Guild Wars 2

So the last patch introduced a sheer amount of bugs, from the “keeps moving like an idiot when picking up a object” to the all around broken Elementalist finishers, not to mention the state of the fractals, D/Cs cannot join back, parties desperately looking for a overflow to play with people from other servers, etc…

It’s been two weeks now, can we expect something to be done before the big update coming December 14? I thought a hotfix would’ve been top priority…

Thoughts?

fix for drop rate please

Two weeks including the thanksgiving holidays. No, I would not expect a hotfix. Pretty sure they’re going to be gunshy on this and try to be careful.

And why do we need another thread with the same complaints?

Because the problems are still there despite that we’ve been complaining about this more or less constantly. They aren’t listening, but that’s not a new trick among game devs.

The fix isn’t released yet in 3 weeks == They aren’t listening?

Can we get past this argument? Can’t we all take a reasonable view and maybe assume that the fix isn’t released yet because they are working on it and it’s not yet in a good state to release safely? Is that too much to ask?

Well while the hotfix is appreciated, i wont mind if they fix those in the big update.

Yes, they definitely need to put out a big bugfix patch before wintersday, otherwise the problems will just get worse and more new bugs introduced…

And all they gotta do is post that on the forums instead of being silent about it.. people keep telling ANet communication is key yet they continue to ignore every complaint because that’s just easier I guess, even though it gets them a ton of flak.

I honestly don’t get game devs. Ignore your community = good? Is it really that hard to make a forum post explaining what’s going on? Does it reaaaaly take that much time out of their day?

I get that they cant comment on every single topic, but its worse than that.. they are actively ignoring us. At least give us SOMETHING besides hotfixes nerfing stuff.

Why should they say any more than they have. They’ve tried to communicate and they’ve A) been flamed and been ignored as “PR spin.” They already said that there are things that were not released with the Nov. 25 release that were intended to go with the Nov. 25 release but weren’t finished at that time. They’ve said that they’re watching drop rates and will make adjustments. People keep saying “Oh, we don’t want a date, we understand that you can’t give us a date.” But honestly, that’s the only thing I can think y’all are holding out for.

I agree with this and would wholeheartedly support you directing your energy to trying to understand them, instead of judging their activities when you don’t understand them.

Absolutely agree! The first one to be gone is this horrible drop rates for anything useful. I can wait until Dec 14th to be able to use kits on my engineer again but remove DR, hotfix drop rates, and hotfix magic find in open world this week please!

i’m so pissed they fixed ranger traps in hours and haven’t touched the broken iZerker in over two week, wtf

It’s entirely possible that it was simple to fix ranger traps, and it is not so simple to fix the broken iZerker.

its thrilling to kill mobs that dont drop a single item not even crap
