Guild Wars 2

So I don’t know if anyone else noticed, but the Great Collapse has been refitted into a coliseum and the wall/homes beyond repaired… so why is it DR’s map still shows a crumbled wall? I know this is a minor detail, but I feel that if the world is truly changing, then maps should be altered to reflect these changed. Do you have any intent on fixing DR’s map in the next patch? Or at all for that matter?

My Divinity’s Reach map has shown the new area on it instead of the Great Collapse since the update came out. [screenshot]

However, on the same subject, why does Lion’s Arch’s map still show a bridge by the lighthouse where there is no longer a bridge? The world may never know…

Mia do you mind posting a screen of what you are discussing?

To Stin, yes that’s a very confusing piece, especially for new players trying to get the POI

And what’s that big tent on the map in Orr? There’s never a big tent there when I go to Caer Shadowfain

If you look at the screenshot, you will see that the outer city wall (to the west of new area) still shows as broken. My guess is (since we’ve already been told that the whole district will be closed after the event) something will just destroy it again. Thus, they didn’t really pay that much attention to fixing the map – it’s going to be redone again soon anyway.

My Mini Map looks the same. The Pavilion is there.

However, on the same subject, why does the Southsun Cove map show NO Bridge in the southwest corner (connecting the WP there to the larger island) but after the last LS there, that bridge is now complete. The world keeps getting stranger and stranger..

Yes, the pavilion is there, but look closer on the map you posted, the wall to the left of the pavilion is still destroyed, even though in game it has been repaired. https://dviw3bl0enbyw.cloudfront.net/uploads/forum_attachment/file/95602/crown_pav_DR_map.jpg

Not the whole district, just the ability to get into the pavilion

All the inconsistent / outdated maps are obviously the work of that asura (I think its an Asura anyway) in Lion’s Arch who complains about it being harder than he thought to map the area and that all he has so far is a bunch of under new management signs. Guy needs to get with it already.

So, can any developers out there tell us why DR, LA, and possibly other maps haven’t been repaired? Do you plan to mend them on a later date, or is it that you forgot, or indeed, don’t even care about aesthetics (which would be pretty poor salesmanship).

just report them ingame as a bug….more than likely they are just oversights

I sent an email… but we all know they don’t really pay attention to those, nor have they seen fit to respond to this topic, so I guess they don’t care.

Maybe in a future expansion. This area will be a entrance into anther zone.

I think that would more likely be one of the main streets
