DC in the new dungeon
same here. check out my post in dungeons (i think its more appropriate there). They should really make a way to enter back to the instance =/
EDIT: I managed to get back to the same map my friends were on, but it started anew for me. meaning you can’t go back really =( totally blows =/
Happened to me too, but I froze which isn’t my fault.
sigh, i wasted my time too
Same thing happened to me
Same.
15 chars limit.
Same thing happened to our group. How do you make a dungeon where if someone dc’s you are just screwed? =/
Got kicked halfway through the boss. Not cool at all.
Just happened to the group I was in as well. One member DCed.
Im sure this is something they will fix soon
Yeah seems the ppl at Anet havent gotten the dungeons 101 things sorted…. dced on last boss on the statue and now i cant rejoin grp and i missed out on loot.
Yeah after getting booted from the LA event right as it was almost over, I log back in and it drosp me on a diferent overflow. So I was like what the hell, lets try the dungeon then. At the boss the game decided all skill activations for me should be 30 seconds because I’m super leet! After getting 4 skills off in 2 minutes it D/C me again. I log back in, can’t get with group and get to watch them post their loot in party chat. Arggh, anet 2, me 0 so far.
On a side note, when the Lags arch thing was going on I got lots of drops for first 15 enemies killed, and since then I did not receive a single drop from new foes, including the dungeon. Is this expected or something.

Same thing happened to me, DC in dungeon, can’t join my party. very sad considerin we were fighting the last boss of our fractal at that time.
Really? Noone at AN realized this might be a problem?
…
Same happened here. I dc-d out and I was unable to join up with the group.
Same story, only that it’s pretty frequent game crashes for me (probably because of kitten Windows Vista).
It’s annoying to have your game crash at the legendary charr shaman boss, but I realize that that’s nothing ArenaNet can fix. However, it is even more annoying not to be able to reconnect to that dungeon after I completed most of it!
Yupp cant reconnect to the dungeons after dc…FIX PLEASE
Same here… missed out on loot also. Epic fail! Won’t run this again ‘til it’s fixed… waste of time.
/waitsforafixafter24hours =/
Got stuck here on my first run, Jets blew me into that little hole there. I could not jump out of it. There were no way points for me to port to. I tried everything but could not get out. Luckily i did not have the hammer on me at the time or it would have been stuck there making the level impossible.
I then logged out and logged back in but could not join my group.
Just a bug that needs fixing.
(this is the map with the giant guy you have to free)
1st off Anet Amazing dungeon
but when inside the dungeon if a member of the party DC they can’t get back in this function punishes both the person who DC and the party as a whole
plz change this it’s highly annoying when this happens cuz the whole dungeon run is ruined
I dont understand why it was set like that in the 1st place
(edited by Psycho.2316)
+1 I can see locking the group in place and not letting others join the group or swap places but 2 ppl DC’ed in the group and I was one of them and could not rejoin party.
Also, from what I’ve heard, re-connecting to your group’s instance actually works in other dungeons. It probably only doesn’t work here because the mini-dungeon you enter is chosen at random. I suppose an NPC that ports you to the rest of your party might work.
The game is still kinda new so some problems are expected, but to not allow groups to add new people if someone leaves or let people that disconnect rejoin their groups is unacceptable. Sorry Anet I just expect more from you after playing guildwars since the original release 7 years ago. Please fix this.
I wont be doing this dungeon again until its fixed. I already missed out on a lot so I’m not going to waste my time.
It’s like they completely neglect to test out issues with Dungeons. GJ Anet!
This is a total game breaking mechanic! It stops the progression! Please fix this ASAP. This is a big problem when people get d/c can’t rejoin group and if they land on same map, everyone get KICKED out.
Yeah, this happened to me as well. It really really is no fun.
I crashed, can’t join the same instance anyway after that, I knew i was screwed and so was the group. I tried to enter anyway – …everyone got pulled out to LA.
It was the last fractal of the tier as well.
Horrible, horrible design/bug whatever. Fix this ASAP.
This problem is due to the new fix that prevent member in party to kick out people and invite guildies.
I actually think it’s working as intended, which is also not good.
I’m sure they think that people could just hop on near the end of a level to unlock that level (which I’m sure would happen) and this was designed to prevent it.
However, I think the option for a DCer to come back in should remain. A nice compromise would be if ONLY THAT CHARACTER to enter into the dungeon if THAT CHARACTER disconnects. It would prevent people from kicking members to invite guildies/friends to finish up a fractal level and it would allow people who DC accidentally to get back in.
“A release is 7 days or less away or has just happened within the last 7 days…
These are the only two states you’ll find the world of Tyria.”
They NEED to implement something to protect people who get disconnected from being locked out. If they’re still in group and never left they should be able to rejoin.
This has happened to me twice now.. BOTH times I was on the third map and DC’d, thats a LOT of time wasted… If this keeps up, I won’t make it to scale level 3 for a while
Even GW1 you can rejoin your group, the system recognizes a DCed player and give the option to rejoin. AN OLDER technology is better than what we have NOW.
Now I lost everything i done in the dungeon, almost to the end and see people saying thats the way it will be.
I don´t want to whine, but I spend 60 bucks to buy this game, and for me it´s a good money. If I can´t play content just because I CAN´T have other service provider in my region it will be a big kick in my….
This problem killed my groups progression. We cleared at least 12 fractals but each time before we got to three some one might DC or get a bug and we’d have to reset our count.
Really kills the fun when you are always just at the tip of the hill and always fall back down just as you get to the crest.
too annoying-frustrating and not to metion dissapearing hammers with a 3 man group on the last part of the colossus map. my fun ended there, not gonna bother anymore until joiner gets fixed.
Please fix this issue Anet. The dungeon is brilliant and this is the only issue that is causing a lot of players to rage about it.
I felt bad when I had a thunder storm surge and got disconnected and my party lost a person because of that. I wasn’t able to rejoin them and it made me feel pretty guilty!
Please fix this ASAP. Thanks!

I have yet to be able to complete a single run in multiple attempts of the fractal dungeon due people dc-ing midway. I’m tempted to think sucess in the new dungeon is based purely on RNG that people don’t DC.
Our whole party just got DCed at the same time mid-run. Working as intended? :unsure:

That happens if the person who goes in first gets DCed. I think.
The same thing happened to me, twice now. This is just really poor design. You can go back into all the other dungeons if a DC happens, but not this one. This needs to be changed quickly.
Yes, my husband and I got DC’d from the dungeon. Meant we couldn’t rejoin our group. Sucked. We were on our second fractal.
Been DC’d twice during boss fight first time 2nd time almost to boss on 3rd round fractal… FIX this BS
I get why they did it.
They should have never done it, I dc’ed at the 3rd round …
Fix it fast…
yep… two teammates got dc’d and couldn’t get back in so we had to go through it wiht just 3. we’re not going back in there until it’s fixed. real shame though because it was so much fun.
Okay, I understand that they didn’t want people walking out of the instance to repair before the third fractal of a set. It’s part of the mechanic that you have to make it through each set of three before you can regroup. However, the game locked up on me while we were doing the fractal where you are all charr trying to smash through old ascalon post-searing (at least, that’s as far as I got, the “break down the gate” objective). We had a total wipe and I clicked restart from checkpoint, the game went to a load screen and became totally non-responsive. I waited for a while, then force-closed the game. When I load back in I’m booted to lion’s arch and left listening to the party mates on vent, and I’ll have to make them start all the way over because now I haven’t made it past the three set and I can’t get in. Because of some bug that caused my client to lockup. Why don’t I just load back straight into the dungeon when I disconnect? That would solve the problem of people popping out to repair.
Same. That means everything in this week-end failed.
Buggy event.
Even with boring and tanky bosses as usual.
Buggy NPC.
Buggy dungeon.
Actually the sPvP new map is good that’s one thing although the balance changes are really inappropriate.
100% World completion.
Don’t know if it was already brought to attention, but i don’t even get to enjoy the fractals.
I hope in, get a loading screen, and it stays there. If i don’t close the game, it could keep looking to that loading screen for 10 minutes.
Also, as of late, i’ve not been able to get into lions arch and stay online for 2 minutes. Any area with a lot of population causes the game to crash.
It was never such a problem before, and i didn’t change my hardware. so why did this problem suddenly have such a high increase?
All in all, i’d already be happy if i was able to get past the loading screen and just get into the fractal. At least then i have a chance at completing the monthly.
Just had the same problem in my team. I really don’t get it why is not possible to rejoin after a dc. Just frustrating to be near the end of fractal 3 when 2 people disconnect.
I really like the dungeon but that needs to be fixed.
Just lock the group at the beginning, so that no one else can join.
My game crashes enough that i can’t play the new dungeon
My usual group has gotten so far ahead of me that i dont feel that i’ll be able to catch up
I really wanted to like this dungeon, but the obnoxious and frequent instakills, lack of fixes, and the elitism that the fractal levels are spawning is really killing anything good i had to say about it
Was solo’ing the “Underground” one (The one with the dredge) almost at the top….(Very easy to take on 3 veterans that seems to respawn alot quicker than expected at the same time)
Client “Loses” connection to the client….
I checked my internet, and all was fine….
was really annoyed T_T
logged back in-game and didn’t do anything until event started….gonna wait until everything die down and servers have stable connections before trying again
