I have a problem doing shift+click to a place in the map, to show the name of that place in chat.

Sometimes it shows a wrong name, example, I shift+click “Klovan Post”, but the chat shows “Quentin Post”. I then need to repeat the action and it shows the right one (plus apologies in chat for calling a wrong place in WvW, very annoying)

Not sure if this only happens if you have the game in a different language (not english), maybe, because I ask to people in chat if they have the problem and no one answer.

I have never had the issue and I’ve never seen people reporting it. I play with several people who use non-English settings.

I would recommend you contact support with a few specific examples. It’s possible there is something wrong with the database file on your computer (gw2.dat) and repairing or replacing would resolve the issue.

Support can help you figure it out.

Good luck.

Is not that (corruption, etc), I mean, I can click the same “point of interest” 100 times and it will show the correct name on chat, but if I play 1 hour without opening the map, it’s possible the very first shift+click I do shows wrong name in chat, the problem is the map, not the chat, because I could even see the wrong name on map too. I think is something like “lag” on map not updating the name of the previous mouse over.
