Guild Wars 2

I seem to notice a few patterns of people who are against the LS and gem store and te way the game is going. I’ve been playing since GW1 and honestly, out of all the MMO’s out there i don’t see a difference in our LS and any other game with the patched added content, plenty of games add content every so often like that, be it temporary or not, big or small. This is something that keeps the game form going completely stale. Also people might be saying that the LS is just a way to push gem store items and pushing the micro-transactional sales and looking to make money. First of all, almost every game out there anymore has a micro-transaction economy, and even more so when it’s a no subscription game, and it’s even worse when a game does have a Premium membership program. Difference in our cash shop i will call it. Is that first of all, there is no requirement at all to do anything with it to play the game, it’s mostly cosmetics and boosters, also if they were pushing so hard to make the sale on gem shops, why would they make it so you can trade your in game currency for it? especially after they released the very farm heavy champ chests. That’s something else people have a problem with, The heavy zerg farming and zerg rushing events, stop blaming developers for that and blame ourselves for that kind of thing, because you don’t need to zerg rush anything in this game accept to face off against another zerg. every event That I have seen 50 people mash up on i have done tactfully with 10 or fewer, including taking on scarlets knights. I have slapped my banners on SM with as few as three people, mind you it takes quite a bit more effort, but it’s entirely do able and honestly, more fun anyway. I understand the frustrations that come with bugs, new patches, and failing events. But there is no solid evidence that this is a bad game, just a lot of bad mouths. and when it comes to the player organization, especially in chains of commanders and zergs and such, to many chiefs, not enough indians. the only validity in trying to down this game is that I too, hope for an actual true expansion at some point, be it new class, new race, or new continent, it would definitely be a good hook to bring people back to the game. Now, that seems to me that the anticipation in waiting for that, is a real cash push, not the gem store.

I love the PvP systems in place, WvW is great and sPvP is loads of fun. But I miss having guild rankings and battling in our guild halls (hoping to see halls too). I think that their could be a lot of potential reward and growth for influence as well as other guild buffs for being a high ranking guild just like there is for doing well in WvW, but maybe on a different scale of some form. As well as with all the siege that WvW has having straight up guild battles for attacking and defending guild keeps would be a lot of fun. Like imagine starting up a match where you are assaulting a single keep with a few supply posts while the enemy guild does everything they can to keep your guild out and then winning these kinds of battles would give rewards for you guild hall. Something like successful sieges on other guilds would give you more workers or treasures and points to spend on upgrading your home hall. and successful defenses to keep those upgrades or even boost the abilities of NPC guards or just keeping your keep defended over time will just keep the upgrades coming. I don’t know but i think their can be a lot to gain from implementing GvG again.

Completely for open world duals. Just not in cities.
