Guild Wars 2

If I had a company that made games, I would most certainly make sure that my support team worked in the weekends… actually I would make sure that they primarily worked weekends since that is where most people game. Now I had to play a lot of D3 and Realm of the Mad God just because I couldn’t play GW2 :P

Reaper: Filled out all my details, so looking forward to hear from the support team. But is seems that either hackers bruteforce crack the passwords (which I really do not hope is possible… a simple “block IP after three wrong attempts” can prevent this), or they actually do more clever hack. I was in the middle og gaming, was thrown out of the game. Got an empty error message box, and then game crashed. After that I could not log in. So maybe they actually found an exploitable bug in the game. Let’s hope not. There are worrying many “hacked” issues, and it seems so silly when a simple authenticator application like we know them from Blizzard games could fix all of this.

Was also hacked today, or perhaps yesterday. Gold seller. Ticket created. Still waiting to get the issue resolved. Cannot log in, due to “unauthorized access detected” message.

A authenticator application like Blizzard uses would remove these problems.
