NPC names are showing

(hope this is not a double post, forums seem to be playing up too)

I’m getting the same bug, guessing it’s due to the recent removal of culling. Rather than more NPCs being visible, their name are showing up but not the npc model it self, even though NPC names are set to not show unless ALT is pressed.

I have recored this to show it clearer.

There are a lot of friendly mesmers out there, maybe if you realy want to get to the end find a couple and work with them and their portals to get to the end

It’s not just people with disabilitys who cant do the jumping puzzles, the latest diving goggles on the bazzar airship, I was up there for nearly an hour giving people portals up and another mesmer took over from me afterwards.

If you cant find a team to help and your on EU servers, feel free to come to Ruins of Surmia server and send me a tell and well see if we can help.

Sanctum sprint death fall bug

no this was a non stop loop, i had to ALT+TAB out of the game and close it via task manager, this happened as the countdown was about to hit 0, and I died as the next round should be starting.

I dont pvp tho i may well do, so I’ve not heard of the PvP locker, would that enable say my mesmer to use the items even tho bound to my ranger?

And thanks faceless I had’nt thought of the forge, still disapointed with the lack of thought gone into the chests tho.

So we got our 500pt chest today, great idea giving rewards, but i was disapointed after opening it on my medium armor wearing Ranger to find 2 pieces of charater bound, untradeable light PvP armor. I’m hoping the items being soulbound on aquire is a mistake, otherwise they are totaly useless and the only thing I can do with my “reward” is to throw it away.

Sanctum sprint Bug?

Salahn.8256

no it’s there, i get it quite often, I think its only from picking up the shard like power-ups and depends on your position in the race if you’ll get it.
people in front half get defensive skills (fake power-up is one), and those behind get offensive.

After finisihing the sanctum sprint, I pressed 2 (sun sprint skill) instead of 3 (lighting jump one) and launched myself off the top platform to my death, not only was this in frount of everyone else and pretty embarrasing, but my character got stuck in an endless rolling death/loading screen loop.

It seems I hit one of the angled platforms at the bottom and my character rolled while dieing and got stuck in this loop.

To show best, I recorded it with fraps, you can see it below

Country:- UK
ISP:- Virgin Media
Server:- Ruins of Surmia

Since yesterday morning (tue 2nd july) constant disconects, long/stuck at loading screens, enter zones to find no mobs / NPC non responsive.

tracert and resmon showing packet loss. I have contacted my ISPs tech support who have told me (after turning off and on again ;p) thakittens my ethernet cable at fault, they can find no problems.

Now today (9am ish UK time) Ive had 5 disconects in a row just trying to log in ankitten ow unable to even log in on the launcher. Also logging into the forums is taking a lot longer than normal.

EDIT:- that +it’s is being censored on forums

Problem in the UK

Yes me too, disconects, long loading etc all since yesterday morning.

Are you with Virgin Media by any chance?

I’ve run a few tracert’s and found packet loss regualy. I phoned Virgin media last night and was told by the “tech support” thakittens my ethernet cable. Now I’m not an expert but the loss is happening on the same hops every time.

Might be an idea if you are with them to ring their “tech support” (quotes deliberate) or the support for your own ISP

EDIT:- why does the censor edit “that + it’s” ?

(edited by Salahn.8256)

slow loading screens then cant move?

Just FYI it does not happen all of the time but we do have a 100% reproducible case now and are working on a solution. I’ll check in on an ETA when I get a chance.

Try deleting the “Local.dat” located in Documents, under Guild Wars 2.

If not everyone is experiencing this issue, as a technician I can only assume that it’s related to the local settings in some way.

I’m not sure not everyone has this bug. Just not everyone notices it.
It is only noticeable at ranged characters when you use a separate dodge button (not the doubletap to dodge) and dodge into a certain direction (not just pressing the dodge button to dodge backwards).
Everyone of my friends have this bug when I explain it to them, they just didnt notice as they are used to spamming the #1 key on their keyboard.

This exactly, I’ve asked guild members & friends about this also, most people tend to double tap to dodge, in fact (shock…horror…) I even found quite a few who say they never use dodge!!!

But from everyone I’ve asked to test this, they have all said the same, that yes it does cancel auto-attack when dodging using a directional dodge with bound dodge key.

I’ve kinda got used now to pressing 1 after a dodge, but this is not the solution, its treating the symptom and not the cause.

This is something that “shouldn’t have broken” with the patch, but with something as massive as this game, changing one thing can affect other seemingly unrelated things as well. As we’ve seen through other players not having noticed this there is also a good chance it went past testers completly too (whats the bet all the testers double tap?), thats why games (and other apps) have beta tests, humans will always find a way of doing something in a way that hasnt been alowed for or tested for already !

Hopefully the reports that the devs dont know of this are missinformed, as I’m pretty sure they are. This thread has plety of replys and the community managers would have to be pretty blind not to have noticed it

So lets keep our fingers crossed that they find the problem, but not so crossed that we can’t press 1 after a dodge in the mean time ;p

This is the response I got, a complete copy paste. Judge for yourself.
This is from Friday BTW so it a very recent reply, well after this thread started.

Hi (name redacted)

I heard back from the devs. They tell me that this bug has not appeared on the forums — Bugs, PvP, or General, nor on Reddit — and they remind me that they check those daily. So again, I would really like you to please post bug reports on the Bugs forum and we will do our best to review, assess, and fix the issue. I specify suggest detailed and concise reports because sometimes someone gets so upset about an issue that he makes multiple threads or starts bumping other threads with comments related to his report, and that makes it hard to find the real bugs.

But, having said that, this IS a real bug. Using the more detailed info you sent in your latest ticket update, the team was able to verify the bug because they could reproduce it using the steps you provided. I cannot be sure when it will be fixed, but it’s in the bug list (I saw it there and I did check), it is under a dev’s eye, and I have confidence it’ll be resolved soon.

Thanks for the information!

Sincerely yours,

Gaile Gray

hmm great to see a reply, I’ll get a vid up showing the bug in action

LOL so this is great. Now according to my last ticket, the devs that watch the forums for bug posts claim that this bug report was never posted, didn’t exist, nada nil zilch this thread is a figment of our imagination. They claim they have never even seen a post regarding this bug.

Now im just flat out flabbergasted at this point GG Arena Net.

This post has existed for over 10 days, I have personally linked 2 other threads with this bug to this one to keep it the main thread. Their mods even MERGED it, and they claim they never saw a report about it on the forums.

I made this thread 11 days ago, just after the patch was released that caused this bug, before posting I /bug ‘d this as I’m sure many others here have, I too have posted in other later threads linking this one, so it definatly has been reported, and I’m pretty sure this and the other thread do exist ;p

I’ve noticed similar on my new mesmer, her shoes show on hero pannel as being dyed, but the actual shoes them selves dont change. (re-opening hero pannel show shoes as their undyed colour again) The shoes have not been transumted they’re the lvl 10 crafted light ones.

Having an annoying time on Southsun Cove

I’ve been struggling in this area too, I’m new to the game and have tryed a few classes out, so when I entered the zone I was on my level 22 ranger (boosted to 80 by the zone).

It’s great that lower levels and newer players can take part in this with the boost, however tyring to solo anything even a normal ranked mob is leads to death more often then not,

Not complaining, it’s great to be there, but the balance from the lower end of the boost is not great, unlike in PvP where everyone has the same gear, here I’m still in my lvl 18-22 gear with less stats to boost than others.
