What feature do I miss about my old MMO? The ability to log on. If not for that, I wouldn’t be here at all.
Casuals shouldn’t be condemned to the open world and replaying story mode.
Condemned? It’s Open WORLD. It’s big, wide and rife with sights to explore and quests to complete. That’s like saying a free person is condemned from entering a high security prison and yet they can still go out and travel the whole world…oh and you could still enter the prison but not the places where the prisoners are kept.
It’s also not a place you get decent rewards. I did about 20 events yesterday just walking around randomly… got nothing but whites and blues, it felt really low and unrewarding. Rewards are CRAP in open world GW2. You need incentive to repeat the things you’ve already done, and there is zero incentive to. If you wanna make money, you are FORCED to run dungeons.
There is no way you can make as much in open world as you can running dungeons. If ANet drastically buffed general event awards all across the board maybe I wouldn’t be the only person soloing in the map 99% of the time… seriously it’s a freaking ghost town.
Then you have to ask yourself, what do you need the money for? If you’re a casual player, you only need rares to do any of the content, including dungeons. Why do you farm for exotic and ascended stuff? Likely for something to do which probably means you’re not a casual player.
What? So if you are looking for something to do, you’re a non-casual? That’s nonsense. So just because you perceive someone as casual, they aren’t allowed to have gameplay with incentives? Because only hardcore players should be rewarded, right?
I can confirm Shadow Behemoth… got one about 20 minutes ago… in fact, there were two that dropped on my server.
No GW1 account.
I play GW2 from Arizona.
I have played all times between 7am and 1am AZ time since getting the game.
Problems with lag/freezes and disconnection problems have been getting progressively worse for our two machines since the Karka event. This morning the problems were occurring every 2-3 minutes to one of our two machines, and the game was basically unplayable. Game ran flawlessly between ~Oct21 and the Karka event for both of us.
