EU is down. Anet, pls reward everyone in this thread with 400 gems)

Things like this happen in every MMO ever. I am sure it is as irritating for the devs, as much as it is for us, if not more, because they are actually hard at work at the moment to fix the issue, oppose to us, just sitting and waiting. Not sure why you feel entitled to any kind of compensation or “reward”, as you put it, but you are not. I work 7 days per week with only 1 day off and you dont hear me asking compensations, even tho the issue happened precisely in my day off, do you?

Please stop trying to make yourself such a special snowflake. Just sit and patiently wait the issue to get fixed like the rest of us in the game where you dont pay monthly subscribsions. Thank you.

Thank you for your opinion. I dont give a flying heck how much do you work, and I dont care how do you have 8 (7+1) days in a week. Not sure why do you want to teach someone to “behave”, but imo that doesnt correlate with “successful hardworking man” image you trying to create.
Also I dont know why are you talking about subscription. Do you really think I should thank Anet for non-sub status of the product I already bought? Seriously?

And I may be a snowflake, I may wait patiently, I may cry and yell, that is not your business, okay?

Thank you for confirming everything I said in my previous post. I gave a simple example how grown up adults SHOULD behave in that kind of situation on public forums like those oppose to crying and demanding free candies like little entitled childs, but I guess I expected you would miss this point entirely.

I am not trying to educate you in anything. It was your parents job to do that, one they failed entirely it seems, but oh well…. be entitled and cry up to the heavens for your free candies if you want, but expect someone to point that at you on a PUBLIC forum when your behavious gets even more irritating then the current issue we all experience with the game now.

Also I gave you the example with the subscribtion, because in most MMO’s you have those downtimes caused by bugs WAY more often on top of downtimes for maintance (those are up to 4hrs usually), while people pay their 15$+ every month on top of their initial purchase. So just be thankful Guild wars 2 isnt like that, go back to your little corner and wait the devs to do their job, mkay?

Also dont bother answering. Done wasting my breath with the likes of you, “friend”.

Sam here…

For the last few hours. I thought .. well perhaps it is my net and it was late so I went to bed .. woke up… same error:

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/support/Connection-error-s-detected-retrying-115/first#post6643415

We’re aware of the issue and are looking into it.
I’ll update here as I get them.

Temp Workaround:
(This will not work for everyone)

As a temporary bypass add -assetsrv 64.25.41.2 to your Gw2 Shortcut in the Target Section (you will want to clear this out at a later date)

64.25.41.3, 64.25.41.4 may also work

ANET KNOWS and IS WORKING ON A SOLUTION!! YAY!

(Also what is Rain’s problem? We just saying it is still a problem. I have never had as much down time with any other game I have played as with GW2 but perhaps I am just lucky (I played 4 years of WoW as well). Wish the launcher would say when there is a known issue .. instead of having to search to see if it is just us or on Anet’s side…).

Hey guys, I posted a fix on my Facebook (thanks to Reddit)

http://bit.ly/GW2ConErrorFix (redirect to my Facebook page)

If you can’t connect follow those steps to logging in, I posted exactly what the shortcut target should look like.


Quote below:
If you are experiencing this issue, read below…

ArenaNet are aware of this issue and there is an unreliable workaroud.

Add -authsrv ###.###.##.# -assetsrv 64.25.41.2 (look below for numbers) to your shortcut so it looks like this:

Target: “U:\Guild Wars 2\Gw2-64.exe” -authsrv ###.###.##.# -assetsrv 64.25.41.2

  • -assetsrv is the same for both regions
  • -authsrv is the one you need to replace IP addresses with (read below)

~~ EU IP list: ~~
206.127.146.73
206.127.146.74
206.127.159.109

Wish the launcher would say when there is a known issue .. instead of having to search to see if it is just us or on Anet’s side…).

My problem (problem is far-fetched, more like something that annoyed me, while browsing the topic) is that with each such issue I see people coming and starting to demand they get compensation from Anet. Its redicilous and thats not how the real world functions. Letting Anet knows about the issue is fine and good, demanding compensations from them for it is childish and self entitled attitude that wont get you anything, but pity.

My words were very strictly focused to one single person tho… not sure why you even put yourself into it, but there you go.
Your suggestion about the launcher is pretty good tho. Might be really nice QoL addition, if the devs decide to implement it.

Also hopefully they fix the issue permanently soon. While the workaround fixes it for some, people are still unable to do much in the game sadly, because the server is pretty much empty right now.

Feels bad, I just bought the game and I can’t even install it. That’s a disappointment. I don’t have a game.exe but I made a shortcut of the install and added -assetsrv 64.25.41.2, flushed dns, changed dns etc. No luck, just keeps saying connection error retrying.

Sorry to hear that. Thats indeed unfortunate, but I suggest give it some more time and install the game when the issue is fixed, so you have a nice clean install, without the current hiccups.
