"Leveling as a Reward" Experience Crippling!

What is it with the rewards? Why does everyone need rewards?

Playing the game itself should feel like a reward, and it did once.

The game desperately needed better rewards, they just put them in the wrong place. The leveling experience only lasts a month or so even if you’re playing super casually. While the leveling experience should be rewarding, completely re-doing it with rewards that are pretty much garbage isn’t going to fill the massive void or lack of reward at the endgame that players will inevitably reach.

Pretty much all endgame has is fractals, and instead of having a common sense reward system like a pristine relic merchant for the rewards that are actually wanted (e.g. fractal weapons, ascended chests), you’re stuck with relying on RNG just as you are throughout the rest of the game i.e. being meagerly rewarded, if at all when compared to the time the player has put into it.

Still broken, prevents living story and makes T6 impossible.

Can’t believe this bug is still here. Does aNet even read this forum? Letting such a simple-to-fix bug that inhibits gameplay like events/story continue for this long as inexcusable.

At least respond and say that you hear/are working on it.

Speculating on the for-against numbers serves no purpose because it isn’t realistically quantifiable. If 51% were for and 50% were against it wouldn’t make it a successful patch.

In my personal opinion the feature pack has been received negatively enough both in game and on the forums for it to be called at the very least not a success.

World 3 or no, please bring it back.

I agree. I know many who would enjoy it even without a new world .

There may be a point about time/resources of the devs with all of these other changes going on (whether or not I agree with them), but at the very least they could add it in as it was last years, which shouldn’t be much more work than a copy and paste.

People can’t post their feedback on the patch because it’s ‘unfair’? And how can you speak for the majority? An easier solution would be if it bothers you don’t read it.

“Feed back” doesn’t have to be disrespectful. Its not an issue of fair or not fair.

Did I say that it did? He was saying it’s unfair that people are posting negative feedback about the patch, which it isn’t. Negative doesn’t equal disrespectful.

Read my 1st post in this topic bro. And it is very obvious by the look in the forums atm that people are not being very respectful.

I did. Your quoting of me was pointless in the first place since I was responding to the OP about the right to post negative feedback. It had nothing to do with disrespectful posts/conduct as that goes without saying and isn’t even what the poster was posting about.

SAB was probably some of the most fun I’d had in this game. Good thing we got this amazing ‘feature’ pack instead.

This isn’t a ‘feature’, it’s simply an awful addition to the game for new players and veterans alike, as was 99% of the entire update. Level gating the lower levels was just a terrible idea and just shows how out of touch the developers are.

Instead of adding in the actual wanted features (useful tutorials for new players i.e. combos, precursor scavenge, legendary armor/trinkets, fractal updates) Anet is focusing on revamping things that aren’t broken such as early game experience/pacing and the TP and adding in content that most could care less about, like ‘collections’. Which by the way if you realistically ever want to complete with RNG, you have the throw in thousands of gold making the worthwhile ones nothing more than a glorified gold sink and a blessing for the insiders who were able to buy the collection items for a few gold before the update and mark them up 5000%.

Just my 0.02.

Same bug has happened in every DT map I’ve been in for the past 2 days or so.

Given how stuff like this happens every update, implementing test servers would have paid for themselves by now and it’s something that would make Anet look much more professional.
