Pippilotta · Jun 30, 2012, 06:08 PM // 18:08

I've been getting code 040 for over an hour now (in Belgium)

Duo Maxxwel · Jun 30, 2012, 06:10 PM // 18:10

I have just started to receive Code 040 as well. Virginia, United States reporting in.

Polgara Val · Jun 30, 2012, 06:19 PM // 18:19

Well I cant get in at all now for the last hour, codes vary 007 to 040.

I've received both errors frequently since the festival started. I get booted less in American districts, but it's been largely independent of where my toons are.

if arenanet cant even run gw1 properly, how is gw2 gonna fair? been getting both errors all day long, from an unhappy uk-based player

silk stormwind · Jun 30, 2012, 06:29 PM // 18:29

Yep same here 007/040 ever since the dragon festival started just hope gw2 fairs better when we start in 2 months because if this event is anything to go on then gw2 will have a tough first few months

Same here UK and a constant stream of code 40's, got my reply back from anet/gw and there saying its on my end lol as data packs are not getting through even tho I've proved it with ping plotter that it isn't. They still saying nothings wrong their end

Polgara Val · Jun 30, 2012, 06:41 PM // 18:41

I think the euro servers always have issues, this happened during the birthday event to. As soon as I get in and I recommend this to anyone who is in Europe to go to American Districts.

Another Brit confirming the problem is not "at our end."

cantalus · Jun 30, 2012, 07:24 PM // 19:24

curious anet's version of building customer confidence

multiple 040s

lilDeath · Jun 30, 2012, 08:14 PM // 20:14

Lots of login problems - 004, 007, 040 - for the last 1.5-2 hours.
3 different accounts, in different regions - AM and EU.
From South Africa.

So, the problem is widespread and affecting various different people = ANET's PROBLEM

Fix it!!

Snograt · Jun 30, 2012, 08:27 PM // 20:27

Worst thing is, there''s no reconnect. I have been trying to do Darkrime Delves for the past 4 hours - every time I disconnect, it's back to the character select screen

loopysnoopy · Jun 30, 2012, 08:57 PM // 20:57

The main problem is with the in-flux of players coming back to either finish titles off and such and people trying to make a fast buck while the festival is on.

Problem is that the servers are so poorly maintain that it cant cope with a large in-flux of players this causes a lot of problems. Also with Guild Wars been put into auto mode that doesn't help either as there is no anet/GW employ on the ground to say server guys we have a defcon situation here! fix asap.

Makes me wonder if buying guild wars 2 was the wisest considering how they have left Guild Wars.................

Raven Wing · Jun 30, 2012, 11:11 PM // 23:11

Denmark here, I have had it a few times today aswell.

dunky_g · Jul 01, 2012, 01:28 AM // 01:28

A Brit here with a game rendered completely unplayable due to Err 40 or 7.

this does make you wonder...especially when BOTH games are live...what will the lag or dc's be like then????

Pippilotta · Jul 01, 2012, 07:37 AM // 07:37

I finally got in and moved to an Asia district which doesn't have the 007 (or w/e) problem

They're run on entirely separate servers, if I understand correctly. Whether or not bandwidth/disconnect errors will continue? Only time can tell.

One would hope that the recent decline in server quality (by recent, probably the past few years

) is due to resources being shifted to GW2.
