Environment you'd like to see most in GW2?
Um…number one, I guess. Not really picky, though I’m not especially fond of snow, and we have some of that, already. As long as it’s pretty…of course, that’s very subjective. Lol.
I’ve always like Cloud Kingdoms ever since I got to the Kingdom of Zeal in Chrono Trigger. The Zephyr Sanctum kinda counts as one I guess, I really enjoyed that release. Maybe the Zephyrites have a main sky kingdom island they live on?
Also, Seas/Island It’s time to explore the unknown or what was once known.
We need some brave explorers to step up to the plate and chart the Unending Ocean, perhaps they’ll find Cantha. Perfect excuse to reinstate the hero system.
Living story is perfect for opening up new regions. I’m tired of festivals and SAB. Nothing would make me more happier if they added new explorable areas and made exploration meaningful.
As long as it’s a lvl 80 area to expand our content for PvE post lvl cap I’ll be happy. If i had to pick the first of many to come, I would have to say Ring of Fire, or as you suggest Lava Land.
Would love an underwater city and zone. That said, they need to invest some serious man-hours to underwater mechanics if they want such a thing to be successful (but oh how I’d love them for it).
We know there’s more to the world than Kryta, Maguuma and Ascalon. We have yet to see the Crystal Desert, Ring of Fire, the cities of Cantha(yeah, I said the “C” word), the Jade Sea or the Underworld. Most of our existing GW2 world is pretty, mid-European decor. Even the jungles don’t really look like jungles.
In my dream design, there would be a whole new set of leveling zones based around a theme. I’d love the option of starting a new character somewhere else.
I like them all, great finds all these above pics.
Jade Sea. /thread
Delayed content is eventually good. Rushed content is eternally bad. ~ Shigeru Miyamoto
1- underwater
2- Elonian (I love that pic btw)
3- desert (crystal)
Was having an interesting discussion about the great artwork in the game with a friend. We agreed how excellent it is, but there’s something missing..something iconic and fantastical like the Jade Sea whirlpool, Echobald Forest, Crystal Desert statue in the world. Would like oto see a few more centrepieces in new areas wherever we go
Those all sound good. More environmental scenery the better imo.
Lorewise, I’d love a return to the Crystal Desert. The Jade Sea and the Echovald Forest would look incredible in GW2.

I really want to see a very dark forest with no minimap allowed, so you must find the way to something, but this forest must be huge, with few houses/camps with torches, in that you can buy stuff, but i want it to be open zone, not like the southsun survival, so you can see other people and go with them + there must be no waypoints, ooh that would be nicee, im thinking on making a new topic in the suggestion forum about this.
and from the suggestions here i like:
Bamboo Forest, Forest Shrines, Cherry Blossom Forest

Living Underwater City
That would be a fun one.

God no do not listen to this guy on reinstating heroes it killed gw1 imo I hated the fact there was no player interaction then leave hero system dead or lose players yea we don’t like playing solo but adding heroes still makes it solo imo they don’t interact with you. You can’t start talking about last nights football game or animes no just no let dead dogs remain dead they are not touched by zhaitan
on topic Cantha please or stir something up to allow us the players to assist the tengu that might add some more things maybe as far as landscape who knows just I am dieing to give you my money for some in game lore that the tengu provide in their interactions that tell us about talon and cantha and the years after shiro

I d like to see more castles interior…possibly not ruin of castles.
And less lava if possible.
A PvE player is supposed to avoid a 1-2 second 1 shotting aoe.
A WWW player is considered uncapable of avoiding a 5,75 second aoe for half his health.
That city in the clouds is just brilliant. We had the zephryte guys already but i think they could’ve done so much more and made it so much better and permanent.
Also, Cantha would be awesome, but I think that the GW2 community is already vocal enough in that regard.

oooo I like your idea that would be nice and it would encourage player interaction as it may get or just become more challenging making it impossible to go alone give us something that makes us have to work like a community such as this make a living story that we go to investigate something and it collapses under our feet as the start of it kind of how the jubilee was done with the instance we are investigating (doable solo or with party) and upon finishing at collapse dropping us into a non mapped no waypoint zone with other players similar to ebg jp(dark room) it would be like sab but better!(no offense sab is alright just doesnt tickle my fancy) who knows maybe you could link it to an expansion for release of tengu as it has parts with tunnels made by a horrid and powerful creature that will soon threaten them

lol I’m posting a lot but I really like this thread and as a vet gw1 player I would love to see underworld with what they’ve done with gw2 so far they could easily make some story scenarios out of it (remember gwens mother in UW for gw1?) if gwen was in your party they interacted and gave some backstory on the searing of ascalon either way they could use this for revenue and make dlc bonus stories allowing us to recap some of (gw2’s historical and memorable battles some new and some old(relevant for some of us gw1 vets that we can be like man I remember that and maybe just put us doing an optional task we didnt get to do in gw1 but we get to see togo and mhenlo with random adventurers fighting afflicted and shiro etc)
I’m just going to pick all.
Perky – 80 Norn Guardian
Soapie – 80 Human Ranger
A dark sinister forest would get my vote. Lots of trees, small groups of mobs not large events, and plenty of wildlife or undead to kill.
Castles, ruined or not would also be a nice addition.
Underwater realms would be alright when they have sorted out the problems with underwater combat. Having played WoW I came to hate the underwater zones, the maps just never worked.
Bamboo forest looks pretty good, it’d be a great change of pace based on what we already seen so far
Two words…
Cantha
&
Elona

Forcing people to party for exploration is a bad idea. Dungeons are bad enough in that you have to find a group. I could understand forcing a party for dungeons but not for exploration. I personally hate group/party gated content. People can still interact with whoever they want. Nothing is stopping you from trying to interact with other players to form a party. Hell, a good player party is most likely better than having heroes anyways. I just prefer to have some npc’s than some incompetent pug, mind you. Hero system is needed.
here we go…. another Cantha fanfare thread in disguise.
There was only one zone tileset style from that campaign I ever wanna see again… it was that area just outside the big horrible ugly Maze of a city… Ahhh what was that area called, there was a big section of caves with Yetis and a Waterfall in the middle and the paths Split between the Kurzick and Luxon areas. Really pretty area, was also where you got 2 of the best DeadlyArts & SpiritWeapon support skills in the entire game.
Cantha and Elona were mighty nice – maybe something Myan or Aztec based, or perhaps something with an Angkorian period architectural style…
