My wife’s gw2 has a similar problem, except hers is missing POI, Vistas and the entire map/world completion dialog. Everything is checked in the little eyeball on the map. Please fix this bug asap, she’s getting 0% map completion although she’s done a number of missions.

Thanks Nageth worked great! Thank You, everyone else, for your replies. It took all of 9 min to copy that file over. I was tempted to alias it to the windows file; but I’d rather not risk another reinstall on windows (would be nice to know if this works to save the extra 20G of HD space). This info really needs to get its own forum sticky. Also wanted to tell whoever might read this, that the game seems to work well on a 2011 iMac 27" if you cut the resolution a bit you can max your settings out and get 60fps. Most of the native mac resolutions are higher than the mainstream windows resolutions; I’ve found games often run faster at mainstream windows resolutions. I also wanted to note that the installer hung, tho worked on restart, and the game itself was a bit weird after the install. It seems after an os reboot the issues I was having went away (like the mouse scroll not working, or the window/minizing options closing the game). I’ve got a feeling the wrapper in which it runs doesn’t interact well with OS X until a restart. If you’ve used a mac before many filesystem or settings changes ripple through the entire operating system in real time w/out the need to refresh anything (rarely). I suspect this is the issue after the initial install (the OS isn’t aware of some settings).

Greetings, I just purchased guild wars 2 planning to use the mac beta client. I’ve watched numerous videos on youtube espousing the greatness of guild wars 2, it’s gameplay, community and the responsiveness of its developers; everything sounds great! I live in Florida and the power goes out VERY frequently, I doubt I’ll be able to finish the installer download before this occurs. At the current .5-2MB/sec pace it looks as if it will take a couple of days to fully install (really?, my connection speed is very good, closer to 12). I can install gw2 into bootcamp/win 8. I’d like to know which files if ANY I can move to my mac to increase the installer speed, and in which path I would need to create/place them in order to satisfy the installer? I’ve noticed a lot of people complaining in the forums about the mac client. Transparency, an operational forum search (your’s appears to be broken in my safari 7.0.6/os x 10.9.4), updated client status information, and the use of additional forum stickies would really help to keep your customer base satisfied and free you up from the need to respond to random, repeated, support requests from the community. Please contact me as soon as possible about the file copy issue, I’m dying to start playing! TY in advance =)
