Guild Wars 2

I read the update notes, but I can’t remember the name of the event line that leads to this. Was this fixed in the latest update?

draeath.8536:

Those are underworld portals. Intentional sound effect (and it’s awesome). They make that sound when they spawn, and a similar one when a player kills one. They open up all over the swamp, and you can hear them from a fair distance away.

Yes but must they be so ear piercingly loud? The ambient noises shouldn’t drown out everything else. Since I don’t see the portals while running around the monestary, why do I feel like a spaceship is about to land on my head?

I have all the issues listed in OP. I posted a detailed list in the Game Bugs forum but it was moved to the technical support forum for whatever reason. Mods must not understand what bugs are.

Max Lexandre.6279:

Sometimes I hear “SpaceShips Landing”, for some mad reason I didn’t recorded it yet, but I will if I hear it again.

I hear this in the swamp area of Queensdale and also around the monestary. I feel like I’m being chased by aliens, avoiding abduction.

I realize the issues discussed here will be low on the priority list since only a small percentage of users utilize these features, but I wanted to collect anomalies folks are seeing with multi-monitor setups. Things are a bit better since beta, but some issues do still exist.

Here is my setup and a list of what I’m experiencing:
5760×1080 (3×1 monitors, 16:9, Fullscreen)
GPU: nVidia 690 GTX (Latest Drivers from nVidia.com)
Windows 7 x64

Issue 1:
In the character select screen, the character models are stretched and disproportional, displaying only on the center monitor.

Severity: Low
Workaround: None

Issue 2:
When creating a new character, the character model appears between the left-most monitor and the center monitor, causing the bezel to split the model into two. This makes it extremely difficult to customize characters.

Severity: Low
Workaround: Revert to single-monitor (1920×1080 resolution) before creating a character, then back to triple monitor (5760×1080 resolution) once in-game.

Issue 3:
In cutscenes, character models are split between bezels. The character that appears on the left side during a cutscene is split between the bezel of the left-most monitor and the center monitor, and the character on the right is split between the bezel of the right-most monitor and the center monitor.

Severity: Low
Workaround: None

Issue 4:
UI elements cannot be moved to the center screen. For example, if you click and drag on the chat box in the lower left corner of the left-most monitor, outlined boxes appear in the center screen indicating these are areas where the chat box can be placed. However, the user in unable to do so.

Severity: Low
Workaround: None

Feel free to add your observations.

Yep, I was on Pakonka – my Norn Warrior. It was fun getting there, but totally disappointed with the end result. Here’s hoping they fix it and then maybe we can have another go at it!

Spent about an hour fighting through the Fire Temple solving all of its riddles. We get to the Champion mob, it glitches out and clips into the ceiling. We pull it back down, kill it, and lo and behold, the chest can’t be looted.

We wasted an hour on this with no reward. Please fix it.
