Guild Wars 2

So i was logged into southsun, one minute before the karka queen spawns and my client disconnects. On ‘my’ megaserver, all the events are done so she will spawn instantly. However, when i log back in i’m dumped onto a nameless overflow with 0 events done and like 1 person who replies to me on map chat. Consequently i miss the event because ‘my’ megaserver is capped and i can’t get back in, and the event is doomed to fail on the server i logged to because of insufficient people.

The only reason i was in southsun was for the Karka queen GM trait unlock, and now i have to wait another 5 or so hours for another chance.

Is there any chance that a megaserver can remember the players logged into it so that if the client disconnects, they are returned to the same server upon login? This completely wasted my time and those who ended-up in the same situation.

Replies of ‘deal with it’ are unwelcome. Posted in the heat of the moment

how long do they wait for client disconnects? 1min, 5 min? either way it still would have been finished.

Try partying with someone, so if you disconnect you should still be able to get back onto that server through the “join option”.

Other than that, disconnects happen, its not a big deal. (and this is from someone who’s missed many events/lost places in dungeons/missed GM’s all because of disconnecting issues. They’re annoying and frustrating at times, but it happens. ~shrugs~)

Megaserver has been activated for towns and lv1-15 zones. So southsun is still the old classic setup of server maps.

Better check your information before posting something, Skynet has occupied almost the entire game by now…

Doesn’t help if the zone is full, you simply get an error message then. In the end its the same we already know from the old overflows, since Megaserver is nothing more than just a list of overflows.

I’ve been trying out the new champ schedule, and I can honestly say I’ve never been in so many overflows. Every new zone —> ‘you are in xxxxx overflow’. I thought the whole megaserver thing was supposed to fix that? It’s actually been worse than before.

The megaserver is a cross-server permanent overflow system so no surprises there.

The only difference from Megaserver to overflow is, that you don’t get the message anymore that you are on an overflow .. thats all. Else the whole thing is just a giant overflow.

All the talk about “Oh don’t worry your party and guildies will not be separeted”.

Such lies, on majority of the bosses i have done till now with my guilds in party, we enter in different megaservers. I don’t get this, if it wasn’t enough this absurd timings of boss spawns to if we fail it once, we can’t do it anymore… grrr such Beta, very launched 1.5years ago.
