Lenkah.1674 Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 Hello, A new player here and was having a good time. I was playing with my old computer at the time. But i recently got a new pc and decided to download the client, but i seem to be encountering an issue. As the title says i cant download the game and i don't know what the issue is. I did a little bit of research and see some similar problems, i tried fixing it by doing the add "3.216.240.151 assestcdn.101.arenanetwork.com". didnt work. I also tried the VPN thing, where i would connect then disconnect to make it download again, but the problem is my download speed is so slow that whenever Im doing this. Not really sure what is the issue is and as I said my pc is really new and im also using windows 11. Would appreciate any response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaba.5410 Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 If you have your old PC, just copy the old GW2 folder to the new computer. The game works out of the box like that. Doesn't need to be "installed". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That IP isn't valid - it changes every few days/weeks. It's currently 18.214.120.143 or 50.17.23.247. If you're not 100% sure on modifying the hosts file, search the start menu for cmd, right click command prompt and select run as administrator. Copy the following line, right click the center of the command prompt window to paste it, and press enter to run it: echo.50.17.23.247 assetcdn.101.arenanetworks.com>%windir%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts (this will overwrite your hosts file with the 1 line) After applying the hosts edit, delete Local.dat under %appdata%\Guild Wars 2, then launch GW2 with the options: -log -patchconnections 1 If it gets stuck, let it sit for 5 minutes, then view Gw2.log under %appdata%\Guild Wars 2 for any errors. If the hosts edit doesn't work, the problem is caused by other software, or worst case, your ISP, which will require a VPN.

I am not using any security/AV software on my machine. My speedtest through AT&T is 944 Mbps down/ 792 Mbps up (consistent with AT&T 1GB Fiber) I was really wanting to get back into GW2 but I guess I will not be.

I wonder if it's some failure not in the file itself on the server, but the server's http daemon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaguar.9104 Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 I got the same issue, when it was installed it would not update and I was thinking it was due to not checking regularly for updates, tried everything Support would likely suggest I do and it did not work. Then I uninstalled it and cleaned up any leftover files and downloaded a fresh copy from this site and it stopped at 12% and would not budge, I know the issue was not my end as I had no trouble playing other games that were slightly more intensive resources wise and I could run GW2 anyway but for some reason, the launcher would not install the game. Since then I have not tried to install again! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dasein.5987 Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Still happening you have to keep restarting the client and download a little at a time till it stops again It's like they don't want people to download their game. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Works for me and some people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
