When you compare it to, say, EQ2 (weekly scheduled four-hour downtimes and any emergency patch taking the service offline for who knows how long) or LotRO (patcher that looks and runs like dried mud), GW2's virtual 100% uptime and patching that takes seconds not hours seems like magic. <br /><br />If they can do it, though, why can't everyone?Bhagpusshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03499162165023939880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-70168419322118548652017-08-08T10:20:51.143+01:002017-08-08T10:20:51.143+01:00Thanks!

For some reason I had the modern 50GB MMO download in mind but of course GW is tiny by current standards. I'd have had it downloaded in a few minutes. Never mind, it's up and running now.Bhagpusshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03499162165023939880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-72499832524922571662017-08-08T09:52:25.190+01:002017-08-08T09:52:25.190+01:00I seem to recall most of Guild Wars 1 as a constan...I seem to recall most of Guild Wars 1 as a constant loading screen in which it mysteriously downloads updates as and when you need it, on demand. Which is a glorious idea when you're actively playing and staying mostly up to date, with a fast connection, so that it takes only the space of a normal loading screen.<br /><br />...and very much less so when you're 956 patches backdated and/or have internet problems that only let you download at 26kb/s rather than MBs/s.Jeromaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02206083433625986970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-85161839553169345992017-08-08T09:07:57.052+01:002017-08-08T09:07:57.052+01:00Just a small tip.you can always download the GW1 i...Just a small tip.you can always download the GW1 installer from the GW1 site: https://www.guildwars.com/en/download<br /><br />So no need to search for CD's it will download an enormous patch anyways when you install from CD.<br /><br />Have fun with Nightfall.
