Guild Wars 2

I’ve got the same problem… but as for me it has already been 5 hours since they fixed the european data thing….

I was online when it happen… (the database outage thing) so I ofc got kicked out with dc because of it and it might be why i’m still not able to load into the game? I mean I can login fine but not load in….

Edit:

cmd-> ipconfig /flushdns

after trying this I got it fixed thanks! (didnt see it until after I had posted my comment thats why…)

It’s been a few days since the first time I’ve got this error.

I have the latest dx & driver updates…
Right now the only thing that have worked so far is to uninstall and reinstall gw2 completly & then reinstall latest drivers & direct x runtime. But I don’t really feel like doing that every single day to get this to work.

However as of today this way of trying to fix it dosn’t seem to work anymore.
EDIT: So I finally got it to work again by doing the usual reinstallation of DirectX runtime & reinstalling drivers… however I had to do it 4 more times until it worked…. however this error will come up the next time I turn on my computer the next day…. (after its been shut off for the night)

specs:

Windows 10, 64 bit.
Intel Core i7 (Processor)
AMD Radeon R9 390 (Graphic)
DirectX 12 (have dx9 runtime installed)
32GB RAM

im having the same problem, im at 97 fps but im still currently experiencing lag spikes and connection issues whenever i switch weapons, teleport, go to wvw or in wvw itself….. it’s getting extremly annoying….

and changing from highest to lowest settings dosn’t help anything either…

I had been lvling scribe myself a few months ago but god it was so freakin’ expensive……..
Even tho I put around 100-200 gold on it, I only made it to lvl 42 scribe

I deleted a lvl 80 character in the past many years ago because I was stupid and I honestly regret it a lot, because I had a lego on it + the fact that you lose character age progression even.

It’s probably the only regret I ever had regarding GW2……

Tbh I kinda want to be able to change my display name aswell because when I first made a GW2 acc many years ago I thought you had to write down a name no one else has (this was before I figured out you could have same display name as others)
and also…. because I thought that it wouldn’t been visible….

This display name I put for this account…. I really regret it, I mean my display name isnt even a word or anything… its just some random letters messed up completly.

If I could I would use same display name I used in GW1 or same battle net ID name.

happend to me just recently aswell while in Lion’s Arch running around lol
except that I get a little diffrent error code.

This is a screenshot of my necromancer deep down underwater holding kraitkin.
(Posted this in the screenshot thread earlier tho, but then I saw this thread and decided to post it here too ^-^)

My necromancer with Kraitkin legendary underwater ^-^

Also unless I was just dreaming there is a mastery in HoT that is auto loot so loot will automatically go into your bags.

There is already a “autoloot” system and you can find it under options here in-game.

The “autoloot” in GW2, as it works right now, doesn’t automatically collect your loot; it just collects all of the loot from the corpse/chest automatically (after you press F) instead of making you select each item to pick up.

Yamialexa.5103:

Though it is called autoloot, it’s not exactly that. It just puts the items immediately into the inventory when you press ‘f’ (or whatever your loot button is). The new upcoming autoloot does that automatically, without you pressing any button.

I already know that you have to press F.
I only “showed” that there was already something called autoloot in the game.
And I also think that they should just change it so it actually does what its “named” to do instead of the mastery thing.

I also think that the crafting system is really expensive if you buy the mats instead of gathering them.

Also the amount of “time” it takes to either buy or gathering is a huge difference since buying the mats would get you what you need instantly while gathering them would take hours, days or even weeks depending on amount.

I’ve got a few that kinda fits (I think at least).

- Human Ranger:
Head: Scout Mask
Shoulder: Falconer
Chest: Assassin
Gloves: Leather Gloves
Legs & Boots: Vigil

- Mesmer:
Head: Wraith (one of the “starter” head pieces for necro)
Shoulder, Gloves & Boots: Incarnate
Chest: Pheonix
Legs: Masquerade

- Sylvari Thief:
Head: Phantom Hood
Shoulder, Legs & Chest: Firstborn
Gloves: Nightshade
Boots: Nightmare Court

- Warrior (first at the top in attachments):
Head, Shoulder, Gloves & Legs: Carapace
Chest: Primeval
Boots: Braham

- Warrior (human roman gladiator):
Head: Vigil
Shoulder: Commander
Chest, Gloves, Legs & Boots: Pit Fighter

- Norn Ranger:
Head: Glowing Crimson Mask
Shoulder, Chest, Legs & Boots: Wolf
Gloves: Krytan

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
(The one with carapace has a dye which changes color depending on the environment and if its bright or dark. And the roman gladiator looking human also uses a dye which changes color depending on environment. As for the other characters their look is the same in every environment kinda.)

I have been having this idea for some time now, btw I know about the “Deep Sea Dragon” one in HoT but I always had the idea of a diffrent kind of underwater world boss that would be either Risen, Tentacle or some similar type.

For example a Risen Krait Abomination with some epic necromancy skills or Large monster with electric tentacles with corruption as a passive debuff to players being near them.

Yea, I think everyone that got a 20 scroll for their 1 year birthday was thinking… Wow there is something I really don’t need.

not only for the 1st year, but also the 2nd birthday anniversary gives you another lvl 20 scroll aswell….. at least it did for me

If A-net decided to have a Japanese translation, they’d probably have Japan on their own separate servers or hand the game to a Japanese publisher.

Japanese interests are quite different to european/american interests. For instance, look at the differences between the Chinese client and the European client. They have a VIP system, where you pay a subscription and get exclusive features and, after several months of subscribing, you receive a legendary.

I didn’t even knew there was a chinese client….

CodeHavoc.7926:

I don’t mean to be critical here, but unless you speak Japanese, how does adding a voice pack in the game benefit?

Because some people actually want to have japanese voice pack due to several & diffrent reasons. It would benefit everyone who would like to have it aswell benefit people from japan for example, since there are actually japanese ppl that play gw2 you know….

In my personal opinion of this character nr thing, I don’t see it being a good idea overall because I don’t want people to use same character name as I do, since I wouldn’t feel unique about my character at all.

The point with character names is that they are supposed to be unique.
If character names wern’t unique then everybody could just simply run around with same character name and some people might find it “annoying” & also people would want to have their character names remained only for them.

To counter the problem of whispering, just right click the person you want to whisper. Or select the person in your contact list to whisper.

And if they’re not in the same map or on screen? What if you have multiple people with the same name in your contact list or in your guild? How confusing do you think it will be when you have 2+ people with the same name in chat?

And what about the party menu where you add the name to join or invite a player?

How would you message the correct person in game?

This, I don’t want to have to find someone’s hidden number to send a whisper.

You can still whisper them by using the acc name with numbers instead of the character name.

So now people are inconvenienced by having to find the account name and type it out with the numbers so a small percentage of players can have the same in-game name?

Even if I did say that you can whisper using acc name+nr to contact somebody ingame dosnt mean I dislike or like the idea of having number behind character name.
I just simply gave an answer to how you would message the correct person.

I don’t think its ridicilous when it comes to chat itself but it’s really annoying when you get it during mail even if you only sent like 2-3 mails and poff excessive messaging….

You can still find the core game in other official retailers. Unfortunately, you will have to buy a disc version as I think other retailers only sell this version.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=guild+wars+2

A-net only sell the HoT+Core Game package now, that’s their standard edition.

cdon.com sells deluxe digital downloadable version of gw2 core game aswell.

I see, makes sense.
But it would be amazing if it really was added in the future tho

i’m not talking about the characters. To have japanese or chinese characters is not what this point is about and it’s not needed to have in order to have audio/text translations.

i’m just curious if they will ever add more languages like japanese translation to GW2 in the future.

Will there ever be a japanese audio voice pack or translation for Guild Wars 2?

I was wondering because it would been really awesome if it was implanted to the game.
There was also an unofficial kitten fandub trailer of gw2 which I found on youtube some weeks ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1HJnLPrBMQg

Suggestion – Birthday reward change?
What do you guys think?

I was thinking a bit about this, since we have birthdays in GW2 which gives these lvl 20 scrolls you don’t even need if all your characters are above 20 already….

So I was thinking that maybe they should change the reward that comes in birthdays to have some usefull stuff instead, like the ones in chest of loyalty or at least some other kind of reward that isnt useless to players with high level characters.

Guess I’ll just have to wait then. ^-^

My beta character slot isnt working?
The create character button is just greyed out and when I double click it (it should go to character creation) it dosn’t do anything.

I even tried having 2 character slots free and the create button shows up but when you create it creates on the “normal” slots and not the “Beta” slot.

The preselect of builds for pre 80 characters was not needed and it only caused problems.
It would be much better if they let the creation of builds entirely to players,they
wasted their time here in adding this to the game.
Since they went this way,what they must do asap is to add a function in the UI or a NPC where you can reset your available Hero points.

I couldn’t agree more. They should really add a NPC where you can reset.
