Guild Wars 2

Ok,I just had to write about this because I’m feeling slightly insane xD Has there been added more water around the Waterfall point in the Foefire map? Like when you approach it from Graveyard it looks like there’s LOTS of more water around the point.

Am I going insane after playing Stronghold or is this for real?

It has been there for a few days and I hope they will remove it.

It’s there. I was confused as well when I first saw it. I kinda like it.

I don’t want them to remove it. I like it a lot.

Well you aren’t known as “insane” seagull for nothing, I guess.

The only problem is that it hides animations. It might be pretty but it’s not better gameplay wise.

it looks… weird. I’m not sure if I like it, but at the same time I don’t see it as a “must revert” change. I’ll probably get used to it with time.

It seems so random to improve a small part of a map like this.

if i were a betting man i’d say it was result of updating other code. HoT is in the jungle, maybe they updated their waterfall graphic/code and propagated that to the current game’s waterfalls.

tbh i haven’t actually seen it, so i don’t know what i’m talking about, but explaining things u have no understanding of is what the internet is all about

I love it and hope they continue updating the maps graphically. It’s a nice touch after 2 years ish.

It definitely looks like the wrong texture or alpha is being used over the water there for sure.

2 patches ago, the water looked like clear water. people complained about that for a long while. In the last patch the water finally got removed and there was no more water at legacy waterfall, and foefire (near Mine point).

and now in this patch, the water is back, but it looks like rapid water. and the best part about it, is that it hides necro marks, portals, refuges, blinding powders, basically everything. I feel sorry for anyone that doesnt use in game sounds, because a portal in the water is basically impossible to see : D

Noticed there’s also clearly much,much more water at the Forest map near the Mine/Svanir lol. I like it too and I hope it stays. I wish they would add more visual updates as well though,because as it was mentioned a couple of replies up it feels so random to just update that minor thing.
