Guild Wars 2

Why is there no ‘Target’ for me when I right click and go to properties? I’m on Windows 8…..

How do I edit it? I right click on my GW2 icon on the desktop, go to properties, and I see no ‘Target’. I see a ‘Location’ but it’s uneditable.

Please delete this thread, my dad just gave my expensive desktop away because he thought it was junk.

Hi everyone,

I have a 18 month old mid-high end custom made gaming desktop (windows 7).

About three months ago my mouse and keyboard would stop responding at certain times, I’d have to take the usb cord out then plug it back in and then it would work again, until it failed again. About 2 weeks ago both my mouse and keyboard have completely stopped working, period. The only thing I can do is turn the computer on, but without a mouse, nothing else.

What do you think caused this and where can I go from here? The desktop has been rotting in my garage for the past month but it’s such a waste of $. I haven’t played GW2/or gamed in so long it’s making me sad. I don’t have much spare money to spend on a computer guy either. I have a feeling it may have something to do with it always shutting down unexpectedly, because my house has a stuffed up electrical system and my washing machine often caused an electricity cut to the whole house. My PC has been through around 30 times of being suddenly shut down by this annoying issue.

Thank you all.

Honestly, I think they will keep it like Guild Wars 1 , where they never upped the max level from 20 (In GW1 that is).

I also wouldn’t mind if they never added another tier of gear. I’m happy with my stats on my main, and I don’t mind taking my sweet time to get my Ascended Accessories. Once they add Ascended Armour and Weapons (If they do) then of course I’ll go for those in time. But I don’t think they’ll ever make Exotic Armour absolute. It wouldn’t make logical sense, given the time and gold people put into getting their exotic armour. If they do add another tier above Ascended, I think it’ll probably be like Ascended Accessories. Slightly better, but not necessary.

Then again, Anet could always just upgrade our current Exotic gear to whatever new gear type they implement. ;D

I wan’t new maps, new stories, new skins, new classes even maby but I would maby play less or even quit GW2 if they increased level cap or/and have new better gear..

Also this. More stories, skins, and maps please.

Also, if Anet did upgrade us, that would be freakin awesome. But unlikely. But still, there is always hope

So there’s a possibility there may not be a level cap in the next expansion? Sorry that’s a whole other question lol… What about the accessories? The runes and jewels? The exotic rings and stuff that took me a long time to get for my three 80’s (i feel sorry for people with their 8 80’s)… They’ll become obsolete if there is a new level cap.

There is no “confirmed” level cap increase for an expansion. There is no “yes” or “no” answer yet, I guess it will be a long time until we get an expansion.

Runes and jewels will probably be obsolete, they already are in Ascended items because they don’t have upgrade slots, they have infusion slots. There is a good possibility that Ascended Armor won’t have upgrade slots (for runes) and instead have infusion slots, same with weapons and sigil slots. Maybe they haven’t released Ascended Weapons/Armor yet because they haven’t figured out what to do with those, who knows.

Exotic accessories are already getting obsolete with the advent of Ascended gear. But they aren’t expensive, compared to Unique Weapons they cost next to nothing, Triforge excluded, so the biggest issue/gold drain, if they increase the cap, is already taken care off (transmutation stones)

I understand what you’re saying. To be honest though, with three level 80’s it cost me around 45-50G to buy my exotic accessories, runes and jewels (I bought the rest using karma). I don’t care what other people say, that’s a fair sum of gold in my case.

edit a fair sum of gold -to be wasted-

Unless a-net delivered expansions in a way that didn’t cause too much de-value/wastage, I am going to have to accept it either way. Or stop playing. But I love GW2 too much to do that haha.

I like how all GW1 expansions worked, something like that works very good.

Yeah, that would be cool. I don’t know if expansions without level caps would solve the effort/gold/time wastage, but what you’ve wrote sounds nice.

Welcome to MMO’s.

Haha. That’s actually why I quit WoW, I got very mad at how much of my limited time and effort had gone down the drain after all the expansions. Was maybe thinking GW2 would be different.

Hi everyone

Note this is not a negative/complaining post, just wondering what you’re opinions and views are on this matter.

I don’t know if it has a proper name/term for it or not, but the whole thought of a-net replacing our hard-earnt armour/weapon/accessories that we currently wear for new, upgrade stats when the new expansion comes out….. kind of frustrates and discourages me.

Arena-net has been awesome in keeping us busy and always releasing new material, and I understand that introducing stronger/new stats into the game keeps us busy and gives us something to do, but I feel as if there has been a lot of gold, effort and time wasted when these items are suddenly going to become obsolete and outdated.

Of course, I know there’s nothing that can be done about it and I’m sure most people like this happening to a certain extent, but it would always be nice if A-net had some kind of reward or recognition system, SOMETHING so that I didn’t feel that I just had a lot of my ‘in-game value’ (if you know what I mean) decreased once a new expansion comes out.

What are your views on this? If anyone has any advantages they would like to share on this matter, that would be awesome, I’d love to have a more positive outlook on this process.

Thanks for your time.

There were only a few answers on google, and they were all from beta, and those that weren’t had differing answers.

I’m at 19% and at 4,320 MB…. It’s going to be a lot more than predicted, oh god. -_-

Wonder why yours is 15.6, and mine will be around 22?

Someone PLEASE just respond. It’s a simple question and I need to know really soon.

How large is the client? As in, how much data will it take to download the whole client? How many GBS? Thanks

Heya

I’ve just purchased GW2 as of ten minutes ago (WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!)

So as a test, I decided to begin downloading the client. I downloaded 1GB of it, then quit out of the client (purposely). When I reopened it, it wasn’t saved and began at 0% again.

This is an issue, because:
1- My computer is unpredictable and could crash during the downloading – because I have limited internet usage, I can’t afford to have to continuously repeatedly download the client.
2 – I have 20GBS to use in four days, before my 200GB of monthly data is refreshed. I thought it would be good to use the 20GBS up in the last day or so on the client, and then continue downloading when I have new data. But this won’t work, because I would have to exit the client once I’d have eaten all my data, still have a remaining 5 gigabytes to download of the client, have it not saved, and have to start all over again. Is that confusing? Sorry.

Is there a solution to this? Is there a way to assure that my client will save my download?

Thanks all, happy gaming.
