Logging in to game

For most of us it might be a simple subject , but some would like to know more details about logging screen and about all the possibilities and limitations the login screen gives us.

Logging into game is indeed simple and I will explain it using just a few screen shots.

So lets begin:

After starting Guild Wars 2 , the first thing we see is the login screen. If You have not been playing for a while, or You starting the game for a first time - the game will launch necessary download. It will begin to download important updates and without them You will not be able to play. You must be patient as it might take a while, especially if You are first time player. You cannot skip or avoid this process. However, if You play GW 2 regularly - it is very likely that You will barely even see this screen.

(Login screen - appears right after launching the game. In this proccess, the game downloads its necessary updates).

Right after this process, the main part of the login screen appears.
If You preffer different language , You can switch to it using flags on the right-upper corner of the loging screen.  You must enter Your login credential (account name or email and Your password) and press "LOG IN" button below. If You are first time player You need to create it first using "create an account" option on the same screen.

(Login screen for GW2. Some parts of the game are being downloaded while you are logging into game.)

 While the game is waiting for You to enter your credentials - another download starts. This download is usually quicker than the first one and it is unnecesary to wait until it is finished. However You will not be able to start the game (the PLAY button will remain inactive) until the downloading process riches the certain level. Please check the picture above for more details.

When the game is ready to launch , just press the PLAY button on the bottom-right corner of the login screen. Enjoy the game!

Note! Sometimes players can expirience some temporary error while trying to log in. It does not happens often. Do You have or had any trouble to log in to game? Do You have a question regarding this subject? Leave it in the comment section.
