WvW-guild selection bug is back


Recommended Posts

It's obviously impossible to tell if it is a visual bug, or if the selection doesn´t get saved. However: 

when i logged in today for the first time, my WvW-guild selection has (at least visually) reset. 
Selecting any guild (no matter if it was the previously selected or a different one) does not display the icon next to the guild name, and the button to set your WvW-guild does not change upon selecting a WvW-guild (after confirming your selection, just nothing happens)

EDIT: this most likely visual bug seems to appear when you are set as "offline" (invisible). after changing to online, your selection reappears

I do remember this happening to guildmates in previous WvW betas, do any of the workarounds below work to alleviate the issue?

1. Turn your status from online to offline, logout to desktop, re-login, does the WvW guild panel now display the correct assignee?
2. Try: unchecking all guilds for representation (no guild tag above your character), swap characters, then re-select the same guild for representation, then re-select WvW guild
3. Try: uncheck all guilds for representation, toggle online/offline status, logout, re-login, re-check your guild, then re-select WvW-guild
4. Uncheck represented guild (no guild tag above character), toggle online/offline, log out to desktop, re-login, then use a different character & select your main guild + WvW-guild (keep both guilds aligned). Once done, logout to desktop, re-login, does issue still persist in WvW guild panel?

If issue still present, it's then likely a visual/UI display issue, and not account issue. Hope these helps! 🙏😬

Yes, make sure your status is online.  It's a reproducible bug.

Ok, I need a reality check. I was hoping for more info when they said blog in Dec would be in Jan. lol, was that post the blog? Zen can tell you I don't go for sane but....42?

But again its for 4 AM, so maybe that is the issue. 

Others said it better or were misquoted or assumed to have said: “Sleep – those little slices of death, how I loathe them.”.

I translate it as ADHD or TOO MUCH COFFEE!!! But each to their own I guess.

You mean this post? 

 

I think that's all we are getting for now, an announcement buried in this sub-forum along with some mention on Twitter, etc.  Nothing on the front page or launcher.  I'm expecting lots of "I didn't know and now I can't play with my friends." posts in our future.

another frustrating point: i still have a mail from the beta over a year ago. that was the first, and only! , time they actually did something ingame. The funny thing: EVEN WITH THAT MAIL people managed to miss the guild-selection deadline xD

I´m already preparing my popcorn for all the forum-posts and discord-discussions that will come, although i doubt that i can get enough supply that lasts long enough^^

Thanks for that. I had set my WvW guild several days ago but when I checked it tonight, there was no indication which guild I had selected. Selecting it again didn't have any effect either. So I was coming here to post something on the forum about the bug. Your offline/online EDIT solved the problem for me. As soon as I went from offline to online, I could reselect my WvW guild. Fingers crossed that nothing else happens between now and the start of the beta tomorrow night.

I had my WvW guild selected the whole time as my guild for the beta. This morning the selection was gone. Did I had to select it again before Thursday? Now it says “Pending WvW Guild” 

I have been taking it as pending shows the guild I will be sorted with when sorting happens. So far no issues during these betas. If you haven't unselected your WvW guild since the last one odds are pretty good that you will be fine. And at this point the deadline has passed to have selected your guild in any case.

Ah oh, looks like EU servers this morning took the brunt of the team assignment issue, hope it works before tonight's reset for NA 😬

After doing a scan of posts, observations/notes:

  • Online/Offline/Away player status seems to affect the WvW guild selection panel
  • There might be a 'visual display' issue where panel did not display 'selected' WvW guild
  • Issue seems to be worse if 'represented guild' differs from 'represented WvW guild' in the panel
  • Switching from offline -> online status, then unchecking all represented guilds, and relogging in to re-select guilds seems to work (before WvW guild selection deadline > Thursday night)
  • Switching characters while toggling rep. guilds did not seem to do much, glitch seems account related
  • Prelude to issue appeared mid-week. Did workaround work for everyone above?
  • Any scenarios where you were still wrongly assigned after trying the workarounds above before Thursday night?
