Guild Wars 2

Easy there Cio – at this point we have no idea what the issue is – could be an internal issue or something more malicious. What would be nice is some recognition from Anet that there is an issue and that they are working on it. It’s been a while since I’ve seen an issue like this in-game – I’ll take that 99.7% uptime… as long as they’re working on the issue.

have you tried updating your graphics card drivers?

if you have, or you do and it doesn’t help, I’d suggest contacting support directly. they’ll be able to help you better.

A DDOS attack has been ongoing, apparently for a couple of days. I don’t know the status as if this morning, but I was booted last night repeatedly.

I hopped into a Wurm event and all of the talk was about making sure you’re running meta spec. All members of each class running the same builds and using the same skills in an event, not a dungeon. This is a very bad trend IMO and so I just left. Guild Wars 2 had lofty goals pre launch, and said all of the right things, but has become a game filled with rigid adherence to clone builds. Play the game the way you want to play it seems a distant memory.
