Yes OP sit out like a spoiled little brat that cries because he or she doesn’t get what they want. No you don’t deserve a trophy for finishing dead last get over yourself.

I wrote one unedited sentence to start this topic, not sure how you all of that out of it.
I have not been called a brat in about 50 years – thanks.
I did not vote in the last poll or the one before it.
Hopefully you won whatever it is I finished last in.

I feel at best my vote will be ignored and at worst it will be misappropriated to an option not even listed on the poll that I had no intentions of it going to.

WvW Poll 31 May: Mixed Borderlands (CLOSED)

No vote for me – there was no option to remove DBL from WVW just as there never was a vote to put it in.
All of the available options will limit my playtime.
Not gonna chase down more information a dev makes on reddit, twitter, facebook, or other random site instead on the actual poll/site where people vote.
If you are not going to use your own forums get rid of them.

limit your playtime because you can play on every map at the same time? you can choose not to vote but your vote might be needed to not have dbl for 3 months on end. i don’t see why we can’t have both bls in place and not rotate. that way those that like alpine can k-train there hearts out and those that want desert bl can get lost for hours in it. if dbl happens to be your home bl and you hate it, well take over the enemy alpine bl and make it your new home bl..

Someone will be screaming about it not being fair and you can never win that argument.

Put the DBL in some form of EoTM so that people who want that type of stuff can play it. Leave ABL in WvW for large group fights – everyone wins !!!

I will not play on DBL, so ya playtime limited for that reason as the others will be queue’d up longer. When the Alpines came back so did I. I had uninstalled as soon as I saw the first video of DBL last year.

Only reason I mention reduced playtime for myself is that the poll options are poor – not giving any option to those who do not want the DBL in WvW (like me) or for the person that does not want ABL in WvW.

Issues with game installer.

in Account & Technical Support

Posted by: Zulika Mi Nam.1092

Zulika Mi Nam.1092

Same happened to me with latest patch and a client installer from about 3 weeks ago named Gw2-64.exe
As of the most recent patch the client deleted my old install and started installing all of the game files anew on the desktop.
I went got the client again from my account page. Now it is named Gw2setup-64.exe It gave me the option of where to install – default should be C:/Program Files/Guild Wars 2. It also put the shortcut on the desktop.
You are not going nutz bud, and you did nothing wrong. We just got a poorly designed client. Hopefully this new one got more attention.
You may be able to move the files to keep from re-downloading again, but if that seems like to much of a hassle, I would just uninstall and grab the new one.

Posted by: Zulika Mi Nam.1092

Zulika Mi Nam.1092

I am more than happy to see that WvW is getting some attention. However; I voted no pref as each set of actions listed in the poll make no difference to me whatsoever.

I would take Alpines back and any lag improvements of any or all of those items, as well as any of the changes that recently went in. I have not logged in since I saw the first Desert border video.

Glad to see a poll, but I hope ANET is able to start accepting suggestions to take future polls on and attempt to get feedback before they implement changes. If not we may all be continuing to just still spinning our wheels here.

Crap. I thought I was coming back, but then I got to the part of the patch notes about the time spent on the Desert Borderlands and it killed all the good feelings I had while reading the other WvW updates.
I have not been back here for a while so I did not know about the pending rotations. I will continue to sit out.

Couldn’t find the motivation to log on for reset, binge watched jessica jones on netflix instead. No ragrets.

Uninstalled when the HoT changes were announced.
Started playing single player games.
Keep checking in to see if changes will be reverted.
Also no regrets.

No response at all on this, really…….in the middle of a season….

As if we did not already know, only the dedicated players care about WvW making it ever increasingly harder to give a crap about this game and easier to move on to other options.

@anet: any solutions on queue?

I suggest queuing for EB. The game will eventually crash and kick people out giving you the chance to get in quicker! Of course it will happen to you too…..it just happened to me :-(

So will the PVE skin/achievement junkies come in an jack the queues up for the hardcore WvW guys?

(same logic as the first season) Come to us bronze servers and you won’t have to deal with the achievement hunters caused queues.

I do not server jump for little reasons like that. I have been playing with the same set of people since beta. We have moved servers together before and some have split off. I am a guild of one, ensuring I have the option of following the people I can count on.

I can anticipate most commanders moves because of our history playing together -without TS or chat. If I run into 3 enemies, but see one of my teammates headed our way I can tell by his name whether I should get out if it when it starts going bad, or hold out until he gets there because I know he will join in and we will more than likely have the advantage in a 3 vs 2.

That takes time, the kinda time I am not willing to put in here again.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled PVE invading WvW for reasons of shiny pixels program.

You ppls’ connections and/or pcs must suck, b/c I barely ever have lag or skilllag issues, aside from a 3way clusterfudge inside Stonemist here and there when theres an INSANE amount of ppl in one place. Other than that, no issues. Maybe it’s not the game that is the problem, but for you that’s just the easiest thing to blame it on…

You heard it here guys. Your PCs just officially hit the wall and are “over the hill”. All of them hit the limit at the exact same time too.

Don’t feel bad, my 4930k, 690gtx, Raid0 SSDs, and 64G of ram I put together last month – poof also “over the hill” at the exact same time yours was.

I;m going to buy some intel stock. -and yes T1 here.

We hit queues on our Borderlands tonight and next week we will be in T4. The worst is over for our WvW, rebuilding has begun on SoR.

In the meantime we still have one of the best PvE populations, still hitting overflows daily and still killing Tequatl every day.

What is Tequatl? Is it on a Borderlands or the EB map?

Glad to hear it is not just me. This also occurs for me since last patch. Usually happens when I am in a big fight in WvW -where I am 99% of my time here.

I have no idea what the error message is because I am so busy force quitting the box that will not even send the report without locking up and then force quitting the game to try to get back into the fight hoping not to see a queue.

Well, the ranger is the most controversial class in the game…….The Archer* class is in every RPG as important as the Warrior and the Mage…
Here you are chained to the pet……You are beastmaster first and foremost…. a very bad one at that…..The very design of the game does not allow you to play archer. The closest thing that comes to a ranged class is the rifle kill-shot warrior, but that is a one trick pony and not a viable style at all in the long run……The missing third big pillar of any RPG , THE MEDIUM ARMOR NIMBLE ARCHER is missing and people have every right to be upset…..Conclusion: the closest thing to the archer is the ranger but you are chained to the ill working pet, you cannot really play bows…….

Amen to my fellow Archer Brethen

I’m sick of people complaining about their pet.

If you don’t want a pet-class, you don’t want Ranger. It’s as simple as that.

No, it’s not as simple as that.

When people rolled a Ranger they realized it came with a pet. It wasn’t a surprise. What they discovered was pets don’t work correctly…and Anet has said they are not sure if they can fix it.

If the pets worked as intended, you would get very few, if any, complaints about them.

I want to play an archer like I do in every game. There is no other class that can wield both bows. The pet is just a horrible nuisance I have had to deal with. How pets got tied to “rangers” I have no idea -must be one of those copying WoW things.

I frequently have to take pause for interruptions for work or other things with no option/time to get somewhere safe and with no knowledge of how long the interruption will be.

So I hardly ever party or group as I do not want to be that guy that disappears randomly. I do not mind dieing on my own and starting things over, but I do not want to subject others to my randomness.

Same here, I only have the bone pick because I find it to be the least annoying.

I want permanent tools with no added frills.

If I could buy the latest tools and then trade it to the weapon specialist guy like I did with the pick to make it account bound, but at the same time pick a lesser annoying version that would work too.

Just remember whenever you need to know what is going on. Go to Facebook and look, then Twitter, then Reddit, or hope the people from a server the devs decided to have a fireside chat with post about it on the web.

Whatever you do don’t waste your time by pausing to look at that splash area on the launcher cause that would just be a silly place to put information.

Or you could come to the official forums. Right when the update went live there was a notification at the top of my screen saying exactly what the update did. Plus the launcher is there for important information. Most things do get posted there but “routine maintenance” doesn’t really seem all that important to me. At least that’s probably the thinking of Anet.

When I came here the notification was not there yet. I found out via the 2nd entry on this post what was going on.

Thank you sir! The frustration is what you have stated -having to re-queue.

I was able to find an old post on this by chance as well. While Eternal Battlegrounds, jumping, and puzzle are in the title it does not show up when I do searches on them. By chance someone replied to it shortly after this post and I saw it on the first page & I finally found it again today by searching on loading. -not gonna bug the search system.

I used to get this about 90% of the time when I tried to enter. I did a ton of repair launches, but it did not help. I figured my next course was to reinstall GW2, but I waited until I got some new hard drives to do that.

Since I installed the new drives I have not had the issue reoccur until now -but I have probably not been in more than 5 times since the install. These new drives are my system drive (Samsung 830s in raid0) so even now all I have loaded is a fresh Windows 7, Nvidia drivers, Firefox, and GW2. The only other HW change I have made is going from 460GTXs SLI’d to a 690 about a month after launch.

I have let the screen just stay there until I get booted out for inactivity before -hoping it would load at sometime. I did some searches here on the forums, but I did not find anything. I just stayed away from it or went in when I was about to log anyway before knowing that I most likely would get stuck. But now with a new install I figured it was best to come here for help.

Any ideas? Thanks!
