Guild Wars 2

….and since it IS our home instance, can we get more from each node please? :-D

Client crash every few minutes no matter from where. ….

To remember our fallen in such a way would make for a closer community.

I’d be satisfied with a one time per account name change! Make it so!

Constant disconnects in the Silverwastes tonight. Very frustrating!

When the beta ended, I looked up at the clock and couldn’t believe my eyes, 2 hours had past! I had no issues with the beta test except that it ended too fast.
Can’t wait for the next round.

Happened to me once, but I just thought it was a ‘senior moment’. :-D

Same problem here. My ranger is Sylvari if that makes any difference. It’s very irritating to go through a whole dungeon run with annoying swoop sounds emanating across the room from another family member’s computer who is in the same dungeon with me. Not to mention the family member who has to endure the bird stuck in my head and sound during the run. Not fun for sure.

AND – Wouldn’t it be great to have instances scale to party size? Up to a certain point, of course.

Just adding my 2 cents here…. what do we do with the odd leftover amount of gems now sitting in our wallets? What if we want to buy only 200 gems, etc.? I vote for integrating the old system into the new system. Please fix this.

I’ve been having the same problems as others and so I did the test below. This test is from support. My findings/numbers were good. So I’m not sure what is going on.

Same giant lag-balls and disconnects. They started yesterday for me and continues today.
Washington State, too. Comes and goes wherever I am playing in the game. I’ve reported in-game and here. I usually have no problems playing.

I don’t run any overlays in GW2 and I’m still experiencing giant lag balls. I have just now logged out of the game from frustration….

Yesterday started lagging for me. I cannot play a dungeon without lagging and getting kicked out of the client. Today, I’m experiencing the same horrible lag in story-mode instancing. I have nearly the same setup as Drennon. (except Intel i7 w/16gb Ram, same GPU). Skills take many seconds long to activate, if they do. Alot of my chat is VERY delayed. I hope this returns back to normal play soon.

Last night the game was unplayable and it just started crashing one after the other.
I kept getting the Invalid Character Motion crash. Mostly while in Lion’s Arch.
Game repair didn’t resolve it.

Windows 7
Processor: i7
Ram: 16GB
Gpu:GeForce GTX 760
System:64-bit

It’s not just Verizon…. I have Comcast and have experienced the lag and disconnects today. (Washington State)

I had a lag problem in Dry Top today, too, with frequent disconnects. They seem to come and go as they please. Someone needs to let them know that they are not welcome!

YES! Please let us skip cut-scenes, especially when we need to repeat them! It’s not fun to be held hostage by these when playing through them again and again.

Same problem… I finished my backpiece about a week ago and I had the cultivated seed in my bank, but now it’s a pet seed instead.

I had the same thing happen to me. I used ‘dodge’ to fix it.

It would be helpful to see a date/time stamp on the posts when entering the front page of the forums. And a sort function would help too. Thanks for looking.

I would like an invite as a student as well. Thanks!

I have 8 and only showing 6. With this many people having the same problem I’m sure a fix is soon coming…. fingers crossed :-)
