Guild Wars 2

My internet is very bad because I live in a rural area. When it works, it works well enough to play GW2, but the main problem is that it occasionally goes out for about 30-60 seconds. If this doesn’t irritate me by itself, it seems that every time I do a long story quest, right when I’m at the end of the 45 minutes it took me to get that far, I always disconnect and lose all progress. It has literally happened to me 5 times in the last 3 story missions. For one, why do you lose all progress when you leave the instance? And secondly, why do you leave the instance at all when you D/C? That doesn’t just apply to story missions either, but also dungeons. I’ve never seen an MMO that teleports you out of an instanced zone when you get D/C’d. It just really bugs me that I keep having to repeat all of these quests from the beginning. Please ArenaNet, allow us to remain in instances after we sign back in after D/C’ing, and if that isn’t possible, then at least save our progress after we D/C from story missions?

I agree 100%. I just did a quest section 3 times and I always got disconnected at the final bossfight. Incredibly annoying. Please do something about that arenanet! Either just let us stay in the instances for a little while or let the game remember our progress within an instance. Maybe, if you reenter an instance after a disco, you could let the player choose if he wants to play the storyline from the beginning or just resume from where he got to the last time.

I’ve been having this problem too.

GW1 had a system where it would save your progress for a couple of minutes after a disconnect, and if you reconnected within a certain interval, it would return you to where you were. The interval wasn’t very long so it would have been difficult to abuse for personal gain, but it would cover something like this easily.

It would be nice if GW2 could do the same thing, so you’re not losing an hour’s worth of progress when your internet drops for a couple of seconds. GW1 showed it was possible, and it would be good to have that feature back.

PLEASE!!!!

It doesn’t have to be a long interval, but even 60 seconds would be a huge plus.

Yeah! Has this issue been addressed cause its a massive pain in the butt! Just happened to me! nerd rage
