Guild Wars 2

The current way that changing the Guild Message of the Day works is clunky and needs some updating. The issues and fixes as I see them are below.

Major issues:

1. The edit box that pops up does not include the current MotD. This makes it far more difficult to make minor changes than it needs to be. You currently either have to completely retype the message or have it saved in a separate file which you can copy and paste from.
2. The edit window appears over the current MotD and cannot be moved in order to view it.
   Suggested change: Include the current MotD in the edit window.

Minor issues:

1. Line breaks do not appear in the edit window until you continue typing after pressing enter.
2. Text in the edit window is left justified, while the completed MotD is center justified.
   Suggested change: Show line breaks as they are made and center justify the text in the edit window or left justify the final MotD.

I was having the exact same issues recently. It seems to be an issue with the recent couple WHQL certified NVIDIA drivers (possibly limited to 400 series cards as that is what we’re both using). The issue appears to have been fixed after updating to the most recent beta driver 313.96 found here.

Feedback on phase 3 battle:

Liked:
- Forcing the Ancient Karka back to its nest. Knocking the tree over, shooting rocks, the landslide, and the explosive gas were all interesting mechanics and were a lot of fun. If there was more of that kind of stuff and less of the reinforcement wave stuff I would have 100% loved this section of the event (see dislikes).
- The actual battle with the Ancient Karka. It was fun, had a neat ending cinematic, and great rewards.

Disliked:
- Reinforcement waves. They took far too long to complete and it just ended up feeling like a grind. If they took about 1/3-1/2 of the time that they did, I think they would have been okay. The mortars at Fort Karka were a good start to decrease the monotony, but it wasn’t enough.
- Setting the explosives. This probably would have been okay if the number of enemies were reduced by around 1/3-1/2 and if the enemies weren’t invisible half the time. As it was, it felt more like a battle of attrition than anything else. It didn’t help that the Veteran and Champion Karkas spewed so much AoE that there were times when there really wasn’t any safe place to stand within reach.

Overall: 7/10 I enjoyed the event overall, but some of the aspects of it detracted from what was otherwise a well thought out chain.
