Been up all night waiting for something a bit of beta testing would have ensured arrived on time?
I pay their wages, Ill complain how I so choose, and you would do well not to tell me what or what not to do, regardless of which part of the USA you live on.

Apathetic: Anet get it together. This is your screwiest event yet. You've had a great track record, but its steadily declining. Thank god its free.
Sympathetic: Poor Anet, you guys stay up all night?!!? X_X i can only imagine the hectic chaos at the office and the pressure on the programmers.
Relativistic: Well...if this is the worse, compared to the worse DODA and WOW updates, this is cake.
The real lyra: Meh, ill go draw.

Anet puts new fils on servers one by one. Everyone will get into when every server got it.

no updates for a while... maybe a good sign... or a sign they broke something else

Okay, with all this information I'm just a bit confused about which update I'm actually downloading - for the last half hour I've been getting a patch containing about 38000 files; is this the final one or are there more yet to come?

I'm on American Severs, East Coast.
NF still greyed out, refreshes every 5 minutes doing no good (But I do have new interface as of about 9:30 am ish)

Can a Moderator change the threadtitle to 'A Big Delay'?
I don't think a 'small delay' is warranted anymore.
ANet and Events, a successtory:
GWWC:
The sound on the floor makes that (aggressive) strategies that rely on communication are having a real hard time
Faction collector's eidtion early start
some buyers get their access too late
The Dragon Festival
Kisu turns out to be the owner of a cloning devise, and creates replica's that send a shockwave of confusion
GWFC
The first day's matches have to be rescheduled for technical problems
Nightfall preview event
Still needs to start...
I know, I'm talking acid here. But I have to say this damages the reputation of the company.

38k files is roughly redownloading the whole game isn't it?
Silent Coyote
Now even the EU guild wars web site is reporting the event as started, yet still no one in europe can get into nightfall.
Lady Lozza
Meh, midnight in Aust, tg it's the weekend...

As far as I am aware there are ATLEAST 2 massive downloads, broken up by numerous smaller downloads, all of which results in a greyed out Nightfall selection screen.
What else is to come, who knows.

Did the -image thing and now I got some 37k files to decompress... hopefully it will finish by the end of the event.

I don't think most people should be complaining about the amount of time it's taking.
What's particularly frustrating is that GW updated their website claiming the event is open, when it clearly wasn't, and has yet to be, open.
You can't blame ANet for computer error delays, but you can blame them for getting the fanboy hopes up. Kinda cruel really.

Wow will people stop posting "I have one/two updates but not the others OMG whats happening Anet hates me!! QQ" If you have one then your inline for the others just wait and it will come. Quote:

I'm OK with it taking longer, I just want a realistic estimate from ANet instead of this optimistic stuff, so I don't have to sit by comp trying it every 3 or 4 minutes if it's going to be a while.

for some reason i cant access the european gw site, but i can access the american site without problem
Senator Tom
As long as it's up by the time I get back from school, I'm good.
Cyllaven
Yeah, the US site also says the event open right now to; none of us can get in though. However, if you go to log in and look at the topics on the side it says the event has been delay and that they will update on the site when the event open >.>
sassoonssamson

Realistic timeframes, FTW.
King Kong
Has the event started yet or still delayed? Ive used all my slots, so set up a new account but just get " your account is not currently authorized to play Guild Wars". Will that change when NF goes live, or did i do the account wrong
