Guild Wars 2

How many chance we have for some great game changer features on the next patch?
Is this only a story patch or will contain some new way to play this game? Like new skill, new weapons, new traits, new classes?

I’m bored, Anet give me some new reasons to give you my money….

Anet already told us they only plan to do feature patches once every 6 months. They want to keep content and feature patches separate. Don’t expect any new skills, traits, classes, game modes, etc any time soon.

If you are confused about the difference between a feature and content, a feature is something like the wardrobe system, banks, the account wallet, different game modes, etc. Content is stuff you spend time playing, such as dungeons, quests, personal story instances, dynamic events, etc. Features are things that enhance or make the gameplay better. Content is the stuff you do while engaging in gameplay.

The source for your statements is? Just random comment based on your speculation and old releases, or a interview with some dev? If it is from a interview can you post the link plz?

It’s not sarcasm i’m serious.

I think it was mentioned in other articles around the release fo the last feature pack but this is the first one I found – it’s mentioned in the last paragraph.

“We’re probably going to continue with that approach, because so far we’ve been very happy with it,” says Cartwright. "We’ll continue to monitor how well that’s received, how well that works, and if splitting those up was a good thing or not. I think as we move forward that’s our plan, is to continue along that pattern of “here’s content; here’s a bunch of new quality of life features”, and keep that oscillating pattern going. As always, we’ll change our pattern if we don’t feel like it’s going right, but that’s our current thoughts at the moment.”

He talks about qol features, and is so vague that can be summarized with: “somewhere, someone, somehow, something”.

But ok, if this is all we have. My money will be safe for another 4 months or more.

If Arenanet can implement things like an new skill or a new weapon into the story in a plausible way we will see it. An example is the anti-toxin spray from season 1.
