Steam has them all on sale again, if anyone doesn’t have them…what the hell am I saying is there anyone who doesn’t?

Hm, I don’t.
But I’m not making a steam account so whatever…

“Players who recently bought the GW2 core game can get a refund from the support so that they don’t have to pay again.”

Aaaaand the long time players get what as compensation…?

Why would we get compensation? The core game is just a free addition to the package. The price isnt that bad for standard.

The no character slot on standard edition is questionable. And we dont have much info on everything we have. But those are the only issues. I will happily pay more than £35 for the game. I just wont do it yet. I dont know what im paying for after all.

PS. Kind of sucks that the conversion to £ isnt correct. We are paying more in the UK.

Well, I just think that long-term customers should just get that one character slot when they but HoT; the one you get for the ultimate edition can stay, adding up to two slots for existing players, one for new players.
While the core game is free, it still feels like you’re paying for the core too; even more so with a price tag like this.

I heard you get the short end of the stick quite often when it comes to pricing. Sucks indeed.

I don’t see it as paying for the core game at all. Maybe it’s because it’s a strategy I’m used to seeing. Last game I actually bought an expansion for was EQ, and there they did the same thing, buy an expansion you get everything before it. For a long time it wasn’t that way but eventually we were talking $200 to just get into the game, pretty silly to expect new players to come with that type of price tag. So they went to this type of system and I think it’s a good idea.

Thing is though. I see it as a great bonus for a prospective new player. “ohh I heard about this expansion, looks cool… ohh nice, I don’t even have to buy the base game and if I pre-order I can just jump right in and get ready for it, sweet deal”

While as a current player, it’s just “ohh… I’m paying to test your game…”

No reason I should pre-order, no incentive.

But that said, yeah, I have no intentions of buying the expansion with what we know now about it so for sure I wouldn’t pre-order. I just want them to get to the “challenging content.”

They’ve already talked a little about the “challenging group content”: it’s gonna be the new missions for guild halls.

With no comment. Less then a week after I get tempbanned for mentioning that it’s helpful to have comments on closed threads.

That one hadn’t even gotten off-topic or unconstructive, f//fs.

They clearly don’t want your attention dlonie, they don’t like you, accept it. :P

You probably got the dev you’ve quoted in hot water too.

Yeah I wanted to answer (busy week end) and saw that…. just Wow !!

As I said in the thread, communication is two sided but apparently when you want to discuss about it they don’t want…. too bad.
Then I think it is better to to cater to the nth thread about " I feel fooled", “I spent 1 billion dollars worth in gem in the game and I want a char slot” or " Stop content that is more than 30 minutes long because I have chronic diarrhea"…. that is much more helpful for the game

Reinforcements needed!

Sinister Gear is good against high armor. For some classes better the zerker in certain situations. I know with the incoming update that sinister gear is going to be more useful.

But I am thinking it isn’t going to replace zerker for guardian despite this change. Am I right with this assumption or am I wrong?

Have not seen “nerf zerk” threads for a while now… HoT pricing threads new meta?

Well, there’s still the big ramp up issue to deal with. Even if a max damage situation has sinister higher you’re going to have lower initially, your burst with power will be superior. So it will be a matter of finding where that crossing point is and how it applies in a practical sense.

That was my thoughts. I am also not sure if burning alone will be enough. Thanks.

Don’t go Sinister on a class with only 1 condition.

I wasn’t planning on it. This was in relation to a thread on the guardian fourms. A new player ask for help, I said get zerker or knghts, some one else told him to get sinister. I just was double checking my math

I just realized something.. with the changes to burning, Tar in Arah p1 is going to be a pain, especially in pugs.

One Guardian should be able to do perma burning. If you have some eles they will be getting burn on crit too so it would only be an issue in really weird party comps.

i’m willing to wager that they will unintentionally bug out the “hot footed” debuff at grawl shaman, making him even harder for the next few months.

Lyssa Priest will be funny when she applies double confusion. 50 confusionstacks are gonna hurt xD

What I’m more concerned about with Tar is that when he puts that really long burn on you (that has insane condi damage) when you get knocked back into the fields, it will now stack in intensity. And I doubt they’ll adjust the damage to the new values.

As for shaman.. =(

I guess not! Back on the alt account again, got another ban for saying ‘I don’t think ArenaNet is interested in hearing what they don’t want to hear".

Thanks for proving my point, mods! xD

I surely hope not. That would be disgusting — anyone would be fed up in her shoes, and all she did was try to give us something.

Pls stahp telling them how to break their game EcoRI. You should have learned to be more careful what you post in here by now :P

alright guys linecasting is officially much easier with changes to how max range on skill shots work, prepare to learn to exploit!

As long as the pugs aren’t stacking in every corner they come across they can use the whiskey without hitting their team, oh wait…..

Has anyone ever had an illusionist spawn where the berserker usually guards the door after the hunter?(p1/2 arah)

Got the feeling dlonie got banned. Almost two days now since the latest post.

It’s been noticed a few times, but I don’t think anyone really knows why it happens. I seem to remember hearing that sometimes it’s even a level 84.

And they say that other times, late at night, the ghost of Robert Hrouda appears in its place, haunting the ArenaNet servers and trying in vain to reach out to the dungeon community to express his deep remorse over enticing us to care about this game at all.

But it’s cool if you just skip him. He said so himself.

Hehe nice, this is also my third acc on this forum

I’ll be back in a couple days, they just put me in time-out for acknowledging that mods exist.

Skiddish little critters, those mods. Prolly best to avoid eye contact.

Meh, the price vs the character slot was never my problem to begin with. Although I suppose this will make the majorty of people on the fourms complain more now that anet has given in on this one.

I just want to know what the challanging PvE content is, and the rest of the elite specalizations before I buy.

Yeah, I have two questions holding me back from purchasing.

1. What is meant by challenging group content?
2. What is happening with fractals?

If ANET can show something enticing with regards to those two items, I’ll buy the expansion.

Funny to see them give in. Enough public whining never seems to fail. But, cool, character slot built in.

Now, is the expansion even worth the money?

So with bandit crests being made a token in the wallet, does that mean it’s a dungeon?

The price is what I expected now, but…
I got 2 free slots already, what am I gonna do with another one? <.<

P.S. At least I can justify the purchase with myself now.. not that it matters, at this rate I won’t get it because I’d be the only one roaming helplessly around the kittenty SW 2.0 maps. Err, soz, gliding.

For all players who registered the core Guild Wars 2® game prior to January 23, 2015 and who upgrade their account by prepurchasing and registering any Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns edition before Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns‘ launch, we will add one additional character slot to your Guild Wars 2 account.

kek, you still have to buy it before the launch to get an additional slot.

Business, business. Guess i will preorder today. Call me maguuma trailblazer from now on! Kek.

I preordered already, I will play HoT no matter what. But the quality and the size of HoT will determine if I buy the expansion after HoT.

HoT will determine wether i keep playing this game or not!
To all of those who followed E3, can’t wait for Horizon Zero Dawn, like holy * this game will be amazing!

Actually, I’m more hyped about The Crew: Wild Run, which will come out in November, than I’m currently about HoT.

Pfft kazuls. Fallout 4 for life.

The size, quality, and direction of HoT will determine if I buy HoT I’ll listen to guildies and forum folks for a couple weeks after launch to see if it’s any good, and that’s only if the CGC looks at all interesting.

Just rememeber that the “veteran appreciation”, the extra character slot, gets nullified if you don’t prepurchrase.

Is it me or is ele ridiculous now?

I can have the same d/f staff build and be immune to conditions
