Guild Wars 2

I will do that. Granted, the Party UI bug seems to be game wide and not limited to Mac. Seems a lot more people have been experiencing it with the recent server issue that they had yesterday. But if I find any fixes that work via the mac, I’ll post it.

Right now people have used the ~repair function on PC, as well as re-installs of the game. But they have been temp fixes, and it has been reported that the problem comes back after a few times playing. So seems that Anet has a much larger problem on their hands that is getting larger and larger

thanks for the tip. However, mac, unlike PC, does not have a right click to change the properties (that I know of). Granted, haven’t learned all the ins and outs of the mac functionality yet.

But as it seems, a temp fix….

I’m a US player playing in the US, and this just started happening to me today. Got kicked out of a dungeon 3 times, with re-invites from the party each time. Not party UI shows up, nor party on map. But can see the party chat.

I"m on a MAC, so figured it was a mac issue…but apparently not.

The question is what is this ~repair function? Doubt it works on the mac-beta client…..but doesn’t hurt to try. Help on this would be great.

Anyone else having this issue? I submitted the following via support site already:

I have submitted this 3 times in game…or have tried, with screen shots.

I joined a party for a dungeon, however no party UI showed up. Tried switching to simple UI, nothing changed. Tried closing client, no change. Left party and came back, no change.
Could read Party chat, however, no party icons on mini-map.

Joined party in HoW dungeon, party members showed up as normal color players. While in HoW, it kicked me out 3 times. My guess because party wasn’t fully registering.

This frustrating to say the least, as I cannot even get part-way through a dungeon, nor will I be able to until fixed.

Earlier today, I noticed, while in a different dungeon and different party, that one person in the party was showing offline with no picture, however was talking in party chat and was in game in front of me. Though a small bug as was only 1 of the 3 other party members that was showing this way. I did not do an in-game bug report for this issue.

This issue makes any dungeon IMPOSSIBLE for me to play, and very frustrating to the game as a whole. I know that by submitting the in game report that it will go directly to the developers, however, I would greatly appreciate a reply to this matter ASAP, as I really can’t do much else in the game that I would like to (dungeons, etc) until the problem is solved.

My Guild Thala Hen Faer [THF] on the Sanctum of Rall server has had the issue multiple times of listing fewer guild members on for the daily influence than what was actually on.
For example, last night (4/20), we had three guild members that were on, actively playing from 9pm CDT to about 12am CDT. At which time we all logged off. However, the guild history feed only lists 2 members logging in.

This has happened multiple times, sometimes not counting up to 3 members.

We are a small guild, and need all the influence we can get, and it is disappointing that this error continues to happen.

yep, just tested, was about to update!

I just did all three worlds after the server reset and I got no baulble bubble from any of the end world chests.

And to make it better, I just got one bauble for the whole thing.

It might be the possibility of doing it in infantile mode doesn’t give the extra bonus. Going to go test that theory…will pst what I find

you can do any of the dailies that you want, you only have to do 5 of the choice. The customizable is so that you can put the 5 you want in your UI, so that you can keep track. It doesn’t mean once you select them that you have to do those 5 and can’t get one of the other ones.

Thank you each for your replies. Noting now that group events are the large meta events that happen in the game, and not those that lead up to them.

my concern, as I think most of the player base, from what I’m reading is the ‘smaller guilds’ I’m defining ‘smaller guilds’ as anything under a 15 active members.

Now the influence to get to the bounties is one thing. However, on a completely different note of the small guilds that want to complete content, is that if a guild wants to participate and get any credit, personal or guild, they have to have the guild event active in their own guild. Meaning, if a small guild wants to team up with a large guild, they still must go and purchase the event. explained here: (https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/Guild-bounty-hunt-Mission).

In essence for those small guilds that only have 1-2 days where enough of their player base is on to complete a guild mission of any type, they cannot go and get the rewards for the guild by participating or teaming up with another guild. Thus, having members from small guilds not reap any benefits, personal or guild wise, in any manner until they can harness the influence to purchase the guild event. Once again, giving the feeling that if your in a small guild and don’t want to join a large guild, you don’t get any benefit in the new guild mission content for any foreseeable future.

I was at least hoping to be able to participate in the events with other guilds even if my small guild hadn’t purchased the upgrade. But besides getting normal event credit, there is no reason to team up with larger guilds until we have accumulated the influence needed to even start the guild missions.

If this is al correct, I will say I’m disappointed in this, as will be some time before a small guild can even hope to start doing the puzzles, rushes, treks, etc

I have done about 15 events out in orr, both in party and out of party, and have not received any credit for the daily group event for the day.

What is considered a ‘Group Event’?

@Aigisthos,
Thanks for this post. I will be getting in those support tickets as soon as I can, and any information that might help them. I would suggest anytime that anyone makes a post here in the forums that they quote and/or link this thread so that others know to make a support ticket (maybe also where to do that), so that we can get this Mac client the best it can be.

@Hollow,
Are you wondering how to create the file that will have your spec system, or how to attach to the support ticket?

Sorry Adoh, could not get into forum to post until now..but I see that dipnlik already answered.

Felicja,

Can you give more detail info on how to run the -repair so us that are less Mac savy can run this and also post our logs so that we might help Anet discover/fix this problem?

Thanks

No problem, just getting back to checking the post myself, and won’t be able to get to going through getting the files for a couple days.

@ dipnlik thanks for tossing the link up!

Issues is still taking place. I figure that Anet is working on this.

Thanks for all the hard work that you have put into the game as a whole, and hope that you continue to work on the Mac side of things, so that even more people can enjoy this wonderful game.

Hey all, I know this is the mac beta forum section, but after browsing a bit more (although finding no fixes), did read that it helps the developers if you put your computer information for them helps on seeing what might be causing the problem. You can see how to do that here: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/mac/Technical-Problems-Post-Your-System-Specs/first#post387876

Or type it out like mine.

I didn’t have any problems yesterday logging out, but maybe one of the patches fixed this? or it’s based of a time frame of playing the game?

If I need to get to the desktop, I usually command + enter to go out of full-screen mode. Therefore the game is still in open and not having to minimize completely to save of the graphic changing of opening and closing all the graphics of the game

I have not had this happen since the two minor updates. Maybe it’s fixed? Will report back if it happens again.

Since the newest patch (Jan 28th), every time I have logged out, regardless of update or ending the game, the game has froze and I am unable to do anything except re-start my mac book.
As I have only had this problem with computer freezing with the closing of the GW2 application, I am doubting that this is a computer issue.

Any help on what might be causing this would be helpful.
