Guild Wars 2

This is more than just a hiccup now really, isn't it?

I'm waiting on a crashed email validation server, a crashed patching server, and an authentication server that doesn't work.

I think Arenanet HQ has had a powercut or something.
 
Whilst we are waiting I might as well do a bit of reading around. Has anyone got a link for a good sample builds site - especially engineers?

I know it's boring waiting, but really??? Hacked??

The servers have been hammered, as it's a massive launch and they haven't coped so they're trying to fix multiple issues with connectivity & stability which they've been up front about and you think they've been hacked?

Jeez. :rolleyes:

I know it's launch day and everything, but still a bit surprised tbh, after the 23 million stress tests they ran beforehand.

I'm a little annoyed they purposefully decided to bundle in email verification at the same time as first log-in... despite doing 23 million stress tests and pre-launch events. Why didn't they send out a mass email to get that step done beforehand? Now it's like we have to wait for 2 crippled servers to sort themselves out. That's just terrible planning, inexcusably bad planning. "Let's get everyone to email verify at the same time as the entire GW2 pre-order playerbase are trying to login to the game". Wow. Just reeks of the cool self-assured arrogance Arenanet have displayed throughout.

Well I'll think you'll find the majority of us verified our emails way before today.

Your fault really.
 
Depends on how many people tired to log on during the STs. Far fewer than now, I guess.

IIRC GW1 used a 'single' portal for logins and if it had issues the problems were generally world wide. This might be the issue here. Our servers are local to us but everybody trying to play GW2 is trying to get to those servers through the same portal.

(I think. I stand to be corrected.)
