Guild Wars 2

There’s 2 or 3 threads about this on the Norn forum already.

Alright, thanks for the heads up.

Does anyone else think the new greatsword running animation for female Norns looks kind of dumb? Personally, I much prefer the old animation. It seems like my character is just awkwardly holding her greatsword to the side as she runs.

Hey guys,
I had this problem since day 1 of headstart (no problems during betas).
Today i’ve had no problems whatsoever, either anet fixed it or my new fiddling sorted it.
I changed my DNS to use google DNS, 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4, whilst launching the game with -clientport 80 on the end of the launch instructions (see earlier suggestion by anet).

If anyone else tries this please let me know if it works or fails for them.

I tried it, but still disconnected and logged out. After that I couldn’t log back on any characters until I changed my DNS settings back.

Good new guys. I finally fix my disconnect issues. To give you guys a little overview I played the game since the 3 day head start and never had any issues until about 2 or 3 days ago. After one of those update my game became unplayable. I would get disconnect every 5-30 minutes. I tried the clientport 80 fix, the -repair fix, etc; nothing seem to work. I was so frustrated I decided to just reformat my primary drive on my computer in hopes that maybe I had corrupted drivers somewhere. My guild wars 2 was on a secondary drive so I was glad I wouldn’t have to download the huge dat file. After the reformat, my guild wars 2 was still disconnecting me to the character select screen. My last option was to just re download the 14gb dat file again. I rename my guild wars 2 folder to guild wars 2 old and went about downloading the game again. After the new install my game ran flawlessly all day. Been playing on and off for about 8 hours now with no disconnect. So to everyone with the same issues, just suck it up and re-download the whole game file again.

This may help a few people, but it won’t help a lot of us. I’ve been getting error 7 since the last few stress tests before head-start, and I’ve tried re-installing twice already. It didn’t work either time.

In response to Alpha Dragon, yes I am on a campus network, but I’ve already contacted them about the necessary ports and networking formats. The on-campus IT says it checks out. I guess they could be wrong.

I’d say there’s a a good chance it actually does check out. All my friends here in my college dorm play GW2 with no problems, and I’m the only one who gets this error.

Here’s my LSP file. Thanks in advance.

I’ve been getting error 7 since the stress tests right after Anet optimized the game. Using a cable to connect to the internet too, but always disconnecting when moving between zones or instances.

I also want to add that my friends who are on the same internet as me don’t have this problem.
