hi all, just wondering, has anyone noticed since anet added there "re login" thing to the game, err7's have seemed to get fewer and fewer? but when you get them, or general connection issued, you can just log back in, which is great.

BUT!, ever since then, the game has jsut been going down, new errors that stop you leaving explorable areas, starting missions (Viz square in cantha etc) and err13 and 14 which stop you being able to log in or play certain characters for half an hour, basically, i want to know whats going on, this log back in feature is all well and good, but when you CANT log back in, it really doesn't help.

so basically, i think ante need to start sorting out solutions for these errors, and things better than "send us an email with blah blah blah data" as usualy by the time you have sent it GW is working again, though by thiis time the how evere long you have to re log back to your team has expired, leaving you kinda stuck.

these are just my thoughts, anyone else?

err7 rate should not have changed at all as the reconnect after disconnect is slightly different problem. I've not had any new technical issues at all since the feature was added myself though and I've logged a fair few hours... (well with the exception of laggy server side gameplay)

We have received reports that some European players recently have experienced latency issues and packet loss, particularly at times of peak European concurrency. The network teams are investigating this matter and hope to have the problem resolved as quickly as possible. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we get this situation solved.
How many days has this message been on the Guildwars website?
And apart from the "ok a minor minor problem is occurring" feeling (which is crap, ALL the people in my ally - not simply guild - are experiencing the same issues), is someone actually looking into this problem?

Two days ago, if you looked into observer at Euro evening time you could see a lot of 8vs7, 7vs6 matches. My guild started a great match: 6vs5

Tonight we're at it again -_-

Right now there's a tournament starting. Even in normal condition, when meeting asian teams we usually end GuildWars and start LagWars.... if we have to add more connection issues, it sure won't be fun :/

Admittedly, I'm not on the Euro servers and was unaware of this (explains a little bit why America has actually gained favor more lately ) That does sucketh.

The only time I ever get err=7's is when I'm loading a map.

And when I do get them, I can NEVER RECONECT.

I really don't understand why error 7's happen. I have a great connection 9/1 (ping is always in the green) and a fast computer (I get 85 fps solid with everything cranked). Thing is the other night I was playing HA and we won. It started to cycle to next map and I instantly get dropped. I try to restore connection but to no avail. I think twice I succesfully restore connection. My point is the error 7's have seem to become more common since last fall, I was hoping that Anet could shed some light on this.

I had an error 7 once while questing; a popup instantly told me that I had disconnected because of a network problem and asked if I would like to reconnect. Pushing reconnect instantly put me back into the game and where I was.

The "rejoin" feature works perfectly fine for me.

Error 13's on the euro server are normally the server going down. It happens every so often.

The only connection problems I've had recently (since the reconnect feature was added) were HA giving out loads of err=13's. And that's it.

I am on the American servers though.

Im on the EU servers and it's been fine for a few days.

But suddenly, about 15 minutes ago, I logged in. Uh oh. No guild.

Then I went through a portal to take some screenshots for the Weapons screenshot thread and BAM. No load. Then disconnect.

Then I log in, I have a diff char selected. Try it. Error=13. Out. Im in again loading a map now.

And its loaded...kinda scared to move now though
