Lack of transparency

Anyone else finding the absolute and complete lack of any transparency from ArenaNet a little disconcerting?

No reason listed for any of the odd changes in patch notes at all. Is there some sort of policy I missed with ArenaNet that they can’t detail why things are being done? I know it’s not an NCSoft thing this time because Aion and Lineage get detailed patch notes with reasons for those particular changes listed (and especially with Aion, there’s usually a lot of GM chatter on the forums regarding specific changes and their reasoning)

Resident smug Englishman on the NA servers, just because.

I agree, the lack of transparency makes us feel like Anet has been on a sabbatical for the first part of the last year. They currently have a CDI on Guild Halls while mentioning they are just thinking about it… The question is: What have they been doing this pass year if it’s not Guild Halls and GvG? We haven’t seen a new WvW or PvP map either. We got a tiny bit of a PvE explorable region (it is beautiful, agreed) and then they are taking a break again. …While throwing us at another WvW tournaments with unbalanced matchups, because WvW server population still account for PvE servers population, and Megaservers are just really a seemless guesting system.

At this pace it would have taken 50 years to develop Guild Wars 2. It sure doesn’t feel like there is more than 25 people working on this game at the moment.

All my friends are getting bored at the lack of new PvP and WvW content. A simple announcement of what is coming would keep them here.
