Guild Wars 2

Mike O’Brien saves Hallowe’en!

NOW THAT’S HOW YOU SELL MORE EXPANSIONS

expect a new surge of players in Heart of Thorns maps

it’s Malchor’s Leap lmao

> Dive in various locations in tyria (seriously anet? this? a kittening mastery point??)

This takes about ten minutes and was made easier with Heart of Thorns.

> Kill the SW legendary bosses (Rng based boss spawn chance)

Easy.

- Complete my remaining season 2 story’s wich are locked for me and require a 100g or 800 gem investment

Why didn’t you play when they were free? 100g is virtually nothing anyway.

It also sounds like you already have quite a lot of mastery points; everything besides what you listed means you’re only missing 1-5. Big deal.

Consider removing Unidentified Fossilized Insect and have someone make it so its vendor equivalent (3x Sandy Bag of Gear) drops instead once the Ambrite weapons collection is completed. Would probably make Dry Top-dedicated guilds even happier.

he literally just recorded it from the stream

Some people thing raids are still too easy and some think they’re still too hard.

Add an Infantile Mode and a Tribulation Mode with reduced and increased rewards, but achievements still earnable.

politicians keep promises better than arenanet; I can’t buy the expansion when upcoming MMOs and Blizzard games actually somehow offer more content. anet’s marketing and content teams have failed, what’s left?

also new legendaries are content, and great content. sure they don’t offer any real storyline or new environments, but it’s hundreds of hours of surprisingly non-grindy gameplay.

at least make it so amalgamated gemstones accept sigils, runes, leather, spikes, and player tears

sounds like we won’t be getting rid of all the elder dragons (recent blog post implied one expansion will have multiple killed) and we’ll just skip to guild wars 3

While the leaderboards are being fixed, please make the relevant titles for them hidden achievements, making them not show until unlocked.

edit: Moderator made this its own thread and gave it a bad title >:(

This is not okay, especially considering people don’t want LS3 in the same format. Gw2 has no new content and the content team should go in its original direction.

The only good news is that they released staff and pistol in the first group; staff is used by almost every profession and I use staff and p/p on my Daredevil. Warriors are basically the only ones missing out.

On the side of the marketing team, they’re doing terrible. Most of the content on the gem store It is very good that they aren’t moneygrubbing, but they’re trying so hard to avoid that that none of the items on the gem store released in the past year are worth buying. Nothing good for convenience or utility. If there is any, it’s nerfed so hard that it is not worth the purchase price and that I would rather spend my real money on another video game’s MTX.

I have also suggested Guild Wars 2 to about 50 friends, because it is the best MMORPG on the market. Thirty bought the game, ten dropped it, and ten said they won’t buy it unless it’s on Steam. Who cares if Valve takes 30% smh tbh fam; you’re losing sales and your marketing is bad. Now that Guild Wars 2 is free-to-play, it is even easier to put Gw2 on Steam because you can make it free. That way people who already own the game can still use the Steam version, unlike the original Guild Wars. Free, and then you upgrade your account and link it with Steam. Valve and ArenaNet were like best buds, man. Free-to-play games are wildly more successful on Steam, and you don’t want EVE Online to have more subscribers than Gw2 just because it’s on Steam! Foreigners and all kinds of poor people install every free-to-play game on Steam, and that’s what earns Gw2 ez players. I can’t move to seattle to make this happen pls why do you hate money

tl;dr The marketing and content teams. We’ve had issues with these teams at previous events. Some Arenanet people lobbied to bring them back for 2016, feeling that they deserved another chance. That was a mistake. These teams are stupid, and we won’t be working with him again.

Even though Guild Wars 2 is currently the best MMO, I will not be buying the next expansion unless there is enough content that I go from 16k AP to 19k AP by the time MapleStory 2 comes out in North America. Both technically ncsoft, so the money all goes to the same place k e k

make it last until the 14th

Still want this fixed as well

This a good question to ask. I own over 1000 games and Guild Wars 2 is my favourite, yet the merchandise hasn’t been worthwhile yet.

FWIW I’m male and live in Ontario, Canada.

Things I would buy:
- Figures of major characters, bosses and monsters, quaggans, or golems. Large ones and small toy-sized ones.
- Plushies of quaggans and golems, as long as the golems are the wide golems and not the tiny Hero-Tron sized relay golems
- The awesome HoT logo on black t-shirts (and other clothing) that Arenanet employees and co wore during the Heart of Thorns announcement / and launch celebrations
- Hoodies. I wear a hoodie 365 days of the year and I need more of them. I usually wear it zipped up, so I wouldn’t be able to see a t-shirt design anyway. Make more hoodies.
- Jackets
- Small electronics like USB sticks or neat combinations like the Zojja-Golem USB hub
- Anything that comes with a physical “Collector’s Edition” of the next expansion, which Heart of Thorns did not have.
- Guild Wars 2 toaster, if it didn’t toast only the Gw2 logo on to the bread
- Headgear like caps and beanies, or stuff based off helmet armor from the game
- Socks!
- mugs that don’t suck
- anything not showing the charr, kodan, tengu, and other visually displeasing races

Things I would not buy:
- charr stuff
- artbook or soundtrack, despite both being amazing
- posters; I’ve already got a lot
- watches, wristbands
- umbrellas, backpacks, bags. including charr and quaggan backpacks or hoods, no thanks.
- mousepads
- stuff with digital unlocks; okay for some games but not gw2 thanks
- undergarments, lingerie
- books, unless they’re available locally
- Guild Wars 1 merchandise
- Notepads, stickers with map iconography e.g. commander tags, personal story stars

Merchandise depicting people or creatures should look pretty accurate, otherwise it’s a no-buy from first glance. It’s gotta be cute, sexy, or tough/fierce. Don’t make a quaggan look too uncanny and weird, a statue of Zojja making her look like an old man, or a dragon that looks like it would befriend you.

I’m much more likely to buy all Guild Wars 2 merchandise if it were available locally or if the shipping were cheap or waived if I made a large enough purchase online. I would have to see what products are available first.

their world rank is too low and they ran out of supply, sorry

yo arenanet

you gonna fix this

We also need Lady Kasmeer’s bikini.

most graphics cards don’t support dx12, but dx11 would be great. or don’t be stupid and just go full openGL

They shouldn’t change the way they’re making armour because male players prefer to make attractive female characters and cool-looking male characters. It fits both needs.

HoT is the best part of the game since the April patch.

Mike O Brien.4613:

Hi all,

Sadly we’re not going to be able to launch the new episode “The Head of the Snake” on its intended release date today.

We were hit hard by the Seattle area storm and resulting power outage. We’ve been working to bring everything back online as quickly as possible, but after a series of setbacks, it’s become clear that it won’t be today.

Please accept our apology. We’re going to keep at it through the night and hope to be able to launch tomorrow, but obviously we can’t promise anything.

Mo

Please launch it at the regular time tomorrow as opposed to as soon as possible

I was coming back to PvP today to see if it wasn’t a dead gamemode but

Now that Vault is no longer affected by quickness it feels pretty sluggish and unusable in sPvP
