Yet Another Ping Picture

I should hold a contest to see if anyone can beat me in "Lag Wars" :s

51K.... wow. If only that translated to gold... Then you would have no need to try to sell your poor toon in the Temple *rofl*

I'm not sure that ANYONE could beat that...that's just crazy..and I don't think I've ever been over about 1k at the most..and I definately couldn't play..How the heck do you do it?? lol

The whole AB was lagging during that, actually. I'm pretty sure I had >13k ping myself when that happened.

Jebus just takes it to a whole new level though. :p

my highest is just over 2k.

in another game i got over 10k tho

Hint-

Try going to options on the in game menu and then go to graphics turn the stuff that saids "high" or "medium"
to "low", and turn the reflections to "none"

it helps me a little in PVP just won't look as good.

hopefully it will take the edge off your lag.

There is also a program that rebuilds the Guildwars .dat file.

Or you could uninstall guildwars, then defrag your hard drive. Then go to Guildwars.com, download the client, then run the -image trick and completely rebuild the dat file. That'll really optimize the game for ya. Defrag your compy again just for funzies.

It'll be a multinight, leave the compy on at night type operation but if you've never defragged your hard drive or still have the same install of Guildwars that you did months/years ago, it may be worth it.

My graphics can't get any lower than they were. Also the only things I have on this computer are Firefox, Vent, CZ, and Guild Wars. Trust me. A defrag won't help at all.. In fact it would just waste my time. This was just one of those lag spikes that GW seems to get at times, and this was in AB at 3am so the connection itself wasn't any better than normal so when you add 1 and 1 together you some how end up with 51k

I'm not complaining about my lag, I'm merely bragging about the awesomeness of 51k. I use to play FPS games with a 56k connection, this is like bliss comparing to those days.

Well, I for one personally hold you responsible to that horrible score *grin*. WHAT is going on with Luxon lately??? We cannot win a scrimmage for the life of us...

I went ABing the other night and lost all 8 matches I was in. We got sppanked in every conceivable way. Of course, two of my party were leechers in one of the games. I found another loser hiding in a cave. I wished I could have lobbed a fire ball at him.

Honestly, why bother to go through all the trouble of hiding in a cave or joining a group if you are not going to play???
(I am starting to work myself into a lather now, so I had better stop....)

Jebus... I have done the impossible. I have a screenshot that makes your ping pale in comparison.

Note that this was not intentionally set up or doctored. This is running under my normal playing conditions and programs.



That's right. I was stuck lagging for over two minutes, without disconnecting.

The bar has been raised. :p

All I have to say is :'(
