So any plans to bring Guild Wars 2 to the WiiU?

I remember talk about this game coming to consoles.

The WiiU with its new launch hype on the way seem like the perfect fit.

Also the Touch Screen would add well to the MMO gameplay.

Chatting would be easier, and also action mapping would be easier.

Guild Wars 2 has no business being on consoles.

Good games are made for the PC and ONLY the PC.

They mentioned they have a small team investigating the possibility of consoles. It was never set in stone. I honestly don’t see it happening for more reasons that I care to list.

This is an extremely closed-minded viewpoint. You’re missing out on a lot of amazing games.

Not entirely true. Certain games are better made on PC, while others on certain console. It also comes to the individual preference.

I’m only responsible for what I say, not for what you understand.

So I guess games like Borderlands 2 suck? According to you anyway.

Two of the best games ever were Xbox games… And three more were N64 games…

Console games just don’t have the computing power and dedicated graphics to do this game and alot of other PC games justice.

They can actually do quite well if the developers know how to optimize properly. Unfortunately, in GW2, this is not the case.

There are several things that really make MMO’s on a console a problem though:

a) a keyboard, its simply not possible to communicate with people as quickly using a console letter select compared to a keyboard (and not everybody has voicechat).

b) hardware resources, an mmo often uses a lot of RAM and (for some reason I still don’t understand) console makers refuse to bung 2GB+ in a machine which is why most console games have fairly small maps to offset this issue. Well, as you’ve noticed, guild wars doesn’t have small maps…

c) fairness. This mainly applies to PvP/WvW but using a mouse and keyboard to move/turn is faster than a controller and there have even been studies showing the difference in FPS (admittedly less so in GW but would still be an issue).

Now a) and c) could be mitigated by using a keyboard and mouse accessory but at that point, you may as well just use a PC (and point b) will never be fixed until console makers put better hardware in their boxes).
