Knight In Shining Armor.17

All this. This is just excessively greedy. This should have shipped with the game at launch. This is a kitten move. A cash grab. They have taken something that was included and unlimited in GW1 and withheld and charged extra for it.

The client starts downloading the latest patch fairly quickly at around 700KB/sec then drops off to 0KB/sec and just stays that way. Sometimes it may start up again and download a couple hundred K, and sometimes I get red text saying "connection error, retrying." I have used GW2 network diagnostic in the gw2 folder and apparently I have getting dropped traffic from my ISP Cox.

I have been on the phone with them 3 times today. There is a tech scheduled to come to my house Saturday. Any help would be appreciated.\ Got this to patch by adding this to the shortcut properties: -origincdn.101.arenanetworks.com The patch completed but I have not yet actually launched the game.

I think the complaint was for the time trial version of the roller beetle race, not the regularly scheduled race itself. I have a beetle myself so don't know for sure. Some people are unable to rent is what I meant to say.

I should not complain since this year has more to do than previous summer festivals in DR, but there doesn't seem to be any compelling reason to complete these events. Dragon bash survival is so boring I had to let the champ frost beast thing kill me, and I got no rewards from surviving wave after wave, since the event continues when the timer counts down even if no monsters are killed at all. Also, betting on moa races is very hands off. We could have just /rock /paper /cut and saved a lot of time. I saw a couple people say in chat that this fest is pointless without a roller beetle mount. Shouldn't the race NPC rent a mount or something? to allow those without to participate? Besides the fest themed food rewards, where is the undeniable reason to attend? What's in it for us the players? A simple story mission to allow some kinda progress like the Christmas tree thing or the Halloween bloody prince thing would have been nice

This just happened to me when the Wyvern reached 2/3 health. I also sent in bug report.

I've always known him as Steve for years. Strangely I can't remember how it got started but yes I tell people he's Steve because that was how he was introduced to me.
