judge.8754 Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 What worked for me was renaming: C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Guild Wars 2 and C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Temp\gw2cache- basicly it removes and rebuilds old cache and settings.

Krede.3507 Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 Only music, and no graphics for me too. I have tried the suggested fixes, but it still doesn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gwlightner.7034 Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 I'm having the same issue. After the update, loading the game locks my computer. I can't even close the client using Task window. Only thing that gets me back up is shutting down the computer and restarting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faetos.2035 Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 I tried turning off Game mode and still get the stuck only reboot or log off gets my PC back. Does anyone know a way to edit a file or change settings to get out of full window mode? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tungsten Monarch.6058 Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 Game will not load or start since update. Game could launch before update just fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcazzar.5394 Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 One more to submit their name to the roll of the damned. I managed to log in just after the update, then logged off to deal with something and when I tried to return, I was having the same issues as those mentioned above.

Meaning: Turn game mode off, start the game (it will freeze again), Ctrl+Shift+Esc, use keyboard to close game from task manager, open the game again. Sucess!

Falan.1839 Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 (edited) Patch completely froze the charscreen and crashed the game twice already, very good change. Yeah, I can't log in at all, the .exe crashed each time I enter the character select screen. Edited November 9, 2021 by Falan.1839 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinmir.6504 Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 I'm having the same problem, can't get in since update. Keep getting the "Serious Error" message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deatine.2498 Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 (edited) Same issue, I hear the music, but game is invisible. Deactivating Windows 10 Game Mode worked for me, thanks for the tip. Though I would prefer to keep it on. Edited November 9, 2021 by deatine.2498 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malevol Ence.4891 Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 GW2 not starting after update. Win 8.1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James.3982 Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 Same issue: Logged in fine, got into a map. Then realized I have dx11 and arcdps on. Turned off dx11, exit game, deleted the 2 arcdps files. Now starting gw2: Music plays and nothing else happens. The game monitor is also "frozen" - as in Gw2 is blocking the use of mouse on my main monitor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prajeeth Senan.8475 Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 The game loads and the windows 10 home screen freezes. alt + ctrl + delete to access task manager to force close the application does not work. The game client is stuck at loading enternally. Forcing to force restart the computer. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lionlady.1560 Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 same issue but if you press ctrl shift escape use arrows to go down to guild wars 2 then click delete on keyboard that seems to work so don't have to keep restarting pc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Errerprone.7035 Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 (edited) Guys! This happens to me periodically (every few months) -- the solution I've used (including today) is to create a shortcut to the GW2 launcher, and append "/clientport 80" under the shortcut's target directory. To do that, you can right-click the GW2 launcher icon --> select "Create Shortcut". (I typically rename that to GW2 Port 80 and drag that to my desktop) Right-click the shortcut and select --> Properties. Under the Shortcut tab Target field, you'll see your local directory path. Append /clientport 80 (note the forward slash) so it reads: "[Directory]\Gw2.64.exe" /clientport 80 There's also a wiki article about command-line arguments, if you'd like to read further: https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Command_line_arguments I couldn't tell you exactly why it works, what issue it solves, or even where I originally came across the solution! But hopefully it might help someone get back in. Good luck! Edited November 9, 2021 by Errerprone.7035 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boneheart.3561 Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 Unbelievable. I finally went ahead and launched the game a forth time, like I've seen others comment, and I've got visuals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
