What I want in the future of this game
This could be a chain of others to join in to see what they want from Guild Wars 2. Here is my list:
- I want to be able to at least duel somewhere with other players of same realm.
- I want to be alerted in chat when my guildmates come online.
- I want to know when my guildmates go offline.
- I want it to alert me somehow when a friend comes on and off line.
- I want guild housing like daoc had but even better.
- Remember the catacombs in daoc? I want something like that. Implement where it opens up to the winning realm for getting better loot.
- I want mounts. Let’s destroy all waypoints or most of them.
- More mini pets
- 2 handed axe.
That’s all I can think of for now. Excellent game none-the-less. Keep up the great work!
Nice list. Realistic goals, i like em, and i want em.
2 handed axe. Oh sweet lord, please Anet!

You have an option to turn on an alert for when friends sign on and off.
You can already enable showing when friends come online or go offline. Unless you mean specific friends, in which case it would be neat to be able to group friends into different custom categories; like WvW, Dungeons, etc, etc.
New weapons, always a plus!
Other than that, I’m not a fan of mounts so I hope those don’t enter the realm of GW2 unless its purely cosmetic and doesn’t provide any speed boost or flying capabilities.

As much as I like mounts, it won’t be happening sorry
I do like them as well. except i would like housing like Rift, best housing yet in any mmo.
- fishing with props (tent, camp fire, parasol, chair, buckets of lures) recipes, bloated fish with goodies inside like rare gems and boon potions that time forgot, grey items that sell for many gold pieces like 1,5,10,15,20, – fun fishing outfits both crafted and sold in the BLTP
- switchable outfitter slots that hold the outfit taking it out of the inventory
- housing like Rifts/LOTRO
- a small button for minis on the bar
- 25% run speed boost on all the time for engineers
- sniper kit as a better Rifle option
- I too would love the notification of a friend coming on and offline, but put it in a window that sticks to the top of the chat window so that it’s not cluttering up chat when this occurs.
- more metas many many more metas
- removal of DR at least until someone can get a handle on these bugs. ( permaDR accountwide, chests disappearing from boss/dragon fights, no loot from vets/champs, and grey loot from the wooden chests when they appear)

There’s very little I miss from LOTRO, but my house and decorations is one of them. I’d definitely love some form of customizable housing in this game, though I’d prefer it if the decorations and furnishings could be acquired in the game itself through playing as opposed to something bought exclusively from the gems store.
- I want Fishing in GW2, it would make it more imersive.
- More Social Stuff, there are some huge issues with the social aspect, as for grouping, have a easy connect and easy to play with friends.
- In the Social Side, Housing System, may be guild, but when I don’t want to be killing things I get pretty limited finding some other things to do.
- Notifications and Invites to Friends! For example in WvW or PVP there should be more automated things to alert friends and make easier them to join us, it would expand the social side of the game.
- More sense in endgame gameplay, more objetives behind the grind for new gear.
- A more REWARDING PVE, in lower level maps, some major changes must come there to make a lvl 80 play in a lvl 15 area as it plays in a lvl 70, and be rewarded for it, at this momment the lower level zones are a waste of time in terms of: I would be doing something much better rewarding than this.
- The MINIs should have a fight minigame, something like Pokemon, for make sense collect them, it would be awesome and and good way for ANet profit in the Gem Store.
- Guild Vs Guild / Guild Halls as requested a million times already, guilds must be much more than the “G” key of our keyboard.
And yes, a faster and cheaper way to run to maps and go play with our friends, most people don’t do this at the momment because the waypoints costs.
Asura thing.
What I want to see in the near future is ArenaNet paying some serious attention to the thread I’ve linked below.
This bug or issue needs fixing as a priority. There was an ‘official’ reponse on this thread around 3 months ago and there’s been no further feedback since. Please, can one of you acknowledge that you understand that this is a serious problem and how it’s affecting basic gameplay.
We who have responded on the linked thread need to know that you know that we are suffering and that you ARE going to put our suffering to an end (sooner rather than later)!!!
Haha, yeah I run into accidentally targeting a few monsters everyday because of this. Its annoying, but more of a QoL thing than a bug IMO.

Its a shame that in the 15+ years of online rpg gaming that some of the most popular mechanics have not evolved for the better. When developers ever realize this, they will be rich!
A few of the most popular mechanics of old school rpg’s
—a meaningful, profitable, and fun crafting system
—customizable player housing
—customizable guild halls
—consensual anywhere in world pvp
—consensual anywhere in world guild vs guild battles
—lots of items in the game to play for
—new items added regularly to continue to play for.
I would also like to see all the things mentioned by the op!!
Someone already mentioned but I’d like Fishing too, NPCs fish everywhere, and we have deep waters in some places that could add interesting achievements.
I just like fishing!
