Here’s my experience: get the message about the new content and that it will be announced under “Clockwork Chaos” on my screen when it is active. Log on. My character sees that “the minions are attacking Sparkfly Fen”. Pay silver to travel to Sparkfly Fen. Arrive into overflow to huge chaotic battles going on around me. Join one; in one minute kicked off the server into my desktop. Complete total game connection failure. No warning or explanation. Log back on. Back into overflow. Now the game says “Scarlet’s minion are attacking Sparkfly Fen” (again). It ALSO says “Scarlet’s minions are not attacking this world” This defies logic. Run around. Nothing is happening. Go back to Lion’s arch. Message changes to “Scarlet’s minions are attacking Bloodtide Coast”. Travel there. Back in overflow. Same totally incomprehensible message that minions ARE and ARE NOT attacking my area. Hang around killing defenseless creatures for a while. NOTHING HAPPENS. Minimize and come look here where completely unhelpful players suggest that I wait another 10 minutes. FOR WHAT??? This is absolutely awful content. Oh, yes. I’m teased with a daily completion of one of these events or I can’t get the reward at the end. NICE!
Thank you.

Hooray! After 20 minutes I got into my world’s Bloodtide instance. AND nothing’s happening! Still BOTH the messages that the minons ARE and ARE NOT attacking bloodtide coast. Breathtakingly awful event. This is a masterpiece of frustrating content. I have now spent over an hour to do absolutely nothing. And look at the huge list of achievements here! It looks like I could spend weeks waiting in queue for many, many events that I won’t be allowed to participate in. I am looking forward to the adventure.

I’m going to not even play GW2 until I see a patch that announces some fixes for this event. I simply don’t have ALL night to sit here waiting and hoping to do content that should be in my humble opinion something we should be able to do at our own pace. This is why Sky Pirates of Tyria and Four Winds of Bazaar were awesome. Sky Pirate had that awesome dungeon. Four Winds had lots of jumping puzzles and mini games. Both were fun and casually paced.

I 100% agree with you. I especially enjoyed the sky ship content (and I completely lucked out by doing all the crystal finding BEFORE they nerfed my Necro; she was able to try the really kittenes and survive the falls .. Nevermore). This is just literally a waste of time, lots of time I don’t have.
