January update
No. Patience…patience…
All they have posted about those updates is that they aren’t putting any new zones or professions in, but are going to work on the current zones and core game. They also said we should be hearing their plans in a few weeks.
Any news on what it will be or any guesses
I hope mounts
They also said we should be hearing their plans in a few weeks.
Well I would hope so……in a few weeks January will be over.
And it will probably never be mounts…..ever.
Things I hope to see:
-Legendary Precursor partial work (or promise of it being next month)
-Lodestone cost addressed [preferably using dungeon tokens as a form of acquiring]
-SEVERAL warrior bugs addressed
-Warrior Burst skills actually being useful (Yes I play warrior 99% of the time, I’m bias....)
- Previewing items in the TP
-Alternative means to acquire Ectoplasm Globs
just a few off the top of my head… We’ve been promised a HUGE content patch though- so it may just be content and not addressing various bugs or problems or features that are missing. Regardless they’ve stated this is what they’re considering a “Free Expansions worth of content.” -For their sake I hope they don’t let us down… regardless I’ll still enjoy the game and play it- others though tend to get antzy with those words :/
Edit:
Ya- Mounts are a NEVER- the game isn’t designed with the concept at all and fast travel is significantly better means of transportation (besides 99% of the time you can have a swiftness buff up)
Warrior Burst skills actually being useful (Yes I play warrior 99% of the time, I’m bias….)
Um….You’ve never heard of hundred blades or eviscerate have you?
I still don’t see why people wants mounts.
I would like to see something done with legendary weapons. I don’t want to really spend all the time and money for a unicorn weapon either. I also want bigger player cap dungeons that are actually a challenge. I’m tired of all this skipping and tunnel vision bosses in this game.
I don’t know, I’m not getting my hopes up too much. I am excited to see what they are going to do though.
And it will probably never be mounts…..ever.
We already have a mount. The witchs broom is nothing more than a totaly cosmetic mount :P
And it will probably never be mounts…..ever.
Probably a good thing. With the amount of culling in this game, all that would amount to is a bunch of characters doing gangnam style on the screen cuz their mounts won’t load on your screen.
I hope mounts are never added. I’d rather they just locked you in the room with the boss in dungeons so you can’t graveyard zerg it. (like in fractals)
no i don’t want to be locked in with a boss
On mounts: The game doesn’t need mounts at all. The zones (or areas if you prefer) are far too small, there are way points everywhere and there are too many load screens. Also the culling like mentioned before.
For this month, I really hope they are optimizing the game to perform better for large scale battles (dragons & wvwvw for example) and areas that have a dense player base (LA) and fixing some of the glaring bugs.

Hello everyone.
There is already another bigger thread in this same subforum that deals with this issue: check the following link. You will find more information about the January update as Colin Johanson did post inside.
We lock now this thread. Thanks for your understanding.
