Idk about other people but today is the 5th day of me only finding empty servers in GW2 pc... I trued connecting to every server, but still, there is not a single soul. EA please answer, is this a problem with your servers? I also trued playing with my friend in his backyard, the game was lagging almost to the point of being unplayable, but I didn't encounter any problems in my own backyard and when playing solo game modes... Please EA answer, it is sad that you neglect this game.

@CptHeadache i have the same issue

@DeanCody05 yeah exactly, I don't think they are shutting down GW2 servers, it's just they are responding poorly to the problem, if they are even responding... Hopefully they'll fix the issues soon

Yeah it is likely for EA to do that... but game still has enough players for servers to stay up, lawn of doom event came back this year and PS4 servers are still up... I just don't see why would they only shut down Xbox and PC servers. It's probably just bad servers and is taking them a lot of time to fix (or they just couldn'tbe asked), I remember once origin was down for a whole day or something... potato servers

@MikeyJohn2 why are they not shutting down the servers for pvzgw 1 then? i still find lobbys on that game xD

Yesterday I checked the GW1 servers on the EA site and it was displaying that they were down but then I tried to play the game and it was just fine and more than that. I have never seen so many max rank players on GW1 in the same session. And I was able to find full lobbies on both Gardens and Graveyards and Team vanquish. It seems that everyone that is not able to play GW2 is playing GW1. And also the Halloween event has started on GW2 and the town hall has opened and surprise surprise I was not able to find a single lobby. It has been more than a week and I still have a feeling that no one from EA knows about this. Or who ever is in charge of the GW2 servers. I mean what should we do, this forum is more less dead or ignored, tweeting at EA or PopCap probably won't help either.

Same with me.
When I go here

I see that the PC and Xbox servers are down, have been for many days now.
I am beginning to wonder if EA has killed the servers for this game with no intention of brining them back...

I'm having the same problem on the PS4 - until a week ago my daughter and I would easily find matches to play and now we're lucky to get in a match with one other person. With the event now live it takes a really long time to finish a match with only one person on the other team. Is there some place where we can submit a request for support on this to get a sense of what's going on?

@OneCrazyCanuck Just a follow-up on this. I chatted with an EA support person and they said there were no reported issues with the server. They suggested the normal "try playing later" but I also got them to open a support request ticket on it. I guess we'll see what comes of it but hopefully we'll be online gaming together soon!
