After the patch that just went live, whenever relogging after changing maps you’ll get teleported to a different (fixed) location.

How to reproduce:

1. Switch maps by using a waypoint
2. Log out > go to character select screen.
3. Log in again.
4. Done!

Example, whenever switching from gendarran fields to queensdale by waypoint, logging out and back in again, you’ll end up right in front of the gate to Divinity’s Reach.

#Edit;

Sometimes seems to happen when waypointing within the same map as well.

I experienced this, very occasionally, prior to the patch as well. It feels a little like the game only saves my location every now and then, and sometimes it ends up being invalid or something, so I either move back, or wind up being ported to the “default” entrance.

Can’t pin down how to reproduce it, though.

Ye I suppose it is different for everyone and not all seem to experience this? I’m currently still getting this 100% of the time though and am able to reproduce it consistently.

That is actually awesome! The hardest part of fixing a problem like this is for the QA team to reproduce it. You probably best want to file a support ticket now, and mention exactly that: you have a recipe to reproduce this.

I can reproduce it every time. The only way to prevent it is to log in with another character and then relog with the original character as this prevents it from going to the default location on the map.

I’m still having this issue every single time… rather annoying.

#Edit, it actually has gotten worse. Even when just walking to a different place on the map I get forced back to the fixed location which I mentioned earlier after doing a relogin..

Did you try a -repair of the client? Did you speak to the Tech CS Team about the issue? What did they suggest? Have you run diagnostics to see if you are experiencing packet loss?

What did Support say?

I have’t spoken to support yet, don’t have much time to play/ be behind the computer atm.

I did both, repaired the client first, which didn’t help. Also ran GW2 Diagnostics and used several other tools to determine the connection, but nothing out of the ordinary. Laptop on the same network doesn’t have the issue, will try removing the local.dat next and report back once I’ve done that.

It takes as much time to create a support ticket as it does to post here. If your time is limited, I’d start with them.
