Guild Wars 2

Ender.3508:

Also, are we forgetting that our second run of the day (30 tokens) is still giving the same reward as our first run from before this system? 90 tokens in 2 runs, as compared to 50 from before? What is there to complain about besides some people unfairly getting hit with DR even though they shouldn’t, and THAT will be fixed.

Guildie gets 15 tokens first run, 5 next run, 0 for anything after. 20 for 2 runs, that’s far below pre-patch. Not everyone is having the same problems, some are even more screwed than most of us, which is amazing.

I wouldn’t be annoyed, except that I haven’t got full rewards for any dungeon since they put in the initial system several weeks ago. At least before the recent change I could farm tokens, while they broke my income and experience farming. Now I don’t get any of it. There is no point at all in farming dungeons at the moment.

They cant simply remove the DR system now. They took the tokens out of chests so the whole dungeon reward is now tied into that. Putting tokens back into the chests and making things the way they were is far too difficult at this point.

People need to just have some patience. I understand the majority of the complainers have no idea what code is or how insane it can be to get everything working properly but dang just have some patience and respect for a gaming company you love. They will fix the issues and then everyone will be happy.

60 tokens for the first run is SO much better than having to run 3 times. Stop the complaints about DR it is a buff to running dungeons, just let them fix the problems I assure you they are working VERY diligently to resolve our issues.

Yes, I know. That’s why I added a part about people getting hit with it when they shouldn’t be. However, many are complaining about the very idea of diminished returns, and I think that for those complaints to be valid, we should wait until the kinks are sorted out.

I think it’s sloppy to patch in a system like this without proper testing, and hopefully AN has learned from the experience. I just feel the torches and pitchforks are being raised too early and pointed at the wrong aspects and problems.

ehr.. gw1 was released when? and they’ve been working on gw2 how long? I’m always fascinated that people take “well.. uhm.. it’s complicated” as an excuse. especially regarding a company that should know better.

Yes, they know there is a problem. They made a mistake by releasing a dungeon overhaul without proper testing, and now they are working on fixing it. I’ve spent the past 3 years of my life programming, and I know just how bad it can be. A simple missing parenthesis can have you searching for 6+ hours. A mislaced decimal, even longer.

AN screwed up, yeah, but people are blowing it way out of proportion.

the problem is in the basic the design, and that has been worked on for more than the last 2-3 weeks (unless they conceived it during crunch time, but what would tell us that?).
the DR is just the knee-jerk bandaid which makes it obvious.
