Guild Wars 2

First of all, I should start saying I’m really excited for the 2013 updates! I’m sure they will be loads of fun! However I have a few questions and a request regarding the 2013 updates.

I will also accept the answer “We cannot comment on this at this time.” because I understand NDA and not wanting to release info before it is ready.

Questions:
1. Will there be expansion packs in the future? How much will they cost? What will they add?

2. Will “Dueling” ever be added into the game?

3. Will more utility, healing, racial and elite skills be added into the game in the future (2013)?

4. Can I have a pet turtle for my ranger and name him Charles?

5. Can I touch Colin Johansons beard?

Well that raps up my questions! Now… The request.

I have but only 1 request. But it is a big one… Please add more classes to the game. In more particular… The Dervish. Before GW1 Nightfall I had never played a class quite like it. I fell in love with the class instantly, just to have it taken away in GW2. I’ve tried everything to bring that love back with another class in GW2 or tried to fall in love with another but… I have failed. I’m not saying I don’t like the classes. I’m just saying I haven’t been enjoying any of them more than the others. Guardian and Ranger are the 2 I enjoy most but I don’t enjoy them nearly as much as I did dervish back in GW1.

I only bring this up because I heard on the forums once that ArenaNet wont be making any more classes to the game cause there is “Something for everyone” when there isn’t. I feel like I’m on the side lines… I don’t have much to hold onto in GW2 and when I see my guildies playing their favourite classes, I feel sorta left out.

So for the TL:DR’ers

I want dervish cause none of the classes give me that loving feel like Dervish did in GW1.

Also. I don’t mean just added Dervish (obviously). I would love to see other classes added too! New ones. Old ones. Crazy ones that can only be thought up by a Asura drinking a Sylvari “Nectar Drink”… god those were crazy nights…

Thank you for reading!

I’m worried about what I found in the PvP section of that article…

“We also want to make it easier to play games against good opponents, and give the ability to compete in games where ranking matters quickly and easily.”

Mention of ‘community’ all the time not one mention of the solo players and those that prefer to do things solo or have to because of RL commitments. These solo players are in guilds etc but either can’t or don’t want to ruin squads by joining and then going afk half way through, ruining the whole run for the majority.

Looks like it’s going to be ‘join a group to do it’ or you are going to miss out.

Would like to read what they are doing for this large section of the community- whether it’s dungeons (no dungeon gear, you can’t trade the tokens), FoTM (no ascended gear, can’t trade tokens), basically been left behind, and the major problem with the new fractals system is that big break point at level 10 agony- a player lvl1 joining a level 11 fractal will spend 90% of the time on the floor, and it would be even worse at higher levels, so it isn’t really a solution to lfg lvl1 fractals, may have to disappear after first run (so not gaining any benefit from that run and still stuck at lvl1 and 4 more disgruntled players).
