[Bug] Guild Wars 2 store page not working when tracking prevention is activated in Microsoft Edge


Recommended Posts

As the title states the store doesn't work if you have Microsoft Edge's "Tracking prevention" activated in the browser. 

 

I had to whitelist "https://buy.guildwars2.com" just to be able to get to the store. I think this is quite ridiculous since I have had no problem whatsoever with this tracker prevention on any other store.

If you are having this issue yourself in either Microsoft Edges browser or any other browser since I saw another forum post about Firefox also having this issue with their tracking blocker (Don't know the name and haven't tested it myself).

I had the same with Firefox and it's tracking prevention. Seems that the store uses some cookies or trackers that break the loading of the site if they're blocked. I had to temporarily toggle tracking protection off in order to purchase EoD.

 

As you mentioned most stores don't do this and you can block tracking without any issues. When websites are deliberately designed to break when tracking is enabled I find it extremely obnoxious and am disappointed that Guild Wars 2 has a store designed in this way.
