Guild Wars 2

It expands ever time it opens not just every 6th (that’s just the bag slot wrap-around fitting in). Annoying, but not really that annoying.

I’ve noticed this happening as well and although it’s not game breaking… it’s fairly annoying and very noticeable.

This bugs me to no end. Items are not where they’re supposed to be…

This happens to me aswell since last patch, not that really annoying but could use a fix

Every time I zone, I have to fix it too. Everything is in a place for a reason. Most annoying.

Same here. Thanks for fixing this issue quickly.

Sweet. This bug is 8 hours old and unaddressed. I’m glad it’s not just me. Please fix it.

Moderators of the forum should merge this into the Opening Inventory makes my bag wider topic. Changing the wording doesnt make the bug fix any faster. Not trying to be mean but I work as a System Administrator and multiple tickets re-worded for the same issue usually get stored until I feel like working on them.

most anoying bug i have encountered in playing gw2 for 1 1/2 years

Anet fix plox.

Confirming this bug happened to me too.

Not good for my OCD.

Why were they even messing with the inventory in the first place? Please fix this it’s really annoying and my organization is completely off now because of it.

Please fix this bug, ANet. Thank you!

Just reminding that search on this forum is still broken and not always a thread for a issue you are looking for is at the 1st page… Mind about this…

Edit: thread was merged so this message doesn’t make much sense now :P it was previously directed to Turamarth.3248

My Inventory permanently rescales – before the patch it stayed the way I closed it, but since the patch it always rescales it`s size – pls fix this it’s really annoying!

I was just coming here to report the same thing. Definetely a bug created by this patch, I noticed the minute I logged back into game after patching.

ah ok didnt know this – ty, maybe mod will move my post there

Myself and the many posters in this thread would appreciate it if this bug is fixed first above all others.. It is incredibly annoying to have to keep resizing my inventory only to have it increase in size by itself.. and if left alone, it just keeps growing. Stop breaking kitten Anet!

Same inventory issue and it’s driving me a little crazy. I may be a tad OCD as I like my inventory window narrow enough to be able to open it and roam or fight, as well as liking items arranged in a certain order. But today it’s always wider whenever I open it and moves items in my bags around. Please address this issue soon.

This is one of the most frustrating bugs I’ve put up with in this game.

It’s needs an immediate fix.

Same here ! sure they will fix it

+1

Please fix this.

Hehe came here to see if someone else has this problem too..

same thing keeps happening to me too!

Same thing is happening to me and 2 guildies, i like to keep my items in a pristine order, this is altering that order, and causing me frustration to no end.

Please, fix this, its irritating as hell. Gamebreaking even… i can’t stand opening my bag now..

Yeah this is quite annoying. We did some testing and just mashing ‘i’ we went from our usual 10 wide all the way to 21 wide before it then jumped to 5 wide and repeated.

Serious wattage.

Same problem, it’s really annoying!

Nothing like opening your bag to grab a supply trap, and it not being in the same place.

This seems to happen when a new item is added to the inventory.

Seriously its getting progressiveley more annoying the more i have to deal with it…

Same here I was really hoping this would be fixed before I got on today :-(

Pls fix this…. its annoying.

my backpack keeps expanding every time i open it. didn’t see a bug report for this.

please fix soon my ocd can’t handle it.

There are tons of people already reporting this. But it is annyoing as hell indeed.
First thread I saw: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Opening-my-inventory-makes-it-wider/first

This is happening to myself and several friends as well. Each time the inventory window is closed and re-opened, it gets bigger by some fixed size.

This bug really gets in the way of using quick weapon swaps just before combat, causing the window to eventually obscure a large portion of the screen while playing WvW with a swiftness weapon from inventory.

whoops. my skimming skills need work.

People should know by now that ArenaNet does not have the word ‘hotfix’ in their vocabulary so spare yourselves the energy of trying.

I mean seriously guys, it’s been 22 hours, and they’ve responded on that ridiculous moa escorting crap which 2/10 of the population probably barely care about.

But an inventory bug wherein EVERY single one of their player base is affected? Who gives a rat’s kitten?

This. Sadly this problem will probably not be fixed until the next big patch. They didn’t even care enough to post in this thread but can spare a reply in every single “my event doesn’t work buhu”-thread.

Further testing. Set you window to 4 wide, after you open your inventory for the fourth time (whether on the same character or 4 different ones) it will resize to 5 wide. After it reaches 5 wide, it will increase the width of the window by one slot on every sixth open of your inventory. It makes no difference whether you open your inventory 6 times on the same character or once on 6 different characters, it will resize when you open it for the sixth time.

This bug is very annoying and needs to be fixed.

This annoys the hell out of me. Correcting it manually every few minutes ist just really, really frustrating.

Wow thought I was the only one having this problem, too.

I have seen a problem since long before the latest patch where my inventory window gets shrunk to minimum and moved near the center. It seemed to happen at least once a week or more. This is just the opposite and much more often. Hopefully they can fix both at once.

I’m experiencing the same thing.

+1 here.

Guys, hold on as Anet is working on the issue.

Broken achievement (which affects rewards too) vs minor inconvenience at best, which one do you really expect to have higher priority?

• The inventory window no longer slowly grows when opened and closed repeatedly.

Gotta check it in game though..

Espionage.3685:

The latter, without a stain of doubt. I like to believe that a game’s UI constitutes a major part of how gamers operate in-game. It is the inventory, a building block of any game which is individiually utilised and customised affecting how people play.

And I’m not sure how exactly you put both issues into hierarchy, but a thread that garnered over 90 replies versus one that only received 30? I think where more of the impact lies speaks for itself. “Minor inconvenience?” Tell that to the people who responded to this thread.

…casts Thread Necromancy

This bug is alive and well since the “Feature Patch.” Every time you exit the game and restart, the inventory is resized one bag space smaller in width. E.g.: If you start at 20-width, after 3 restarts your inventory will be 17-width. It only seems to affect the horizontal, not the vertical size of your inventory.

To Moderators: I bumped the most recent thread I could find as I wished to add to an existing thread describing the issue rather than start a new thread. Hopefully it is the same issue as last time allowing for a quicker and easier fix.

And I thought I was crazy from today’s patch. Apparently the inventory window had resized every time I start Guild Wars 2.
