Guild Wars 2

I would probably file a support ticket and see what they can do for you.

Please update your video card drivers from Nvidia’s website — only install official drivers and not beta drivers.

Then try again.

Is this the first time this has happened before?

Have you tried the -repair or -verify option?

That is a spam/phishing attempt.

If you went to the link they gave you and tried to log on, you just gave someone your GW2 login info — please change your password!!

Definitely worth playing — in fact.. play all the campaigns and the EotN expansion.

Good tip: Turn on Frame Limiter so it doesn’t fry out your video card. That’s still an ongoing issue with older cards since beta/launch.

You could of built that yourself for far less. But if you have money to throw away, be my guest.

Please read the FAQ on the Support site as well.

I’m sure they will add a few dungeons. Don’t expect anything mind-blowing though. Most people will just skip all the mobs anyways.

It’s not permanent. They stated you can switch between the specializations if you wanted to.

Where did they state this?
Not because I don’t believe you, but because I’d like to show the post to guildies.

It was during their live Q & A session.

It’s not permanent. They stated you can switch between the specializations if you wanted to.

lol so it will be pay to win
and another dead game for me

So I guess every game is pay 2 win for you.

And every game must mean pay 2 play.

Ugh.

LOL — and they said we have the friendliest community in all of MMO’s.. LOLOLOL

I’m sure that they will. They have 2-3 shows they stream talking about features and changes — you can definitely count on them streaming content on Twitch.tv

This is a problem that’s happened to me multiple times. Previously, either flushing my DNS or switching my DNS to Google’s public DNS fixed the problem. No such luck with the latest patch. However, using:

-assetsrv 62.154.232.187:80

worked. I’m in Minneapolis, US, with Comcast.

I’m in Minneapolis as well with Comcast — but different assetsrv worked per Chris.

Chris Cleary.8017:

Each of these asset servers (above) are hosted by a different CDN, so swapping might help ^like it did above. Keep letting me know if this solved your problem or not.

That being said, after you patch, you are probably going to want to remove that from your target line. Our assets are normally dynamically served across multiple CDNs, and keeping it stuck at one might impact future updating.

Sounds good. I removed it from the shortcut. Once again, thank you for replying!

Chris from Anet replied to this post here and the 2nd assetsrv command he gave me worked and I can now play!

Go check it out.

Chris Cleary.8017:

If you are still having problems, try adding this to your GW2 Shortcut Target:

-assetsrv 62.154.232.187:80

If that doesn’t work, try

-assetsrv 151.249.90.138:80

You can do this by right clicking on your GW2 Shortcut and adding the above text to your Target field. For example your target should look like this:

“C:\Program Files (x86)\Guild Wars 2\Gw2.exe” -assetsrv 62.154.232.187:80

Let me know if that works

Thank you, Chris for looking into this!!

The 2nd -assetsrv 151.249.90.138:80 option WORKED!!

Thank you thank you thank you!!

The more I read about this issue the more it makes me think it’s an Internet or ISP issued, people that have found work around have done so with changes that effect there Internet connection or it just cleared up on its own. There also could be an issue with how you connect wifi or Ethernet cable, if it’s wifi try a cable. Here’s a thought try to check for latest drivers for your network hardware or firmware updates for routers.

I was able to play Wednesday night and Thursday night… Anet released a small patch sometime on Friday.. got home from work, loaded it up.. stuck at 1 file. Tried 2 diff computers on 2 different ISPs and stuck at same issue. Both are wired ethernet, all firmware/drivers updated. Tried direct to modem connection on both. Same issue. Tried VPN on both using several different VPN configs, same issue. So no, it’s a full Anet issue they refuse to look into.

CrazyD.5046:

It’s working today. However, I’ve read where many people have problems as the install nears its end.

Definitely not working for me today — I just did a fresh install.. still stuck at 1.

Tried another computer at the office, different ISP as well. Same issue.

It’s a ANet issue they refuse to look into.

Yup, still can’t play. Stuck at 1 file. None of the workarounds that people post work. Still nothing from ANet.

You also need to remove that link because it’s a hijack link — which is not wise to post in the forums — otherwise if someone else click on it, their GW account will be compromised as well.

Guillotine — of course it’s a scam. Did you not read the yellow warning below the mail message that states “This message was sent by another GW2 user. This mail did not come from ArenaNet.”

SCAM!!!

If my connection was being throttled, I wouldn’t be downloading at 100Mb/s through the launcher to complete this 1 file — changed back to default ISP DNS servers. Same issue. Changed back to Google’s DNS servers.. same issue. Changed to Open DNS servers.. same issue. This is a GW issue.

Yeah, I’ve deleted the local.dat, and changed language.. all versions stuck at 1 file. No go.

Gaile Gray.6029:

So sorry for this inconvenience. Thanks to our server and network teams, it was short lived, and we appreciate your patience.

Short lived? It’s still happening. Please update us!

You don’t need to change your IP to just download this one file.. just silly. C’mon guys… that’s like saying you need to unplug your monitor from your GPU for it to download the last file.

Lots of people on reddit also posting about this issue too now.

Yeah, a majority of us are stuck in the launcher with 1 file left to update and it downloads gigs and gigs of trash data and never completes… so you’re in the same boat.. been like this since Tuesday’s update. Still no official response from Anet. I can’t play either because of that one file left.

Dieallknow.1387:

Ya only reason i posted it was so peeps know what is going around.

Of course. Thanks for that.

Wish I could go, but can’t. I hope good news comes out of the event.

My ticket #1140902.

Filed ticket.

Request #1140902

This is ridiculous. Still no response from ANet.

Yeah, stuck at 1 file left at launcher.. downloaded 15GB already and it’s still going. One other post on here.. someone has been stuck at 1 file for the last 3-4 days since patch and has already download 80GB of it.. and still can’t play. I can’t either. Forever downloading 1 file which is just garbage.

Now posts are starting to show up about this issue. One guy posted he’s been stuck at 1 file for the last 3-4 days since the patch and already downloaded 80GB already of the 1 file. Great job, Anet. Still not fix. Can’t even log on to play because of this.

I can’t figure out why no one reads the warning message down below

Did you try contacting support?

Also, read this and see if it helps: http://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/2sgo3j/is_anyone_else_still_having_issues_with_the/

Already tried all this — doesn’t work for me

1 file left to downloaded.. already at 15GB downloaded.. gonna stop it soon.

I’ve already done all this and I’m still stuck at 1 file left — and it’s already downloaded 14GB already. Still not fixed.

Ateon — I hope they fix it soon, I was at least able to play last night.. but tonight.. patcher said I needed like 600+ files.. now stuck at this one.. now at 14GB d/l. I’m gonna stop it soon.. this is just beyond silly. FIX THIS ANET!

Same here — I’m stuck at 1 file left to download and it’s now up to 14GB already downloaded…

I’m stuck at 1 file now as well.. and it’s downloaded 13GB already and still growing… I know the patch isn’t this big. The game itself is 25GB download.. feels like to me this is just downloading a bunch of garbage.

I’m trying to log on today — and the launcher is telling me I have 1 file to update.. and it’s up to 13 GB downloaded.. I know whatever they patched is not that big because I cannot find a search for this issue at all… not here, and not reddit.. not anywhere. Because of this 1 file still waiting to update — I cannot play.

Anyone else with this issue?

You might want to get rid of that Fisher Price internet. I’ve been playing since launch and never really saw any lag issues.

I thought the tutorial was 1-80?

I’ve never seen a CPU or a new GPU for $100 — unless it’s super old. Good luck. You might as well check Newegg or Amazon and see what you can find.

I’d say if you have the money and the skill points.. especially when you have a huge abundance of them, I would just pay for it to save you the headache of waiting to get something.

Game was name based from the original lore of Guild Wars… actual Guild Wars took place a long time before the story of the first GW.

Oh man, I love copy pasterinos!

Please update your video card drivers from Nvidia or AMD.

According to your diagnostics here, you installed a BETA version of the drivers that were released on 12/13/14. The most current and OFFICIAL (not BETA) drivers was released on 12/23/14 (347.09).

Install those latest drivers and give that a shot. Please stay away from the BETA drivers — they are unsigned and don’t usually work too well.
