Guild Wars 2

I’m gonna jump on the 7870 bandwagon here because that’s what I use and I almost always have a decent framerate with everything maxed and fullscreen 1920×1080. The only place my fps completely dies in is LA (that place was HELL on Wintersday…), but WvW I have no problems.

I’m running an AMD FX-8350 cpu @ 4.4ghz, too, btw.

Yea I suspect a lot of people are having the same issues… since they started when the newest build came out, and because I know its not a firewall/router issue, I don’t think it’s a problem on my end, but with the server.

I’ve had ANet tell me their servers are ALWAYS right, so even if you’re 99.999% positive it’s on their end, they’ll still say it’s a problem with YOUR connection…. Too bad there’s only so much you can do with troubleshooting your internet until you run out of options/patience.

As someone already said, I’m hoping tomorrow’s patch might change some things, but for me the game is literally unplayable right now and I don’t know what else to do besides leave altogether.

This issue has not been resolved – I cannot play the game as a WvW Commander. Please tell me how to reach you guys to get this resolved.

You gotta open a ticket with them and wait 5-10 hours for response by email. I’m willing to bet you’ll be told, just like I was, to check with your ISP.

Well, good to know I’m not the only person getting screwed out of being able to play…

Maybe I’m not tech-savvy enough, but somehow when my internet and ALL my other online games work perfectly except Guild Wars 2, I fail to see how it’s a problem on my end.

I’ve had this same problem since yesterday, too. ANet tells me it’s packet loss, and that there’s really nothing that I can do other than contact my ISP…

I haven’t been kicked during gameplay, I just haven’t been able to connect entirely (can log in and select character, but get kicked at loading screen) since yesterday morning.

Idk if my problem is the same as everyone else’s, but it’s kinda funny we all started having connection issues on the same day (I haven’t had issues since launch, either).

I’ve been getting this message all day, but I’m not even able to get into the actual game world, I just sit at a zone loading screen before it kicks me and gives the error code. It was playing perfectly fine this morning at 10EST, but then about an hour later I started getting this error (seriously, what changed in that 60 minutes to make the game unplayable?).

But yeah, best MMO I’ve ever played….so yes, 60 bucks well spent.

You guys realize Borderlands 2 came out like a week or 2 ago, right? And suddenly GW2 is magically on the verge of “dying”. Coincidence much?

But seriously, I fail to see why people are worried about this game dying out this early. I’m still managing to find people for events all the time. It’s like they just pop out of thin air as soon as something exciting happens. There’s also a good amount of people always online in my guild as well. So far, I have seen NO indication that this game is headed downhill, especially with its lack of a monthly fee.

Yeah, I’ve pretty much gone broke having to buy jute and other things off the TP for crafting. Scraps aren’t impossible to find, but I wish they’d up the drop rate of them a little bit.

5% less butter, 5% more scraps.

Honestly, I just use crafting for the XP. Sometimes I can make useful items, sometimes not. Because I’m not max level yet, and I get rewards towards that ultimate goal, I don’t see crafting as a waste of time. You’re going to encounter items that are used for crafting in the world, so you might as well use ’em.
