UPDATE!!!:I have fixed it!For future reference, it's very simple; here's how(it was 1 of 2 things):If you're on Windows 10 go to Control Panel>Network and Internet>Network and Sharing Center. On the left-hand side, click "Change adapter settings". This will open a new window of various connections. Right click the connection you are using and click on Properties, you'll be under the Networking tab in the next box that opens. UNCHECK QoS Packet Scheduler and make sure IPv6 is checked. You're done. For good measure, make sure you are using the Google DNS addresses. Before I begin!!! Here is my log I got from using the -log command line The issue I am having is described as such: When downloading the game, I got just passed "Playable" before it started giving me issues. The specific issue is complicated. When I open the launcher it will begin downloading. It will download a few files indicated by the "FILES REMAINING" indicator, and then it will stop. It SAYS it is still downloading files, indicated by the "DOWNLOADING" indicator. Yet, it never finishes even if I let it run for hours. In fact when I do let it run for hours, my computer will freeze OR the "FILES REMAINING" will totally disappear, all the while I am still at 0% downloaded. Now, before, it was not messing up in this way. It seems the longer I have tried to force it to download, the more glitchy it has become. The only way I can get it to actually download files properly is by opening and closing the launcher, which forces it to download 3-4 files and then hang again for eternity. Here are things I have attempted to remedy the issue: Deleting ALL files associated with guild wars 2 INCLUDING: The cache files hidden in %temp%, the files hidden in%appdata%, the files in My Documents, the main game files, and the downloaded launcher Completely redownloading the game from SCRATCH after the above^ steps Allowing all the ports through my router Using various, proper IPs with the -assetsrv command line Allowing ALL ports by putting my router in DMZ Mode Putting the IPs for the assetsrv in my host file in system32 Running as administrator Running the repair tool multiple times Using a VPN Changing language Starting the game and letting it stream all the files while I play (it streamed none as far as I am aware) Changing the stream type in-game in the options to Max Changing my DNS Flushing my DNS Allowing the app through my Firewall Disabling FirewallIf I think of any more, I will add them.Some help with this would be amazing. Downloading on another computer isn't on the table. I really would like to play again :) I know this is most likely on my end.
I advize everyone to refrain from using Google DNS. Also, if this somehow indeed helps with the download of the game, I recommend you re-check the QoS Packet Scheduler once you are done with the download. This is actually terrible advice on both counts. I've seen official tech support from ArenaNet tell people to use Google DNS.Also if you do any research on it, QoS Pack Scheduler is something anyone with minor Networking knowledge will tell you to turn off with every installation of Windows. It's a horrible feature.
