Guild Wars 2

So as the title says i have the issue with the new update.
Everything went fine until I got to 1 file remaining.
I tried :
1. . -assetsrv with the available asset server on ( not all of them, but doubt that will change anything)
2. —repair, done nothing, actually program just stopped responding.
3. changed DNS to 8.8.8.8 , nothing changed.
4. msconfig and disabled all the services (apart from windows one), that use to help in the past, but no go.
5. changed language to German, still the same thing. changed back to English same thing, 1 file remaining.
I have issues with this game and patching, since I started playing again, which was more then 3 months ago. -assetsrv worked so far ( which is also horrible game design and support, that I have to do some gimmick to get the game to work) but at least it worked.
Reinstalling the game is not an option since I don’t have the code and Anet is not really helpful in that regard ( or any to be honest). I know this is free to play but the amount of money I spent in your gem store is more then any monthly sub out there. And even if i didn’t spent money the way you answer and resolve problems will just make people stop playing. For me good support is half of the game and I am not getting that here.
Anyway any other ideas? I have done everything I could find online. Should I just go with every single —assetsrv, even though I tried like 20 of them. Thank you in advance.

You need no codes, whatsoever, to re-install the game. It is a free download.

If you continue to have difficulties, you can contact the Tech CS Team using the link above/below.

Good luck.

Can you please explain this a bit more? Where do you use clientport 80?

I am also having this problem and used the solution from the earlier post about Thailand players not being able to download that last file, but it still don’t work. I am from Myanmar which is neighbor to Thailand so wondering if that same problem is happening in my country as well.

Try a VPN to get around any ISP issues. For example, try a free trial of WTFast and select a VPN server in NA, then run the game through the VPN.

Here’s an asset server you can try:

Gw2.exe -assetsrv 174.35.52.74

You’d also want to disable all startup programs under msconfig. Alternatively, under the boot tab, simply check safe boot an select networking under that, then OK and restart. Under safe mode, all non-core software will simply be disabled. The launcher will work, but you can’t play the game. It’s simply an easier way to test software conflicts.

But the 1 file problem seems to be an ISP/asset server issue.

Presently nothing seems to help advance the patch client fully. It always stops at 82MB downloaded. I still have 1700 + files to go.

Thank you for all the replys. I did contact the support and got answer to use -assetsrv 174.35.71.9:80 (maybe it helps someone else outthere) , which ofc didn’t help, or to change my IP adress, which honestly I have no idea how to do.
I will try what Helix advice as well.
And now I have a new issue, since i restarted the client, now I am getting connection error detected, retrying….
This is really frustrating.

I am sorry asking so much, but I decided to reisntall the game, but the when I run the 2set.exe I get error: gw2 set up exe is not valid win32 application….

Patch stucked at 0% and file remaining 1.

tried flushdns google public and -assrt thingy didnt work..

anyone having problem with this? currently living in NZ

You should edit that image as it shows your account name which is half your login info and could cause a security threat.

that isnt my account name so no prob.

Yes it is. Your account name is the email you use to login which is visible in your image. That aside, an old trick that used to work when stuck on one file was to change the language to French and then try to finish the download then change back. I’m not sure if it works anymore but worth a try.

tried most of above but didnt work

Ok so I mange to fix this, I had to restore both gw. exe and dat file to previous versions, then I used command /port 80 and it fixed the issues.

I also got tons of replays from support, not one helped it, but if you want I can copy those for you.
