Guild Wars 2

I personally think one time events are a good thing however I think they should put in more of them at least one a month, then remember the beta? the little games? every few months implement mini games that stay for a while then change on rotation over the year?

The one time events so far in my view: I wasn’t playing on the best spec pc, my main graphics card broken so playing with gt 430 and fx 6100 is pretty poor. mixture of low/ mids and highs giving me an average of 35 fps during the events.

The events were full of lag due to so many people getting online at the same time can imagain overload for the overflow servers its understandable. overall apart from the intro it ran fine for me few dcs but then again its understandable being a buy to game play they wont have the extra money to throw into testing to make 110% sure it would work fine and so and so.

My idea is to bring back a feel of guild wars 1, have these events as instances giving the option of say 5 / 10 / 15 people including using npc support characters if needed. Also only having the chance to get the reward once but able to join in as much as you like while the event is up for say a week. While giving the cliche chain events they do as collecting items finding information etc outside of the instances.

I think this will help the people who cannot afford new computers as they will not have to load server full of people on their map with all their skills. It will also promote even more guild activity as there isnt much for a guild to do? same dungeons over and over? same pvp maps and world vs world which is good dont get me wrong but its just same thing each time.

so what do you guys think? what do you think would make it a better experience for everyone?

That’d be nice. Maybe set the limit a little higher than 5 to accomplish the “group of people banding together” feel, but other than that, yeah.
Also, in terms of the event rewards: 20-slot bags and exotics are all very well and good, but I’d personally prefer an armor skin themed to the event to display your participation to the world.
