Hi,

My Engineer is level 80 and I have unlocked most of the elite specialisations for him (up until Purge Gyro so far). I still haven’t had my Adept achievement unlocked yet and as a result, I have not had the Scrapper’s Hammer rewarded to me yet. I take it this is a bug?

On my Mesmer and Elementialist, the instant I had unlocked the first training slot for the elite specialisation, I had the achievement and weapon associated with them.

Any ideas on how I can fix this?

Thank you for your time.

Will I still be able to play?

Hi, this is my first post ever here and this expansion has led me to the forums to post my thoughts, etc.

Will I still be able to play GW2 if I don’t buy HoT? Judging from the way you’ve replaced the core game, it leads to me to think that this is not the case?

I for one, will not be buying the expansion and my friends and girlfriend will not be buying it either. It’s overpriced for the little content it contains (considering some of it is free to all users anyway). We don’t care much about the Guild Halls and the rest is ‘alright’, but other than that, we know very little about the expansion.

In our opinion it is not worth the money and it’s an insult to offer the core game to us for ‘free’ when we already have it. We don’t want the game again either. A character slot would be a fair compromise I guess.

The content that is in the expansion:
- A new region/map that we know virtually nothing about except a ‘sneak peak’ during Beta.
- Challenging group content (whatever that means)
- New story (how long is it?)
- Mastery System (which everyone gets)
- The Revenant profession (okay, great this is good. I played it during Beta)
- Specializations (everyone gets this for free anyway except Elite I think?)
- Stronghold PvP game mode (okay, cool)
- New WvW map which REPLACES the original (everyone gets this for free anyway)
- Some reworked mechanics which everyone gets
- Guild Halls (not interested in it personally, but for those that love this, cool)
- Adventures which we know little about
- Precursor crafting (okay awesome)

That’s it I think. Some of that is free for everyone as well.

$50… Overpriced much? The rest of the packages are a rip off as well and are not worth the money in my opinion and it seems I’m not the only one who thinks this.

The original game is gone and only the HoT exists now so I can’t even upgrade.
To make matters worse, most of the content that was released at launch up until LS2 is gone or been and only the aftermath remains (like Southsun Cove, etc). The titles, achievements and all the rest of it that existed once, we can’t access again.

The core game was worth the money, so what gives with the recent stuff we’ve been given or had taken away? You’re asking too much for this expansion and the content it gives is not worth $50 especially when 3 years worth of content was released for free and it must of been worth it because you kept it up for 3 years straight without any complaining about lack of funds.

The way you’ve ‘replaced’ the original game just seems like you’re hiding the content the expansion has behind the original game so it looks like a ‘good deal’. It’s not. Furthermore, all of your existing players who have backed you, you don’t even care.

I’ll come back once the expansion is at a reasonable price and the items are somewhat worth the cost you’re requesting of me. I hope others who are not satisfied also stick to their guns and refuse to give you any money as well.

Please bring back the LS1 content so players (new and old) can get past achievements, titles, etc and please make this content actually worth the money you’re asking.

Thanks for reading this giant wall of text and if not, this post was not aimed at you.

Thank you.
