Guild Wars 2

Alrighty .. situation update ! when I hit Log in on the forums page I get this “Login Error: You do not have access to Guild Wars 2.” and I have to use my laptop to post …

Inculpatus cedo.9234:

The bugs you are experiencing likely have more to do with the recent patch, than linking the accounts.

Regardless, you can contact the CS Team for assistance using the link above/below.

Good luck.

Thank you for the quick reply. What link ?

Hello,

So in short I managed to remember my old email and GW1 password and decided to link my accounts, I logged in on the website, went to “MY ACCOUNT”, then to “Link Accounts”.
I typed what seems to be the right email and password but for some reason it automatically sent me to the “Edit Profile” with my old GW1 email under Change Account Name.. along with just random letters and numbers as my display name ..

In-game however, I don’t know what happened but people can’t whisper me anymore, I always show as Offline and I can’t see any of the guilds I’m in ( this is what I have noticed so far)

Halp ..

I’ll make this as short as possible but please don’t ignore it like the last time where I had to spend a couple of weeks on Reddit to get a fix -.-’’

I can’t download the new patch. As soon as I start the game I get this shown in the picture below and here are the details:

I’ve been having some REALLY bad lag spikes specially when I’m around people in WvW, skill latency as well in PvE but its tolerable. I should point out that this started after I got my game launcher fixed and did notice the download speeds dropping down to 30 kps and up to 2 mbs ..

Location : United Arab Emarites – Dubai
Time and date of incident (plus time zone) : January 15, 2015, +4 GMT
*Game World: Gate of Madness
Brief description of what you’re seeing
Skill latency, people rubber banding all over the place, chat latency .. good ol’ lag

NOTE: I did take a few speed tests on different sites and apps and got a ping average of ~3 ms if that helps

Solved thanks to Astral

files size ~ 4 GB

Worked ! thank you very much

Thank you for the reply. I tried the fix but it didn’t work and looking at the forum it looks like I’m not the only one having issues with the magical 2 files ..

Sometimes the error pops up at like 110 mb and the launcher keeps updating until exactly 130 then the speed drops to 0 and thats it ..

I’m having the same problem but sadly I’m still stuck at 2 files and I keep getting an error -.-"

So ….. when will this be fixed ?

Hello,

I updated the game yesterday and it ran just fine .. however a few hours later when I start the launcher its updates and says “Remaining Files : 2” and when it reaches 130 MB I get the error you will find attached in a txt file.

The overall progress stays on 0% and the launcher doesn’t freeze. all what happens is that the download speed goes down to 0 kbps and the error pops up.

I tried repairing the client for what its worth and same thing happens ! 15 mins into the repairing process the same error pops up.

I see your point and I totally agree since I play on a mid range PC and struggle with GW2 sometimes even in Teq fight..
However you can work around it with lowering the number of people who can get into the map and increasing the number of maps for example.
It was just an idea out of frustration .. if we’re not getting an expansion at least let us do something rewarding .. anyhow thank you for your replies.

Hello,

Since Anet takes pride in the way their “Dynamic Events” run, which is (lets face it) its just a loop which you can interrupt. So with the living world going how is this for a change:

I would love to play a map/update/event where you can do actual progress and not do the same mission over and over like they did with the toxic tower where you just do the exact same thing over and over to fill the bar.

Declare war ! .. give us a rectangular-ish map that is divided into 12 parts each “unlocks” within 6 hours gap from each other. The way it unlocks is that the NPC’s will push a bit of the map and then hold it (to rest or whatever) then go in again for the next part ..etc.. make it REALLY hard in terms of challenge and not 1-hit kill .. trap the players in a valley and make it rain arrows from up top forcing us to use shield bubbles to get through. make us go through a pitch black dark area and force us to use torches that we can’t drop.

And by the end of the week we do our final push on a base or a dragon castle .. push the limit a little bit and stop making repetitive events. instead give us something that makes the player feel like they did some progress and not just rinse and repeat. Announce a time for the final battle and add lots of mobs ! I want to see 50 risen warriors moving toward us with 20 risen abomination behind them and a dragon in the back.

Force the community to come together for once.

…..BUT you guys gotta stop it with the huge focus on the gem store……

Are you under the mistaken impression that the Servers run on moonbeams and Anet is a non-profit organization?

Please grow up.

^ This. There’s nothing that gives any cash shop users a stat or competitive advantage over free players.

Anet has to make money somehow.

Just to clear things up .. I already mentioned that I spent money on gems and its not that I’m an idiot wasting his money on an online game .. its the fact that I am lucky enough to be able to spare $10~$20 a month to throw into the game not only to get gems .. but its my way of supporting Anet.

As for the gold farming .. in my guild alone I know people who farmed thousands of gold for a pre .. the gem ~ gold system is flawed and the fact that there is a button that says “GET MORE GOLD” on the TP is kind of a cheap move but then again companies run on money not on dreams and rainbows.

And even though I am 100% with the whole “making it available for plays who can’t afford it” .. this is a money making company after all and not a charity .. instead of farming the game for a few month. Get a job for a couple of days and you will be able to afford it.

Like I have already mentioned .. its been almost 2 years and not a single thing changed in terms of expanding the gaming experience .. this is not an offline single player game, then NEED new content. something that will make us the veteran players want to throw another year into the game.

I don’t want to complain about the game because honestly that would only open the door for a never ending list of complains and arguments plus no matter what I still love the game. Great job.

However .. you gotta stop the money hoarding .. I understand that not every dollar we spend goes into Anet’s pockets, and I also understand that in order to move forward and improve the game .. you guys need time and money. And yes we all know that based on all MMO’s history .. a step forward can be very risky BUT you guys gotta stop it with the huge focus on the gem store.

Its bad enough that we have to literally gamble with the Black Lion Keys and after spending $200 on keys and getting 19 scraps I gave up on the whole idea.. and with the new “increased the chances of getting tickets” update but added a CRAP TON of other dyes that you can get ? anyone with basic knowledge of probability knows that the % stayed the same or even became lower ._."

Give us more than balancing the game and adding some minor changes then making a big deal out of it (with all due respect to those who put the time and effort into it, you guys did an amazing job) but we need something like an expansion .. something that makes us want to come home everyday and play the game for 10 hours .. not like Dry Top .. the smallest area in game with things that you can finish in an hour or two. We’re not idiots ! the reason we stay is because we love the game and still have hope.

To wrap this up, I’ve been playing for over a year and a half now and looking at the game at day one .. and the game now .. Not a single “actual” update other that balances and minor changes which is basically LEGO pieces of the game.

I just want to say that I would gladly do what I did for GW1 and pay for an actual expansion that offers races, classes, weapons, maps .. something that feels like a whole new game .. over spending a $100 on a sword skin and a mini set.

I apologize for the long post.

*PS: DO NOT. DON’T EVEN CONSIDER adding and expansion to the game that we can buy with gems because most people will farm the kitten out of the game and not pay a single dollar.

FIX : Just in case someone is having the same problem, which in my case was caused by Ultrasurf changing my proxy settings.
Just go to ( in Chrome)

I’ve given it 2 days .. and I have already submitted a report from the in-game tool and still no help

I’ve been having this issue for a while now and I don’t know what to do.. the trading post is just blank pages ! I can’t sell/buy.
I’m running Win7-32bit and so far I have tried :

1- Running as admin
2- clearing the cache in the “Temp” folder
3- a few “fixes” I found online like changing and language but nothing wroks

I’m gonna try and make this as short as possible.
I’ve seen enough people fighting over tags in PvE area, you port to LA and you see like half a million Commander and worst of all you go to WvW only to find 4 tags up and arguing, you pick one to follow and he or she ends up driving the entire group off a cliff.

Commanders tags should be taken away. Refund the gold, take the tags and prevent a player from simply “buying” the tag.

- Rank system : there has to be a ranking system. Simply buying the tag is just not fair for the good Commanders ! the player should have enough experience in WvW to be able to lead.

- Colors or Icons: PvE Commanders should not be allowed to just tag up in WvW and run around like they know what they are doing and they sure as hell shouldn’t have the same tag.

- Feedback/Votes or whatever: No matter how hard it is to get something, people always find a way -.-’’ just look at all those people with a legendary and have no idea how the most basic stuff work (wut? bots? no way!) the players should have the right to force a Commander to tag down WITH like a 20 mins cooldown !

- Tag inactive timer : automatically tags down when the player is afk for an X amount of time. I do not enjoy.

PS: its really unfair that there is literally nothing in the game that separates the skilled WvW from the skilled PvE players, legendary weapons are nothing nor are the ascended or titles ( which anyone can get just by sticking to a zerg all the time ). You complete 100% of the map and you get a little star for everyone to see. You kill 100’s and 100’s of people in WvW, become a very good well known commander, and you get nothing.

Sorry about the mistakes and the long post.
