Cant download the game

Hey, it’s my first time with this game, and it’s already painful, yesterday i have bought GW2, and started downloading, but after 5h i had 0%, and like ~50MBs downloaded.. I have noticed that download speed is spiking from 0.01Kb/s to 3 Mb/s, but its still not downloading. I have tried editing Hosts file, but its not working.

Are you still experiencing this issue? We have a merged thread about issues with installing or re-installing the game, but I wasn’t sure if you were having the same problem. Can you give me an update on your situation? Thanks.
