Guild Wars 2

Was just doing the meta, we had 2 blighting towers down, 25 mins left on the clock, then the entire map gets a loading screen for Dragons Stand and we all find ourselves in the same groups but just in a map that has reset?!

Lost all of our participation, entire event reset. What a waste of all of our time.

This is unacceptable. It’s one thing is a collection is bugged, but when people spend over an hour in a meta only to lose everything? This is the stuff that makes people quit games. This should be a top priority fix right now if it isn’t already.

Yeah, DS definitely reset on us. We all got sent to new maps, etc. Super obnoxious, so I hope it gets checked out soon!

Thanks for all the hard work Loveyoumeanit <3~

Seconded. This happened to the map I was on about 45 minutes ago. Given the amount of stuff that is gated behind a successful meta event (map completion, access to the Crystalline Ore Collector, …) this is unacceptably frustrating.

This is an old bug with Megaservers.
It is here from the beginning.
But ANet keep ignoring it.

In addition to this, if you crash or d/c at the end of the meta you can’t get back into the map. I can see people that weren’t on the map originally not getting in, sure, but to make it where the people that just spent almost 2 hours get screwed out of loot that only drops at the end of a meta? gg – Was about to land at the statue chest, crashed, didn’t get anything cause i went to a new map

We just had the same thing with final boss at 30% ‘ish health… everyone gets a load screen and we’re on a completely new map that closes in 53min.

Anyone know why this is happening? Saw people mention it’s not the first time so maybe there’s some way to avoid it?

I would be in game running Dragons Stand, but instead I’m playing another game cause I don’t want to risk 2 hours of my life for something that’s just going to bug out on a grand scale.

Any word from the devs on this would be greatly appreciated, we know you read the boards, please respond.

Maps reset because at one point there was the notification to hop onto another server. Despite filling the map, and the timer disappearing from the UI, it is still counting down.

Hmm, I’ll grant you that might have been the case for the Verdant Brink map where the same thing happened to me yesterday. If so, that’s still a major bug that needs fixing very, very badly. But as for the Dragon’s Stand map where that happened to me on Sunday, I’m fairly sure I’d been in that instance for more than an hour and I never saw the map change notification.

Why am I not surprised?
