I bet anyone the server problems are due to ANet trying to add a new feature to the store.

Don't expect this page to be updated anytime soon - it wasn't during their last big crash.

Oh well, back to Oblivion for tonight :P

err7 disconnect, then err40 and 58 trying to play the character. followed by err13 when trying to sign in.

bah!

the problem is: there are rarely server issues... and so when there is a large one like this, everyone notices and is (obviously) annoyed. *sniff* come back!

Finally my boyfriend gets home from work, and we start a mission... then the servers meltdown. Just great. We live on opposite sides of the continent and that's the first time we've errored out at the exact same time, so I'm assuming the problem is widespread.

Its these weekends. They cause mass lag and err 7. I vote no more events and more good weekend game play with less lag.

Can't get back in here either.

From what I could see, a few guildies disconnected while others were unaffected, some disconnected again but could log in to complain, then I disconnected, was able to log in to the login screen a few times, but bailed when I tried to pick a character. Then I couldn't get in at all.

Possibly one server went down, which led to a cascade to the other servers when people tried to log back in again.

I think Yuna might have had it right. They might be adding new store items, seems their store is really really buggy.


BTW this thread is hilarious.

Yup, can't get it to work either. Err58 when I want to connect, and err7'd a few times in-game. Had terrible chat-lag all week. My guildies also had problems with err7 and chat lag tonight...

It's hard to say definitively what's causing the problem, other than a server crash. Likely ANet will have it up as soon as possible, but you gotta give them some credit - for a game that's up nearly all of the time, they don't have a bad track record. It's up way more than other MMO's *coughWoWcough*.

It's safe to say it happened to everyone. My group had just gotten into HoH when the "outage" occurred.

Because GW people are boreing, poeple suck and the whole world is in a quickening downward spiral into the dark abyss. The thunder will rumble, clouds will turn, the sun willl set and in the darkest hour as we blame the death of our innocence and beauty on the missguided fortunes of a fickle few we will all know deep down inside that our own fate has been sealed by a group of non profit, beady eyed and foul intentioned monkeys.
