Cause is LavasoftTcpService.dll.
You need to remove that.

I’ve pretty much tried everything people have wrote about getting rid of the LavasoftTcpService, but I can’t somehow get rid of it…. I can’t seem to find which service it is in order to stop it from running so I can actually delete the two files I need to delete.

yep, HoT fixed everything. The story is gr8, bosses are hardish and fun, there’s a metroidvania feel to the maps, and best of all, I can always go back and relax in non HoT content when I’m burned out :p

Marioos.2835:

I hate the layer design of the maps. It is extremly unclear especially in zones when you have 4 !!!!! layers of map. You don’t get to actually see at which level of a map a hero point is, for example. Just a random “123423578612571237612 away”. Who designed this crap?

it tells you above or below, yknow ;p

Avlaen.7241:

AWful map design coupled with needing masteries to navigate it. which also makes group play awful. oh i dont have bouncing mushrooms yet and you do welp i guess ill get left behind.

Or falling to your death to try and follow someone.

The maps awful for group play, yet everything is tuned for it its almost impossible to explore solo.
.

actually I’ve done tons of exploring in the new areas solo, while every once in awhile coming across other solos… it’s doable and pretty fun. I almost soloed a champ that disappeared when daytime came tho :p

naw, u gotta post a rev with full elite spec :p since yknow, 400 hero points

I just tried this : https://help.guildwars2.com/entries/97256558 which was posted by a dev. Hopefully it can help you

Mmm I don’t really know myself. after about 2 patches ago, the client just keeps crashing for me, but the update progress holds, so whenever this problem pops, I just get new -assetsrv numbers and it seems to work for awhile. So sorry, I can’t diagnose your problem because all I did was bandage it anyways :p

have you tried the good ole create shortcut, properties, and editing the target after exe" to -assetsrv 174.35.71.9:80 ?

same error. also when it was sort of working earlier, the speed was super low 0.o might be server issue though ,since I also had problems the last update getting it to update properly

yea obviously it’s only in my shortcut <.<

same. crashes at some point telling me I’m missing something in my memory.

tried repairing, took 3 tries to repair successfully, repaired version still failed, tried to create the shortcut and add that thing at the end, failed with that, there never was and isn’t a adaware thing on my pc or it’s hidden so well I can’t find it, etc.

dungeon is still zerk since stacking hasn’t changed. Some bosses they changed to be anti-stack though. Zerk necro is pretty cool and self sufficient, but similar to the ranger, as a self sufficient class, necro damage in parties is still super crap. Not sure about sPvP state, but necros are still cool for WvW. minions are still fubared though

I’m also having lag issues in GW2 and have similar concerns as in the OP. If someone can answer his/her question, I’d like to request them to also take a look at my tracert report.

Overall the community in GW has always been very nice, and at times players will take the time to answer your questions and even help you on a quest. And if you look hard enough, you’ll find more friendly players to do dungeons and stuff with then there are elitist jerks who wouldn’t give you the time of day if you didn’t have a meta build.

Edited for typos.

here’s the thing… you’d assume “zerker only ap+ only” are elitist…. but you wouldn’t imagine elitists that take joy in making fun of everything you do in a friendly sounding group name that seemed like they just wanted to relax and have fun… Went in expecting fun, and was mocked for 30 minutes straight. Thought at first it was a communication issue because I know there are sometimes misunderstanding of intent and I often give people the benefit of the doubt…. so when they actually turn out to be complete kittens, it’s often too late and the damage’s been done…

yea thanks, just feeling really down atm.

but the times you run into elitist kittens can really take all the fun out of the game as well as all the energy out of you….

I miss being in a group and feeling like I was working with people and coming together to be stronger. GW2 I usually feel like I am DPSing next to people. As one person put it in defense of the system, everyone is responsible for themselves. To me everyone being responsible for themselves means you don’t have a team where you work together.

I don’t feel that way at all. Just because we don’t have predefined roles doesn’t mean there’s no teamwork. Although I have to say that DPS is a BIT too powerful in PvE in this game, thus making teamwork sometimes not as important (therefore people either don’t learn how to teamwork properly, or only learn enough teamwork to get by), I feel there’s actually a real deep level of teamplay available in this game. The problem is that the payoff is actually not too great and it’s easier to simply build dps and abuse stacking mechanisms.

I really agree with this post 100%.

GW2 is an absolutely gorgeous breathtaking game, but it’s relatively hard to take in when you’re always zoomed out on your character while looking at slightly downward angle to constantly check for monster agro.

1st person view would really make the simple experience of running around the map 1000% more enjoyable.
