Guild Wars 2

What was happening? And why do you guys keep asking for solo queue?

Thank you so much! I just wish you guys would’ve let us know at the end of Season 4

I just want Damask Patches since I’m assuming doubloons and Blade Shards are going in for sure. Thank’s for the “pssssst” Lindsey! And thank you for hearing me out

What should happen is we should get a bunch of players to clog up the queue and just AFK until they fix WvW.

I had 0 problems with WvW before. I hardly played the mode but when I did I had no ill will towards it. Even WvW Map completion was no biggie to me.

I love, and I mean LOVE the new reward track rewards, at least I thought I did. I thought they were a great idea on paper but in practice it’s just so bad. You would think that the goal would be to get people to play WvW and get something cool with it and not make it into an AFK fest.

Ideally what should’ve happened for PVE players who needed to get their Badges of Honor for the Gift of Battle is to show them the new Daily potions that filled your reward track so you could get the new armor all the while building up badges to get your Gift of Battle.

I was very excited to see the new armors and excited to see them add WvW reward track potions. I would’ve played WvW just for the new rewards. But now I can’t get them because instead I’m going to have to keep my reward track on Gift of Battle until I get all the legendaries I want. And it wouldn’t be so bad if actually playing WvW caused that bar to move up for everything that I did. Taking down a camp, killing an enemy player, capturing the forts and castles should drastically push your reward track instead I can just sit back and watch some YouTube videos instead of having fun in Guild Wars 2.

Honestly why would WvW players even want to have more PVE players in there anyway who don’t know what they’re doing and are just going to AFK and take up a WvW player’s spot?

I want to be able to use my 1000 Badges of Honor that i was saving to get my my Gift of Battle.

Also rotating borderlands.

It’s cute that they added the reward tracks and at first I thought it was nice that there was another way to get the gift of battle for those that wanted an alternative then I read that my 918 badges are basically useless to me now as I don’t do WvW much. I’m too busy doing HoT stuff and now I have to start WvW again if I want to finish making my 2 Legendaries (Astra/Moot)

Is there any way an Anet could be convince to keep the old method available to players? I don’t see a reason why we can’t have both ways of obtaining. It wasn’t broke before so why mess with it?

Even if they decide to not change it back to the way it was maybe they could give us a few months of a grace period for people who want to use their badges for a Gift of Battle.

It takes a lot of convincing for Anet to rollback a change like this and I don’t expect them to listen to us until months from now but if we don’t say anything then things will stay this way.

The only reason why you guys are having trouble coming up with new Weapons Skins and fancy effects is because you decided to go with Precursor crafting and the goofy “Legendary Journey” quests. If you guys wanted to you guys could just drop that aspect of the game and just drop Precursors via RNG and just design the some new “Gifts of BLAH BLAH” to go with these new weapons. Problem solved.

I’d like to see some older back pieces get glider skins. Light of Dwanya would would be a great example. And I don’t want to have to buy it via Gems. This backpiece is already expensive to craft so to have buy it with gems would be a lot to ask. I figure if you already crafted the backpiece then taking it a place to unlock the glider version of it w ould be great.

Sounds to me like you guys already know of some exploit bugs that wont be fixed at launch.

Yeah I dont notice anything on that slot either.

I’ve noticed 2 things, dont know what upper left hand dye box changes on my sylvari AND sometimes the dress would change colors and I guess it has soemthing to do with shaders. I used Wine dye on it and it would be mostly purple but every once in a while it would go pink.

I was doing Story with my mesmer to get her into the Priory Order a few days ago and just about ever major story cutscene had at least 1 missing audio section.

It’s set to Shinigami time. Only Ryuk and Rem can tell you how much time you have left.

I haven’t experienced any game difficulties since I installed Windows 10. AMD 7970 here. Haven’t noticed a scratching sound. Are you guys all using onboard audio? Digital headsets? Sound cards? It’ll probably help with the troubleshooting if you identify what you’re using for sound. I haven’t had to run the game in compatibility mode. Also, what are your sound settings in game?

I’ve seen people talking about this using onboard sound. I’m actually using an Sound Blaster Z soundcard.

See my post on how to stop the scratching sound.

A couple of things I’ve noticed since switching to windows 10

When you start the game up in normal mode there a loud scratching noise. I found work around for this by switching to compatibility mode (Windows 8 ) and it that would be 90% okay BUT another bug arises where the UI starts to flicker when in Windowed Mode and only in Windowed Mode.

What other Windows 10 bugs have you guys found?

- Loud Scratch sound at Start Up
- UI flickering when in Fullscreen AND compatibility mode

It’s an issue with Windows 10 but it also an issue with Guild Wars 2 because it only seems to happen with this game. I figured out how to stop it by right clicking on the gw2 shortcut then go to properties, and the compatibility tab change it to windows 8.
