Guild Wars 2

I share my PC with my daughter so that we can play GW2 together. Because of that I use two shortcuts to identify her account and mine using these switches in the command line (-nopatchui -email -password -clientport 443 -maploadinfo).

When I start the game using either shortcut the game stalls at a white screen waiting for an SMS or E-Mail auth. Is there anyway to turn that 2 step off? Is command line support gone?

I was going to see if the new launcher would be more friendly with Steam so that I can play with my daughter side by side without having to suffer with my laptop GPU power.

If you already know what the problem is, what’s the problem? Simply login to account.arena.net (or launch GW2 normally) to prompt the authorization and select to remember your IP. Using those command line options have always caused it to stick on a blank screen when your IP isn’t authorized. You can’t disable 2FA, since it defaults to email authentication.

Knowing that something is wrong doesn’t make it not wrong otherwise why would you report any bugs/issues. Just accept the fact that <insert bug here> exists and move on.

I thought that this might have been an unintended change to the launcher that could be fixed.
