Funny thing, I find all poping out reward windows (they consider suuuch improvement) to be EXTREMALY annoying, never read them too.
Why? Because they INTERRUPT MY GAME!!!
Yep, killing monsters, exploring, doing quests – is the game. To tell the truth I did not even tracked my level, as soon as stuff get to difficult I turned back and completed stuff I missed or crafted or did some events. Strongly preffered letters and “!”, because I actually enjoyed the game – I though it was what it was about. Singleplayer game with MMo benefits.

But this is convinient isn’kitten
How they are using what supposed this game was all about, and claiming you were doing this to “cheat” ArenaNet out of profit. Which is case in some games but here every single person that is complaining has paid their share to support this game and often much more than required.
Do not get decived, people that invented and push this argument is arenanet themselves, because they are the only one who is posting here and WHO DID NOT PAID FOR THIS GAME, hence have proper mindset to consider that idea sensible. YOUR CUSTOMERS ALREADY PAYED YOU – and you sold them PAY ONCE experience.
Want more money? Make a standelone expansion as you did before. Players too spread out? Connect maps.
Living story is extremaly stupid idea, as it do not add to the value of the game, since as soon as it is gone – it is gone for good.
Of course main problem is that this would require actual work, smart design (smart people cost more) and why do that since you can just take the game hostage and monetize on it as long as player base will accept the abuse.
Well nevermind – I am only writing here to make it more difficult for employees to overpost customers with as-kissing posts. Actuall fans and fanboys will have their brains smoothed out soon enough…

>> Is “leveling alts” code for keyfarming?
> For most of the complainers – yes.
That is BS. I did make multiple alts – yes, for fun and if not GW2 fanatics, I woudn’t even realize that 10 level key thing – that k-i-t-t-i-n insignificant that kitten is. I seriously doubt everyone aside of few bozos ever care about it – and this could be easily solved by simply taking away that ____ key.
Also I bought a bunch of game cards and trilogy just to support their game. I have never found actual use for for the stuff they were selling, and treating as it had actual value. GAME/ENTERTAINMENT is only value in what they are selling – AND THEY GET RID OF IT TO GET MORE MONEY!!!
Corrections, I actually had suspicions concerning its use: I assumed “premium” stuff was there (and occasionally given away for free) to fill up our banks so we buy bank tab extensions …
Actually this is something I recommend to everyone.
Lets fight extensive greed, ridiculous profit demands from shareholders – that have no bassis in performance/design/growth improvements, and often exceeding physical limitations (which basically mean customers & employes have to psy for the gains with their own time an money).
Way more interesting. Beneficial to society and serving as a great mean of self development.
Lets post to the hearth content, don’t get discouraged by insult throwing bullies. Together we can make this community to be community this company deserves!, I bet noone will even open this forum without stacking up on alcazeltser afterwards!!!
And the best part? It is Good. It is morally right.
You can get ACTUAL KARMA, just by making other people aware of what you did not like in this game update / policy / strategy / approch – so potential customers (wictims I like to call them) do not get decived into paying if they wouldn’t buy it, they knew what they were getting into!
@Lazuli.2098
> What do you plan to do?
Well I’m trying to get my account deleted, since I do not be playing it and I do not want them to rip any benefit from having this account there (like we have ABZ’XYZ people playing, you can trust us with your investements etc. etc.)
I hope this post – among others – will make them hurry up.
If this won’t help, I’m trinking about trolling/making fun of – all positive posts I find.
I will be basically saving all those poor souls from addiction and financial ruine, grindy pay-20-win games are.
@Vayne.8563
Constructive answer/feedback usually require question. It is a sort of social agreement.
This is basicaly like a difference between a gentelman which ask you in the pub if you you would like to get involved with him erotically – and one which forcefully sodomize you in dark alley and ask “Do like it?”…
ArenaNet does not deserve constructive feedback (yes, this is something one need to actually deserve)
People payed them for something (some handsomly -.-) and not it is being taken from them. Not in 20 years, not in 10 or 5. In 2 years.
They are turning it into grindy pay-2-win it is in china, and are not duing it for our satisfaction. They are not doing it to improve it as well – they are doing it for money! They deserve sh?t they get →TO THE FULEST<-
@Lunaire.5827
They do not want your feedback. They want to reduce “unnecessary” development costs that would arise from living story having to be developed in 2 separate versions. Now they cannot introduce western version in china. But they can introduce chinese version in the west. And they do. Step by step until difference between both is the text they display.
Now why chinese version is different? Chinese version is different because they are not meant as a form of entertiment (at least not mainly). They are ment as a mean to main people compliant to the fault. They are ment to make people used to mindless low level work performed in countless hours and “gods” grinding their way up to the top. What they are not ment to be, is they are not ment to be Played. Playing is a form of development, wheras those games are supposed to do exact oposite – hendicap persons development and even regress it if possible.
Why? So they can get compliant, aspiration-less, easy to make happy sociaty, that have strict hierarchical structures burned in their brains to the level of the law of nature and that will work suicidal amount of working hours without complain.
This is EVIL. This is DISGUISING and INHUMAN.
And ArenaNet is getting payed to export that “kindness” …
Everything they say about this being bugs and minconceptions is the same, as the guy you cought in the middle of crowd with his hand in your pocket – claiming he needed support due to muscle exhaustion …
Now how likely would be such man to continue stealing from you if you actually belived that explanation? (allowing him to continue his attempts until he obtain everything you own)
For me this is not a game anymore – it is a money scheme. And they dont want even to delete my account (I do not even mention lack of refund/resale possibility).
This game was one of the few games where I (a player) could simply play AND kitten-ING ENJOY IT. Now – it was bad enough they introduced gold seling mechanism that reduced amount of gold earnet via levelig. It introduce grinding but could be worked around once person knew more about game mechanics.
And currently they introduced gateing which take away big chunks of functionality for significant part of the experience. And in addition to that set level revards to be available only every few levels which with down-scalling mean, if you ever wanted to go back to actually play and enjoy the content you have to GRINDING ALL THE WAY UP TO 80 not be killed over and over because of your stats getting sloughtered.
Also they seem to forgot they do not have any 80 level content, aside of grinding for “ultimate-uber-super” weapons (soon available in every neighborhood store!!!).
All that to get more money they already received SH?TLOAD of.
LEVELING IS PLAYING. IF I WANTED TO GRID UP TO MAX LEVEL AND THEN GRIND FOR EQUIPMENT THEN THERE IS A HUNDREDS OF GAMES WHICH DO IT BETTER!!!
Not even to mention the direction ArenaNet took from Pay once and play to the most discusting form of “free” to play experience – forcing players to ridiculus and mind numbing, 1-button smashing grind!!!
F-THEM. F-THEM. F-THEM.
Can login now – can’t play ( “recreation window” is over ).
Thanks for the efforts though.
Same error as everyone else . It seem dreaded firewall uprising is finally upon us…
May I ask, will this be happening for every update (event) bigger than 25MB?
I mean Lost Shores caused some instability but Ok.
Then I needed to stop for a while, and when I start first event (Queen Jubilee) then second update that day end up with me getting booted out of the game every 2-5 minutes. Then I wait some time, when I start game gets quite difficult because there is very few people (I’m curious why…). Now this.
I’m not sure if Arena Net is aware what kind of impact can something like this have on the servers population. Stuff like that would be enough to desolate Word of Warcraft server, back in the day it was good game, even if Blizzard decided to give up game/time for free…
I would really advice to put more attention into that.
