Guild Wars 2

I downloaded the patch via the 32bit client after the 64bit client failed to. The 64bit client also fails to run even though the patch has been downloaded via the 32bit client.

Can’t loging anymore after new build.

Anyone having same problem ?

One PC managed to get the patch, started to login then failed now can’t get back in, PC which was playing happily got kicked zoning and now stuck can’t even begin to patch.

I had same issue. I solved that by switching to 32bit client.

Having the same problem, RIP ANET GG

Yes same issue as in my post too.

With the 64 bit client same problem…

I tried with the 32 bit client. That`s working. But with this one on the Dragon Stand the game will crash…

been seeing many more ‘unable to connect’ and ‘timeout’ messages in the last 2 months than in the previous 2 years combined . .

I tried to log without ReshadeUnlocker and worked fine …..when I started using it ….got the error message.

Now I can’t even log without using ReshadeUnlocker …..I guess sumnt wrong with Anet servers

so it’s a 64 bit client problem.

GG. Either we get the 32 bit client and we just crash all the time, or we can’t log in at all.

Same problem here, 64 bit client doesnt run even ater updating trough the 32 bit client.

Got full update but can’t Play
Still Retrying………..

Bump. Same issue with 64 bit client. It doesn’t even begin to update.

Same problem here. Arenanet does not test things before they go live…

Similar issue here. I just tried updating my game, I have the 64 bit client, and it keeps disconnecting.

Same here QQ

Same, not working on 64 or 32 bit, just “retrying”

My laptop updated and runs just fine on the same connection btw.

Edit: Updated with the 32 bit client now, 64 bit is still retrying.

I have this same issue after every update. Why?

Update: 64 bit client started to update, lets see what happens.

having issue connecting with the 64 bit client getting no download and then connection error retrying i check my firewall and every this is the same.

I have the same problem with the 64-Bit client and when I want to switch to the 32-Bit client, it wants to download the whole game again (roughly 300.000 files)… anyone having the same problem? I don’t want to download the game again.

Patching works by downloading an updated launcher, then downloading the patch to Gw2.dat. If you run the 32-bit client, Gw2.dat is updated, but you still need to update the 64-bit exe.

I’m assuming you’re seeing connection errors detected? It should pass eventually.

i get the same thing here with having issue connecting with the 64 bit client getting no download and then connection error retrying and other wise i can do any thing i normally do . hope they get this fixed soon

I confirm running the 32 bit client is the solution for my husband and myself aswell. 64 bit did eventually start up (after adding the -assetsrv + ip), but it remained at 5-6kb.

32bit client loaded in 15 seconds total.

Can confirm, only a problem on 64bit client for me as well.

same here (64bit)

Confirmed.

64 bit client cycles between “Downloading (1k/0k)” for a short time, then “Connection error(s) detected. Retrying…” for quite a while.

Something definitely broken with the 64-bit client. 32-bit client updated/launched normally.

anyone know where i can get the 32 bit exe? i replaced it with the 64 bit and now i cant play

Yes could not update with the 64 bit. Updated with 32 bit, tested if I could log in after that with 64 bit but could not. 32 bit works normally.

The launcher cannot log, is trying to download 1kb and then connection errors and keeps retrying to log…

64 bit launcher

Cant log in. Currently running the 64 bit as well.

I managed to login after patch was downloaded…..I exit the game by mistake and now same ….keeps retrying ><

I’m running in the 32 bit client now… trying to watch my memory usage very carefully… but I was able to log into the game on 32 bit, but not on 64bit.

Same.
64 broken, 32 works.

I guess this means we have to play the disconnect-laden 32 bit now…

Same problem with updating with the 64 bit client here.

@Nyox.6278: You can download the client from My Account on this site.
Then goto the post where the installation of the 64 bit client is explained. Just read 32 bit client where it says 64 bit client.

Had the same problem with 64 bit client; the 32 bit works. They’re in Program Files (x86) Guild Wars 2.

The 64 bit client still yields “Connection error(s). Retrying ….”

P.S. The 64 bit client is now working—may just have to wait a bit for it to connect.

Same problem is happening to me with 64 bit client.

Add me to the list. Tried downloading the 64 bit client again thinking maybe it was a new version but no luck.

The game is a crash fest without the 64bit client.

Dear ANET when having users beta test your software it is customary to in some way indicate what version of the software they are testing…. prehaps by naming the file or the link to said file via some convention such as GW264bits-1-2-3.exe or something. Come on this is 101 stuff.

Yep 64-bit client is now broken. Can’t download the patch or even launch.
Sometimes it works after a few minutes of retrying. But then it DLs at the awesome speed of 1KB/s.

32-bit client downloads everything very fast.

Seems there’s no launcher update for the 64bit version yet…

It is broken for me also. Please sort this Anet, as the 64 bit client is a game changer for most of us right now! cant play a HoTs map to the end without it these days.

Ok, I just got it working by running a repair.

Go into your GW2 main folder and create a shortcut of the launcher (I used the 64 bit one). Right click on the shortcut, and select Properties. In the target line, paste exactly as follows:

“E:\GW2\Guild Wars 2\Gw2.exe” -repair

After some pausing and hiccups, this will eventually start the repair, and it should successfully patch. I have the game up and running now after doing this.

i could only find the 64 bit exe. what i did was make a copy of my .dat file, delete the 64 bit exe, download the game installer, setup a new install and then replace the dat file. its now patching

Mine just started working

I had the same problem.

Sorted it by downloading the 64bit client again before updating.

if you update in the 32bit client and then log out and restart the 64bit client it works

not sure who there did what or any thing but now i got the game to update on the 64 bit client and back to playing .

The client works again for me, but is it normal having to download 300.000 files?

That’s the full game, you messed with something !

It might take some time.
