Battlegrounds and the current state of WoW

[ST]

Is WoW working for anyone? On another note: I usually never go over about 400 latency in WoW. In the battlegrounds I was lagging around 9000ms. WTF is that? It wasn't CPU lag either. My comp was fine and WoW was the only PROCESS running. Anyone else experiencing the same things?

Mine works completely fine. In the Battle Grounds, just like in the normal world, my latency is around 36-56ms. =/

On your firewall or router, open/forward these ports(I read the readme on WoW):
3724
8086-8087
9081-9100

Worked for me, made my game go so much faster.

everytime i join a BG, i drop imediately.

usually i can get right back on, but often ill get a crit. error right after i get back.

then i have to start WoW up again, log in, get on my char, and then i can play BG! huzzah!

im usually at 80 ms .
