Guild Wars 2

Dude we can’t even sit on chairs…

Same problem here too. Random DC’s and mainly waypoint tp dc’s. Hope it gets resolved soon :/

All I ever wanted was to be able to save my builds and switching between each of them in an instant. Guess 2017 we still have to click on each line/trait/ if you want to switch. Same goes for equipment. Other mmo’s have done it back in 2008 geeee

Aviator’s Memories! I go rofl every time I apply it. It’s a rare toy too. Not many have it.

Illconceived Was Na.9781:

What options do y’all have for auto-attacking? You might want to disable some/all of the options.

I know, but turning options off doesn’t work for me. I need them on. I agree if this thing occurs with offensive spells, but this isn’t the case. Buffs shouldn’t target anything at all.

Every time I activate the spell near a mob my character automatically targets it and attacks. Is there a way to fix this? If it’s intended then oh well, very poor choice for naming that spell.

Edit: also it’s not only “Retreat” but even other buff spells.

When GW2 came out I had time to play a lot. It’s been 5 years already, life kicked in. Can’t afford to do raids. Not enough time Give me other means of getting this armor…

point is different themed areas, different movement means

No, the point is artificially introducing a problem that the game already had a solution to in order to create a niche for the introduction of mounts which will undoubtedly be a massive cash shop success for them, at the cost of permanently losing part of the identity that makes Guild Wars 2 a Guild Wars game. Which they have every right to do, but don’t pretend they couldn’t have done the exact same thing with properly used waypoints and strategically places updrafts and ley lines. The only reason they aren’t is so that they can make mounts a desirable item and sell more gems.

Updrafts and leylines were not part of a gw game until they were introduced.

Its not what is implemented in game, its how, that determines whether or not it fits gw2.

Personally Im not interested in mounts, but the mario-esque bouncing mushrooms, and the gliders, and leylines, and so on are no more gw than mounts.

And you can bet that the cash shop implecations were a significant consideration for the decision to add gliders.

Updrafts, ley-lines and gliding in general was a sort of compromise. The community is so divided when it comes to discuss mounts or other means for transportation. (how old is this thread now btw?) So ANet gave us this new thing. But just so you know I repeat every year now and then, that w/e the majority in these forums request, ANet delivers. Sometimes with huge delays but hey, the things we ask for through all these years, sooner or later they make things a fact.
Those who asked for mounts are going to be pleased cause they are the majority of posters requesting such things here.
My personal opinion is “meh”. Just bring em on. There is nothing in my eyes that can spoil such a great game.

I can confirm that switching to a different character it’s working. Just did it

this is what I’m looking for

Even this year I cannot find the medley for “Prelude to Wintersday”. It’s not on soundcloud either?

Just passing by from a 3 month break of GW2. And with this topic I just want to say thanks to the ANet team for all the great work..providing the stuff we all wanted throughout the years. Love the new content and the direction the game is taking. Kudos to you guys. It’s good to be back! Cheerz to the best game there is. See you ingame!

P.S.
To all the naysayers, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: the team is listening to us and they DO provide… since day 1! Patience my fellow tyrians…it’s a virtue

Now that you’ve asked I still keep that infographic from the beta weekend events back in the day..
I guess ANet can answer with statistics.

Something like this?

Same thought here, the wings screw up your look a lot.

Dungeons are dead. Deal with it. :/

My two pets are named “Rekt” and “She beats me”.

the only threat to GW2 is John Smith.

This is so true lol. For 4th year in a row we see exactly this. Nothing changed in the past, I don’t expect things to change in yhe future either. Pointless thread if you ask me but thanks for bringing that up anyway.

You guys who rant against the jumping puzzle must be new. This jp is here from year one every year and believe me, even back then no matter how much we sucked at jumping, we managed to complete it in less than an hour. Today I can do it with eyes closed lol. Absolutely no need for a change at all.

What bothers me is the insane amount of drinks you need to complete one of the achievements. But hey, if the collection is here to stay after the festival ends I’m gine with that.

The rest of the collection is just meh…
All in all you guys cry so hard at something doable in a short term while there are more serious problems in the game. Shame on you.

And even more shame on you ANet for giving a shout about this pretty much easy collection instead of giving attention at other topics that need attention.

Now I can confirm that, after switching to the character with whom I first started the new story, the achievements work this time.

20.11.2015 pages still not active. can we get a fix already?
also Rytlock freezes in one spot after telling me to follow him, cannot proceed any further

These 2 nozzles are engines amirite?

I honestly believed that fractal rewards would get better like we asked on and on and ON FOR 2 YEARS! Thus compensating this dungeon nerf obviously. I was so wrong. Everything is down the drain now. RIP. I demand revert! Or start working towards your paying customers needs. Not the other way around suiting your precious economy horsekitten. Do better!

So Mr. Smith doesn’t want me to play dungeons. Fine. So I want him fired already. The only good thing he did was that CDI thread not long ago from which nothing came out for a change. And HoT proves it! For 3 years all we see is same old ways of adjusting his crazy economic ideas. Give me teh shinies. This is why I pay and play for. Excitement. Hire someone better already!

Is this true? I stopped playing fractals after HoT because of all the bullkitten obliteration. Can someone else back this up. If true, oh well.. another nail in the coffin for fractals :/

I still can’t believe all this has happened to fractals. I can’t. Everything is obliterated! Is this real life? Hello? Think I’m gonna go cry in the corner of my room.

Ah this lovely topic. Hello we meet again. 3 years and counting.

Still waiting for a fix here :/

Can’t login for more than an hour now. If I do manage to get in, I can’t go anywhere else. Hope for a fix soon!
EU

Me and my guild mates have the same issue [EU]. Login server isn’t working. Can’t go anywhere..

Thank you. This is really a good decision! Now I can enjoy the xpac on 100%

I believe you nailed it. Cheerz. Let’s go grind our kitten off. 50$? Totally woth it!

Every single major AAA mmorpg when providing new class or race or profession, boom it’s there. And you start playing the content with it right after. But noooo this ANet. Let them grind their kitten off before they get to the cool stuff. Is this why I paid 50$??

I’m with you all in the same boat. As a long time fractal player this us a kick in the balls. What’s even more hilarious is that the mat you get out from salvaging can’t be deposited in the bank. RoFLLL

When John Smith asked us a year ago how can we fix the heavy RNG in the game people talked about token system. And I believe this is exactly what we are seeing here. It is mentioned in a several places in this last blog post. Maybe it’s for good? Idk. Getting stuff from just playing the game is the way they see it, instead of farming the same thing over and over again. At least these new adjustments are a subject to change.

Well, finally one thing is finally clear. ANet is controlling the market the way they want it to be, and not the players. This last blog post proves it with every single sentence.

I was browsing old videos and I remembered there was one 4 years ago, where Matthew Barrett drew an asura.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vVLnN11OBo
(this one got me pretty excited about GW2 back then, I must have watched it several times, pretty soothing video )

Also there was one with Kristen Perry where she made some character art. Pretty neat too.
So I was wondering, can we have more of these behind the scenes videos of this sort?

My body is ready

Nannabie.6943:

I will live in the Halloween-world all Halloween xD till my head turn orange :P

I’m on the same boat as you. It’s a shame they could’ve released Halloween a week or two earlier. We got nothing to do anyway atm. HoT is here to stay so Halloween events are top priority till we vomit all the sugar pumpkins we eat.

+1000000000 for Fishing.
Just don’t lock it with a fishing rod only. Add other ways as well.

if you know what I mean

The effort you put in SW justify the farm there. No need for changes at all.

The fact that near Ebonhawke is the path that leads to Crystal Desert makes the OP statement convenient isnt it? Something for future expansion of the story. Food for tought.

Funny thing, I play fractals more than anything and I get ascended chests more than exotic drops. RNG sux.

Yes they made several nerfs so far. Atm I see champ bags in a good state. Ordinary drops from mobs need some love tho. In the past year I smell some stealth nerfs. Running with 400% MF makes the drop no different than running with 150% or less. And please stop giving me luck from daily log-in. I facepalm myself everytime.

/rant

They made 364758892958 adjustments to the BLC in the past 3 years. And not a single one made me pay real cash for keys. Because 95% of the stuff in these chests are either garbage or stuff I don’t need. Better of buying stuff from TP. 100% guarantee for a desired item.

Why not replace the luck from monthly rewards with keys. This sounds more convenient to me.

Well some 4-5 million bought the game so far. Hope this tells you something.

We lost the approx numbers with megaservers so why care?

Konig Des Todes.2086:

Why don’t they drop?

Because Anet made similar events like this in the past where foes dropped loot. And it was abused.

Why aren’t the rewards based on map progress?

Because Anet made similar events like this in the past where the players were rewarded on map progress. And it was abused.

Don’t like how things are? Blame the players who exploited these very kinds of events throughout Season 1.

Scarlet’s Invasions (and many, many others). People farmed few events, letting champions spawn and killing only them.

Escape from Lion’s Arch. Hour long event that tracked progress by maps. Became full of players afk’ing and getting rewards for doing no work.

And now that anet completely prevented this kind of exploiting, people are QQ’ing and kittening about not having the basis of what allowed that exploitation. Most of them might even be the very exploiters.

If I remember correctly doing a successful Scarlet invasion and LA attack the rewards at the end were way way better than just farming champs. I remember people going crazy for failing at them. Am i wrong?
