Im on the same boat.
I had NEVER had any problem with my low end pkittenil HoT.
Then it became much, much worse: random dc’s happened. Specially on HoT zones. But, y’know, I even managed to overlook those. Tried to do the less zerg-intensive part of metaevents. Was fine. Managed to get t4 on VB and even finish DS. Full tries on Chak meta without dc’ing.
Then this patch came.
Now its literally unplayable. Crashes every two minutes. I can BARELY play PVP, and even there, the game sometimes freezes.
This is getting to my nerves.
I MIGHT forgive ANet if they decide to be NICE and give everyone a free item of choice from the merchant. Its not costly for them, everyone gets something, and we shut up. No big deal, i think.
I’ve been playing Gw2 since day 1. My gf is now playing, little by little, since the game became F2P. I will not get HoT – and I seriously doubt she will – if the business model is this: prepare a complete disaster of an event, then do nothing about it.
How am I supposed to encourage my friends to play THIS, when the event I was so hyped about turned to be an utter grind? How can I cheer for my gf to participate in the event in Diessa knowing she can’t buy the gold expensive rewards even if she farms the tokens? You are making this harder.
On the other side, if ANet shows their heart, and ask for forgiveness by giving out a token or appreciation for players, at least i’ll be able to say: hey, dude, look, they failed BUT they are courageous enough to deal with it.
About the event: rewards should scale with the map, not individual participation. As it has always been in Gw2 major events. If you want to cater an event to low level F2P players, 10 g is a hefty amount. Rewards should not be given just in a specific moment, to avoid DC’d players from losing all rewards: check Silverwastes → a chain of map-combined efforts that keep leading to rewards.
Gimme that 69 for Narzuk , EU player.
Eeaster is coming!
Well they did make it so that finishing people off the ground gets you a lot of points.
That means ideally a good guild can kill a whole PUG blob and farm a lot of points.
In general, I think the system works. There are ways to do everything.
