Guild Wars 2

True.
In fact it is a 12 days old response, but you are right.

Sorry for wanting an update for the people who still have troubles with that vista. ^^

(For me it was solved after the latest patch came.)

Well it is currently Jan 7th and from my understanding folks have been back to work already. So the delay has to be something else.

I know, I know.

But it’s a little bit not satisfying enough sometimes when the issue with some vistas/ bugged events/ whatever are still there nearly since the launch. (Just so you understand it is not complaining about anything really new which I want to have fixed ASAP..)

I am still convinced you are all giving your best. So keep that doing! :-)

On Sea of Sorrows server.

Event to get the cows to the cattlepult isn’t happening.

Can someone prod the NPC that is supposed to get the cows please. MIA all day yesterday. Probably passed out drunk.

Either way, please get him back to work.

I raised this a few days ago. No response and no action from Arenanet, not a high priority for them. Majorly frustrating since I can’t complete the area.

Still bugged on Tarnished Coast as well.

broken on isle of janthir too. please fix.

Nothing is happening on Isle of Janthir either. I tried talking to the NPCs’ at the tower but they have nothing to say—they don’t even open a box.

Still not fixed
Piken Square server.

still broken…

The Cattlepult is not working, it’s been quite a few days now like this. Would be nice to be able to get the vista so I can move on from this map exploration.

its really making me mad not being able to get my LAST vista…. this is more insane than the temple of Balthazar breaking every now and then.

still bugged on Yak’s Bend as of last night

Hey, just a guess, but try it out after the patch right now. Is it working for you now or still bugged?

It works, however if it was the last thing you needed for 100% for Diessa Plateau, it’s glitched. It was the last vista I needed, and I didn’t get the area completion reward. I went back and did it several times, to no avail.

Jeffrey, it really would be nice if you all could just unlock the blockages to this event. I still cannot get this thing to work for me. Yak’s Bend server.

Aurora Glade still bugged… that vista is the last thing on that location…

Bugged on Fort Aspenwood.

bugged on dragonbrand.

Finally got this to work this past weekend. It took forever for the npc to finish his discussions and allow the catapult to be useable but it finally worked.

Still a bit buggy.

Couldn’t the cattlepult simply be available all the time, regardless of the event? The only other area that I can remember which needed an event to fully explore the zone was the Skrittburgh Tunnels in Brisban Wildlands. It doesn’t fix the event being bugged, but it would allow the players having trouble to move on with our zone/world completion.

I remember having this problem on a different character months ago, so I’m just becoming impatient =/

Agree with the above. This has been bugged pretty much since release. It’s disheartening to see that after all this time, it’s still not working and I still can’t get a completion for this zone. Just kill the event altogether so the catapult isn’t linked to it and let us complete the wretched thing.

I mage it yesterday at Aurora Glade. Went there and was aviable

This event in Diessa Plains on Northern Shiverpeaks is bugged again, none of the npcs are doing anything all the events nearby have been done yet no cows are being fired, yet there is a sound going on of a ctapult being fired. I have gone to every farm nearby, and done all events that have appeared yet the catapult is still in the waiting part ready to be started yet nothing is happening.

Have noticed that the catapult is broken and not responding to any of my toons. It is the only point I need to complete the zone. Have noticed this for the past 3 days. Can we get a fix please?
Thanks

Can we form up a list of servers where Moorwatch Tower is not bugged?

We shouldn’t have to have to resort to server transfers, but it could make for a decent last resort

Still bugged 8 hours later…

Yak’s Bend had this working when I finally completed it this past weekend.

Are you making sure that you are waiting until the other charr leaves to get more cows? You cannot enter the machine until a few seconds after he leaves. If he returns it is locked again.

in Henge of Denravi the event doesnt run and you cant interact with the cattlepult

Using posts from the last few days,

Not Working:
Dragonbrand
Fort Aspenwood
Henge of Denravi
Northern Shiverpeaks

Worked (for someone in the past few days, but YMMV):
Sorrow’s Furnace 1/15/13 (worked for my roommate and me)
Maguuma 1/14/13 (source https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/events/Is-there-a-server-with-a-working-cattlepult/first#post1210066)
Yak’s Bend 1/13/13
Aurora Glade 1/13/13

Please help to update the list
EDIT 1/15/13: As I have gotten the vista for myself by swapping to Sorrow’s Furnace, I will be paying much less attention to this thread. It would be greatly beneficial if someone else maintained the list of working/non-working servers

Hey

The Cattlepult has been bugged for for a couple of days now. It’s not the whole ‘this content has been temporarily disabled’, or that it can’t be interacted with until an event is over – I’m aware of that as I have a 100% word completed character.

The issues seems to be that the event has stopped cycling. Harpies don’t attack it, Tigh doesn’t go and collect cows, and Mad Mardine doesn’t test the cattlepult at all. The whole cycle seems to be stuck, which has rendered the cattlepult completely inaccessible to be even investigated with ‘f’, making the vista impossible to reach.

This EXACT same thing is happening on Northern Shiverpeaks server as well. It’s been bugged out for at least 3 days now.

Sadly for me it is the ONE thing standing in my way for 100% map completion. >:-| Not cool Anet. Not cool.

You’d think that as many times as this event chain/ vista has broken that they’d put in an alternative method to get this vista. It’s not like it’s some big epic thing to get the vista via cattlepult or anything. It’s not like you get some cool cutscene showing your character flying through the air to go kerplunk on the top of the tower or anything. You’re just one boring loading screen away from being on top. Just putting an interact at the door at the bottom of the tower would suffice. …just saying.

The last few days I, and a few others, have been unable to complete a map area due to a broken event. The event that triggers the “Cattlepult” in Diessa Plateau has not been cycling. The Char operating the Cattlepult has not been testing it and therefore, we cannot reach the vista on Moorwatch. It is more than a little frustrating that I have been unable to finish this area. As for right now I am working on other areas but if the event is not fixed, or an alternate way to reach the vista is not created, I will not be able to get my world completion. If it makes any difference, I’m on the Anvil Rock server.

I know this is a long shot but on yaks bend I found the catapult not interactable except for one spot on the opposite side of where Mad Mardine is standing. Every other spot around the catapult had no way in interact with it.

It looks, that Aurora Glade is bugged.

Northern Shiverpeaks is still bugged. The events won’t start at all, the NPCs are stuck, and the catapult is unusable. Please, please fix it, or at least give us some other way of getting to the vista.

Dragonbrand is bugged as well. Sat around last night and today for at least 30 minutes each time waiting for the harpy event. Nothing. 99% completion is super annoying.

Fort Aspenwood still bugged… Last checked January 18, 2013
As soon as I switched to Sorrow’s Embrace I was able to get it… so, not bugged there.
Last checked January 18, 2013.

Thanks Dave!

Anvil Rock bugged atm. Assistant stays by catapult and never goes to get more cows.

Hasn’t been working for at least a couple of days on Fort Aspenwood right now.

This vista, in the Diessa Plateau, has been bugged on the Fissue of Woe server for at least a week now. The cattlepult event, which allows you to reach the vista, is unable to be performed.

This is because Max Mardine’s assistant, Tigh Snatchskull, just walks aimlessly around the ’pult, instead of getting cows.

Sent a report 5 days ago in game, no response yet, hopefully it gets fixed soon.

Thanks!

cant complete map due to cant get to vsta the one were u get shot threw the air ontop of the tower nothing working at the flying cow gun.

I am trying to get 100% world map completion to get my Gift of Exploration for my legendary. I only need the vista in Diessa Plateau where you get shot from the catapult onto the top of the tower. However, no matter what I do talking to the guy, he will not allow me to be shot from the catapult. I waited there for 30 minutes, and nothing.

This is so unfair Arenanet. Please fix this so that I can complete this map and get my legendary.

Make the cattlepult always available, I need that vista!

Still not working on Fort Aspenwood.

Also bugged as of time of typing on Anvil Rock. Tigh Snatchskull just walks around in circles like the poster 2 above me described.
