I wanted to repeat a post I made in the Guild Wars 2 Discussion Forum. Although I really think those threads should have been made here, in the Bugs Forum, the larger number appear to have been posted there, so that’s where I first posted. I’ll see if we can merge and coalesce to make things more helpful for devs tracking the issues.

A few issues have arisen after today’s build (which deployed about 9:00 AM Pacific time). The team is aware of these issues, and appreciates those of you who let us know about areas of concern.

We’ll be addressing the issues as soon as possible and will post an update if there is additional information to share or if we have questions to ask about a particular situation that someone has reported. As usual you will see bug fixes roll out as issues are addressed.

Thanks for your patience and understanding.

Vavume, they can’t possibly get every bug before a patch goes live. In fact some bugs don’t appear until the patch is live. They’ll fix it.

If you turn the new Light Adaptation feature off and then relog or change map it’ll still stay on even tho you turned it off.
Please fix, it makes the game way too bright :/

Do these bugs include the game randomly crashing when accessing the map or going from one area to another? Does it also include the mouse cursor disappearing seemingly randomly when I click? Because those are happening to me.

The game seems playable as it currently is. Despite the game saying otherwise, traits and skills should still be unlocked and usable for you. The daily reset is just a visual glitch (you can’t earn the achievements again) and the same appears to be true for most of the other things impacted. So basically, you should be able to play if you don’t mind that some of the UI isn’t displaying the right information.

Of course, this isn’t any sort of official answer. I have no idea what the actual fixes will include or how they’ll be deployed. I highly doubt a rollback will occur, however. It doesn’t seem like any actual data has been lost. It just isn’t being displayed properly in the UI.

Will there be a roll back to fix the numerous bugs with this patch? I hate to play the game with this many bugs only for it to be rolled back. Do I buy the skills again? Do I not?

Gaile pls do me a favour. Go to the dev team, throw the words “automated testing” in the room and watch their expression, if it’s either a) fear or b) laughter i may suggest a new dev team. This is really not good advertisement for HoT .. i just imagine the same quality coming with the expansion …

And this isn’t a one-time mistake. The last few updates have been extraordinarily buggy also — not to mention the golem week exploit that was never even acknowledged. I think it’s a good extrapolation to believe that HoT will be the same.

Unable to view/bid/buy on ANY precursor weapons on the traiding post.

When you view the item, the item name is missing and if you select the item on the TP, you are unable to place a bid or buy it because the TP just greys out and stops working.

There are some other expensive exotics that are also doing this, Aether (bow) for example.
