To be honest, I’d like some new renown hearts for the expansion as well as map completion rewards for 100% completion of the map.
There wasn’t any of this for the Silverwastes, or Dry Top and I was kind of disappointed in that regard (but the areas are still fun).
I haven’t been able to play the beta weekends yet (was at Defcon during the first one), but I hope there’s some of this stuff during the beta weekend event this weekend. I’d love to see this again.
Please lord no.
Actually I really don’t care, if thats your thing then all the power to you.
I have 8 80’s, played since beta and still can’t bring myself to do map completion.

It would be nice if they add map completion rewards, but please don’t bring back Hearts. Orr did just fine with map completion and no Hearts.

Back in the day there used to be over 600 heart quests, now it’s half, don’t expect any new ones :’)
I love map completion and I agree with you that it is a pity that the new zones can not be completed in the same way as old zones, however hearts have no place in the new zones. Hearts weren’t meant to be in the game at all (because of dynamic events), however from testing Anet learnt that people needed the guidance hearts provide. The idea is that in high level zones (such as Orr, Dry Top and Southsun Cove) people have learnt to focus on events instead of hearts making hearts redundant in those areas.

Really? I thought they’d added some, not removed them (although I wasn’t watching the numbers, it just felt like more recent characters had to do more hearts than the last time I did completion like 2 years ago)
I’m doing completion for only the second time and hearts make me want to claw my eyes out.

According to the wiki
The number of hearts shown on map varied during beta:
: Beta Weekend Event 1 — 232 renown hearts
: Beta Weekend Event 2 — 265 renown hearts
: Beta Weekend Event 3 — 300 renown hearts
: August 2nd stress test — 301 renown hearts
: August 9th stress test — 302 renown hearts
: August 15th stress test — 301 renown hearts
Currently, map completion requires finishing 303 hearts.

Lol no. Did you even play ‘back in the day’?

Edit: I should’ve scrolled down further instead of instantly replying to that stupid post, someone beat me to it.
Check movies from Gamescom 2010 and 2011, there used to be over 600 hearts
Only if there is more challenging mobs in the open world.
I cannot stand the monotony of how every mob is so boring.

The game didn’t exist in 2010 or 2011, so no, there didn’t “use to be over 600 hearts”.

GW2 has existed in some form since 2007 when development changed from GW: Utopia to GW: EotN & GW2. By 2010 & 2011 GW2 was far along in development.
This poster is indicating that when people went into the old map screen during those events, the map progress thingy showed 600 or more hearts. I dunno if it’s true but it seems possible.
