Guild Wars 2

Just change it back to what it was originally. Same day, same time please. Saturdays are hard for me and my guild

Now about silk…

BUT when it comes to maps that do have big map wide meta events the system should be changed so that once enough players enter the map and are capable of pushing the meta, the “server closing” should be cancelled

That is what we talked about last night. If a map reaches a certain pop. then the closure should be cancelled. Which we thought it had because the notice disappeared after having to WP but were still kicked out.

I wouldn’t call it a joke. I like how there is a set time for map resets so I know when to log into a DS run (or any other map for that matter) but don’t penalize us when we make it to the meta…

Last night many of my guildies and I joined a Dragon Stand run just as it was about to reset. After looting a few pods and just chilling out the map reset and we started to taxi. We had three people from our guild tag up and the rest of us taxied in.

At first it was slow but soon people started to show and we built a decent enough population to start all three lanes and were doing well. Once the first escort started we received a map closure notice.

We continued our taxies thinking that if the population increased the closure would cancel. Eventually we had a great map. Made it to the towers, finished them off, and then went to the mouth. The final Meta went really well! We were about to finish the mouth, may have had like 10% health left but very close and then BOOM! We were ported to a reset map, no progress.

The funny thing is that most of us had died at some point after the closure announcement so when we waypointed the notice disappeared.

Lastly, you can check with one of your developers as he was representing at the time. Crucil or something like that. I don’t know Dev names, just recognize the tag. I think one of our commanders even tried to adopt him out. Poor dev was probably harassed by a lot of people after the reset. (If so, I apologize on behalf of the community. Not your fault man )
ANYWAYS…
This is something that needs to be addressed. Sometimes I am doing things with my guild and I don’t want to change maps. My participation resets or I get into a map that is further along than I want to be or nowhere near I desire.

Case in point are the temple runs in Orr. I love those events but they are hard to find a map just starting out.
I have a love-hate relationship with the megaserver system. It is a great concept and I praised it when it came out, but there are some issues that need to be addressed, especially now with the way the new maps work.

Seconded, Thirded, or Fourtheded…

Did you try clearing your cache?

I have tried that and repairing the client.

EDIT 11/28/2015

After googling how to clear my cache I learned that I had not done it. After properly clearing the cache the issue has been resolved. Here is the link I found that may be helpful.

Same issue, no high ping problems however. Using the 64 bit version and has been an issues for over a week.
