Guild Wars 2

Ayrilana.1396:

I did it in about 35ish minutes without cheating or using consumables. You can learn the abilities or just spam auto attack while doing suicide runs. Of course the latter will take forever.

Yeah, did the same. Then I bought 2,3 miniature jade armor and did it together with someone else and wanted to bite me own behind because instead of 30 minutes of jump-bite ,dodge, bite, make vulnerable, die, bite……(and so on and on sniffle) it took 10.
“Prized possessions” is worse because the skills can get buggy, especially skill 1 tended to bork any forward momentum I had and repeatedly made me fall slowly, like a feather down into the chasm.

because they fixed it so you need to not get hit while gliding landing on the vine makes you not eligible for the achievement which is annoying but makes sense.. It says “flight of fancy” not “stand on a vine of fancy”

Mea.5491:

The female version has buttcape. Yeah, thanks…

you KNOW why it has it or not? Just think for a second and you will get it? right?

What is the difference between the male and female version?
1. buttcape for female
2. FEMALES ARE ALMOST UNDER IT. Males have some really ugly pajama under it.
So. now look at the back of female and male models and lo and behold: if the male model would be as naked as the female under the ice , he would need a buttcape too. And if the outfit wasnt sexist, then the man would need a buttcape too because he’d also wearing the tanga.
But..t sadly the the man is fully covered except two small holes at the sides, so the butt is already hidden. But not for the female chara. And we can have underboob n stuff but no string-tanga I guess, so buttcape it is.

Yes, having the female version be nakes, super clingy, draw focus to TnA while the men are fully clothed except their head and two faint little tears in their sides is sexist.

have to go now, but dont get me wrong-im not against that outfit per se.
I have something against the stupid sexist inequality in regards to nakedness.
Gw2 designer, look at final fantasy 14 on how its done.
geez i though you’d better than this aion level stuff

J envy.5270:

Dmn i main an engi, only one i have who is at the new map, guess ill have to bring my guardian and start doing the episode.

>Streamlined Kits→ aggro a few enemies, then swap to bomb kit when he charges and get off a glue bomb and you should be able to bunch up the enemies.

The smugness of some people posting in the thread shows a certain mindset I would call elitist- not necesaary expecting something or getting self worth out of achievement, but a sense that some people look down on other people who arent willing to raid for whichever reasons.
This shows by belittling those reasons-asking but then no answer is good enough unless they include admittance of self-suckyness or something..
Only their effort is true effort and only effort is good.
The idea that casual play is somehow lesser and not just a different way of gaming is still strong-and its not cool. Just because someone is better at doing some things doesnt make their way of playing better or more valid or worse.
Because fun is subjective. Some people think its fun to learn something they cant do and hone those. Other have fun relaxing by playing for story or just admiring the environment. Both is fine, but still the first is deemed better despite being different and people can not only take worth out of it but some take the worth out of defining other players as lesser for choosing to define fun differently.

Peole talkinga bout fears and getting dismissed by someone not being able to accept that some part of the community can behave toxic and that people (of of experience with this and other games) choose to not play out of the reasonable assumption they may meet some of those people.. Im sorry, but “some gamers are toxic” isnt an attack, its stating a fact and demanding proof of personal hurt before accepting is dismissive too. And building some ridonkulous strawman to belittle that position even further-again, proves the point imho.

and thats only on page 1.
So. yeah. people make or break the game, certain content attracts certain people with certain definitions of fun which may differ wildly from people who dont prefer the content. People then belittling those reasons makes a bad impression and may even prove some fears people voiced-and as we all know, bad impressions tend to linger more.

you know.. my laptop with win10 just shut down and now it seems there is an error or what, the exe just kills itself and wont work anymore. I dont know why tbh :/

Oh and you dont need to wait. Just WP back to the Fields of ruin, run and use the Rifts there. I did it because I dont wanna wait forever. Worked fine

I had 2 dcs and a massive crash but it didnt reset my progress on the Class I rifts, so i think you may be fine..

after the dc the game did load the previous map for a second(like. I was at DH cliffs and then to the next map when it crashed, so the game flashed up the DHC-screen for a second and then swapped to the right one)

Akachi.1352:

So I just completed the heart by Smooshatron PoI, went to the vendor to get my Petrified Wood but he wasn’t selling it, like the previous days.

Is this a bug or has it been updated?

Have you done that heart on another character on the same day?

No, I just logged on for the first time today, all other hearts functioned normally

Yeah, I had the same problem also, i could only buy 4x the wood, not the 5 times.

I thought the stupid little Skritt had scratches, not scritches…
(and also no stitches.)
Is the event to defend them at their poorly chosen home-locale.

Sariel, do you mean when the skill work combined? Because now you are saying: both skills work together all the time?

I have the same bug for the “prized possessions” story btw. When I activate 1, nothing else works, and sometimes it cancels all animations-so no gliding forward..
“glider of death”
“fun” thing-this also happens for running, which gets my character killed because it stops to run in place-and then get killed by Vine-hole

aand still a problem on some charas.
interesting: mostly charr and asurra.. I dont really know why.

Still broken? Because I had the same problem, and fixed it by using the -repair command.
(how to: https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Command_line_arguments )
That one solved it for me, so it was something broken.

interestingly only one guild-chat broke-it did not display the messages from one guild, but other chats worked and what i wrote others could read, just not I.
but running the -repair command (dont forget to delete that one after it has run) solved it, so if you still got that problem you could give that a try if you havent already

I want a punk-style haircut please..Ad some nice short styles too..
just funk off with the kitten gender gating and get us access to ALL hairstyle of our races. Because I cant remember needing to have an external genital to be allowed to wear a punk-hairdo.

Loosmaster.8263:

As far as part 2, there was a poll on that, apparently everyone was satisfied and the track came out of Beta.

I’m pretty sure us miffed PvE:ers weren’t participating in that poll, since we didn’t think we’d be affected by it at all.

Yeah, if you don’t frequent here or met the ingame mail requirements.

Yes= Because I DONT PLAy WVW… The only time I did wvw was 2 times with guild members. SO I think I am level 5 or something?
So, yes, of course I didnt get it because I care atm more for my cats litter box than for this modus. So Why would I play it? Therefore where would I get the level from that are requirements to get information about dirt that seems to pertain me now all of a sudden

and do look a lot into the lfg. I did it every day for like, 2 weeks while running a bout around in CS and lo and behold, on one day a nice person advertise a contested temple and helped me to get it.

btw- try just the defend event, I´ve heard often enough that you dont have to let it fail but that priest comes also during the defend event and casts its corruption.. Just try to stand in a few aoes.^^

and if you stumble on one such even, dont forget to put it in lfg yourself. Others will thank you for that

Najten.2418:

Sakara Prime.5370:

If all you gripping wvw’er played half as much as you say you do….you would have the GoB by now.

We already do? Atleast I do, can’t speak for everyone else.
We just happen to still think this change is bs.
The rest of your post doesn’t deserve ever being quoted though.

Jayne.9251:

Dear me. This thread makes me appreciate WvWers. Some of the comments are just unbelievable, coming from adults.

The rest of Sakara Prime.5370’s post.. I rest my case.

Yep. That was like the most beautiful q.e.d possible in this situation I guess.
Still, its a bad situation for everybody, even the people that are here being so very polite people that dont show any schadenfreue ever… Or may be a bit weird when they are, on one hand dismissing our argument “Why does Anet insist on forcing content on the [PvE] community that we clearly dont want?” here in such a mature fashion but bringing the same argument (Its a quote. They just wrote about the wvw community, not the pve) in other comments..

Why I havent bought mine? Because I still need 9 levels and I DONT LIKE PVP. That includes wvw. So basically I have putt off the plan of leveling up for when I have every single other component of the legendary except this.. (And also was leveling up indirectly via purchasing wvw-educational supplies which help leveling up without having to set foot into wvw)

I dont really know how leveling up in wvw works, whether you get xp for having points and where you get xp from anyways.. Wanted to look whether I could use tome sto level um my global wvw level.. But that wasnt really important because I still need enough t6 for might n magic and I still need 146 silver doubloons which I farm JPs for atm.
So over the time this woulda slowly increase my wvw levels n stuff and if that hadnt i just would try to kill the animal enemies there (warg or something? ) and look at vistas n stuff. Doing pve basically. But this decision just took any motivation towards the game out of me tbh. So, eh. I dont have any other options anyway so I just try to get through with as little risk and effort possible.

MilkCarton.4087:

Jim Hunter.6821:

So it’s okay for WvW players to be forced into PvE but not vice versa?
okay.

PVE players are extremely entitled nothing new here. However, it’s better for us to be forced into pve than the other way around. At least this way, they won’t be stinking up wvw or spvp. If we give them what they want, maybe they will stay out of our game mode permanently.

ell in the last threads i saw mostly wvwrers saying :ha, your dumb luck, we have to suffer while enough pvers like the guy here or myself(and i read from a few others) will gladly advocate for a way for wvwers to get the stuff they want without having to slog through map completion n stuff.

so, who is entitled? The person who wants everybody else to eel miserable or to just eff up or the one who doesnt want anyone to feel miserable, would love a solution not only for themselves but for others (but still wont act as if stuff that isnt fun now is magically fun because one is forced to suffer through it and when suffer, than with a grin? )

Jim Hunter.6821:

Firmicute.3876:

because we dont wanna do the kittening kitten pvp kittenit. pvp isnt less pvp if its a bunch of blobs on a bigger map,

Wut?

we do not want the [expletive 1-adjective][expletive 2 noun] pvp, [interjection] (anger because) pvp is not less pvp if its one big group against another.
(Wvw is still pvp no matter how hard it tries to look like pseudopve. I hate pvp. I dont care for pvp. I will not magically start to care for pvp &all the etiquette and all just because some … person decided that I will now have to or be buggered.)

yes please? Or just give every mode aces to every stuff just by playing that mode.. make expensive/good stuff harder to get so you can show your skills pertaining to the mode.

you didnt have to do it before? Happily we can buy the tokens from the ah and dont have to slog through this.. well until now, that is

lol, yeah hate posts from people who are happy to just kill people who are worse than themselves (because we dont wanna do the kittening kitten pvp kittenit. pvp isnt less pvp if its a bunch of blobs on a bigger map, no matter the dressing. and especially with the technical problems atm it looked on a video like you were watching stop motion animation.. )
So, yeah, I am sorry that I dont wanna be the "lie-down-get-shanked-easily-victim for you when I am forced to slog through the bog of eternal stench

MilkCarton.4087:

Ahh, the gw2 community. Reminds me of one of the reasons I stopped playing for 2 years. I come back to find the exact same toxic PVE players ruining wvw, spvp and even PVE for everyone else. Reminds me of the karma trainers in eotm.

I wish I could earn gold and craft all the exotics and ascendeds I need by doing spvp or wvw but I can’t. Should I now go sabotaging raids, dungeons and events to spite other people? Absolutely not

No but its wasnt like the game never forced you to do those in the beginning just to decide that, eh, NOW you will have to do them. Suddenly.. With a warning a month ago (WITHOUT DATE) in a 17.000 words document.

but still..
I think that, yes, you should be able to earn and craft all stuff you like by playing the gamemodus you like. So why not campaign for that? Why not campaign for more reward tracks that give you better options and gold to earn what you like?
Why not a reward track that gives 1/nths scrap of exploration +x /ressource from kitten +exo weapon fitting for the area

(like: Reward track:ascalon would give you special herbs n stuff you can get there and maybe exo that would drop from an enemy there and mats and the scrap of exploration..) So you would have to do all tracks and would need to give around the same time one would take to 100% the map.. and then you would have your 2 gifts of exploration and hopefully similar gold and loot..

like, why not?

well. Its not really my problem, innit? I can stand afk and repair some wall or build siege until the depot is empty to have participation and to then go afk again and do something thats fun.

I mean, yeah, one person taking away a slot on a full t1 map wont be much a problem..I think? So lets just hope there arent much of us.. Which i find hard to believe seeing this feedback. Then you just have to live with people doing the minimalist of work and taking away space from people who do wanna pvp truly.
But hey, at least its just 8-10 hours.. So you may have the problem for a week.. I will try to not take away important queue-space on peak time, but I do what I must do while trying to minimize my own annoyance and anger. (but I wont be rude. Just doing what I have to do then afk until i have to do it again. snore )
Soo. Shouldnt be a problem then. I hope. We whine. we afk and when we get the kitten we came for we will go away to be happy again…
Well until the next batch of people that want to do a leggy come in, take space, afk or build stuff just to get participation.

Electro.4173:

Azure Prower.8701:

Sounds like Foxfire cluster all over again.

Not really like Foxfire Clusters at all. Actually, Foxfire is relatively common all things considered.

The closest analogue is probably Passion Flowers, and even then Freshwater Pearls seem rarer than those ever were as well.

Considering that Passion Flowers were deemed so rare that they went ahead and gave dedicated nodes just to allow people to gather them somewhat reliably… yah, I think Freshwater Pearls are far too rare currently. Something you need 25 of just for basic gear like upgrades shouldn’t be so rare that the price on the TP is twice that of even the most expensive lodestone.

two words.

Maguuma lillies.. 0,88% droprate in the limited data thats available to the wiki.
around 17 gold PER PIECE

(and silver doubloon are at 3 now i think…)

I have a few pearls, I sold some.. But I think I got them from chests more than from mussels..

I have around 38 black diamonds too. but not a single maguuma lilly. Not a single one

KalasDelRio.8921:

Y tung.1942:

There we go again, a typical WvW guy who has this in his/her mind ‘’If I want to make a PVE LEGENDARY I have to do pve so you pve people also have to suffer and do WvW to be fair’‘.
In the first place we’re talking about pve legendary, if you only care about WvW why would you even consider going for it at the first place? So far I have not yet seen any only focused on wvw guy being able to afford a legendary by just doing wvw (gold wise). Since you barely get any gold from doing that stuff. I’m pretty sure you’ll find a lot of wvw people who has a legendary that actually either spent real life money for gems/gold exchange or went into pve to get the amount of gold they need for the gift of fortune/precursor. So at some point you’ll have to do pve anyways unless you are ready to spend some RL money.

Do you really think WvW players want to run about in PvE to get the Gift of exploration? Why can’t we have a vendor to be able to get that easily?

Oh yeah, that’s right, ’cause you have to earn it. Same deal applies for this Gift now. 500 badges was easy to get if you just ran the eotm train. Which you can still do now btw.

yes, so why not, instead of doing the old: If i have to suffer, so will you-schtick lets do the Yo anet, give the wvwers an option to earn the gift of exploration by playing wvw-schtick? Make like 1/4 of a gift as one endpart of a certain reward track (or one Nth- so that you will have to play comparative hours to get them) and maybe gate some items behind events that the wvwer has to do to earn it?

I don think: “we have to suffer, now you have to suffer too” is the solution when a better way would be: “please tailor the stuff so that we have multiple ways (similar in effort) to succeed and get the items and mats we need to make a legendary.”

well maybe he needs a gift of battle too?

hmn, sounds nice unless we get too much and you have 2/3 of a blob standing just around while the others work their kitten off..

This change is like.. bad for all

LONGA.1652:

Oh boy another page from manifesto goes to the bin. Also WvW tournament AP Season 1 falshback.

Yep.. There werent happy with my implication that the great idea of “you dont have to grind to have fun” and “you dont have to suffer through something you dont like to have fun” would be a bit..hmn.. untrue now? (k. wasnt written nicely, all in BIG letters.. it still. A lie is a lie. Even if it was truth once, the thruth of that big ideal is now gone, however not nice it feels to hear that.

Aeristoreine.9351:

Copying pasting from my other post which I think is very useful for consideration with regards to this change.

Lets all look at it from the wvw perspective whether the change is helpful to the community or could it revive wvw back to its glory days

By implementing reward tracks:
Players just need to cap participation and can just afk. We are not motivated to join on a commander/wvw raids to capture objectives. Is this a meaningful change? No. It adds more time to legendary crafting and there is no practical benefit to wvw in any sense. We just invited more afkers and trollers into wvw, thinking its gonna help them in their raids.

so can you explain how I do that? I have a nice set of Dvds I wanted to watch anyways (angels in america. Really great thing, cant recommend enough unless you think gays are icky)
So I planned to just do the stuff i need to get the participation High enough to get a growth and then to maybe do something every 15 minutes to not get kicked and to not let the participation fall down..

So, how do I do that? Do I run with a blob, attack something and then when participation is high enough just run back into my safe area and stand there around while doing something that interests me and is fun (like watching that excellent play I mentioned)

bad enough that I am on a really full server that usually even has a queue of like.. 10 peopl up to 30 ..
But hey, not my problem? I am forced to do this stuff that i never wanted to do to grind for a thing in a game that so loves to congratulate itself for being ungrindy. yeah..lol)
and well.. lets see how well my server ( we are in the top 5 in europe)..)will work with enough people standing around building walls or something

kamedin.4698:

Can you just give them the same model/underwear that the males have so we can’t tell the difference between them? (I don’t why the female charr/asura have human like underwear when they don’t have the same parts for them.)

I think that one was answered in the charr-design-document too- american (and other repressed) society seem not to be ready to have the female charr without the weird cloth.. Just because they seem to associate female with sexy and that stuff..
I´d like it too. But I am german and during summer you will see naked people just runa round here and nobody cares. Because why would one. I have seen enough t n d n a so i know how it looks like. No biggie (mostly.. )

how about:make EVERY armor a togle between male and female FOR ALL.

yes we will see pink norns (with bunny ears) in pink tutus? (gaaay? Yes! More)

But we have those all the time anyways.. pink norns with pink staches, scallywag and maybe one short trouser(does something like that exist?) who have the glittery backpack and the princess-wand-skin..

Like.. Its okay or not?
You would make so many people happy with such an option.. The people who wanna look a bit funny/weird, the people who love them their sexy outfits (feathered undergarment on men: yes please. Why should only female models look like exotic dancers? )
and the people who dont love their sexy outfits (or like them on some characters and on others not like myself) will be happy because then my gruffy scarfaced nornwarrior can run around without the weird gaps in the phalanx armor or the weird holes between the boots and the tassels on the carpax armor (my favorite)
or the bladed armor (would be my favorite if there wasnt the stupid hole focusing the view ON HER CROTCH.. why? )

so.. like…. if you wanna make a ton of people happy out of a myriad of reasons.. try to shape the armors so they fit all models and give us the option to toggle male/female versions (if its too much work then just do it for the chest, legs/shoes first)

like that would be so great… People like me who mostly play female chars (and I dont wanna have to play male chars not to look stupid, sry) can choose between sexy and modest, people who like looking funny or weird can now run around roleplaying as drag queens n kings… (howsabout giving us false beard skins? that would be great. And ironic. scnr )

pleeeeeasseee????
I think really this would solve so many problems.. because I can have my warrior without boobcups and my mesmer will be the sexiest dazzling sylvari around.. and e´rrbody is happy.
everybody gets what they want.

yes It may take time and stuff but If you are able to make a rule/program/somethin
that all designers go when they design their stuff to be sure the toggling will work… then I bet my kitten that you wont have people crying about the weird sexualized female armors and others wont whine because the love the weird sexualized female armors..because everybody can have what they want without having to alter or change the character they play (only because the game restricts you so much(gender gated clothing and haircuts) in a game that should be about looking great/sexy/bada** while saving the world)

Shademehr.1397:

Counterpoint:
I’m a WvW’er and am forced to do PvE map completion, which takes days, to get a Gift of Exploration. You complainers can’t be kitten d to take five hours out of your busy schedule to do a bit of WvW for a Gift of Mastery? Like ermagerd

well the solution shouldnt be :eff you I got mine but:give the wvwers some alternative to this so they dont have to slog through stuff you dont like. Not:I have to suffer so you have too but.. why do we have to suffer? Thats not fun.
Not fun isnt something I´d like connected to GW2.. But it seems like they are trying hard to do it anyways^^

yes. Please make it unique, so that it isnt just a male as default thing like in most armors.. because I would still like that but I see that people want to look special and different.

So please, take away the cups and make something unique for them..

I liked that they arent as the kahjit of elseweir where the female kahjit were just humans with tail and fut ad a catface.. Female charrs are fiece and dont look like stupid exotic dancers (unlike most other fame models. either exotic dancer or supermodel and 3,4 semi old faces.. ) Nah, the cahrr looked like fierce beats..Warriors, no time for stupit tifftaff.. Charr and asuras are great because they are different and different from the usually stupid the beast(male) and the model (female) design that 890% of fantasy race design everywhere else..

but hey, anet, great job kittening that up..

/s

Well. eir had a stupid armor and faolain was a baddie but still intelligent enough to see a beatiful wide flesh-window that almost screamed “INSERT SWORD HERE for excellent kill”
So.. If they had designed a non stupid armor, like.. maybe something sensible she may have lived…

but eh,, Like where would one get the cheap drama that comes with killing off some character that you are used to ? They would need to get good authors and.. thsi here is videogames.. Good writing is something 99& of games fail at horribly.. Anet isnt the worst but their writing is just meh… Its okay, it does what its supposed to and you ignore it most of the time.its nit intrusive most of the time which is nice.

Stitch.1794:

Ok, fair point, but it’s a far lesser evil than killing Phlunt for either of the reasons.

Oh, no I wouldnt kill phlunt.. There are enough mordrem who´d do that for me and, hey a hero sometimes cant save all and saving a young genuischild over a old rich guy who had his nice life… well its a hard decision, mate, but you may understand…and also taimi is a friend… So… Well it happens`shrug

Well. I have to do it the other way around… I need to be a certain level to be able to buy this thing for 500 badges.. its only 14 tho.. so you have my condolences

Noriya.9321:

Tried 2 nights in a row with different groups to beat Hearts and Minds. Ran into every reported bug. Mordy wouldn’t stun at the final rifts stage. He would freeze solid when you beat him and the game wouldn’t progress. (Had to relog to unstick it.) Gliding was impossible at the last gliding stage, as kept getting knocked out of the air and onto the platforms over and over. Couldn’t rez from platforms. Tried with 4, and then 2 people. Same issues. I am really disheartened because I need this for a collection and I want to see how it ends!! We tried 4 times, about 2.5 hours in total and each time the game bugged out and we could not beat it because Mordy froze or was not stunned, and we didn’t have enough people left to cc him.

This really needs to be fixed. The expansion has been out for 2/3 of a year now and I can’t complete the story quest. Please fix!

I can only second that.. Tried to fly, wasnt able, died on the floor, weren’t able to rally from the smothering shadows, NPCS werent able to rez me..

I soloed that kitten and now I have to do it all again because they can even put a )/"%/§/%§ checkpoint in?
(why not after each rift phase? I mean, for the bunny-fight in city of hope we were able to just kill it over and over because the health didnt go down, but here… the whole fight thats already unnecessarily long with the invuln-phases and mordy putting aoes under the rift….

uuuugh

also

MOVEMENT in prized possessions is as bugged as a swarm of locusts after a long drought…
Sometimes my character freezes in place, makes the running animation but behaves as if shes running against an invisible wall. This also happens during gliding with the result of death.
It happens at certain parts, sometimes when touching a pustule.. I though maybe I´ve hit L, but nah, when I run around before F bashes through the left wall my character can run normally.
the 2 skill, dragon surge doesn’t work while gliding in 90% of the time, usually NO skill is available when I glide.. So pressing 1→ every skill is grey and locked out until I land back on the floor and wait. after a second delay the skills are usable again.
Sometimes when F doesnt instagib me again my character suddenly remembers how running works-and then just explodes into a pustule (because of frantic pressing of WWWW)

I have never even died enough to break any of my armor to red UNTIL this mission.. even city of hope and that wasnt so bad, I died 2 times during the strength trial, one time it reset on me because I did the bad crime of being too near to the door.

but during that mission..? I think its at fault for around 30 to 40 deaths..I stood in me undies after that.. And I am not the only one..

PLEASE FIX THIS: because its not fun, its frustrating when your character suddenly runs in place, gets hit while being OUTSIDE of the red aoe-border or after jumping with 1 has NO movement…
as if.. yeah, you hop with 1 and then the game basically forgets that acceleration exists.. Usually when jumping down something&gliding it transports you forward, but it seems as if skill 1 cancels any kind of forward momentum and basically puts an invisible wall in front of me..

its like slowly gliding against a surface but not colliding, so the glider stays open but doesn’t move forward. only down.

I havent even found one single lilly… But around 20+ pearls and now 33 black diamonds and i have around 23 flax blossoms…

and I have the 20% gathering guildboost…

(some are in ogre village, those are usually easy to get. Another cluster is often in the SCAR area where the wreckage is)

This stuff happens to me as engineer and as revenant..(well those are basically my “main” classes)

yep.. Have the problem too but weirdly ONLY on certain characters…

btw, some parts of the spike-area are darker too, especially the corners. Lightingc hanges when you step out though.

one small asura and charr but on a sylvari mesmer the lighting was okay..

I run that one daily so I will make a screenshot with every chara I run through…

atm I run that with gamma of 2,0… not really any other solution there :/

egzius.9031:

No no no, no PVP. PVE content, but where players fight other players in PVE manner. Such as racing to get crystals, like we have now, possibly doing events in parallel to see who is faster and better, you know, standard stuff, but make a winner and a loser side and reward the winner and punish the losers. Why should everyone get all the rewards? Make them at least slightly exclusive.

this post feels rather /s for me.. But still, there are weird people everywhere…Eve wouldnt exist otherwise..

Why shouldn’t everyone get all the rewards? How does your method improve the PvE game mode for the people who currently play PvE?

Because, when you don’t get all of the loot, you think you didn’t do something correctly, so you improve. When you get all the loot, you think next time I’ll do at most the same. That’s how regression starts.

But why should i have to improve? I play the game to relax and have fun, not to train something or to be the best.

Why is your idea of the game the one that is right when it harms so many more people while our idea of games is better because it harms less because almost everyone can get what they want, be happy and the one who like more have the options..

It is a game. Not the olympics. and especially his game is-very clearly-been founded on the base Idea that every user deserves to be entertained.

So if either
a)100 people can be entertained and 10% of those may have to work harder to give themselves challenges for their entertainment(isnt that what you want anyways?)
or
b) 10 people can be entertained(because even some winners dont really care for being “the bestes evar” while 50 suffer , why should anyone choose the option to take happiness and fun away from other people just because a small number of people can now feel better as a direct result of the unhappiness of others..

so.. I dont really get why you think people have to be the best or even be better because your idea of what constitutes a proper game are not the only one and not the only valid one. You are in a game that wants to be accessible. This the devs stated from the start.
Its pretty egoistical to expect them now to basically harm the fun of other people to satisfy your needs over almost everyone else. (and you even have access to a challenge -> PVP, soloing group content etc) , so it seems its not nly about bragging rights, innit?

I had the problem too but then.. I have played piano and tried to remember to not have the finger on the spacebar all the time so i can just hit it once.
It just takes a bit of practice but being able to bind a special key to open&close it would maybe help people who have a bit of problem with their motorics

Lol, I died as sylvari while the NPCs just stood around doing nothing during the last phase.. Couldnt rally from smothering shadows too.. Maybe thats another bug? If not they should implement it, playing this kitten alone is annoying and tedious enough but getting downed in the last 5th of the fight and nobody tries to rezz you/you cant rez from shadows and have to fight the whole kittening thing again is just not fun.
But I now got my masteries so I luckily dont have to finish it any time soon.

Well. We pay up to 5 gold for one piece and cant salvage it nor put it into the mystic forge, while its possible to do that with the karma things… The weapons are also just yellow rares, so they are really really expensive while being absolutely subpar for any level 80 character anyways..

Could you change that? Either dont make them as expensive as they are or give us the opportunity to salvage them for ectos…
Because now I have to manually destroy weapons for which i have spent around 30 gold while we can salvage the loot we get for free(our time)… that is really not consistent..

and also.. It is possible to salvage cultural armor.. why not the order armors and weapons??

What was the date and time you encountered this bug on:
→Thur 01.06.16 around 19.45

What guild were you representing and was it the guild running the mission, or another guild?
→ [LDS] (legendary dragon slayers, a german guild)

What race(s) did you participated in, when you didn’t get personal rewards?_
→ Bear lope, lornars pass. I finished the race, got every flag (→ if you dont you wont get transformed back anyways) didnt die once. (unlike other guildmembers who took part, died, finished like me but got the bouncy chest. )

Have you gotten participation for these races in the past and received rewards?
→ yep. Without problem, this here was first time this happened.
I had other bugs, like the game not recognizing that I died &transformation ended so Traps would still trigger on me and I would be incapable of using any waypoints (therefore wasn’t able to rez at a WP until I re-logged.)

When your guild runs the race, are you in the same map as the rest of the guild, or did you end up in your own map?:
→I started the race on a different map first.
I was in a squad but my guildies were on the same map but different IP/instance..
I started the run and then stopped because they asked me to come over to their map because their Race had 7 minutes open while the other had only 2.) So I stopped transformation and swapped maps and then restarted the race and finished it successfully.
The run after that-devour burrow was successful.

btw THAT ONE HAS AN INVISIBLE WALL… since now how long?? It forces you to run through the first big trap (not the spikes but the falling stones) /dodge through it..
I always though it was just my potato not loading the level fast enough (and therefore me colliding with an invisible rock or something… (which isn’t anything new) but at that day somebody else said it was an invisible wall.. Well its there a long time, could you at least dress it up nicely? Put on some stone, willya?

How many guild members are running the race with you? Hmnh, idk, 6 or 7 at that day.

Are you part of a squad or party? Or are you participating without a group? → squad. We run this together but usually only for the personal bonus because sometimes we aren’t enough,s o everybody runs to get their chest and then we try together with another guild at another day.

The race failed in the sense that we hadn’t enough people to finish it, so it were only 7 out of 15 successful runs, but that never mattered beforehand.

I was a bit late→ I joined while the race was already active, idk whether that makes a difference.

I’ve had a bit of a bad day so I apologize for being a bit blunt, but these “LS fights are too hard!” posts have been springing up since Hidden Arcana (Glint’s Lair) and I’m a bit fed up with them.

Literally the only way I could imagine these fights being difficult is if you’re 1) Having technical issues, 2) Have a disability that limts your ability to react and/or process information or 3) Have extremely limited experience with, not just MMOs, but video games in general.

Don’t get me wrong, I sympathize with the frustration of not being able to beat an instance/mission/level on your first few attempts, but these fights are. not. hard. Even just a few minutes (or moments in some cases) of observation reveals that obvious mechanics are obvious. And if you don’t want to do that there are numerous third party gaming sites that publish both text based and video based guides detailing the strategies these bosses require. Hell, Dulfy usually has her guides up the day after an update is released. Sometimes even sooner!

I don’t expect every (or even most) players to be able to solo “Wicked Rodeo” or anything, but I for one don’t want to see Anet’s content designer’s shackled because the GW2 playerbase is too lazy to transition out of 2+ years of “stack and autoattack.”

Again, I’m sorry for being a bit sharp but the game is finally becoming not just interesting, but respectable. Something I can show my friends and not get laughed at…

well, just have a framerate that saways from 20 to 30 in random intervals and since the last 3 patches lagspikes from 400 to 4000 (yes, fourthousand)

doing anything precise during those spikes?pft.. yeah, bam half Hp away because of a hit during such a spike.. Which I will now see in fast forward.. disorienting it is.
The fps-weirdness went worse after hot, before i was able to get it around 50… now, well I am happy with 30 and I havent changed a thing in the options, all drivers are new etc.. Just do A JP or such a fight with it.. the more stuff happens the worse it gets, for fights like teq it can tank up to 5fps… And during the cavefight happens a lot of stuff..
I mean, my laptop seems so bad that I cant see the sandpools from that centaurfight for example.. They are just not there, so its random luck and my memory that would help me avoid harm…

So, there may be technical issues that make this kind of precision-work notably harder and totally RNGbased.. and its gotten worse after hot.

So In an utopia I wished maybe the game could see that some users have kittenty ping and worse FPS and would give more time to react based on that rate of information(which it can measure or it wouldnt be in the menue)

Legendary weapons are content and guess what Mike, it will give us more content than your pathetic living story. It took me a day to go through Season 2, how long will your Season 3 last?

I supported you from GW1 and now you have destroyed the last bit of hope and respect I had for your company. There should be grounds for a compensation because I payed for legendary weapons and I am not getting them. I wish I could truly vent my frustration but I would get banned with the amount of expletives.

Scrap that expensive Pro League, scrap new money grabbing gem store skins and scrap the new expansion. Finish this half shipped expansion first!!!!!!!!!!

I needed a bit more.. Because their patch introduced this progress blocking bug which made any progress impossible for.. idk, 2,3 weeks?

Well. it seems like the eyes were bigger than the stomach? Please dont promise kitten you cant deliver. and first repair stuff thats old and, even if its trickling, deliver WHAT YOU PROMISED please…
I mean, ugh, do it even like the backpack atm, over time.. and pull people from doing new stuff until you fixed the old..

I mean you cant build a house on still not hardened ground or put a door into a crumbling wall. And you cant say that we get a house and then just deliver the raw stuff, walls, ground and such, but no insulation so its too cold and warm water isnt working either.. the winds flowing through the cracks in the wall, some of which even break up after each step of building (because the wall arent ready yet and cant hold enough weight…)and need to get fixed needing time and resources.

Dont start to buy a greenhouse or a new house yet after you havent finished the old one^^

NAh, its not very often visible, this was just a "wtf, dont they know physics? " (i mean the mages.. feathered armor and such you could say that it sticks because of magic…9

its the female version of the 2nd tier human cultural armor. Has underoob. I think the pitfighter has one too… and well. the winged and feathered set (and the carpax and some other.. one of the female thingy norn cultural is also basically a fur-bra for majestic breasts) are basically cloth glued to breasts..
I´d like that option for all..
male mages should also wear the funny short shorts and the fluffy strips of cloth.. but they have no speedos but regular pants.. just giving both options.

(I mean I dont care about the stuff other players wear. They can look as sensible or ridonculous as they like. I mean we have pink norns with bunny ears.. So they would look even better with for example the feathered set as female (or just compare the masquerade set model for male with the female..)

I´d just like to have the choice for my character and I´d like that choice for all regardless of the gender of our characters.)
