About a day ago I finally got around to updating the game after not having played for about a month, it appeared to successfully update so I left it for a bit – I didn’t attempt to play it immediately. When I started the game up several hours later it hit a bit of a snag in the form of a data archive check which then progressed into wanting to re-download 228,000 files. Being stuck with 10 Gigs per month worth of download I can’t really do much about this and I’m not sure what may have triggered the failure of the check, I’m afraid it might have been caused by temporary internet issues etc.
Is there any way of trying the check again? I’m really at a loss about how to deal with this issue.
you can try the -repair command (See Part 1.1)
Since you have data caps, I suggest making backup copies of your GW2.dat file incase of corruption or bad patching.
