Guild Wars 2

There have been a LOT of problems in GW2 that have remained broken for over a year. For example, my Trading Post quite frequently doesn’t load, requiring me to manually kill processes and delete folders in order to “fix” things.

Gamers on Mac and Linux are growing in number, and major game companies can no longer ignore them or treat them like second-class citizens.

I love GW2. I just hope that ArenaNet gets their act together.

Alright, I’ve tested it about five times now. Each time I quit with CMD-Q, it gets the spins when I restart the game.

If I use CMD-Tab to switch out of the game, then use CMD-Tab to switch back, this seems to fix the issue. This has worked 100% of the times I have tried it.

Perhaps the issue has to do with application focus being lost when the launcher closes and the game opens? If the GUI focus goes to something else before the game loads, that might cause something like this. CMD-Tabbing out and back in forces the system to focus back on the game.

I hope this information is helpful.

I have a 2012 MacBook Air.

I’m getting this problem as well. I tried logging out and back in, which didn’t work reliably. I tried restarting the game altogether, which didn’t work reliably. I tried disabling the trackpad when other input devices are present, which didn’t work reliably.

CMD-Tab seems to have worked the first time I tried it, but I haven’t tested it enough times to ensure that it works reliably. I will update you all as soon as I run more tests.
