Guild Wars 2

Anyone has this on their wishlist for the 1st Anniversary for GW2 in about 3 months time?

My Wishlist:
#1. Expansion Pack
#2. Updates all the Legendaries looks effects better
#3. 10000 GOLD!

Don’t see an expansion pack coming this soon.. but if there was one in the future..

Optimized engine, clearer smoother graphics.
Huge bug fixes, several hundred little/quirky/annoying/tiny issues.
20+ new character options in creation. Faces, hair, colors etc.
New gem store skins, wide variety.
Revamped dungeon content, several new dungeons with unique mechanics.
Revamped dragon bosses as well as several new dragons.
2 new continents to explore.
Combat fixes acrossed the board.
Balancing fixes.
Entirely underwater area discoverable with quests and underwater city.
New weapons, armor, weapon types-2 handed and more.
Class skills updated, new skills swapping ability in the main 1-5 bar.
Combo fields revamped, made more interesting.
Skills revamp- skill animations overhaul to look more unique and fluid.
New boosts in gem store- XP boost for ALL xp gained. Influence Boost individual boost.
New guild missions involving new content.
Guilds UI enhanced to show last log in, as well as various calendar options and events UI.
Performance fixes, no culling, optimized for smoother gaming.
Enhanced character models.
Better “Nighttime” enhancements, night will now look more interesting and amazing.
All clipping fixed of models, also moving textures like flags, armor etc will now flow naturally instead of looking stuff or hardened.
sPvP balancing/wvw balancing additional content added- lands/areas/special monsters.
Named monsters added to every zone, made interesting(not impossible) and fun to kill with decent and unique reward.
More bank tabs added to gem store.
Guild rename ticket.
Creator names on legendary weapons.
Legendary armor + ^.
Hundreds of new in game skins added, Tier 1 v2, Tier 2 v2, Tier 3 v2, added to cultural sets.
New dungeon armor added with new skins.
You can now transmute PVP skins onto PVE skins.
In game surveys, sometimes with small rewards. For feedback and events.
New quests added for new fun consumables.
The guy who says “I’m rich you know.” Can now be mugged once every 20 minutes per server for 5 silver.

Thats all I got so far.

I know its wishful thinking but I wish that all weapons were usable by all classes. It would open up gameplay a lot more and give more options for both pvp and pve.

And before people start saying it doesn’t make sense, I might as well say the current set up doesn’t make sense either. Thieves can shoot shortbows but not longbows? Rangers can’t use a rifle? Warriors can use a rifle and not a pistol? Engineers…well yea can barely use anything so. Anyway you get my point, but like I said wishful thinking.

How about they fix their current game before adding any expansions to it? Too many bugs they still need to fix. Mainly traits and skills.

Now that is what I call an expansion- I’d buy it in a heartbeat, good job

My eta for an expansion is no less than a year. Anet already has stated they have planned out the living story up until hmm december or jan I think.

The first expansion for Guild Wars 1 was a year after release and the second one 6 months later. If I remember right, they said they didn’t want to release expansions as fast for this game.

Personally, I hope they release an expansion at a year after release, but I suspect it will be closer to 18 months.

Edit: I’m sure you have read this, but adding it anyway. ^^

On friday NCSoft held its quarterly financial conference call, and while answering to the question from an investor the company’s Managing Direcor Nah Seong Chan had something to say about an upcoming expansion for Guild Wars 2.

“We Are Preparing an Expansion pack, but in terms of when we will actually launch it, it’s something that we’re still monitoring the situation on.”

“We’re looking at the performance of the game and deciding when it would be the best time to do the launch, and that’s still something we’re thinking about.”

I hope for
-GvG
-New skills (And maybe selecting different skills for the weapon-slots, too)
-A hard mode for dungeons with a new boss for each one and rare dropping items (they should drop in the normal mode too, but are easier to get in the hard mode. That’d be the best solution)
-More armor skins (also for lower levels)
-House building & Guild Hall building (Let’s craft, buy stuff for karma, gold, laurels, WvWvW marks or even fractal marks… and rare monster drops. Getting nice decorative items from many different system will be very motivating to play those)
-More faces/Hair styles or ears for asura and horns/fur patterns for Charr.
-New fractals
-Maybe new world bosses
-Consequences when a world boss event fails (Army attacking a city, waypoints unusable in the map etc.) that’d be awesome, but I doubt It’d happen ^^"

These are my most important points.
And …Just a dream but I’d wish the Tengu, which already had concept arts for how they can look in varied shapes, would become a playable race .v.

More bad events, more awful updates and most important, more awful living story,

You’re in luck. They’ve got this one covered!

1. Remove gem store from gw2

2. add 300 new utilities for each class (yes, that’s right, 300!), let us use much more weapons with each class, let us use spear on land and most importantly as i’ve said that 1 million times, let us swap skills on weapons and i want many to chose from, not freaking 2 or three…

dude you crazy… living story is AMAZING for rpg standards cough cough

Í could make a very long list but I’ll just add a few here:

1. More permanent armour and weapon skins.
2. Fixing culling.
3. More PvP maps.
4. Making open world zones cross-realm.
I know that cross-realm zones have ruined a lot in WoW, but with the way GWII works I think that the outcome would be positive.
5. More soundtracks, preferably tavern soundtracks.
6. Being able to costumize my UI.

I doubt we’ll be seeing an xpac in 2013. They are still releasing ascended gear. Since the xpac would make all that ascended gear obsolete with its raised level cap, I can’t see them releasing it halfway through releasing the gear in the first place :-P

If I had to guess, I’d figure they’ll probably finish releasing all of ascended gear by early 2014, then drop the expansion shortly after to give everyone time to grind grind grind those last couple of pieces out before obsoleting it and having everyone start over.

I have 8 professions at level 80. If I buy ascended jewelry with laurels only its going to take me two and one-half years to finish. Some of my guild members haven’t even gotten one piece yet. I would hope that ascended gear is optional and not required for any expansion. If its required because of a higher level cap and its the new level 90 or 100 gear, they should let people know now and make it easier to get.

Why some people here mention the expansion pack needs to add gears instead of adding the lore of the next area?
