Please note most of the game I enjoy and have no real issue with.
However the following I’ve spoken about numerous times with my guild mates.
NPCs:
- Spawning from air, it’s a really annoying problem I have against most games, can we at least have some sort of animation for their creation, some mobs have this for events but why not have all the mobs do it, villagers can come out of houses, animals from bushes/trees, creatures from snow piles.
- Repair Text is annoying I don’t need to read the same message about fighting bears each time I repair, just end it when I repair or say thank you.
- Creature that scale in level, just a solid no. If you want to do this change the name slightly but please do not recycle the same mobs in high level areas unless you are going give them the same stats as a low level area, it really breaks any immersion you have when you kill a deer in one place with 5 hits then in another area it’s level 50 and it has super powers.
UI
- Text boxes are problematic, if you have your chat box too stretched it jumps up and moves into your screen and there is no freedom to place it.
- HP numbers on friendly and hostile, let us see them or at least a percentage but I want to know how much damage I’m doing to a monster, it’s fun to compare stats afterwards. (I don’t care much for PVP or WvWvW but for PVE I feel it’s important).
- Cooldowns, if they are reduced change the number to reflect that, seeing a slow 0.8 ticking down is misleading at the best of times.
- Market needs a massive overhaul, I know people have already suggested this but could take a leaf out of CCP’s book when it comes to the market it’s very slow buggy and it’s hard to know how much of our money is being taken.
- Mail limit is annoying, why can’t we have a decent mail system with guild mail, friend mail.
- Mail report button / Custom spam filter (looks for words that we deem to be spam, I’m sick of the gold seller mails).
- Remove players from a party who are log out for over 15 minutes or clearly make it aware that they are gone, sometime you don’t even know they are gone and it’s annoying.
- Put all representing alt characters under the active online one, people want to be able to read up on who is who and also what levels they are etc.
- UI to see all enemies with their range and filters so you can select by class, type, range. This would make PVP and PVE so much better, it doesn’t have to be fancy but it gets annoying when you have targeted abilities and you are trying to put it on 1 enemy/friendly then something else gets in the way and you click that instead, very difficult and no mass tabbing with 50 things trying to kill you is not an option.
Items:
- Items that are the same should be able to stack, if I buy 2 set of salvagers I should be able to stack them when they both total less than 15.
- Items that are effectively the same should be under the same market area.
- We need a way of making high level items = > many low level items, not in a high extent but just so that the low ends balance out, the current market I see no reason it will change which just makes me think someone didn’t think this out.
- Crafting items in general there is no real profit in it, reduce or remove below rare drops and just have raw materials so that making armour/weapons etc is a thing that people want.
