Guild Wars 2

Big “thank you” for ensuring a fast patch.

I was concerned that the launch would turn into a fiasco because of the low dl-speed & connection fails from past patches, but everything went smooth & fast so far

Very fast
Expected 1kb/s

I had 8kb/sec for a while but picked up as others finish I guess.

I’m absolutely impressed with the download speed so far.
I expected 2kb/s and a painfully slow download, but I get up to 3mb/s.
Very good job on this.

wow :P u succeful passed the speed light :P

Last 8% is taking ages but otherwise the speed has been good.

mine is at a nice 2kb/s ;_; oh well i’ll be playing at “playable” xd

edit: okay i just went to a solid 0kb/s this might take a while

do u think if i play “playable” will i regret this? will it get bugged? :P

“playable” means all basic zones, class mechanics and immediately visible graphics are finished; everything else is higher level stuff

usually if i play at playable it doesn’t make stuff bug out but locations etc haven’t been loaded in your computer so when going to a map or opening a tab it will say “please wait untill we have downloaded this” then it will force download that particular asset and after a few mins you’re ready to go again

Mine is crawling between 2 and 100 kb/s. I’ve still got 5cm of progress bar to go before it’s playable. It’s going to be a long day XD

Im Cheering if I get up to 7 Kb\s at the moment….oh up to 700

Mine is slow too. Is this because the halloween patch is dropping at the same time??

They should have had the halloween patch drop 2 days ago in anticipation.

Woke up at 3am to start the download process, saw 100k+ files remaining and went back to sleep. Woke up at 6am with 86k files remaining and download speeds in the single digits.

Still crawling along at 0-30kb/sec… Very rarely it bumps to 180 for a second and drops back to double digits and slowly drops to 0.

Gonna be a long day.
