Guild Wars 2

Sahriah.3792:

Non-US players were missing out on a cutscene.

US players are going to be losing houses, having people in their family die, and their cities wrecked. Estimated 100 billion in damage from some people they were speculating on the news tonight.

There is a difference between a hurricane destroying your homeland versus having an off-houred event that could be watched on youtube. Seriously.

I think you completed missed my entire point. I was comparing the reaction of Americans to other people missing out on an event, to the reaction of themselves when they are the ones missing out on an event.

I in no way said anything about the hurricane or loss of property/life. I was simply saying it was amusing that when the americans are the ones missing out they want Anet to extend the event, but when other nations are missing out, its ‘oh well to bad’

This might be true, but everyone does it, no matter what side. After stumbling on this thread, what I find interesting is that people are concerned about getting an in-game achievement (that they can probably get next year anyway) rather than be concerned about how they’re going to cook their food or take a shower without electricity.

Personally, if I was in this situation, if a long term power outage was a concern, I’d be making preparations to keep myself safe, clean and fed, rather than worry about Guild Wars 2 Halloween events.

I’ve got SP1 and since I bought the game a few days ago I’ve been able to play fine, but today for some reason, I get this stupid disconnect with this error about every 20 minutes like clockwork. It’s really annoying.
