Guild Wars 2

Why am I stuck in queue for EB for 30-60 minutes and then seeing 5 people running around our first keep doing nothing but killing PvE mobs and collecting crafting nodes?

I understand you want some NPCs hanging around camps and inside keeps, but it shouldn’t be littered with panthers and moas that people can farm for xp and loot

wow this is the sort of communication people love thank you Mike!

I think it was Colin who stated in an earlier interview (during development) that people should never have to leave WvW if they don’t want to. Do you feel that you’ve met this goal so far (or was it a misinterpretation on my part)?

You’re welcome! Things have been really busy around here since we shipped, and that’s a big reason why we haven’t had a chance to communicate nearly as much as we’d like to, so we’re trying to make an effort to change that. We want to talk to you just as much as you want us to tell you stuff

As far as being able to play just in WvW and never have to leave if they don’t want to, that most definitely is our goal, and I think we’ve done a fairly good job at that so far. We do need to make sure ascended gear is obtainable in WvW, but other than that I think we’ve mostly made it so you never have to leave WvW if you just want to play there forever. Feel free to point out why I’m wrong about that

this is why they are there. so you never have to leave WVW.

WvW was never intended to be a pure PvP zone. I leveled 3 of my characters there but I still needed those drops along the way to pay for everything and as one other thread here has said, WvW is a Poor Mans Game.

Nope. They’re useful…. Not only as a resource but sometimes as a snare … Slowing down you, if you fail to avoid them, or, even better —-your enemy.

out of all the things that are questionable in this game, this is what you choose to complain about? really?
