Another FOV thread

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Aleglast.6027

Aleglast.6027

Hi,

I stopped playing GW2 because of an update 3 months ago or so. Just wanted to give some reasons and hear some opinions on these issues that made me quit:

1. FOV:
Said update broke the GW2 camera tool support [http://www.wsgf.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=24764]. I am aware that this is a third party tool, but i just could not stand the narrow FOV, so i risked using it. Without it, the game is simply UNPLAYABLE for me. (pls don’t reply about cheating/balance of fov tools: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/FOV-on-3-monitors-Demonstration)

2. PVP Modes:
I always hoped to get some more PvP modes. While i played mainly PvP (bear rank) and had fun in every battle, i always disliked the mode: capturing points. I understand that balancing becomes a big issue if more PvP modes are introduced. WvW was too messy for me, just not my taste, so no critic there. (BTW, why is this game named Guild Wars when there are actually no guild wars?)

3. Combat:
Combat was very fun at the Beginning, but as a big share of the player-base mastered most classes the combat felt more like a combo chain spam than tactical combat. Not that i couldn’t keep up with the average foe but i just didn’t feel like I’m having control anymore with all those conditions and combo fields procing at that massive rate. But i accept if most people don’t share this view, it also wasn’t game breaking for me like the FOV.

So that’s it, i logged in occasionally every 2 weeks to see if an update somehow made the fov-tool work again. If the FOV stays at that crap console value (60-70 horizontal at 16:9) i just can’t see my coming back.

Thanks for you time, i had a blast with this game.

no one cares about you quitting, no need to mention it on the forums.

Suggestion: Tonics for Combat

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Aleglast.6027

Aleglast.6027

I think its a fine idea but it would never work. A huge aspect of this game is determining what the other player is doing by their animation. If you had your set of skills on a cat there would be zero animations as it did damage. It would make everything you do almost impossible to dodge. ANd i dont think anet is willing to create every animation from every class and apply them to ever tonic lol.

However it might be fine to apply it to just PvE where no NPC really care about seeing your animations.

its called mystic forge, you need tons of sp for everything there, hence why they are not used anywhere else

Best and Worst of GW2 -- An Opinion

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Aleglast.6027

Aleglast.6027

One of my friends recently returned to the game. He’s treating it like Skyrim – wandering the open world, gathering, making his own quests and goals, finding loot, and hidden places. It’s all there. That’s one of the best things about this game – its open world. At 80, it really opens up for you. Craft special armor for yourself, find your own adventures. I only wish this game would add more content – the vanilla game was amazing and I still love coming to it. We’ll see with season two.

That my friend, is a perfect definition of how to enjoy this game. And if you ever get slightly bored you can just go have some epic battles in wvw or test your skills in pvp.

I need advice on Legendary and Precursors

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Aleglast.6027

Aleglast.6027

So I just started looking at the stuff involved in getting these things…
As someone who never has or will buy absolutely anything from Trading Post, my options for getting such things is either to craft, or Mystic Forge roulette.

So, which road would make more sense for me, a casual player? Again, as far as materials go I play this game exclusively on drops/chests/etc.

Thanks for your time.

Tp, everything on the tp is how i am doing it, only need 30% map comp for my legendary now. Trying to get the precursor from the mystic toilet is completely pointless dont bother.

The Gold/Gem ratio

in Black Lion Trading Co

Posted by: Aleglast.6027

Aleglast.6027

There is nothing to fix because nothing is broken.

You can still get the same 1600 gems for $20 that you could when the game launched.

First of all, thats not playing the game. That is supporting the downfall of the game.

Secondly, those 20 dollar get you much more gold now. That is a problem.

Thats a problem? rewarding people who support the game? how is giving the company money supporting its downfall? are you insane? do you think about these things before you wright them?

The Gold/Gem ratio

in Black Lion Trading Co

Posted by: Aleglast.6027

Aleglast.6027

Seriously guys, how is this supposed to get fixed?
Gold-gem ratio has reached around 12g, last time I remember it was around 9g and even that was pretty high because further before it was around 5g.

I’m seriously concerned about this, it can’t be overlooked by Anet.
The option to get gems with gold is one of the key differences that set GW2 apart from most games with in-game shops, but if the price keep raising, we could reach even 20g or 30g for 100 gems at this point, and not so far in the future.

This would completely kill the reason this feature was added, and then, would somehow “force” players to actually spend real money on the game because otherwise the alternative would be farm big amounts of gold (for the average player 20g is huge, don’t forget this is a casual players game). The choice to farm or spend would just become illusory and fake then.

I’m perfectly aware that Anet is trying to solve the problem by encouraging players to spend real money on gems to balance the exchange ratio, but this system has shown its problem: if there are no more buyers than converters, the ratio doesn’t drop (correct me if I guessed wrong).

So how do we solve this?
I proposed some time ago to set a gold cap for conversions, something like 10g for 100 gems, so for buying let’s say a piece of armor, you would still have to spend 80g, which is not that low (and not everybody are flippers).
Of course I don’t know if it’s a good solution, but at least it’s a proposition.

Everything you get on the gem store is cosmetic and has no real in-game value, anet does not care if you have it or not, and nor should they. People who spend real money on gems and support this game should have cool stuff that people who dont pay cant get. The fact that you want to be rewarded for giving anet nothing confounds me, the fact that they allow you to buy gems in the first place is already extremely generous, dont push for more.

There is no counter to stealth

in Profession Balance

Posted by: Aleglast.6027

Aleglast.6027

No other glass/zerk build can have such absurd survivability and escape tools purely due to stealth.

Number 1: Absurd survivability!!! what? there stealth is the only thing that keeps them playable, otherwise their survivability is pretty dang low, with stealth it is average.

Number2: Have you played any other class? Mesmer has great survivability not because of stealth, but because she can create five clones of herself, necro has basically 2 lives, warrior guardian and a few others can stun the kittent out of you. The theif’s survivability can only match those of the warrior necro or mesmer if they are played my incredible theif players. Check your info pal.

Posted by: Aleglast.6027

Aleglast.6027

Please balance stealth with thieves and mesmers, as there is currently no counter-play to it. Especially with thieves because they can basically escape from ANY situation and always come back for the kill. Stealth lets them dictate when and where fights happen which, when combined with their absurd burst/CC and guaranteed blind-stomps (or stealth-stomps), makes them them the only glassy build worth playing. Mesmers can also sit in stealth while AI does all the work for them.

No other glass/zerk build can have such absurd survivability and escape tools purely due to stealth.

I found the best counter ever, stomp them in the face. But seriously, through some chains on them and auto attack the kitten out of them. throw some aoe and chills, all of that is even overkill, and you will kill the theif

Critical conditions....a suggestion

in Profession Balance

Posted by: Aleglast.6027

Aleglast.6027

Conditions that crit would be a great idea. This could make condition more viable, reduce the current problems with conditions and make them more interesting.

Allow conditions to crit just like normal attacks, but instead of double damage (much more data to keep track of) it could just add 2 stacks instead of 1 (same effect but much less computing power required).

In order to compensate you would need to reduce the damage formulas for conditions to keep overall dps the same.

The effects would be two fold:

1. Makes condition builds more interesting and brings them up to the correct DPS levels in PvE.

2. Reduces the problem of tanky condition users in PvP and WvW. Right now you can get 90% of the dps and 100% of the tankyness of a power/tank build by using dire gear since conditions currently only depend on condition damage stat to calculate damage. By reducing the base damage of conditions and making crits matter you make reduce tanky condition users damage while increasing the damage of “glass cannon” condition users.

This would bring balance to conditions in WvW, increase their viability in PvE, and change nothing in PvP.

You my friend, get a gold star. You just made sense out of everything i was thinking.

@OP

Agree that condi is weak for some parts of the game. However, they are very very strong in other parts (like small scale WvW and PvP). If even one of the ideas in the OP post gets implemented, it would completely push all builds that are not condi out of the meta for those areas (which is already happening… especially in small scale WvW).

In short… your ideas make condi builds overwhelmingly strong in the areas where they are currently strong and does not help in the slightest in areas where they are lacking (PVE).

For example, you said, “your solution strikes me as a poor one”, this is derogatory, you could have said, your solution does not seem viable, your solution in my opinion would never work, your solution presents problems, your solution, im afraid, could never work (reasons why it wouldnt).

“your solution strikes me as a poor one” sounds to me like hes saying that your ideas are a bad fit for the current problem…

on the other hand, “your solution in my opinion would never work” sounds like someone politely saying “I think you’re dumb” :x there are cultural implications to how people phrase things and we are a pretty international community… maybe you’re reading too deeply into what people are saying?

with that said, your solution strikes me as a poor one :P

Emi

If you open up your eyes and read his whole post i believe you will find that he was not making the slightest effort to be polite. “Your solution in my opinion would never work” does not imply anything about the creator of the idea, only the idea itself, it does not hurt or damage the person saying it, it just says that the idea wouldnt work, try a new one. I use that phrase when i dont agree with someone and i have never once received a negative response.

Aleglast.6027

Another side to this issue is that the limitation on the current Condition Damage situation is likely due to the limited resources of available computing per zone. The current method used to represent Condition Damage requires non-trivial computing resources to keep up with and those resources are needed for EVERY condition stack that exists on every player and AI enemy in the entire zone. Thus, they have to limit each condition stack so as not to consume the limited computing resources available.

If there was some way to allow for some BONUS direct damage to be added to a maxed condition damage stack (with minimal additional computing needed) when additional conditions would normally be applied, that might help, but it would need to be carefully balanced so that it does NOT become OP or abusable by the general player base.

Currently, Condition Damage is quite powerful if speced correctly and used by one or maybe 2 teammates (so I’m not quite sure how the OP thinks Condition Damage is not good in PvP, one of the few places in the game it can be used effectively). Once you get it into a situation with multiple players applying the same conditions to the same foe, it rapidly looses all effectiveness.

I had a nice long reply for you but my comp decided to be dumb and lost it so for now ill just say thanks for the reply, some nice stuff to chew on.

are you a troll?

No need to be rude

It’s a legit question.

The OP already insisted on another thread today that he KNOWS that there will be a new race made available when LS S2 starts on July 1, so pretty much all of his posts are now subject to extra scrutiny.

Anyways I dont want this to be an argument, if you have a positive oppinion to share, share it. if you have a negative oppinion to share, dont. just say, I disagree.

Lol now this is ridiculous. If you can’t take criticism of your ideas, then you should keep them to yourself.

Oh, I disagree. I think condis do need a reworking, mainly being able to have more than 25 stacks, but your solution strikes me as a poor one.

First, I do beleive there will be another race on july first, and i wasnt trolling. Second, he didnt even know that so he would have no reason at all to scrutinize my post. Third, I said that you can feel free to disagree with me, but it does not need to be negative, if someone believed that disagreeing with someone needs to always be negative that person would not have many friends. For example, you said, “your solution strikes me as a poor one”, this is derogatory, you could have said, your solution does not seem viable, your solution in my opinion would never work, your solution presents problems, your solution, im afraid, could never work (reasons why it wouldnt). Of course you are not required to do this, but it can go a long way in keeping people happy and earning the respect of others. I am also not saying that i do this all the time, i am not perfect, and i will never make all of the right choices and have everyone elses best interests in mind. But i try my best to.

I never once said I am not open to criticism, if fact, I thrive on criticism, hence why i said to disagree or agree with me, and to present other ways to make condys viable. however I am not open to negative or insulting criticism. Criticism is designed to make things better, to analyze the mistakes and eliminate them, to build up ideas or spawn new ones from the original concept, not to tear down people and their opinions. Unless of course their opinions are directly mean and designed to hurt people, but i believe my opinion was not at all this. If so, I am sorry for offending you.

So there has been a lot of complaints about condition builds in this game, that they are under powered and not viable in pvp. Unfortunately i have to agree

You are making an assumption and then passing it off as true with no other arguments than “there has been a lot of complaints”. Maybe you should go play PvP before you say these things.

why would i say there has been alot of complaints if there was not complaints…….in the past two days, which ive been playing nothing but pvp btw, i heard over 18 people complain about them. Also, in the past year, the percentage of zerkers i have faced in pvp is about 80%, 15% of the time its tanks/wtfbuilds, and maybe 5% of the time its condy builds, and every condy builder i faced, i beat.

edit: notice, ive been playing pvp for a year.

Um, ive been playing this game for a year since today. and it might just be a game, but i almost cried when saw lions arch destroyed and some of my favorite npcs dead or gone. Lol to say that it was devasting means you either dont play much or you are new. not saying you are bad or anything, its just that most people who play mmos invest alot of time in them and get attached to some of these things. All those times goofin’ round’ with guildies in LA and just doin stuff you do in LA, they gonna be missed.

I have been playing since Release. I remember Lion’s Arch before it was destroyed. and the destruction at first was just a Huge inconvenience. I did Not cry…I Just yawned.

To say that " scarlet’s war" was " devestating" is Hyperbole at best…. So a zone was changed, Big whoop…where are the new races, the new classes, the " new" permanent content? and don’t tell me a new merchant In an Old zone that sells some piece of crap for karma is the extent of " new permanent" content.

Im sorry i get into the game, ill try to be more shallow next time. games are for kids right? silly things, why would anyone actually care about them……

So there has been a lot of complaints about condition builds in this game, that they are under powered and not viable in pvp. Unfortunately i have to agree, although I love playing my condy necro and stacking bleeds like crazy, my zerker necro can beat it every time. Removing conditions is just so easy to do, one simple click can remove a hard worked for 25 stack of bleed off your char. In fact, if you are anything above a semi decent player you should rarely be affected heavily by conditions (not meant to be derogatory).

So, now to my suggestion, why not have something akin to a critical hit. You would have a percentage of chance to land a critical condition that would be more powerful in some way, preferably, it would be a condition that could not be removed but here are some other things i thought of below.

Critical condition
-More powerful, does 100-200% more damage.

-Impossible to remove for 2-6 seconds.

-Doubles stack, if one stack of bleed applied goes critical it becomes 2 stacks.

-double duration, the critical condition goes double, or a certain percentage, longer.

-Increased speed, the condition ticks faster.

These are just a few of my ideas. Agree? disagree? Also please let me know a few of your suggestions on what a Critical Strike condition could do.

Any other ideas on how we could make conditions more viable?

I’m not a big fan of player housing simply because I don’t care to see resources dedicated to it at this time when there is so much more that needs to be done.

> Player with the house stands around looking at his beds and pictures or whatever, then what?

If it were a separate team working on it or there were not such a need for other things like new dungeons, new permanent zones, new PvP maps and so forth, then go for it. Until then I wouldn’t like to see it a priority because IMO housing has very limited use and even less long term value.

i agree with you on the first thing you said, but not with the second, housing would be pretty awesome, and i know about 2000 guild members that would have A TON OF FUN AT A GW2 HOUSE PARTEEHHHH! BOOYAAAAAA!

NOT ment to say 2000, meant to say 200…..

Aleglast, you do realize that we got that patch two months ago, right?

The “really big feature patch” was the april 15 feature patch.

Lol i can gurantee you we are going to get something huge on july first, and then i get to say i told you so.

what would you care to wager?
If you honest to god believe they are going to drop something bigger than what the feature patch on april 15 did, you are delusional.

Its going to be a simple LS addition… similar to what we have been seeing since the release of the bi-weekly LS cycle lol… you make it sound like anet is about to add xpac like content as in new skills/weapons/races/dungs…. just gonna be a nice little zone with some achievements and events to go zerg surfing, maybe a few cosmetics..

I will take enough pleasure in saying i told you so.

The interview you quoted was Colin talking about the April 15 feature patch. It literally has feature in how they referred to it. But if you want to hold your breath, then by all means…

That interview talked about a heck of alot more than just april patch pal, and you can believe what ever you want, i dont rlly care, the point is, I am right. And you will find out, and i will laugh.

that interview isnt my only source….hehe…..nuff said.

How can you be so sure Anet will come with something big on July 1st? Also what do you see as ‘something big’?

I’m not saying it won’t happen. But I do believe that atm, there is no way to tell.

I dont know a thing! ask azhur, he found me out, im just a fraud! lol

Remove soulbound from the game

ANet does not want you passing your Fine/Rare/Exotic gear to different characters. Call it an incentive to craft/farm, a trading post stimulus, a time/gold sink — whatever hidden purpose character-binding gear serves, I don’t know what you think has happened to make it stop serving that purpose. In fact, I don’t see any reasons in this thread so far, why ANet should go out of its way to eliminate it.

Can anyone explain how this would make the game better, instead of just asserting that you want it?

What does it matter anyway, those are only a few silver to a few gold.

The problem is really bag and bank space.

I dont think you understand, anet is a company, they want to make money, you buy bank slot, they make money.

Nervous about talking in teamspeak

I never talked in TS before, but i listen to commands and etc. Everyone seems around 20-30 if not older, it seems awkward for me talking since im only 15. Do I need to be worried about anything?

1. They could be lying about their age
2. Not everyone is on Teamspeak, the GW2 Teamspeak population is less than 2% of the playerbase
3. So what if you’re 15 ? No one cares. Just be yourself.
4. Why do you care how old they are and why is it awkward ? They won’t eat you. LOL
5. Why do you feel that it’s required of you to speak. If you don’t feel like it, you don’t have to. If you want to, you can.
6. Teamspeak is mostly there just so you can listen to the commanders co-ordination and be a good ant in the zerg and do your part
7. I don’t understand the last question, why would you be worried about anything? It’s a video game, you log in, you play it, you have fun and that’s that. Lol
8. If you encounter ageists(old people that think their superior due to seniority), don’t bother with them. They’re more childish than you are, they just can’t see it and you can’t see it either. Yet.

Remember, it’s all in your head and once you’re dead, you won’t remember any of it

So have fun

2%? you are on planet earth right?

Anet goes back on their words a countless times not to mention the vast amount of ninja nerfs they never mention in patch notes…
I don’t believe anything until its official released and I see it.

There was a time where anet said there was no chance of ascended gear lol.
They keep saying they are working on xpac like content…. ok we will see.. but right now, I don’t believe it and I have absolutely no reason to believe it. Anet has gone back on their words on multiple things, no reason for me to put my trust in their words again

they say this stuff now but thats because that is what the entire community WANTS TO HEAR. You honestly think anet will come out and publicly say “nah we aren’t really focusing on xpac like content, our primary focus will remain LS + gemstore”

Ok, think about something for a second, Gw2 has been out for just over 1 YEAR! and they have already released tons of content for that first year, it took wow over 2 years for their first expansion, i dont know why everyone in this game is so dam impatient.

Also, they currently hold the best MMO in existence, if you honestly dont think that they are going to add huge updates to it then you are wrong. Currently from the gem store they rake in more money than monthly subs could ever pull in. They have 350 employees. There will be something Huge, and in my oppinion it will be very soon. But i am prepared to wait until next year for it because they shouldnt be required to release anything huge for another year.
