I'll keep this under one topic, but anyone who was playing in NF have you been kicked from the server? Just about five mins ago I was playing in NF and then boom everything stopped and I d/c from the server. Now I can't log into GW at all. It just keeps sitting on the Connecting... window and now I got error window that says "Guild wars was unable to connect to any login server" however it not due to my end, I checked Final Fantasy Online and RO and both I can get into just fine >.> So anyone having trouble with GW?

**Edit**
Nevermind, I got back in. Maybe it just an over flow of people logging in at once >.<;;

Nightfall reminds me of the Animal Kingdom at Disneyworld!

Sweet new portal look.

I'm enjoying the Paragon so far...I might have to make a PvE character when the game launches. :P

Hmm my extra account now has access to the nightfall event but my main one with the pre-release pack on it still doesn't, Same for my friend her account with the pre-release code on it still won't allow her access to the event. Is there a glitch or somthing that isn't allowing those with teh pre-release pack added to not gain access or somthing?

I just DLed a small patch from Anet as I logged in for the first time today. My comupter shut down Guild Wars and began repairing data archive. I think, "okay something glitched". Ran through the repair process and...it starts again.

I'm currently on my thrid "Repairing Data Archive" window. Each time Guild Wars attempts to connect, it shuts down the load process and starts ramping up my hard drive.

Virus and Spyware scans read nil. Other programs on the drive are operational. No need to defrag at this time when checked. Drefragged anyway (WTH?). No go.

Did this "corruption" thing get out? If it cycles again, I gotta delete my DAT file, a lengthy (all day DLing) process for a game with this many updates and patches.

UPDATE: fourth times the charm. Deleting DAT file. Something over here just got seriously messed up Anet. Check your code.

UPDATE2: core DAT DLed and GW can run again. I'll have to DL the rest later (as in I have 4000+ files to go just to load the character); Nightfall info is working so far. I'd still like to know what the heck just happened though...

UPDATE3: I'm noticing 2 other people complaining about glitches. If you're having the same problem I describe above(NOT it repaired, loaded and ran, but repaired, and repaired, and repaired...), I think the only fix is to do what I did. Go to My Computer; click the drive GW is in and choose program files. Follow the tree to GW and open. You should see something called "DAT file". You have to delete that; Nightfall just bitch slapped your Prophecies and Factions info. Restart GW and re-DL the file. NOTE: This is a lengthy process and will take upwards of an hour just to loadinto the game again. To restore the entire file will take a VERY long time with DSL; impossibly long for dial-up users. EX: I started restoring the DAT file @12:30pm EST. at 2:00pm EST, I am now 70% ready to load my character into the game population. Thats at 500k DSL.

CAUTION: This is advice form an non-Anet source. If you don't trust it, don't take it. Submit a support ticket and wait for an NCSoft representative to get to you or hope someone from Anet responds to this issue in-forum with instruction on how to repair the problem.

UPDATE4: GW servers have shifted my priority down and I can no longer DL at full speed (max speed data recieved is 126k/average DL speed is 67k. Ping plotter confirms: this is a bottleneck at Anet). I won't put the server IP down because a mod might decide to delete this post (TMI to other users). I'm East Coast American, NC; backtrack and I'm running from that hub.

loading to Chabek Village from 2:30 to 3:30 EST 73%. So...hows the weather where all of you are?

ok, i can create the PvP elonian characters now, but it's weird, it seems i cannot access the dervish and paragon skills... it only shows the skills i've unlocked for the secondary profession...

can someone enlighten me on this?

EDIT: it's ok now, i just need to change the skills when i press K once i've logged onto the character

Sir Skullcrasher · Sep 22, 2006, 04:46 PM // 16:46

I'm at work and can't play this event! damn it!!

Amity and Truth · Sep 22, 2006, 04:56 PM // 16:56

Great, got disconnected in the middle of a mission and now i'm suffering from a malfunctioning archive -.-

Neo Nugget · Sep 22, 2006, 04:58 PM // 16:58

Thallandor · Sep 22, 2006, 05:36 PM // 17:36

Best preview ever.

UPDATE and bump: 3:45 EST recieved new update from Anet. Client was not prompted to repair data archive at this time.

Brianna · Sep 22, 2006, 08:11 PM // 20:11

I cant access nightfall with my main acccount, the pic is greyed out, but when i log into my secondary it can click the nightfall pic and i can start making chars... so even tho i can still play im quite worried as to why my main cant do it, probably going to mean future problems of some sort. i could only imagine.
