Hi everyone! I'm thinking of starting GW soon and I was reading some of the earlier posts in the thread...with Nightfall just round the corner, would it be a good thing if I got myself a copy of Prophecies and start on that first?

QUOTE(khelben @ Oct 1 2006, 12:14 AM) Do you have any firewalls? What anti-virus are you using? Did you put your GW.exe in the exception list? But if the dat to bak works then maybe you should just leave it and see how it goes lol haha put in exception list liao....dunno la....guess i'll have to wait for a looooong time  ah well....i wonder what's wrong with the cd though  oh one thing though...when i logged in straight from the cd, there's this little lightning bolt/Z sign near the minimize window button...i'm assuming it's downloading somethg...maybe i have to wait till that sign disappears b4 i can log in properly? coz...waiting for 11k files...that's worse than ff11 first update This post has been edited by duh2k: Oct 1 2006, 12:25 AM

QUOTE(heaven @ Oct 1 2006, 04:07 AM) Hmm... maybe you can try getting an updated DAT file so you don't have to DL that much to play, do you have a storage media which can hold around or more than 3.6Gb? I live in Sunway. Another method is that you open GW shortcut properties and add " -image " to your shortcut, it should read as below:- "C:\Program Files\Guild Wars\Gw.exe" -image This command will DL the current most up to date files, GW will quit after all the files are aquired, then you remove " -image " from your shortcut, your GW is complete and ready to go then, you need to let it DL for sometime though(a night maybe?), but after this DL you don't have to DL much aside from new updates and loading between zones will be a breeze(which should better your GW experience). trying that method now....63k files and counting bugger....this is sooooo annoying  EDIT: May have found the reason for ALLLLL my problems....peerguardian2....i THINK it lists arenanet as one of the sites to be blocked....just disabled peerguardian just now and i could log in....
