I’m posting this suggestion because of issues my wife is experiencing with the game. At the moment she’s frustrated and angry and not wanting to continue her personal story, and I think that’s a real shame. She’s had some very bad luck with bugs and broken content.

I don’t expect that ArenaNet is going to be able to find and fix every bug in a timely fashion, I’m sure the bug squishing will continue for the life of the game…but I would like to suggest a much-needed feature that should help alleviate some of the frustration with these play-stopping bugs.

My wife is stuck on a personal story step … ships of the line… which is very long. It takes a lot of time and effort to play all the way through the step, and she’s done it multiple times now. Each time she’s been blocked by a different bug. As each new bug gets fixed, she makes it a little farther…last night she played all the way through to near the end and then got stuck in the terrain and once again had to start completely over. I hope you can appreciate how extremely frustrating this is for her.

Could we please get a checkpoint or save system for story missions? Put in points along the way (even if it’s just at each objective completion within the story step) which save our progress so if we have to restart the mission due to bugs, disconnects, or whatever, we won’t have to repeat the entire thing.

Agree with you point. It would be a good improvement.

Wait tell she gets to a point in the storyline when she has to have other players join her to complete the ‘personal’ storyline. Not quite the solo experience one might expect
