If it's a server problem, you should simply be able to launch the game with either:-assetsrv 54.84.216.160-assetsrv 52.202.5.88(you can exit and relaunch after it downloads a few files, since using this will be slower) If that's still stuck, delete Local.dat (under %appdata%/Guild Wars 2/ and/or Documents/Guild Wars 2/) and all gw2cache folders (under %temp%), then use the above option again. If that's still stuck, something is interfering with your connection (a software or ISP problem). (see this post if you want to test this file in your browser - you have the same problem) i wanted to come on here and thank you so much for -assetsrv 54.84.216.160 it worked :) the speed was 3-5mb but worth it lol
