Can't connect to the server / Slow website

[Vux 0]

All right, so randomly the game started to lag, when I right clicked something it would take up to 10 seconds to show the menu, then I ran into a spider and the game ended up disconnecting. I tried to relaunch but i kept getting the failed to verify, I tried going to the website, it wouldn't load.

 

I went on IRC and asked if anyone else was having the issue, some people were but a lot of people were still fine in game..

 

I've reset my router, disabled my firewall, turned off my antivirus and restarted my computer, I've done everything I can think of. I've managed to download the launcher file, as the website loaded after about 15 minutes, but I'm sitting on "Connecting to server..."

 

-- I'm alive, ignore that rant part.

 

edit: I'm from Canada and someone else from Canada said he had the same issue and used a VPN and it worked.

 

edit2: When I ping the server I get 2 responses, but then it times out.

Canada here as well same issue reseted the modem restarded pc game is slow can not get the game working either...we were sailing and we lagged then it came fine then we disconnected can't get back

[Dairuka 888]

Even when using a VPN, I'm occasionally getting, "Unable to launch the application" and prolonged "Connecting to the server"

 

I'm in Canada.

 

Now I disconnected, and I'm unable to connect at all.

Same issue with ANOTHER FELLOW CANADIAN!  

[Dravos 0]

Same sort of issue. I was mining, lag hit and disconnected. Haven't been able to log back in. Sometimes the application fails to launch, sometimes it launched and the host closes the connection and sometimes the established connected was aborted by the software in your host machine.

 

I'm in Japan.

 

I can log in using a VPN... Canada and Japan.. seems a strange grouping..

All us Canadians out there, I'm in Ontario and my internet is acting really slow an lagging too.

[charl13dontsurf 1]

[Roseborgne 13]

I was building walls with my friends, and I suddenly had a terrible lag spike.. I'm from the Philippines tho.. but I believe it's wurm and not my connection, since i can surf the Internet and load videos pretty fast.. Tried to ping the server and it just says "Request time out" for me..

[Shagsdeval 45]

my question is, are they willing to do a dam roll back

[Delone 215]

I'm Australian, and same issue here so add Aus to the mix.

[Malicarth 46]

[AlexLong 128]

Same here!

[Shagsdeval 45]

So the new server is crashing like the old server.... LOVELY

[Vux 0]

Yeah, just downloaded a VPN.. works fine now.

[antonslavick 136]

it seems wurm is not liking the most of us canadians

[AlexLong 128]

This new host clearly has some peering issues..... Can't really blame wurm for this one though, the host in question makes it sound like they have awesome peering on their network page.... Lol

I heard they are holding Wurm time hostage until we give up some Gold Medals.

[charl13dontsurf 1]

Yeah I am using a German VPN and works

[herblin 16]

Also from Canada.  unable to connect. fails over and over. Updated java, reset router, reset pc.    When I finally get the application to launch I get stuck in a loading screen

[Rubychez 18]

[Malicarth 46]
