Guild Wars 2

Anyone else having problems launching Guild Wars 2 and the game doesn’t load up? The icon just blinks once then nothing pops up on my screen. Nothing has changed since I last played the game, so I have no idea why it is not working for me.

Should I reinstall the game or wait for this patch that I’ve been reading about in the forums?

Well, i am having this issue after launching

UPDATE: Actually managed to login and select a character but the game stopped responding on the loading screen. Had to use CTRL+ALT+DEL. =/

Hi Wicked Rin – It’s possible that this may just be a corrupt installation, and so I would like for you to navigate to Documents\Guild Wars 2 and delete the local.dat file. Next, please try the following to repair your Guild Wars 2 installation:

1. Navigate to your Guild Wars 2 installation folder.
2. Right-click on “GW2.exe” and select “Create Shortcut.”
3. Rename this shortcut to “Guild Wars 2 Repair.”
4. Right-click on this shortcut and select “Properties.”
5. Edit the “Target” line to include -repair at the end.

Note: Please make sure -repair is outside of the quotes

Correctly Formatted Example: “C:\Games\Guild Wars 2\GW2.exe” -repair
Incorrectly Formatted Example: “C:\Games\Guild Wars 2\GW2.exe -repair”

6. Once completed, click “Ok” to save your changes.

If you get an error trying to save, your target line may not have the correct format. Please try step 5 again.

7. Double click “Guild Wars 2 Repair” to start the repair process.

Once completed, please try starting Guild Wars 2 again.

I have an issue somewhat similar to the OP, i launch the game, and it brings up the screen showing Downloading ( whatever kb ). The number loads up to 10307 kbs at a rapidly declining Kbs per second, and then closes, nothing else happens. any ideas?

I tried the repair but it only did the same thing.

Hey Ashley Segovia,

I completed the steps you told me to try but both of them still does not have anything popping up. The other programs on my computer works like normal, but I’m still having this issue with Guild Wars 2. The repair short of Guild Wars 2 I made does not solve the issue for me. I’ll try reinstalling to see if it helps.
