Guild Wars 2

Apologies if this has been suggested (and I imagine it has), but my suggestion is to make it so that travel is free from any city WP to any other city WP.

My reasoning is that currently it IS free, but it is a hassle with an unnecessary amount of load screens.

Say I am at the PVP gates at Lions Arch and want to travel to the bank area of the Grove. Currently I would:
WP to the city portals in LA (load screen)
Zone into the Grove (load screen)
WP to the bank area (load screen).

My suggestion would change this to:
WP to the bank area in the Grove (load screen)

I’m not suggesting free travel to any cities (only city to city travel, just like how WP to WP in a city is already free). I’m just a little tired of looking at load screens. As a side benefit, I think this would cause the population to spread out a little bit more and spend more time in cities other than Lions Arch.

Why would you go to the bank area in the grove instead of LA . Its fine the way it is and unless your on a 14.4 modem (which i doubt ) its not like your going to be looking at it that long anyway

Going to a bank in the grove was just an example. I realize everyone can do everything at LA, it just makes all the other cities vacant and somewhat pointless aside from early personal story quests. If I could WP directly to the crafting area at DE for example, I would probably do that just to mix things up. As of now it’s a hassle with a bunch of extra loading screens, so I don’t bother.

This.

In GW1, there were several places I liked to log or hang out at that weren’t Kamadan or Lion’s Arch, for example. But with WP costs what they are, LA is where I seem to always be in GW2. And that’s a bummer; it’s not my preferred city.

Edit: Though I don’t really think city-to-city WPs are the issue for me; if it’s only from city to city that’s a free port, then all it does is stop me from seeing one or two extra loading screens. I suppose what I’d love is free waypoint travel back to a city from out in the world, but obviously that’s not gonna happen.

So I guess this post was just me commenting that everything seems to be centered on Stormw... I mean Orgrimm... Lion’s Arch.
