Guild Wars 2

This is the first time in a LONG time this has happened. I can log into the game and play for about 15 to 20 mins. Then CTD with the window stating there is corrupted data in the archive. I have run the repair 4 times so far today. And every time it has replaced no files or downloaded anything to fix the archive. I really do not want to Re-Download the game. I’m currently in the middle of repairing the archive again for the 5th time today while I type this up. What could possibly cause the game to be doing this?

Sounds like a disk and/or RAM issue.
Support can probably help you run checks for those if you are not sure how. You can create a ticket at https://help.guildwars2.com/anonymous_requests/new

Funny you should mention that….I did a disk check on that partition and it came back clean. I then did a Ram Parity check just to be safe and it all came back clean as well. I’m not sure what was going on. The last time I did a repair which was a couple of hours ago it did finally download some new files. 20MBs worth. So I’m guessing it finally found something to fix. And so far so good. Played an hours worth of EoTM and didn’t have any issues during that time. So, I dunno what was going on. But 5 times in a row was making me think bad thoughts. lol Anyways, appreciate the reply. Cheers

You could also check “%APPDATA%\Guild Wars 2”(without quotes). There should be a CorruptArchive.log in there. That will have the list of corrupt files although it won’t be very useful since it looks like …

I think it is fixed. for now I lead EoTM yesterday for the full 4 hour and didn’t have so much as one hiccup. I’m almost to the point of thinking that this game has an attitude at times. It works when it wants to. There are days when it runs absolutely fantastic and there are those other days when it is giving me the middle finger. lol
