Scuzz.5847 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 crashed for me to. Says cant connect to game server then just goes to black screen. Cursor is still in control but there is nothing to click on. I have to minimize and then exit out of app from my home screen task bar. This is very irritating. I can log in and sometimes play 1 to 2 hours but then it will crash. Sometimes every 20 minutes. My internet is working fine when it crashes. I exit out and sure enough have full connection. Hope this gets fixed soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moi.5013 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Sorting is still bugged for me as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArenaNet Staff Gaile Gray.6029 Posted January 11, 2018 ArenaNet Staff Share Posted January 11, 2018 We made another try at a fix last evening about 8:00 PM Pacific Time. I am assuming that sorting is still non-functional, based on Moi's post at 8:45 AM Pacific Time today. But are others still having issues? If so, have you checked since the build last night? And what is the issue you're noting? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HnRkLnXqZ.1870 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Sorting works for me. But when I add a new friend to the list, no matter if active or not, it gets moved all the way to the bottom of the list. Before the fixing process, every account added to my friendlist was listed below my active/online contacts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunacy Solacio.6514 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 I wasn't entirely sure if it is actually working or not but upon testing more it's not.... Upon logging in just now, it was not working. After clicking name twice and then sorting (I tried just sorting and it did not work the first time), it appears to be working (except it isn't and I'll explain after) after closing and reopening friends list. However, closing gw2 and reopening it starts this all over again, have to click sort twice. Why can't we just have the functionality we had before? Geeze how did this get so broken in the first place. As pointed out just above, adding someone to contacts puts them at the very bottom of the list instead of how it worked before. Removing someone (or moving from contacts to blocked) makes the last name in the list appear in that spot. Additionally, it isn't working properly still because it is NOT showing everyone that is online every time after sorting. In fact, I'd say it's behaving worse in some respects because yesterday clicking name twice, sometimes location, then sort again seemed to show everyone that was online. Now, nothing seems to force it to show the people that are actually online at the top consistently, it may work for a while but won't keep doing so especially after restarting gw2. It does tend to show a few at the top after sorting, with the rest scattered throughout the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thinking of Gary Jocks.185 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Is the numbering issue with the friends list fixed yet? Is the issue that they cannot find where the bug is in the code? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That does make sense why the contacts on the bottom would cause the crash then. Well it seems now it no longer crashes. All the info everyone submitted helped Anet I guess. Thanks all! Yes it seems the latest patch finally fixed it. Not perfectly at first but now looks sorted properly and no more crashes. I just tested what was causing the crashes every time and finally not crashing. Thanks Anet. Post if you still having any crashing issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirn.4672 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 I have repaired the client just now but the game is still crashing for me. I went to raid with ARCdps on, crashed, removed ARCdps & files and crashed 3 minutes in raids. Not sure what's going on, I run no other programs and my internet is working fine. EDIT: Restarted my pc and currently playing for about 30 minutes with no crashes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theros.1390 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 A mate crashes each time he goes to Lion's Arch Bank : when he closes the bank window : crash. I dont have the pb personally. He gots ARC, and I dont. Coincidence eh ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunacy Solacio.6514 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 With the patch that just went out, upon first opening friends list every time you launch gw2, especially if you have a lot of listings (smaller list seems to work ok?), it still does not sort properly. Closing the contacts window and reopening then seems to finally fully sort them until closing gw2. Adding a contact still puts them at the bottom. If you immediately sort they do not show up with the online accounts until you close and reopen. Removing them still puts the last entry in place of where they were. It's obviously apparent these are all just bandaid fixes on top of whatever originally broke the friends list in the first place. It's functional now but it's still not 'fixed'. edit: Spoke a bit too soon. It appears that upon opening the friends list, those that have gone offline or come online since you last opened do not sort, you have to close it and reopen it again...

Scuzz.5847 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I am still having issues. I crash even when i dont look at LFG panel. I have talked to other players with similiar issue. Its not my internet. Why is guild wars 2 being so difficult? I just paid for both expansions. Was not expecting to not even be able to play the game consistently for an hour without crashing. Please help. I have filed a support ticket and no one has gotten back to me really tired of not being able to play properly even though i was able to play fine for a month with no issue with same internet. Now i have issues. Please fix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scuzz.5847 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 How do i do that? I submitted a support ticket with error code and description of whats going on i also submitted the test that was sent via an article. The only thing i did not submit was the arenanet.log file because i couldnt find it. I did this via email. Have not heard back from anyone since.

Lunacy Solacio.6514 Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 In Anet's infinite wisdom, ArenaNet.log was moved to what is arguably a harder location for some users to find. Unless it puts it in different locations on different systems, it should be in "c:\Users\*windows account*\AppData\Roaming\Guild Wars 2\" And the contacts issue is still not resolved properly. It often can, especially on large contact lists, not properly sort even if you open and close the contacts list, click multiple times, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 All my different Contact List are still not working properly. The names will show up after much clicking, eventually, but they should be at the top when first accessing each list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinriel.4539 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 I still crash everytime I try to open the LFG tool. Everything looks frozen, I can move the mouse around but I can't do anything else. I can't submit the crash report because it doesn't appear. Everything gets stuck and I have to shut down the game from the task manager. I started having this problem after the first hotfix on 09/01/2018.

shadowes.8426 Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 yea still bugged on the followers list, have to scroll down alot, then close and reopen followers and only then does it look like i have a full list of online followers then. btw its nice that the name are A-Z which is a nice bonus i guess. (unless its always been like that then nevermind) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunacy Solacio.6514 Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 It hasn't always been that way, and honestly I preferred it before, as it primarily showed in order added. It had it's uses. Definitely has it's benefits to find a name being A-Z, just would have preferred it as an option (should have always been an option really) than a required. Block and followers are presenting a number of issues, follower takes less work to get to sort. If this is how it's going to be left, would like an explanation of why contacts was messed with in the first place, and why it can't work how it did before. Adding a friend puts them at the bottom of the list. Removing a friend puts the last entry in that spot instead of shifting it up as you'd expect. This behavior has occurred ever since Contacts was messed with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meddo.9614 Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 This is still messed up but Anet don't read this post anymore. Listen to your community Anet it's always been a issues with you guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
