Guild Wars 2

I’d prefer monthly. I think that Anet would have more time to polish things and overall give better quality content without potentially overworking themselves if they slowed their speed by half. And 4 weeks is still short enough to keep most people’s interests, allowing folks to go at LS achievements at their own pace, and also do some non-LS stuff without risking sacrificing LS-stuff.

Only exception to the rule should be holiday stuff, which unless there’s a plot going on like Halloween (which seems to be the only one with its own plot) can be mostly the same as previous years.

1 month or 2 weeks? I would vote for neither.

What we need is 1 expansion.

It’s time we get some real content, real story, and real new flare added to this game.

Neither, as I would prefer a 3 month development cycle. My preference would be that they emulate delivering an expansion, but do it over time. This would mean a new main story arc, new territory opening up, expansion of old characters, new characters, etc. I really don’t want events at all.

2 weeks is too short as they only have a month time to actually work on it. That means no large expansions from that team. If they did a event every month with couple of weeks overlapping (if the story permits), it would give their design teams more time to actually come up with additions to the game.
So far the only additions to the game has been the Southshore and Fractals. Would love to see larger and more numerous dungeons and more public dungeons (also larger).
Have found two event activated public dungeons so far, and both have been fun. Too bad they are so short.

2 months, and permanent content.

1 month if that’s the only choice.
2-3 if I can make a wish. That would be enough to roll something well planned, written and not so painfully generic as it is now.

+1 for that.

2 weeks.
I prefer having some new content spread out instead of having it pushed out in a big lump and then being completed within a week and then have to wait for yet another month.

Well, both are good.
Two weeks = normal content | | One month = larger content
That’s how i see it. Or, that’s how it should be …
Permanent content isn’t an option, that means Tyria isn’t going to be so “alive” …

One Month. Flame and Frost was IMO the best content we’ve had so far. It progressed well, was relatively well polished, and gave us time to spend our days doing other progression if we wanted. It just felt more realistic.

Alas, Chris Whiteside basically reaffirmed in that Collaborative Development thread that ANet is committed to the 2 week release schedule, so there’s little chance of them going back to a monthly/bimonthly release schedule, barring some major change in affairs. (He did soften his stance a few posts later, saying that if it REALLY falls flat, then of course ANet will re-evaluate things, but for now, they want to continue with the 2 week releases.)
