Guild Wars 2

Any chance we can get this fixed once and for all ?

1: Better servers?
2: More bandwidth?

1kbps been offline for 59 minutes and you think this is appropriate?

Heaven BLOODY help us on HOT

Yeah, it not like lots and lots of people trying to access the same thing at the same time, oh wait, they are.

Finished teq, left the client open and downloading, left the house

Really? you don’t say wow I didn’t realise this, Im Truely sorry (FYI Sarcasam)

Servers should not be this overloaded/poor that people get 1kbps

The last patch took 4 hours to download and 2 hours to let me back on now for a 100mb file and quick patch check no way that should have happened, and even the forums took over 20 minutes to get working again

This is happening to everyone right now.

ha, i have 3kb, so i beat your 1. It going to happen, more so during such a big patch. What ever being added seem more then what the patch note says and this could be part of HoT too, and maybe even the holloween update that I just read about. It going to take time, heck, I sorta wish i do it tonight, i bet after work it be super quick, lol. Thoguh since I am here now, I will let it contiune to run, and just chill and wait.

Yeah, it’s not like lots and lots of money are invested in the game to give decent access to players. Oh wait, there are. So weird we can’t get access to the game then.

Seriously, stop white knighting Anet everytime, it’s getting just as old.

Yep—this is simply a result of Anet not want to use their$$ to provide and plan for days when they know they are going to get overwhelmed.

I usually don’t have problems with updates. There is something wrong with this one. Even the forums are slow and unreliable.
This is not typical, and I’m sure that they know about it, and are working on it.(Still, a response from an Anet employee to that effect would be nice.)

1KB <—> OKB <—>1KB

Crawl Crawl Crawl Crawl

Get ready for HoT Release Crash Day^^

It not white knighting to not get upset over ever little thing. It just a game, chillax. I am old enough to know this happen, almost every game on big patches suffer this, and I am sure there not much to do but ride it out. No matter the size of the servers, there are limits, and we have to live with that, no amount of money going to change that. If you know a better way suggest it, but blindly blaming does not help, also getting mad at people who have a different opinion not to healthy too.

This has happened quite a lot on patch day.

re: this is simply a result of Anet not want to use their$$ to provide and plan for days when they know they are going to get overwhelmed. – No, this is atypical. Patches usually go faster and smoother than this. We usually don’t have so many posts re: issues with patches or slow patch download times. The forums usually aren’t impacted on patch day. Something has gone wrong.

This is the first time I’ve seen, for me, the patch coming down in fits and starts. I’m at 60% and it’s been 1 1/2 hours.

Sure it also includes changes for BWE3 and it’s been “playable” for a while now but I’ve never tried playing it in an incomplete state. Well first time for everything.

Just remember, if we have a hard time accessing the forums, then so do they, and if this is a bad result, they may post on other sits like redit first to get the info flowing, but they always try the official sources first.

Oh yes.. this does happen, pretty much every patch especially of late.
Guessing the hamsters heard Ice nerf was incoming so decided to take the day off.
Just wait till the OP burning gets them on their return though – payback.. it’s a kitten

Anyhows we should all know by now that patch days are like raid pugging – gotta always expect the unexpected!

Oh wait that isn’t right cos the unexpected has become so expected that no one expects the unexpected to be unexpected anymore

One patch to update the game, one patch to fix it, another patch fix that patch then in the darkness… really kitten it all up!

WHAT’S WRONG ?
Something terrible has happened, it’s as if a million voices all cried out at once…
