Guild Wars 2

So now that the upcoming camera changes are more or less revealed, what are your thoughts?

I like the collision detection upgrade. And about the new camera positions, will need to test that out.

I will be exploring the whole map (excluding orr and Kessex) all over again for many weeks and finally experience the world as I’ve wanted to since the game first came out.

It really is a shame that I will not be able to experience the gorgeous zone of Kessex Hills that I loved with the new camera controls due to it being gone forever. I can’t even go into that zone anymore as it just makes me so sad to see what became of it.

More options is never a bad thing. Previously people taking cinematic screenshots would have to use workarounds like using tonics to get a good shot. It should be a lot easier now. I’m certainly looking forward to trying it out.

oh look at those perfectly cut lawns. i gotta hire the landscape guy who cuts that.

VERY EXCITED
I’m big on taking screenshots and this will make it soooo much easier.

THANK YOU, ANET <3

Perhaps I can now actually get some of the jumping puzzles that I found nigh on impossible due to the broken camera done

What I’m about to say is very important. And I want this reply to be very clear for most of the forum posters:

I told you before, I’m telling you again – whatever we want to get in this game from the dev team – they deliver!
Think about it. For all this time since launch we get what we need/request – sooner or later!

Deal with it!
Cheerz!

THANK YOU x 9999!

In all seriousness though, these changes are pretty much a dream become true for any JP enthusiast with a Charr or Norn as a main.

I’m really happy with the camera changes mostly for the collision mechanic and 1st person, but if we always get what we want, why are there still broken events that have been broken since launch? Has no one requested they be fixed?

Other than that, it’s a good day.

As someone who’s (whose?) desktop backgrounds are 90% Guild Wars 2 screenshots, I’m both glad I will be able to take purely landscape-centric pictures and exasperated that I’ll have to revisit certain places in order to re-take certain pictures without my character(s) in them.

But mostly glad. Good job devs, I am usually a happy player but this is something I’ve wanted for a long time.
