Guild Wars 2

The best long term solution for this, if you cannot get any headway with centurylink (like me and my wife), is not to use the -assetsrv cmd flag as anet has said in this thread that those servers are the old update servers and will be shut down later this year. So, what I recommend is to change your dns servers that your router points to, instead of using centurylink’s default dns settings. I tried opendns and it had the same issues as centurylink’s so I tried google’s and it worked. Here is a link on how to set it up “https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using” Tip when doing so, ignore the ipv6 settings setup, its not needed. If your not sure how to do this in your router configuration then use the -assetsrv cmd flag only until you can get help changing the dns settings in your router.

I’m in MO with centurylink and having the same problems. It sure would be nice to get some response from anet letting us know if they are working with centurylink to figure out this problem or even if there is a work around for this. I suggest we all call and complain to our ISP (centurylink) and explain that it is only their customers having this problem and if they don’t fix it we will cancel their crappy internet offering.

Its more then just matching based on rank it should also take into account the classes that are waiting for a team. You can’t put 4 mesmers and a ranger on on a team and the other team gets 3 thieves and and 2 elementalists this is just a not a fare match up. Why even call it structured pvp or even a tournament if your not going to take these things into account. Now that reward tracks have been introduced there is more then enough people doing solo queue to make balanced matches, especialy if there is multiples of a single class that are of the same rank range, SPLIT THEM UP FOR GOD SAKE!!!!!!!!!! I also think that rank ranges like 0-9, 10-19, 20-39, 40-69, 70-80 for solo queue makes more sense then the random chance of getting stuck with inexperienced players while the other team is stacked, I mean how can you call that a tournament?? Tournaments are suppose to be competitive not a steam roll!!!!
