I can't get in either, though that isn't saying much since I haven't managed to get much playing at all yes (character creation must have crashed on me a good 30 times by now).
The beta forums are down too, so I reckon their entire system just became toast.
Login servers most likely having a bit of trouble, I noticed that apparently it also affected the guild function, and other functions such as trade post.
Guess that's the dinner bell. See you all in a few...
'Sandbox MMO' is a PTSD trigger word for anyone who has the experience to know that anonymous players invariably use a 'sandbox' in the same manner a housecat does.
When your head is stuck in the sand, your ass becomes the only recognizable part of you.
No game is more fun than the one you can't play, and no game is more boring than one which you've become familiar.

Seems like its back to being down today. And I just got out of the overflow server >_<. BTW Overflow is pretty neat. I always wished you could play the game while waiting for the game to load. This is the closest thing to it.
Also,I don't see how people say they've been trying to play all weekend and haven't been able to play more than 1 hour. It's one thing to say that they've been busy that's why they couldn't play, but most of the posts seem to try to blame on the downtime. I've been playing since 11:45 PDT friday and it's been down a total of probably 1 hour, which is frustrating cuz the game is fun, but expected being the first public beta. Same goes with 3 of my friends playing with me. Usually knowing the my chars gonna get wiped would deter from playing any further, but I'm having too much fun figuring out skills, timing and techniques.
One of the few games that I'm happy I pre-purchased. Especially because I don't need to pay a single dime to keep playing it afterwards.
TL;DNR: GW2 is down again, which is expected being the 1st public beta. I'm happy with the uptime for a beta and having fun playing it.
Definately looks like their authentication servers are down, 64.25.32.82, the last hop before trace route fails is a machine in the same subnet (64.25.x.x) as the authentication server which is replying saying it cant find a route to that IP... not good!

Just because you can get in doesn't mean other people can. I have only managed to get to level 3, with all the disconnects, crashes and login rejections.
When I say I havent been able to play for a certain x amount of time I mean "normal" gaming hours in the afternoon. Pretty irrelevant for me if I could log on at 5AM without any problems ey? :-)
If I had just not logged out to try out a mesmer I could still be playing.
Yup, same kinda thing here. Played a Human Guardian to level 4 earlier, didnt like it. Been playing a Norn Engineer upto level 5 and having a blast.
Logged out to give a Charr Ranger a go and BAM. No more GW2 for you
Disappointed one of the community relations guys/gals hasnt said anything about this on any of the social media outlets. I though ANet were all about social media and communication.

Not sure if that would be the case. I was logged in, went downstairs for 20 minutes, came back and was kicked out. Not sure if everyone in game was kicked but I started getting the error code and forum issue as soon as I was kicked 30-45 min ago.
8 hours of work early in the morning, got back home and now this?! As one of the most anticipated game in the world i was expecting they would have more stable servers... tbh thats one thing swtor actualy got it right lol
ok so this is BS because I wouldnt have even bought the game just now if I new I couldnt get in I mean this si rediculous this game is obviously going to be pushed back there servers are no where near ready if there having these kinds of problems now.
OK rant over back to trying to log in..
P.S I Been waiting SOOOOOOOOOOLOOONGGGG for this game
