Finished, but it was insanely hard. I like it!
This issue has been reported for weeks now and still no official response on a timeline to repair.
As others have pointed out, we did acknowledge the issue in a different thread and have been working to resolve it for several weeks now. I’ve also been posting in other threads on Reddit, but I can’t be everywhere all the time, try as I might.
The issue was fixed in this morning’s patch. Let us know if you encounter any issues. The turrets and anvil should all be interactive now, and the story step should no longer be blocked from completion.
Thanks much.
NPCs are still inactive.
Yikes! Thomas, you did make it, right?
Haha with 3 hours left on sunday!
HAH LOL! Here I am sitting at Oslo Gardermoen, waiting for a plane that never arrives Waited for 20 hours now. I hope that I will make it there. Well, at least I shall have a fun time with the beta.

My feedback and responses to the OP’s questions:
-I appreciate that you’ve made a video because it’s easy for you to communicate, but I honestly think it would’ve been better just to write your feelings. Your video is quite long which unfortunately means most people won’t have the time to listen to it. Hence I helped you out and wrote a quick summary of everything. It’s also far easier for players and devs to refer back to your opinions if it’s in text. I can assure you that most people will be able to read the same information you read out, but in less time. That being said, it was certainly fresh and different to listen to a video, so thank you for that.
Gems: I already wrote my response to this problem in the thread I linked. Like I said there, I think that if this was a profitable move for A-net, it would’ve already happened.
Story mode: There have always been bugs- unfortunately it’s just a fact of the game. However, there are actually very few bugs in the story that affect absolutely everybody every time they enter an instance. No doubt that these bugs upset people- it’s frustrating that you can’t do something you were expecting to be able to do without a hitch.
In all the time I’ve been playing (multiple characters, loads and loads of story instances), I’ve only ever had one story instance bug myself which wouldn’t budge after 3 repeats of the problem instance. I just left it for a few weeks and came back to it and was able to continue it, no problem.
The thing is, people who leave the game simply because they can’t do a story mission probably would’ve left the game once they had completed the whole story anyway. If there was nothing else they felt inclined to do (other than story), then there wasn’t anything else keeping them around.
A checkpoint system would be neat for longer instances. However, there are very few instances that are so long to warrant such a thing. The story is already separated up into small portions. If there was a bug or you had to log off, it wouldn’t be the end of the world to restart it.
Monthlies: They were removed, yes. The AP limit from monthlies and dailies were merged together, so now you can get a maximum of 15,000 AP from them both. From what I heard, there were a couple of reasons why they did it. One reason was to stop AP farmers from feeling like they had to do absolutely everything to stay on top. The other reason was that monthlies weren’t challenging, they were just grind. It took people away from interesting content and led them towards mindless stuff.
There is a way to get your dailies in the top right corner again. You click the little eye symbol on the top right of each of the daily achievements (found in the hero panel). They stopped being default in the top right because it was getting ridiculously cluttered. Now players can choose if they want it up there or not, which is far better than it was.
The Forum: The bug section of the forum summarises what you asked for pretty well. I think it would also be a waste of developers time if they had to maintain a list of all the bugs and what they did and how far they were into repairing it. The problem with the forum is that players can be very bad at titling threads to be clear and concise. The other problem is that the search function of the forum is broken, meaning players can’t easily search if there has been a thread made about their current issue.
Unfortunately, A-net has no way of fixing the search bar on the forum. They hired contractors to make the website, since then it broke, and now they can’t repair it themselves. I’m not sure how good redditors are at updating the GW2 subreddits about bugs, but it might be worth discussing things there.
The forums aren’t really there to notify devs about in-game bugs- it’s to share the information with other players. If you want to report a bug to the devs, do it in-game under support. It’s far more useful for them, because then they can access the game’s log to see what could’ve triggered the bug and your exact scenario/circumstances.
Thanks!
Oh yes! This is good
I am very disappointed that this bug was not fixed during the latest patch.
Totally agree with this, it’s taken them WAAAY too long to fix this.
Please understand, the devs have a lot to do. They can not work 24/7 to make sure that the issue is fixed the same day as it is reported, it takes time to fix bugs.
Where is the ‘Colin Hype Train’ option?

I will be there! I am sooooooooo excited
So I have a small suggestion to in-game purchases.
Suggestion:
Make it possible to buy a free amount of gems, with your Paypal, Paysafe or Credit card.
Why:
Because, if you have less than 10 EUR on your Paysafecard, or you want to pay a big amount of gems. It will be much more easier, to just write the amount you want to pay, and then receive gems for that specific amount. Also because of the different currencies for example: I have buyed a 100 NOK paysafecard, (12 EUR) but the closest limit is 10 EUR. (90 NOK) That means that I have 10 NOK left, that I can not use on anything. So it would have been better to just write in your free amount. And ArenaNet does not loose money on it!
The only negative point I see here, is that it might be a technical question.
Please respect my suggestion, if you want to comment this case.
Thank You!
