Guild Wars 2

Cable connection is hard wired. The reason I know it’s GW2 is that not only my computer goes down but my laptop sitting next to me and my mom’s computer on the other side…and it only happens when the game is open. I didn’t play for two days and never a disconnection. I’ve played for 6 hours today and every 30/60 mins it went down…as did everything else…for about 15-30 seconds. As long as I’m off GW2, no problem. Also, I did my research, I’m not the only one with this problem.

So that’s one issue…the other is not being able to log in without deleting the local.dat file each time and rebooting my computer. You can imagine the time wasted when I get kicked so often It’s frustrating…and yes, my computer more than meets the game requirements

All I wanna do is play…is that so hard? lol

I will admit I’m having a ball with GW2 when I can play. It seems to have the best of all the mmo’s I’ve played in the last 15 years.

However…the tedious routine I have to go thru to connect (search for local.dat, delete, reboot machine, connect to GW2) then getting booted within 30-60 mins of play time (and having to go thru the reconnect routine again), is getting tiresome.

Not only do I get booted out of the game for no reason (sometimes just standing in some npc town in a 1-15 area) but my whole internet goes down. I’m reading posts from many many players with the same problems and I don’t see the GW2 folks doing much to fix it.

Thankfully I’m still under the “purchased within 30 days” so I can get a full refund from my CC company. I’d rather not as I’m enjoying this game…but I’m not willing to tolerate owning a game I’m unable to play.

Please Techy folks, fix the game so we can play the way we’re supposed to

Sadly, I’ve got the same problem…my fix is to:

1) keep the game running all day if I can
2) delete the “local.dat” file, reboot and restart the game

Pain in the bum to go thru this every time I log in. I’ve never had any problem with other games and I’ve played my fair share.

Please fix this
