird

 

[Snakeman]

As we all see in our different Trace Routes, most of the issue lies in ea-gw2. For me this ping hop has been as high as 215, never does my ping usually exceed 110/112 at any of the last 5 hops.

Sun 1am EST

Sun 9:46am

 

[Mystikal GIL]

Still if your last hop is ping 115, you should be okay no?

 

[Flutter]

Still if your last hop is ping 115, you should be okay no?

No 115 ping is horrible.
My normal ping to my shard is 30.

I deal with the 110/115, but stick one hop in there jumping 175 to 215 ping & you studder step all over.

Hrm I play siege from Denmark, I ping 110 normally. That is a fine ping even for pvp.

Your correct 110/120 is Ok to PvP in, but stick a 170 to 250 Ping in the middle & see what happens. Now you see it, now you don't on objects

I guess you're right.

Any news on the lagmonsters? Mine's still bad.

 

[Cutter]

130ish ping might not sound all that bad. Add in the packetloss tho, and believe me it is not fun especialyl when you were used to a ping of 17 w/ 0 loss.

I have barely logged in let alone tried to pvp in the last week or so because of this.
