Guild Wars 2

Update: I’ve adjusted my game settings to run most things on medium, rather than high. The game is now running at ~30 fps rather than ~22, which is not too amazing of an increase, but the Trading Post UI has gained a substantial increase in fps and is now actually pleasant to use.

How come when my game is running around 25fps the trading post is literally operating at less than 1 frame per second? It is such a pain in the bum to use, it’s an atrocity. Also UI wise I do not consider it an improvement over the old one.

While no rewards was an error, yes this is the style of world-scale events, or rather has been so up until now. Pretty fun no? No, I know.

I’m out. I don’t care if they’re giving a million blooms once they fix this. I’m done running around being too late to get event credit most of the time. Games are supposed to entertain, not frustrate.

Word, gw2 world events are the most frustrating brain-dead activities I’ve ever encountered in a game. Which is really surprising for a game that “breaks down walls” and does so many other things incredibly well.

Even if there were no bugs the event is a complete copy paste idea of the scarlet invasion. It is the same event (with maybe a 1% alteration into 3 variants, one with catapults, one with shield generators, and one with bombs) for half an hour. Over and over and over again. Most fun I’ve ever had.

I was about to make a post regarding this when I was stopped by the forums being flooded after the Mordremoth invasion farce. I, on the other hand, think the article was written in an incredibly unprofessional fashion. Every sentence starts with “The Mordrem Guard, The Mordrem Guard, The Mordrem Guard”.

On top of that the attempt to keep immersion with “Worst of all for Pact forces, Mordremoth has an inexhaustible supply of all three Mordrem Guard commanders; when one falls in battle, the jungle dragon simply creates a new one with the same look, same name, and same deadly abilities as the one it replaced.” For real? That’s so childish and the most immersion breaking thing I’ve ever read.

I never suggested a change in the rules trogdor. And I’m sure you never get agitated, you’re just that zen.

My account recently got banned for 72 hours due to ‘unexemplary’ behaviour. I assume this means cursing. Which yes, I have done quite a bit over the last few days.
Though I would’ve much preferred to see a chat block system, where I am blocked from using public chats for 72+ hours, rather than blocking my whole account from the game. While yes in PvP I get easily agitated and let myself go too easily, but in general I help wherever I can and enjoy playing with other people.

Also, a warning system wouldn’t hurt. If you know you’re highlighted you tone down a lot quicker, rather than hearing nothing until the overlords are fed up with your crap.

I am not asking for an appeal, I’ll sit out the ban, but I still wanted to express my opinion where I think a public chat block would’ve been a better way to address the issue.

If anyone is still having problems with this guy, the regeneration food no longer works, but rejuvenation boosters still do the job.

Hence why I put ‘forces’ in brackets.
And I am not complaining about them charging you for it. In fact I find myself wanting to spend money on GW2 so badly yet I can’t really find anything I want to spend it on, loving the bear hat on my charr tho

I don’t think this is going to be a thing, for the sole reason that right now it ‘forces’ you to buy extra bag and banks lots which translate into $_$

Obsidian Sanctum is a jumping puzzle? Seems more like a dungeon.

You’re in for a treat, as long as you don’t get ganked it’s a fun one.

Try completing the Obsidian Sanctum during the morning (6-10am). I was able to complete it over a dozen times already in that time frame, as in my experience literally no one that is there at that time wants to fight (surprisingly but true I usually jump together with people from the opposing server).

Don’t even dream of doing OS in peace after noon :/

Looks like I’m not getting the flute anymore ..

The reason why people get so kitten ed off with this activity is that Adnul kittenstain is able to bypass the rules of Belchers bluff and just do whatever the kitten he wants. Which is a flaw on the design part if you ask me. Don’t expect people to enjoy (harder) content if the outcome is completely in the NPC’s hands (endless signature moves, Adnul’s water heals him for 2 drinks whereas the player’s water only heals for 0.5 drinks, etcetera).
We’re playing a game with rules versus an NPC that does not obey these, that is wrong.
Props to the voice over though, it is so good he kitten es me off to the mists and beyond.

Another big problem with Adnul is that he is REQUIRED to challenge the toad and therefore has to be done before the bazaar leaves. If Adnul had no time restricted achievements attached to him I would’ve left him to rot weeks ago. (I got him in the end, but I assume this is very frustrating for people that don’t have as much time on their hands and actually want to play the game, rather than a mini game.)

really Anet…. your curse filter replaces words with ‘kitten’…. I don’t know what else I should’ve expected tbh ….
