Hate this overflow system, it's horrible.

 

[Hawkian]

Tried to whisper you but I've accidentally typed in Hawkian The Blade instead of Hawkian the Blade. Now it doesn't accept my whisper and it auto corrects if I want to remove the capital T. What do I do .....

that... really shouldn't matter. Also the capital T is correct (not that you care, but my character is technically named "The Blade, member of the Hawkian order"

Hate this overflow system, it's horrible.

It's just bugging out. It worked expertly during one of the betas.

 

[Laxan]

Fiona Apple, Human Ranger, reporting for duty on Gandara.

 

[Orcastar]

I knew it was too much to ask for to be able to actually play an MMO at launch (even if it's not technically a launch yet...). Keep getting error code 42:0:9001:3927 when I try to log in.

 

[Pancakes]

Played for about 2 hours tonight. Game is really fun, can't wait to play more in the morning.

Also, I got "Pancakes" fuck yea!

Is it bugging out? I just figured it was the launch load. I mostly am getting it sick of it ripping my party apart anytime we do a story quest for someone, because of it swapping into an instance.

Lol I do care, why not
It doesn't seem to show my whisper though, I guess it's just overloaded.

 

[Sethos]

Took a long time to get past the login, can't make a character because I can't get a name, game CTD and now I can't log in again.

Why do I always bother with these broken MMO launches, if I could just be patient and wait.

 

[Styles]

Download stopped at 87% zzzzzz

Resumed, phew.

 

[shintoki]

So where is this spreadsheet I have to get on?

Is it the Gaf Guild or a google doc?

 

[F!ReW!Re]

Well just woke up, signed up for the EU GAF Guild, now to log in to the game

 

[Hawkian]

Deeefinitely bugging.

If you're in a party right now, it can seemingly prevent you from leaving certain zones at all (network error). If you want to group up, leave your party and get in the same zone (or overflow) then group.

Seriously, I'm betting they fix it by this time tomorrow at the latest.

edit: Sorry just noticed you mentioned story quests. It really should be working for that since it's instancing all of you. Bugbugbugbug.

Yeah, I can't believe I actually got my Charr Warrior name of Charcoal, figured it would be taken. Then again I think man of us got in at the exact moment they opened up because we were just talking and clicking for 20 minutes lol

 

[One Foul Note]

Just wanted to thank Shadow Kayos and the rest of the dudes running the Gaf Guild. I mentioned this a while back, but I am off to London today so I had a fairly short time slot to play and was a little worried that getting into the guild might have been a bit of a nightmare. But it all went super smooth and I was in the guild in seconds after the whisper was sent. Cheers.

If anyone on the Gandara severs is ever in the Charr lands and up for a party, hook me up at Mattimeo.7486. I'm always up for some local wildlife slaughter.

 

[XEROWUN]

oh... none of my names work... =(

 

[inky]

The only "common" word name I got was Siren, which was the one I used for my Sylvari Elementalist durng the BWE anyways. Still salty about a couple of other names.

Good grief, I haven't even played the game proper, I have just been making my characters. I just want to take it easy and enjoy the ride, no rush.

 

[Eaten By A Grue]

Oh Gods I was a huge original Guild Wars player and playing a hour of this game and I feel overwhelmed. So much going on in the world.

 

[Nyx]

Just woke up, can't log in, why did I ever think it would be no problem to play on a MMO launchday.

You had to hit Login 100x or more before 9PM PST for it to work.

 

[Negaiido]

Apparently guild chat is bugged as well, it says I'm not in a guild chat even though I am.

 

[Sethos]

Man, it annoys me to no end the whole name business. What a clusterfuck.

 

[Alex]

One of the Asura portals broke and stranded a bunch of people, this sucks :lol

Huh, it works if you drop group, what the hell.

 

[Orenhy]

is the gafguild good for europlayers too or should i seek companionship someplace else that lives in closer timezones?

 

[ChackanKun]

Got lucky at the third time lol

 

[Anno]

Really happy with how launch turned out. Got the name I wanted and the server was rock solid after the first 30 minutes. Sucks that some people are having issues.

 

[Mothman91]

How do I get jute scraps for tailoring? Haven't found any yet....

 

[Shanlei91]

Tried PM'ing you Hawkian but didn't hear back so not sure if you got it.

Could I get an invite? #152 on the spreadsheet, Kanik.5471

 

[Styles]

Which server do I join?

 

[Anno]

I found them either salvaging items or killing humanoid types of enemies. The bandits in the human starting area should have them.

 

[alphaNoid]

Just got in and it says Stormbluff Isle is FULL??? wtf ... do they ever reopen these goddamn servers or is that it? No more users on that system?

Wow already?

 

[Sethos]

Is it possible to request a refund if you've bought it from the GW2 site during this headstart? Seeing as you aren't playing the released product yet per say.

 

[Dynoro]

Got in first time and created one character but it black-screened after the story and now haven't been able to login for 30 minutes - think I'm giving up for now

 

[alternade]

TO ANYONE PLAYING AN ELEMENTALIST:

How do have your keys mapped out? Im finding it incredibly hard to switch from movement to 1-0 skills and f1-f4 skills. You have to constantly stop your character to switch. You almost need 3 hands.

 

[alphaNoid]

Wow already?

If you sort by Amerias, like over HALF of all servers are locked out Full. I'm fucking FURIOUS pissed if I cannot even get onto the goddamn server I want on a 3 day head start .... like this has me raging inside where I'm going to have a burning hatred for ArenaNet for a long time if I can't get on the server I want.

Also, if I choose another server can I later change to Stormbluff Isle if its open? If I dont care about character transfer can I still choose a new home world?

 

[Osaka]

I fucking love it when games blame my internet connection instead of them having problems.

Holy shit. Relax. I recall almost every MMO ever having lower population caps on their servers initially. Only to open up later.

wow dude, calm down. welcome to the crappy life of MMO launches.

 

[Styles]

So Stormbluff Isle is where we're supposed to join?

Okay looks like it is. Sorry for not noticing it in the banner in the other thread, lol.

 

[GoldenChicken]

They said they'll increase the server limit eventually. I think they just want people to spread out initially.

 

[CaptainRizla]

Cant log on. Getting either no event running or firewall messages.

Razer Naga. You can map all of those to mouse that way.

 

[alphaNoid]

Well you guys gotta understand my frustration .. I cannot even play right now! If I choose another home world it says that in order to later change home worlds I need to PURCHASE a world transfer.. wtf?

So I want on Stormbluff Isle, but its Full. I'm not going to choose another permanent home world right now and get locked with without having to buy a goddamn world transfer later. So here I am, stayed up all fucking night and fucking ArenaNet locked the goddamn server and I have no option but to sit and wait until they open the server back up for new accounts?

I mean, every single other GAF player is going to experience the same exact thing from this point until they open the server back up .. whenever the fuck that is.

Client installed, waited up all fucking night.. signed in, 3 day head start, Server full, forced behind a pay wall if I want to change world later so I'm left with 1 option, which is not to play ... Fuck ArenaNet for locking worlds during the 3 day head start, way to fuck your loyal early adopters.

Server transfers are free for the first week I believe. So just start on a different server for now and hopefully Stormbluff opens ups up before the week is over.

Excuse me while I go knock over a few magazine racks.

Um...

Server transfers are free the first week or so.

 

[Atomski]

Sorry, I didn't even know how to get on the sheet. DON'T KICK ME OUT BROS.

Yeah for some reason I thought the signup on the other boards was for non gaffers :/

Welcome to every game in the genre

 

[Nyx]

Could login, create a char, but get a black screen after the story intro.

 

[alphaNoid]

Ok guys I'm tired, lazy and didn't know about free server transfers. I need to find a link to confirm that but then I will just make characters elsewhere for tonight I guess.

I need a drink ...
