I’d like to say my thanks to you readers! I hope you enjoyed my jumble of ideas! Please toss in your advice! Do you like it? Hate it? Would it be something you would want in the game? Please leave a comment!
Happy Holidays!

I agree that the Cities itself need work because they became empty and no point to go to them. Mini games may help in that…

Some of the ideas itself are things Anet said it’s working on, as guild halls to dungeons the major race cities of the game. It’s a question of time… not sure how much but time.

I would like to say I agree with 99.9% of this

Guild halls, Arena Net has said that there will be guild halls just no real release date on them.

Most of the Areial battles for WvWvW I don’t see as a good Idea ( that is my opinion ) although I would love to be able to see the ability to lay scouts out be it player or NPC that alerts Commanders to the movement of your enemies along with Unit sizes.

Not really keen on the idea of Personal homes, I know a lot of people like that idea but something say’s ( nothing concrete ) that the there empty cities would be even more empty, and can we say the high potential for ERP and then you have the Adult that is ERPing with the 15 year old. Then mommy see’s it and flips a lid, and where it isn’t Anet’s fault, you know the lawsuit would hit, and ergo decline in the fertility of the game. I know not every player or person would do this, but it only takes one. The Sim’s just got done fighting a lawsuit about this, not sure if they won or not but.

The rest which is shocking s hell to me I agree with

I have my own idea for a mini-event that many people find hilarious!

The Attack of the Kittens!

A feral horde of cats is released upon the city! The object of the DE is to herd all of the cats out of the main gate without killing too many of them. The cat’s can’t cause very much damage individually, but there are a slew of them and they are difficult to herd.

Some of this is interesting, some not. Keep in mind that attacking a city would make game play very hard on lower level characters unless everyone was scaled down.

An idea of my own- can’t quite call it a dungeon, but more then an event. A single group gets on a boat (between LA and Southsun?) and on the way they have to fend off pirates, or Karka; an Orrian ship; a Dragon- optional cannons or ballista. At points during the ride the captian is shouting for help to man the ropes or sails and theplayers have to go to points (labeled with arrows or something) and interact with the point. If they survive the trip, they get a reward graded on how well they kept the ship on its path. No waypoint, instead when someone dies, an NPC slowly heals them, PC can help to make if faster if they are availible to do so. No matter what they show up at their destination, but their loot reflects how well they succeeded either as a group or individually. Probably individually, so the whole group doesn’t suffer from one player not knowing what to do.

I am loving some of the ideas here, especially the whole activities thing. I could be a nice thing to have certain weapon and armour skins available in the home instance depending on your choices in the story, particularly some of the minor choices that don’t affect gameplay and story.

Though the whole city dungeon thing I don’t really see the appeal to tbh sorry.

As for siege weapons I would love to see a weapon based on each race, I mean we already have golems what about a Charr Tank, or Seraph Siege weapon.

Thank you all for your feedback! I figured you would like most of it! Most of them were things I’d be seeing as a long-term upcoming deal for Guild Wars 2 such as Zeppelin Battles and Public player homes / Guild Halls.

I hope to get more views and comments! Bumping this!

Giving this another bump!

Giving this another bump, hope to hear more opinions.
