Guild Wars 2

Since the last patch I have experianced and many others have also disconnects while out in WvWvW. Im sure its covered and I wish I had more details other than this is the only place it happens and its very random when it does. Usually happens when you get where you want to go and are about to defend or try to take something so you end up missing out.

We keep getting this whenever we go near any of the hills on the borderlands. Whole parties disconnecting at the same time as we get close.

Several people posting this as an issue in several BL’s (WSR, RoF – both EU….) in other threads too. Seems that the keeps are borked (attempting to enter own Keep by foot, or wp, causes a crash).

Mods…take a look please. WvW is unplayable like this.

From what I’ve been told, the issue is with the Waypoints. Each time you get near a Keep which has a waypoint (so, garrison for example), you get disconnected.

This bug only seems to occur in the borderlands, and not in EB.

edit : The issue is also described in this topic :

Unfortunately this isn’t quite accurate as it’s definitely been happening in EB in our matchup (GH/RoS/Dz). Mostly in the blue corner, but also at Klovan – no waypoint involved (of course green keep has a waypoint so it could be related…)

Geez… this is sad. I was hoping at least one WvW area was spared.

Lots and lots of disconnects in wvw for me the past few days. It has made it completely unplayable. As soon as I get something set up I d/c, so there’s no point. This is Sanctum of Rall server, happens in every borderland and most frequently in EB and doesn’t seem to be related to any waypoints or keeps for me. I get d/c in just about anything I do (only place so far I’m safe seems to be underwater).

Also see discussion here https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/pvp/wuvwuv/Disconnecting-in-WVW/first#post2077600 which relates, seems it it quite widespread.

FWIW I’m not getting disconnects when this happens, I get a CTD. And it doesn’t appear to be just in WvW either, I had crashes in Orr too.

We are getting disconnects on JS border. I am from SFR border

I have exactly the same problem, i’m nearly always in wvwvw when I play GW2 and i’m getting tired of crashing at least once per 30 minutes, sometimes even 3 times in a row within 10 minutes. It started on the borderlands so I played EB but now it happens there as well… Im from Underworld btw.

Edit: It’s happening in the normal world as well now, not only in wvwvwv.

we cant take points on JS border!

On RoS more and more areas become “bugged” and the client crashes there.
For our matchup its now RoS Bl : Garrison and Bay
complete Dzagonur Bl or only RoS Spawn (not sure here)
also dont know anything about Gunnars Hold Bl
in EB the area around Klovan seems bugged and crashes occur in the Dzagonur Corner.

It really takes the fun out of WvW if you crash everytime you go to certain locations.
But whats even worse is that were not getting a single response. At least tell us you know about the problems and work on it or something like that.

Hi Anet, plz, plz can we have a reply on this. Our matchup this week, has been, very fun, but has been made a farce, score wise, by these disconnects!

Just read our matchup thread: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/pvp/wuvwuv/GH-vs-ROS-vs-DZ

Yes, I know there is a lot of other stuff there, but for about 48 hrs now various locations have been death to anyone who enters! It seems DZ could not really enter EB for about a day because their spawn caused disconnects!

Some kind of response explaining why this has happened and hopefully saying it will be resolved for next week would be great!

Sounds like a game bug to me, rather than a server issue, judging by the number of servers involved.

The location specific nature of the problem makes me wonder if it is something at those locations causing the issue. As it is a new problem, could it possibly be a bug, occasionally, with placement of the newly introduced traps? Just a thought.

Bump bump bump bump

(edited to add new closed thread with mod answer)

Right.. and despite your kind warning I did get my hopes up Well atleast they acknowledge the situation. I hope it’s resolved before the reset or it’s going to be hell.

I played open world pve last night for about 4 hours and no disconnects, soon as I get into wvw I get booted within 5 minutes, so for me at least, it’s confined to wvw only. I haven’t noticed it in the mists pvp yet, but only did a hour or so of it yesterday.

ty Devon for a reply finally, you may want to go post here as well— https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/tech/Lag-Long-Loading-and-Error-7-11-3-189-101

Since for the last week ppl have been putting in the information as a Dev requested on disconects/lag issues in there and haven’t had a response from anyone there,also there are a few other threads in the WVW subsection of complaints in regards to this problem from the last weeks update.

thanks again for the acknowledgement that your all working on it for us .

cheers
