Guild Wars 2

1. The beginning of a round seems to be messed up currently. It worked fine before.
2. I am not getting any participation chests.

I just did it, and I got a chest. Not sure if you get one for just participating, or if you must score in some way.

Same here. I reported this like 10 days ago. But no answers..

I played some matches more and sometimes I got the chest, sometimes I did not. Totally random. Was always there from start to finish, always had top 3 points.

I’ve had several games where I also did not get a chest. Not often however.

If you get killed during the second immobilize period at the start (after the buggy period where people can pick up supplies before it immobilizes you again) you spawn without the first stack of hunger or the grace period buff. I’m gonna guess this is what causes not getting a chest, because for whatever reason the game doesn’t consider you a contestant anymore.

Yeah, Pie Formation is right. I discovered that myself after getting killed during the “bugged period”. I had no idea this was the case, so my apologies to everybody I killed in the last few Southsun Survival games. I did not intend to screw you out of getting your reward chest.

This bug still exists. For over 10 months now. How pathetic.
Please fix it already. I hate not getting chests (and no achievement advancement) because I get killed in the bugged pregame.

Another large patch went by and you can still kill people before the match starts to deny them the reward chest or progress to the games played achievement. How can such a bad bug to grief players not be fixed after such a long time?

Another related bug resulting from being able to move before the round starts: If you move away too far away from the camp fire, will be immobilized until someone kills you because it wont be removed

When will this infuriating and (mini) game breaking bug finnaly be fixed? I am starting to see people exploit this bug on purpose to grief people.
I will start sending tickets about each griefer now. Your own fault that I have to waste customer support time on this now after I waited so many months for a fix.

Another problem with this minigame: Since there is never more than one instance it happens frequently that friends and guilds go into this minigame together and ruin the all vs all character of this by teaming up. How are people supposed to enjoy this minigame if friends/guilds protect each other and team up?
Maybe it would be best to delete these minigames from this game if you dont want to devote any resources to it.
I think the small playerbase of these minigames is a direct result of the zero care you have for them. I cant remember that you ever fix any bugs in these minigames (Guardian Aegis in minigames anyone?). If you would put more effort into these more players would play them and this synching with friends would not exist.

Growing so tired of this bug

Southsun Survival?

Morelike Southsun get permanently immobilized!

That bug is the result of the bug which allows you to move and kill people before the game starts. The immoblisation cleaning only has a range of maybe 1200. So if you move away too far from the camp fire the debuff will not be cleaned.

It is have any kitten fraud!!!!!
1.Game has started before the countdown!
2. People are killing before game started and when you kill you waypoint moves somewhere and you and do not get awards!
3. And permanently immobilized!
This problem lasts longer than half a year so i ask What The Hell??

Yo Dawg…

I do not understand, instead fix serious bugs in the game such as this just smack them.
This is sad and pathetic at the same time…..

This is a serious bug. It ruins this minigame and opens the doors for griefers.

There is a bug in one of the missions of the original Guild Wars that causes the mission to be almost impossible to complete if you try to complete the bonus objective first.

The best you can do about bugs is hope that they get fixed but don’t expect it. They have priorities and it’s things like these that sometimes fall to the bottom.
