" To kick things off, we’ll be focusing on new PvP and WvW updates. We’ve planned our Competitive Week to coincide with the Guild Wars 2 International All-Stars Tournament "
" Living World Season 2 will be going on break for a while as we count down to the arrival of the September 2014 Feature Pack "
omg they are actually putting PVE on hold till a pvp/wvw focus patch to come out. I think they are finally serious about pvp. what do you guys think?
while it won’t change much for you it will change a lot for the competive playerbase which should have the top priority as gw2 is meant to be eSports.
real eSports -> big PvP playerbase -> more focus on PvP -> maybe a bigger PvP team -> more and faster features and updates
of course this doesn’t mean that i don’t want there to be more PvP stuff in this update
so i too hope that it’s not all even though it is already a lot.
personally i think we will get a new game mode.

I think the new tournament is a great idea if it gets new teams created and draws new people to the game.
The limiting factor to the success of this is the balance team. They will need to step up their game and release updates as needed vs waiting for a big release.
Destiny releases the same day of the feature pack for GW2. Pretty sure they released last feature pack the same time as another MMO release. So basically we have to wait for a big title to release before we see any new features added in-game? Kappa

Considering dragon age inquisition comes out later this year and the witcher 3 is next spring this idea fits pretty well into it.
Necros don’t have reflects, invulns, vigor, blocks,
extra dodges, real stability, mobility skills,
burst skills, sustain, or good support. GG ANET.

Single player RPG will only occupy a player 1 week~ 1 month worth of play time, so I don’t think it has anything to do with GW2.
One of polish fansites dedicated to GW2 made a post on facebook today that they’ve spoken with ArenaNet (they’ve already hosted give-away and similar events supported by ANet in the past) in form of interview.
“We spoke to Arena today (We’ll have interview tomorrow) and they haven’t told much yet. There will be new PvP mode, but they haven’t mentioned PvE. Questioned about Warrior’s nerf – they laughed.”

This please, half a year for tiny damage shaves is pitiful. Totally puts me off playing because why bother if you aren’t a hambow/zerk thief/decap/midbunker.
They also need to do largescale reworks of many specs, equal to the level of the warrior buff patch over a year ago. Yes, it’s true, warriors were almost non-existent in pvp before this – but making them into the ridiculous master of all trades/ Jack of none was stupid. That aside, other classes need reworking to bring specs like power necro, Mesmer anything into the scene.
And please, when we want buffs – we don’t mean introduce more mechanics to the taste of;
Prismatic understanding
Zerker Stance
Hammer
Healing signet
Lich form 1
Those were bad, they made the game experience much worse
