I haven’t logged in since this most recent patch went out. I’m now getting this error on the loading screen every time I try to play. I never get past the loading screen.
I’ve also never had this issue until today. I have performed all of the suggestions (checking ports, firewall/antivirus, etc) given earlier in this thread by the ArenaNet fellows with no joy.
Thanks for looking into this, ANet =P
EDIT: Annnnd…it fixed itself. For now. Will update if it returns.
