Guild Wars 2

It is back again.

ISP: Sonera
Region EU (Finland)
Piken Square

I have no clue how to do that ping thing.

So, it seems that we’ll have this problem ongoing even into the new year. Thanks really for the holiday events etc, but unfortunatelly, many of us cannot even smell it, not to mention complete anything as many of us have very limited time to play after work.
As I can see it, since the holidays are here, the servers will be flooded with players all day long, so we can expect more of this issue during the day ?!

This issue is taking too much time to solve.

ISP: AT&T Uverse

Location: Austria
ISP: Aon
Server: Drakkar Lake
Server IP: 206.127.146.47:0

HELLO,
So I’ve been getting the same problem as many others, knowing that on different networks it works perfectly, maybe it is a server issue.
i also noticed that when i look into resmon on the run TAB, that the ports has changed. i usually do that to check the latency.
thank yo for your time and consideration,
best regards !

After few months i finally started up GW2 i saw new events, new content, i was hyped more then when i bought the game. And i can’t log in. More than 2 weeks passed still nothing.

PLEASE help !

THANK YOU.

Hello everyone,
i know that this can be quite frustrating, so i was seriously considering other MMOs, however just at that very last moment of making my decision i was able to solve the problem.

here is what i did,
look on google for a program called WTFast, this program promises a faster, smoother, stronger online game connection. note that you will be using it for a different purpose.
it is free to use don’t worry about it,
1. login
2. Configure
3. Browse and select Gw2.exe
4. it prompts you to choose an optimal server ( here choose anything that is different from your current region/location) for instance i went for LosAngeles server.
5. Play! ( here gw2 is automatically launched and you will be able to login normally.)

Please know that i am not sure if using such a way is legal according to anet, since you will have to authenticate your new IP in order to access the game.

i don’t really know if logging in with many new IPs in such a short period would raise a question mark, well what i am doing to avoid this is i never log out it takes me back to that character select screen, and minimize if i want to work on something else.

One more thing, you will be doing that on your own responsibility, Wtfast makes serious changes to your laptop , also while i was trying to download it the site actually had some viruses but thankfully my antivirus denied me access and i tried a different site.
but desperate times call for desperate measures !
i hope this works out for you,
thank you all.

I haven’t been able to log in all day with errors at the launcher (42:1000:7006:1215). Ran the ping tests and see 89% loss for a hop at ncnet:

8 —- 100/ 100 =100% 89/ 100 = 89% 206-127-157-86.ncsoft.com [206.127.157.86]

anyway I was finally able to get on for the daily by using the WTFast vpn that Ordo mentions above. Was sketched out by it initially because it looks quite tacky with flames and such but by connecting from Belgium it worked. I’m located in the UK if that’s relevant. The program is mentioned favourably around Steam forums and other places so that helped me get over the fear. I don’t endorse this product and can’t vouch for anything except that it did get me connected. Please get it sorted A-net.

P.S. love the new dailies, keep up the positive changes! <3

OMG good i never cone get dusk done with this i keep geting dc and i cant play becous 5 weeks seim proplem only time i have time to play and i cant play becous seim proplem i am coing mad becous it seims gw site has done noting to fix proplem ting it our router site i cheakc kitten router many time and it has no proplem only site is shows is connection of gw2 site i when i log in i get error 42 and i am not ifen dc i just on game cant to any ting error and everying forzen expect ur char

I’ve only got to play the game once and now i just keep getting this error can someone reply and attempt to help me please

Hello good people

My tempban has been lifted and I’m back to report it hasn’t helped the server issues at all. The game remains unplayable from around 6PM to 10-11PM GMT+1, and since banning me from the support forums (how kittened is that, anyway?) hasn’t helped, maybe it’s time to think outside the box. The issue has been well documented and I have no idea what information to add at this point, besides

World: Far Shiverpeaks
Loc: Denmark (that’s in Europe, for the American forum mods)

I may as well yell into the void for all the chance this problem will even be acknowledged, so feel free to ignore me after the beep.

beep

OMG just bought this game and have enough problems with trying to download it as i finally got it to download, now im getting this error code 42:0:9001:4409 when i try to sign in. Im in California (comcast) How am i expected to get this fixed? ive tried so many things to see if it works and hasnt came down to the solution….. Im gonna want a refund soon if this doesnt get fixed!!!! This is not worth my money to buying a game and i have problems with everything when i havent even started yet… WTH GET THIS kitten TOGETHER AND FIXED PLEASE!!!! thank you

17h, got dc/d 7x from wvw in 10 min.the game is unplayable.
I wonder if is there si anyone reading this from the devs, with a tiny bit of decensy,
thinking / hey, that is not nice, they pay us money for somehing and we delive nothing beause we just want more new player to buy the game, not actually play, just buy …

this is realy our fault, games with monthly fee take care of their player base .here we just get recicled old events that are even more bugged then last year. are they making some other game, is gw2 actually finished ??

Can’t log in again.

2 months you can not fix kitten you’ve messing…………….
Shame on you!

Down again, connection impossible. This bug running since 1 month…

this is my pingpath today

Got the same problem as everyone else, and it seems to be happening around the same time every day which is a terrible inconvenience since it’s around the time when people get home and are able to play. About some time after 1800 GMT+1.

Route through Telia.net was always a problematic one but now it’s even worse…is there any way to somehow change Telia.net route to another one without using WTFast or VPN?

UP

Today the same issue

Anet did you find the solution? Because the assistance does not respond.

ISP: Comhem
Server: Far Shiverpeaks.

I used to play with a friend, and he couldn’t log in for 1 MONTH. We all PAID for this game and we don’t get a simple response from the admin/GM. So, what are you waiting for? This problem must be solved.

nope still wont let me play
i brought the game Friday and installed it on the same day how ever when i try and log in i get error 42 and i turned off the firewall messed with my router all day Saturday and did all the little bits of code people say, i used the cyberghost and im not on a campus, uninstalled the game and reinstalled it, restarted my computer many times.
Ive never played the game before and i cant even log into my account, please help is there anything else, also there is nothing to help on arena net or guild wars 2’s supp pages

here we go again … for a while it was ok. today Dragon Bash update, I can not log in.
error code
managed after an hour to log in, nothing works, my char is standing in one place and when I try to interact with the merchant nothing happens. I love this game. I hate the ppl who makes it un/playable for many of us, because they / do not care, do not know how to fix anything and even when it is working they manage to break it again and again …
new events, updates are great but this, this is awful.
