Guild Wars 2

I am playing this game with a satellite connection so it’s impossible for me to get less then 600-700ms of latency. In general I don’t have much problem in jumping puzzles because all my action are instant for me (in reality every movements take 1 second to be register). In combat, I have to predict 1 second in advance what the enemy will do. Most of the time it is luck who will decide of my faith and especially in pvp. It is not possible for me to get a better connection because I live too far from the areas where cable connection is provided.

I saw in some demo videos that you need to press a button to deploy the glider. If it work like jumping or moving it won’t be a problem. If not, I surely hope that the contents they will give us will be forgiving.

Somehow I think they will do some cool things like mix bouncing mushrooms and gliding to reach hard-to-reach areas. Mushrooms will also be I problem for me since when I use any kind of leaping skills or those steam pads in aetherblade JP, I teleport everywhere (in z axis) and get stuck in the air sometime for a small moment.

I am just asking/hoping that my connection won’t keep me from achieving everything in the expansion (contents and achievements).

What’s the purpose of this post? there is nothing devs or we can do to your bad internet, get a better one.

At least read the whole thing before replying. What I was asking for is that the deployment of the glider would not be affected by latency.

If I fall and it takes 1 second for the game to tell me that I can deploy the glider and another second before I can trigger it because of my latency it will be a total of 2 seconds where I cannot do anything but fall…

I am also worried about this, as GW2 is HORRIBLE when it comes to things like Sanctum Sprint, Dragonball, etc for Oceanic players. If the same mechanics are used in HoT, Oceanic players are screwed.

Also Ride the Lightning and Burning Retreat are hilariously crap for Oceanic players.

yes in fact the gliders are tied to the jump button. just press jump when you’ve fallen a certain distance and it will deploy. (right now it’s about when you start screaming, they hope to make it earlier.)
