[GW2 Installer stops download randomly and for good [Merged]]

I don't think it contains sensitive information.  I just wouldn't trust that someone didn't insert a backdoor.

I copy the entire GW2 directory between computers myself.  xD

 

That's a very fair point, would be nice if ANet could provide us a "seed file" as a temporary solution so the patcher would not have to do that big initial download, it could download only patches after the .dat-file was dumped.

You CAN copy the entire data file between computers (I wouldn't trust just anyone on the internet though).  The patcher doesn't because it doesn't want to download the entire game every time a patch is released.  It only wants to update your dat file with the changes. The patcher downloads many many many individual files and then patches and compresses them into the large dat file.  That's the main reason for slowness.  Has nothing to do with your network speed.

 

Yea, I understand it downloads many individual files and how patchers work that it doesn't not have anything to do with my network speed. It's been 0 KB/sec for four hours now and downloaded only a few megabytes.

 

Thought I could copy the dat file to my Backblaze B2 and share it here through my CDN, but as you mentioned, perhaps it contains some sensitive information and isn't wise to share with others.

I also have issues downloading the game on my laptop. I have updated hosts file and added `-Portal`, but the download is rather slow compared to anything else.

 

Would the Guild War 2's data file be something that could be uploaded and shared with others? Does it contain sensitive information itself? At least it could work as a seed for the download client.

[Necro wells graphic glitch.]

I could easily replicate this graphical issue when the well is cast near the Blackroot Cut's hero point's location in the water. I have the latest graphics drivers, and I'm using AMD RX 7900 XTX.

 No idea I just noticed it today , never had this issue before. I dont think saw any Direct X updates in the patch notes.

That is a good point that there was no mention about it in the patch notes. The same happened to me on Monday fairly often.

I noticed the same, perhaps a DirectX 11-related issue?

[connection to login server lost ... [Merged]]

I also keep constantly getting an in-game popup and an error about being unable to reach the log-in server, everything seems to work as usual, but the error message keeps popping up constantly.

I'd be very happy to hear a solution for getting rid of this error. 👍

For me, it downloaded with good speeds for a five minutes or so, but then it stalled and stopped downloading. Restarting the launcher constantly helped, but it was time-consuming. I'm not using Steam.
