Cannot login here at all after the patch.

I got home and I was able to login, went to parents house and just got back and I cannot login. The game updated.

Err 58, something about routing issues.

Hmm, tried logging in and left it there. After a while my firewall poped up saying something wanted to be a server, auto deny anything that I know didn't start from me. Maybe if I let it I could log in.. now what was it again.

We should get an extension for this.

Okay. We had problems with just Prophecies, particularly when there was some kind of special event. Now with Factions up and running there seems to be more problems, mostly during the special events. What is it going to be like with chapter 3, 4, 5 ...............................? Lot's more problems! How many of you are waiting in line to buy more? As P.T Barnum stated "There is a sucker born every minute." A-net got enough of my money. I'll just enjoy what I have (when I can get on and stay on).

For all you who are planning on spending money for chapter 3, I have some prime real estate and a couple of bridges I'd like you to buy. LOL

We're sorry for the inadvertent "time out" and are working hard to get things back to normal!

assumes it will be fixed, in time; then, sometime later, perhaps they will add an "Emergency Maintenance" message to the login screen...

Perhaps it's not Anet's fault at all, bandwith shaping and packet deprioritisation 'necessary' to make 'best' use of the 'expensive' and 'limited' internet may have reached a new level, after all: monopolies > government > profitmaking business > private users > email > gaming > evil, nasty, thieving (attrib RIAA) filesharers, right?

just rude

Think of a plastic sandwich bag as Anet's GW servers. Each time someone logs on, a bit more air is added into the bag.

So, what do you think will happen when too many people log on? That's right, BOOM! The bag explodes and all the air is let out. Also, no more air can get in the bag because there's at least one big hole somewhere. So what this means is that when too many people log on, the servers make like a paper bag and overload, and then a WHOLE lot of people get kicked. Also, you can't log in because there's a big hole in the "bag."

Anet fixes the problem by patching up the hole, and possibly making the bag bigger. They may also just buy a much bigger bag.

However, it's not as easy as one might think. They have to diagnose exactly what caused the problem, be it too many people in one area and not enough districts, too many people on in general, or some other weird server issue. Once they've figured out the problem, they have to take appropriate measures. Resetting the server is one if the server overloaded, and this can take upwards of 45 minutes to an hour. Allocating more districts to a certain area may also be needed, but that takes a bit of programming to do. And in the worst case scenario, if it was a different server issue, they have to figure out what's causing the problem and then do a whole bunch of different stuff depending on what it is.

Now with all these people logging on GW for the Elite Weekend, there's probably more than Anet's servers could handle. So now they need to reset the overloaded servers and bring in some emergency bandwidth to handle the problem.

By the way, I got kicked too and have been out for a while.
Ur joking right? The last time I was at a Jose Quervo sponsored event, they didnt run out of tequila.

Dot dot dot. I'm not even guna justify that with an answer. I would know how flakey it has been by the amount of times it's been down when I've gone to try and play. Since gw came out last year I've had VERY few problems with it, I'm sorry but I've played few other games that are as reliable as gw and that have the huge player base.

I'm sure Gaile meant to say "Europe and Asia are [also] having problems," not just exclusively them.

So, yes, problem identified, possible remedy deduced, and measures currently being taken for a fix!

(I've also asked if anyone wants to use Guilda, the volunteer Server Hamster, but so far they say she can continue to nap. She has a busy weekend in front of her, working on the Elite Missions. )
Also, it's back up.
