Guild Wars 2

How many times have you had the message “you have lost connection” popped up which takes you LITERALLY 5-10 seconds to reconnect you to the game, only to find yourself in a different IP away from your organized run?

I have it all the time and the fact that you left means a spot opened, I just cannot understand why there is no system that saves your spot for at least 1 minute after you left so you can get back in in case you do lose connection

Any opinions on this?

Is this related to inactivity? I only seem to have actual connectivity issues rarely – perhaps 3-4 times over the course of me playing GW2.

The only times that I get “you have lost connection” is when I’m standing around, not moving and not casting skills. Typing doesn’t count as activity.

IF you are doing these things – or rather doing nothing – then I think it’s completely justifiable that you lose your spot, as the game is realizing you are not contributing to the map.

If, however, you are moving and having disconnect issues that are happening frequently enough for this to be an ongoing issue for you, you should send a ticket into anet and start investigating packet loss.
