Guild Wars 2

I’m not sure if this is the right place to post, but I have just formatted my PC. Reinstalled Guild Wars 2 and loaded. I find this patching to be extremely big. As I don’t have that good of an internet speed, I would like to know if there is any way I can download the patch manually and apply it.

try using a different DNS other than your ISP’s default one. Try google or opendns

Sorry kirito, i have no idea what you just said… I’m don’t know computers that well. So i don’t know how to do what you just suggested. Say I do what you suggested and the download speed increases. The patch would still very big. Say I reformat my computer again some time in the future which would be inevitable, the patching would be even bigger then as a new patch comes out once every so often. Which is also why I asked if there is any possible way I can either save all the patches that has occurred and when I need to patch up because of formatting my computer again, I can just go to that and at least get a head start on the patching making the patch much faster.

Before re-formatting just backup the GW2 folder containing gw2.dat & gw2.exe file, should be ~15GB. After installing windows again, copy the gw2 folder back.

Thank you kirito, you’ve been a great help. I hope that if anyone who does need this information as well. They can get this information for their own uses.
