GW1 Can't connect to any lobbies
Since today (21/11/24) the GW1 servers have begun acting strange and not allowing people to matchmake properly. On PC there is still a playerbase and typically you can find lobbies on Gardens and Graveyards. Now, when searching for a lobby, the game tells you that "There are no available matches meeting your criteria. Please try again later." This is not just an individual occurrence, as many of my friends are also experiencing the same thing.
Continuing to search for a lobby can eventually throw you into an empty one on Cactus Canyon, but this takes time (you have to retry dozens of times) and no one joins. You can invite people on your friends list successfully though so you can still play with friends... kinda. Even if you do get a lobby going, the game is very laggy, almost unplayably laggy.
This is clearly the result of serverside issues, and the community would greatly appreciate a fix for this. There have been matches fought daily for months, even years, and it would be very sad for us to lose this game we adore. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
There is another post that I think references this same error from December last year, but it's marked as resolved? Idk if this is caused by the same issue or if it's something else.
- Hey everyone, is everything back working for you? The teams expect the issue to be fixed now!
