Will you pre-order the next expansion? [Poll]

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Drlightningbolt.1754

Drlightningbolt.1754

I can safely say that I will not preorder another expansion for this game, the reason for this being the launch of this game was so unbeliveably dull that it only took me about a day to get through all the HoT content. I also compteted Revenant , herald, and the Base contant within a span of two days, and competing rev was before the nerf to the required amount needed to complete it. All of this leading up to the fact that I completed every useful mastery within the span of a few weeks after that, in hopes that the raid would be interesting or fun, especially since the testing for it was so buggy I could barely handle it let alone make a raid team for it. However when raids finally did roll around the rewards for it was horrid, I don’t know why I thought it would be good considering the rest of the game doesnt reward you unless you pay out to the gemstore. Which is my next issue is that there are more items that were released in the gemstore since launch then there was in game ‘rewards’ which is disgusting in of itself. Yes I undersand they need to make money, but come on they also get money for people buying the games, its hard for me to belive that they can continue to push out these items and not put anything of worth in the game thats not in the slightest RNG related. Which is my next issue, which is this games loot sytem is by far the least rewarding thing I have ever laid my eyes on christ on a stick, I’d have more luck winning the lottery then getting anything of worth from the rng. Yes I know it varies from person to person but thats not the point the point is no matter what I do its still luck based which means there is still a chance I will just not get rewarded. So when they say they are pulling something that they promised to the players for THIS expanison, and dont give me any bull that it wasn’t promised it was theres plenty of evidence of that. It’s just one of the MANY reasons why I wont be preordering or even buying another xpac for this game. Just my two cents

Raids Temporarily Off-line

Drlightningbolt.1754

I know you guys are trying, but can there be a bit of warning? Some of our group went to bed because we were told there would be no raiding. When we were suddenly prompted that there would be raiding, everyone dropped what they were doing to try and organize. Before we even got to squad up it was disabled again.

Maybe say “we’re going to re-enable it in X hours for a test”? Or silently enable it and see if something breaks before announcing that it’s up? We really appreciate the work you’re putting in, and we know it’s not easy, but the off-on is making it stressful for players, too.

This was exactly my experience, Except every one is now increadably kittened

Odd things that break your immersion?

Drlightningbolt.1754

Probably because there’s no “proper” way to name a character. People can name their stuff whatever they want to name it

This in completly untrue, If you are going to RP it would only take someone a few minutes to understand sylvari Naming conventions, All you would have to do is look at the names NPC’s. Sylvari all have Celtic names as well as Names from Arthurian Legend, They also do not have a Surname. Sure, name your character whatever, It especially doesnt matter if your not gonna rp or anythng. But If I see Alan BarkTree the sylvari RPing as a Warden of The Grove and he has spent his whole life there(Name slightly altered, but yes this happened) It makes no sense and breaks Immersion to all heck.

Hello, I am really dissapointed that the recent sale did not re release the Triple Trouble Wurm Mini Pack. I was un able to attain these beautful and amazing cute mini’s and it pains me to see that I am not able to get them. Yes I have the Cobalt Jungle Wurm Head Mini, but its just not the same. Arena Net I know I and many others would love to see these mini’s be released in some format, be it in a grindy format with tokens or just rereleased flat out in the GemStore. If I could get a Dev to respond to this serious situation it would be much appreciated.

Cheers~~~~

July without gemstore update?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Drlightningbolt.1754

Drlightningbolt.1754

Its because so little content has actually been released So now the only thing they had to look forward too is the Gemstore(It doesnt help with all the datamined stuff/Anets actually making nice looking stuff)…Now people are content starved because Anet hasn’t really released anything and anything they have hasn’t been permanent. Plus all the hype they are building up the expac despite the fact they havent actually announced a release date. So now people have nothing to look forward too, not even the gem stuff.

There is a trinity, just not a trinity that locks you in to any specific role. like a pseudo trinity. And hopefully with HoT “Challenging Group Content” more people will actually start wanting to play a role other then pure DPS in pve.

I have tried it in all, In spvp its not horrible (but rev sucks in spvp so common). In PvE its super fun and works great with tanky revs. and I havent really used it in WvW.

If a dungeon group is overly hostile to a random person, and I mean hostile for things like not hitting thier marks once or making a small mistake I usually wont make as much of an effort to help and will usually leave at an important fight. Yeah I’m that guy, but spouting off “Oi ! be nice” will usually just get me kicked anyway. Generally I stay from Pugs, Mostly because all Zerker Speedruns plauge the LFG and its not really any fun to dungeon in a stackfest anyway.

Why don't guardians get Taunt

in Guardian

Posted by: Drlightningbolt.1754

Drlightningbolt.1754

If the shield gets anything it should be aegis or resistance. Taunting doesn’t actually have anything to do with protection, not directly at least (which is more of the flavour of the shield).

Fair enough.

I believe they should get taunt as well. Either as part of a new utility skill or have it added onto an existing one, such as “Save Yourselves!”

That makes more sense, I’ll take it on anything at this point.

Then Rev shouldn’t get taunt either, In fact only Eles should get taunts if that is the reasoning behind it.

June 23 Specialization Changes

Going to add a change list at the top of the bottom post for updates that I make to the list. Here’s one change we forgot to document:

Guardian

  • Shield of Absorption cooldown goes from 30s to 24s baseline.
  • Shield of Judgement cooldown goes from 25s to 20s baseline.

The above skills will still be affected by the shield recharge trait and will go to 19s for Shield of Absorption, and 16s for Shield of Judgement.

Please do NOT change Consume Conditions! Thank you.

I don’t think anyone can stress this enough

Well, I guess Well of Blood will have to do now. With the changes to vulnerability I can’t see this being all that helpful, especially if I’m going to get 10 stacks :| .

So, as someone that loves his warrior and never PvPs due to total apathy and lack of anything that can even be considered interest…my Pv*E* utility has been smashed. Because a single group of screeching, bunnyhopping attack mashers had their little girl panties in a wad over warrior being mean to them. PvPers scream, PvEers pay.

I thought this /wasn’t/ World of Warcraft?

I’d rather go back to WoW then play Gw2 in its curent form, and that’s a kitten shame. I tried to level, I really gave it an honest go…but its down rite just not fun.
Not that anything I say really counts towards anything.

What do you expect Anet to do? TC is a popular server and a full server is a full server. There isn’t anything they can do about it. I don’t understand why you are mad at the game over this. Full severs happen.

^That is meaningless to me. You Help nothing, but thanks for letting your voice be heard. Good day.

I wasn’t trying to help. You are the one here throwing a fit over something Anet can’t help, a full server.

Yet everyone else had something helpful to say? wierd how that turned out.

I don;t like PvP at all, but I don’t know what the future holds. I know my BF is into that sort of thing so maybe I could get into it with him.

The thing is if I have them playing with me I want 100% of the game to be available to us all. I am actually kinda upset about this.

Someone please confirm that if we just wait till some off hours or something that the distinction “FULL” may not be in place.

As TC is one of the bigger servers for WvW to my understanding, your best bet would be to wait untill after the Tourney which ends in 4 weeks.

Seriously?!?!

Wow….

Yeah. Looks like they wasted $40 each buying this game from Gamestop.

So Rouven is right in that we can wait till later tonight or some crazy off hours and perhaps the server might not be marked as full, right? Those distinctions DO change throughout the day, correct?

The only thing that distiguishes the servers is the WvW, It does not matter what server you are on for PvE, RP whatever.

Seriously?!?!

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Drlightningbolt.1754

Drlightningbolt.1754

I mean it really doesn’t matter what server you are on since all the maps are all pretty much connected via the megaserver, even the guilds are server wide… You can easily just play with them if they go on another server like SoS or something. It doen’t seem like you care much for doing WvW which would be the only reason I could think of trying to get on the same server as each other. I had a similar thing happen with my friend and they just picked a server to play on, havent had any problems at all with connecting with them or anything like that.

Giving Up

LMAO! Yes, I’m sure that would work.

But what do you do if you get into the company and find most people don’t run dungeons? I’m not saying they do or they don’t…but what would you do if that were the case?

My guess is that if more people ran dungeons, more work would be done on them, because it’s just logical.

People ran dungeons when they came out 2years ago, Maybe if there was some new dungeons that people hadn’t exausted. then maybe people would do more dungeons. I mean what do you expect when you only have one years worth of new contant that no one can actually experience anymore…

Those seven levels come awfully fast. And since you’re getting messages every level to show what’s unlocked, the odds are most people will just wait for the message and it will click.

Why should a new player need to wait for information that should just be in the message anyway,instead of a vague comeback later,but I wont tell you when or why.
