Guild Wars 2

Steps to repeat:

• (For the purposes of this report, assume the launcher option for “Remember Account Name” is checked, the “Remember Password” option is UNchecked and you have successfully logged in to your account before.)
• Launch Guild Wars 2.
• (You will be presented with the login/download launcher.)
• (Your email address will already be filled in, and your text cursor will be active in the Password field.)
• Enter an incorrect password.
• Press Enter or click “Log In”.
• (As expected, you will be presented with the dark error screen saying, “The account name or password you entered is invalid. Please try again.”)
• Press Enter or click “Okay” to return to the Login screen.
• The Password field has been blanked out, but the “Password” field no longer has input focus!

This is just inconsistent UI construction. The UI should honor the text input cursor placement before the error was encountered and return focus to the Password field (which is where it was before the error was encountered.)

Also, a 45 char limit on form post titles is insane. I’m all for encouraging brevity and clarity, but that’s pushing it. Even twitter gives you more to work with.

How are these issues supposed to get any attention in the forum when they get bumped off the front page in less than a few hours?

I tried posting this same issue in-game using `/bug` but the dropdowns to select what area of the game the report affects don’t list the launcher program anywhere. Why are there these gaping holes in your ability to get feedback from players?

2 days and pushed to page 13 already.
