Anyone else get a download yesterday? - Guild Wars Forums

Tactical-Dillusions · Jul 25, 2005, 07:33 PM // 19:33

I partied up with someone and we both went into prophets path yesterday for a little team hunt.
Upon entering, we both had a small download.

Did anyone else get this? I'm sure someone else must have...we definitely downloaded something.

Does anybody have a clue as to what it could have been? I visit the area frequently so it wasn't some left over file that i had yet to pickup.

The monsters appear the same (in the areas that i have checked anyway) but i don't know about the wreckages that litter the valley out there.

There was an update yesterday, I believe?
[EDIT: I wasn't sure the time/date of an update, just know there was an update because I did have some larger than usual download too. Plus there is a thread about naked people]

Nothing mentioned on the website.

Oh dear, have i started a paranoia thread? Oops, lol.

Carry on....

I saw it, a lil one, but still noticeable with my V34 dailup internet, yesterday afternoon/evening.

No updates since the one we announced on Friday. (And the one that re-clothed the characters.

)

If you had a download of some kind, I can only speculate that you were visiting the area for the first time since it was changed in a previous update and you needed to pull the new assets.

If that was not the case, then honestly, there wasn't anything stealthed in and I have no idea why you might have perceived what seemed to be an update to the mission.

I think it was the update to re cloth the chars as listen on gwonline.net

A small update was made this evening to close an "equipment exploit". Apparently, due to a small glitch, a lot of players' characters were running around naked for a little bit until a new patch fixed the problem.

EDIT: Wow Gaile beat me to it.

Its kinda neat to know that ANet reads customer's threads, unlike Blizzard with WoW. ^_^

Thankyou for your reply Gaile. It is very much appreciated and respected.

Looks like i'm scratching my head too then. Oh well. Carry on enjoying the game.

edit - yes skullcrasher, i understand from that perspective but i was wondering why i never had to download anything before, since i've visited prophets path millions of times since that armour patch.
It's my favourite place in the world.

I will be in the fanclub. Do we get bookmarks, t-shirts and snow-shaker paperweights?

No, but you will get frequent updates

Perhaps try the other Fanclub: Spooky. Rumors of T-shirt and Spooky Timeshare are spreaded.
