Guild Wars 2

I often see afk farmers in bloodfin lake

and according to their skills timing they are using timed macro

i’ve reported them as "botting", but i dont see their numbers to cut down

thus i have a question - is that legal?
Should i not report them?
Can i put my necro with macro there, without being afraid of being banned?

There’s no evidence of hate towards Cyrillic; lack of support isn’t the same thing.

---

In theory, ANet could add a bunch of different alphabets. The game is missing a small number of characters from kanji and cyrillic and of course it lacks anything in arabic or any number of other languages spoken by 100s of thousands or even millions of potential gamers.

Unfortunately, it’s not free for ANet to add them. They need to be rendered in a font appropriate for the game at several different sizes. QA is required. And they need to hire customer service experts who can make sure everyone on the relevant staff can identify when someone has tried to get around appropriating naming/chat rules by substituting letters.

None of that is necessarily difficult or really expensive; it’s just not free. So the community would have to give something else up.

Further, there’s very little benefit for ANet: how many more people will buy the game because it supports Cyrillic? of those who already paid, how much improved will they find the game, compared to other QoL changes that ANet might offer?

If you look at the supported alphabets, they include all the languages for which ANet has a language-specific server or localization: English, Spanish, French, German, Chinese. The exception: Korean, the home language used by ANet’s holding company, NCSOFT.

---

tl;dr adding characters isn’t free; ANet is unlikely to add more without a compelling business reason to do so.

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/Add-Cyrillic-Symbols/5464217

they have translated and adapted payment page
i think they have plenty of business reasons

TL;DR

GW2 support EVERY.SINGLE.CHARACTER. from UTF-8 table
http://www.utf8-chartable.de/
you can copy-paste any symbol from that table
EXCEPT CYRILLIC! (even chinese\japanese\korean, any of them! even ?)

Long version:

I see too much hate towards Russian culture in common: they are common enemies of players (there are location like “Molensk” – russian city SMolensk, some of them have russian names (Vlad, for example)), only our, russian, language is not supported for typing in chat

why so much hate towards Russian?

fun thing is, there is Only one thing translated to Russian language – payment page
with adapted to Russians pricesD

How is it called? Money dont smell? ))

— some fun moments —
i can type ? (that is communists sign http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/262D/index.htm) in game chat, but cant type communism in russian..
-- end —

please, dont anwser with “no technical ability”, old player do know hystory, when Anet were trying to disable cyrillic in GW1 (they succeded), that story just continues in GW2

I’ve created petition in case you’re looking if fan community is interested in that feature https://www.change.org/p/arena-net-add-custom-localization-possibility-in-guild-wars-2?recruiter=308657517&utm_source=share_for_starters&utm_medium=copyLink

Hello!

I know question is not about api, but that’s most technical forum here

I’ve searched forum for my answer, but didn’t find it.

Is there any opportunity to make custom localize files and use them as ingame subtitles, for example?

i think there are big communities, which want to help people, who don’t know english very well, so they could play and join them in game!

or, at least, is there anything we could use in client right now, and not get perma banned? )

Let’s slash together!
But first – let me join via matchmaking with people, who also likes just slashing things around, not point-capturing :c

and what about fair fight? sessions?
If i want to “start battle”, play a fair fight and go on with my business? ))

and lose battles -_-
naaah, i wanna “win” things & “slash faces” things altogether :c

sooo.. no answers for me..?
Anet, you’re breaking my heart :c

nah? noone cares?
Guys, if Anet don’t have dat thing in plans and we want it – we should have that thread in top until Anet officials won’t give us an anwser, but if noone cares…

i’m pretty curious about it
when you have more, then 1 map, or more, then 1 mode and have matchmaking – you would do some choice for “unranked” games, and make standart choice for “ranked” games, it’s pretty common practice

just do checkbox matchmaking – either “all in”, either “any” – i don’t mind waiting 10 mins more, but play what i really want to play, then play “ahh, whatever!” and don’t get enough fun

there really should be at least matchmaking with separate modes, and even better – separate maps

abc.5790:

if courtyard and maybe another tdm map have a separate queue, it’s all i will do forever and ever till the end of time.

Please, GOD, PLEASE!!! LET ARENA.NET TEAM SEE DAT POST, PLEASE!!!

As i’ve mentioned at topic head – custom arenas don’t solve that problem – noone playing there, only rank farming…
There should be opportunity to find maps with specific mode via matchmaking

it’s so uncomfortable searching deathmatch game, concluding i don’t wanna leave conquest games just because there isn’t normal opportunity to play my favorite mode (

Oh my god, i forgot how “piece” word is spelled x_x
shame on me…

(i’ve used word “peaces” instead of “pieces”, but then redactored it)

Q: Will there be an opportunity to join one specific map (or specific mode) with matchmaking?

Me and my friends don’t like conquest maps – we like deathmatchs!
The only thing we want to do – is to slash other people faces into pieces!
I think there are many among non-prof pvp guys, who think the same.

And custom arenas aren’t choice in that kind of situation – because it’s more simplier to push 1 button, instead of making filer… finding arenaaa…

Fox.3469:

Seriously are people still feeding the troll?
Game can’t fail until it launches, it’s as simple as that.

telling my own opinion, that doesn’t match with opinion of the most is trolling?

Don’t get me wrong, but there were 3 years since start of GW2, and i was really looking forward for this addon, but if the whole addon is that boring, or only 1 zone is interesting, like silverwastes, then… i don’t know… i love the idea too much :c

OP, this is the part I found perplexing in your first post. Do you really think that the devs spend all their time working like crazy to come up with different maps to release and think, “Well most of it is boring but one of our zones is interesting, so that should be good enough.”? I don’t see any dev ever saying about their work, “Come on everyone, we know all these maps blow so let’s try to make what we did not boring.”

I can’t see anyone developing any game and thinking that any part of it sucks. They think it is ALL cool. I realize that “great” and “interesting” are in the eye of the beholder but I’m not sure if you do.

And that also scares me a lot: if they created that zone, thinking “IT IS ONE OF THE GREATEST THINGS WE’VE EVER MADE”, then what will be other content..?

Um… Missing the point much? The devs enjoy what they make. MANY people enjoy what they make. It isn’t a poor map just because you think so. Every map is a favorite of someone. All maps are not going to please everyone. The point is that the devs set out to make a map they think will be fun for most.

The devs are also players, so they make maps that they know they would have fun playing on and try to incorporate what others have fun doing.

I am positive with every fiber in my body that your personal and sole enjoyment is the focus of any of their map making.

As someone above says, you play the game for fun. If you are not having fun, why are you playing it?

YES!, they are making game for “the most”, exactly!, that’s what i’ve been talking about.

i don’t say it is bad, i’m just saying that potencial of the game, because of what i’m trying to start to play again, is crying in the corner :c

LanfearShadowflame.3189:

You don’t play games for mechanics, at least you shouldn’t. You should play games because they are fun. (insert gasp of shock here) I know, novel concept is it not?

“But mechanics are what makes it fun!”
No, not true, though they can help. The ‘mechanics’ behind monopoly are boring as hell, but Monopoly itself can be a very fun game. It depends on an assortment of factors, not just the mechanics.

Not everything is going to be just like the silverwastes. Besides, there are people that really don’t like the way SW is done. So are you saying that Anet should listen to you, appease you, and tell those players to just go to hell? They don’t matter because they are not you, OP? Doesn’t work that way.

please don’t tell how should i have fun and why
i’m having fun my way, do you have smthn wrong with it? )

Well Yeah like the other ppls said , but also keep in mind its Beta still .it can be changed and we got just a little zone ,where we was able to play and so on ,also bugged events and other stuff.Anyways … those events felt kinda boring,except that sniping event , but ,if there are like 20 snipers.It feels like bird hunting or so , because most of the time you standed there and waited until it was done or some cheap mechanics got just extended for example I WAS thinking , when i bring supplies to those pact ppls .It would be worth for something , but ATM i can only say.Yeah it does !… but not like you was thinking.You spent some time there building it up and then , when the timer gone …. POOF! destroyed .I was like right …. supporting the pact helping them and the only kitteng thing they can do , was blowing everything up !?

Well this made it nonsense for me to do those events.So i was just running around and fighting against mushrooms and other stuff , which are a real challenge sometimes , but yeah , if those events are like that.

it for me kinda nonsense , because since i entered silverwaste events and so on.I kinda enjoy my work or the work with other players to defend something and working for a huge event called “Vinewrath”,but those kind of events on every map would be …. repetive and weird ? Also effortless … but still.Those verdant brink events ,WHICH we was able to test , was fun , but somehow a waste ,because there was no goal … you did them and done … but still its BETA . So let’s hope for more change and stuff and looking forward for a good HOT expansion , even if i have mixxed feelings about it.

For example the specs … some are really awesome and some are just like or atleast felt like ….“Ohh no we have to do something let’s throw some kitten in it and done… Poof! Dragonhunter done ! … i mean for what ? i dont get the hang with that class seriously or well with that spec.”

I mean 10 skills and one limited traitline ,which grant you access to a new weapon.it’s kinda ugh …. i would like to add another traitline or so , where you can select your elite spec trait .So you would keep your 3 chosen traitline and now can pick up ONE elite spec traitline , would be atleast cool for me .Also i mean it was 50 € we paid.Please give us some great stuff and not only 2-3 awesome specs and some decent ideas about guild hall and wvw….

Let’s see what will come next.

As Seera.5916 said – BWE is like a trailer for the film – whould you demostrate the boring part, expecting people to like it?

In their place i would demostrate cool part, leaving the coolest part to the late game

and if that was “cool” part…

It wasn’t boring to everyone though. In fact, it wasn’t boring to most people I spoke with. I’ve seen movie trailers that bore me from very successful movies and I’ve been very excited by movie trailers that bore my wife.

The fact is not every movie trailer can appeal to every person. You’re trying to make this sound like it’s objectively boring, when in fact, it’s just your opinion that it’s boring.

On the other hand, things were specifically removed from this so as not to ruin the story for people. I wish some movie trailers would do that.

the thing is- in gw2 i’ve seen 3 kind of people:
1) the ones farming something (grinding)
2) the ones enjoing game (i really don’t get why or how. But there are people enjoing free-to-play mobile city simulators, right?)
3) the ones trying to return to game, having faith, that game potential will find it’s place in game

and that’s why the discussion have place to be: not everyone want hard events, not everyone want easy ones

but i still can’t get: how do people see demostrated events interesting? you still just kill mobs, but have progressbar! it don’t have any difference with classic quests, how can anyone enjoy this?!
i don’t get it! but that doesn’t mean i am right or wrong – its just my opinion

I’ll tell you a secret, that might surprise you. The answer to your question about people enjoying the game, is the same as the answer to your problem with events. There are two types of players…those who focus on mechanics and those who focus on immersion. They’re not completely mutually exclusive, but they’re very different beasts. You sound like you’re more interested in mechanics, so those fights are all the same to you.

I’m more interested in immersion and those fights are very different to me. Fighting centaurs in a human area is completely different than fighting off the modrem and it’s not just because of mechanics. My character is doing something.

If you think of action movies, a hero moves from fight to fight, working his way up to the big bad guy. It’s always the same. This fight, that fight, this car chase that car chase. The specifics of each might be different, but it’s always sort of the same. People who like action movies don’t watch them for just the fighting. They watch them for the motivation for the fighting. They watch them to see this really bad guy get his kitten kicked. How is the hero going to overcome this obstacle. It’s the same in just about every action movie, but people still seem to go see action movies.

When I play in the open world and I do events, my character is doing those events. It’s not really RPing, because I’m not interacting with other humans. I’m immersing myself in the world and situation. It doesn’t matter that the fort was only freed a bit ago, when the centaurs attack, it’s might duty to help fight them off. I can enjoy that, and so can a lot of other people.

If you only focus on mechanics, you’re missing a rather large aspect of the game.

Hulkmaster.1724:

And yeah, i like gameplay, not story\lore things, it’s just it – i like to do something, not to watch

story part of.. EVERYTHING! in gw2 is pretty cool (but some of my story lovers tell me it isn’t good enough), but gameplay part (except of SW) looks like “kill 10 boars and there… won’t be 10 boars” “kill 10 majesctic boars so!.. they.. won’t.. kill farmers!”

about “if u focus on mechanics you’re missing some things” – yeah, maybe, but for lore\stories i read books – they are much more interesting; and i play games for gameplay, so yes, i play because of mechanics

The events themselves were interesting, but I found that I’ve seen them all within an hour or two.

However, you can’t judge whether something has failed when you haven’t even seen the complete version. You saw a beta.

Yeah, i’ve seen just beta version of map

But let’s try to remember bwe before release
Anyone do?

there were boring maps, like that one, and everyone though “naaah, its just a beta, after release we’ll see what its like!”

But after release every other zone were boring, like the ones demonstrated

and that’s why i’ve judging right after the beta, because it’s already been like it: boring beta = boring release

And yeah, i like gameplay, not story\lore things, it’s just it – i like to do something, not to watch

story part of.. EVERYTHING! in gw2 is pretty cool (but some of my story lovers tell me it isn’t good enough), but gameplay part (except of SW) looks like “kill 10 boars and there… won’t be 10 boars” “kill 10 majesctic boars so!.. they.. won’t.. kill farmers!”

there are really good events (i remember most of them from the 1 day, they could’ve been changed a little): all 6 statues chain events are really cool! (at the orr), SW is cool, but others… can’t remember other cool ones…

thats it – i hope zone won’t be boring as it look like right now, but at release it was exactly like i told: boring beta -> boring release

Except that you had exactly none of the temples in Orr in the GW 2 beta, because you couldn’t get to Orr on those betas. The events that you think were really cool, many of them weren’t in beta. I don’t think we got any further than Gendarran Fields in the Guild Wars 2 BWEs.

you are absolutely right!
but…
99% of content was like beta
and 1% was not
and Sw were added much later

I say it one more time: GW2 potential is AWSAME!!
they are moving in right direction
slowly.. too much slow, but they do

but what i’ve seen in beta was boring
and i’m just afraid that, like it was on release, it will be -> 99% like beta, 1% not

And i WANT to be WRONG, i really do, but i’m still afraid

Okay. I didn’t find the beta boring at all. The mobs were harder than in earlier zones, the new skills were a lot of fun, gliding was awesome.

Sorry you found it boring, no idea why.

don’t know why are you sorry )
as i’ve already told: i like something, that i can feel with my bones – just standing and defending against mobs at one place.. no dynamic.. i though there will be something like " OMFG, DEF FAST, MOVE TO OTHER POINTS, FAST FAST FAST!" like it was at SW, but i was just standing at one place, rarely escorting soldiers… booring :c

day events were really to slow\long, “snipers rifles” event was either bugged (that everyone moved bottom and killed mobs with their own hands), either booring :c – i can kill some mobs out of any events, i want events to be events, not just standing and facerolling my skills -_-

make some tactics on them, at least! they will be fun at start, while people trying to get what to do!

Coulter.2315:

I left feedback saying I thought the ‘sniper rifle’ event you spoke of went on too long (so I agree with you there), that and the ‘lay eggs’ event was a little too long too. I enjoyed the rest though and it seems like you did too – remember they removed a lot of the story elements and events deliberately so we have more to see at launch.

Totally agree, but i’m REALLY afraid, that there will be just more “too long events”

Avascar.9237:

OP you’re not going to be persuading anyone if you just criticize the game “boring”, “guessable”, and “big and boring circle”.

Seriously.

Yes, i should’ve provided more details, but people, that played beta should understand me

The thing i want to see something.. global!.. in pve zones. It’s easy to describe every event like “kill mobs”, i know it’s not like it, but it’s what you do in events, and in SW there was “kill mobs, so they won’t kill your forts, so you will faster start the killing of big boss”

there was global goal fo the whole zone, so every movement you’ve did there – was to achieve the goal!

i haven’t found goal in bwe zone :c

i will spend money, and buy the most expensive packs, and then i won’t play for years, waiting for next addon, believing in"Now, when 5-6 years passed, they DO know how pve should look like! they will make it!"

This is why they have no incentive to work harder to please you.

but if i wont play → i won’t buy in-store items → they wont have profit :ccc

Oh, yeah, almost forgot – DH rulez )

Dear Arena Net,

<emotiaonalPart>
I REALLY like game your team created – it’s enormous. The ideas your programmers made true are fantastic. But your game designers.. or level designers – i don’t really get whom should make pve locations – failed.
That’s what i’ve seen from BWE
</emotionalPart>

Events:
Boring. Especially the one with sniper rifles
Make the one, who created Silverwastes lead level designer, please – he knows what to do with pve map!

Map itself
It was interesting, but it’s not really guessable (when you visit map first time and don’t have gliders or else), that the bridge (bottom of the map) could be not destroyed (it was, when i came), so i was forced to make pretty big and boring circle, to get to boring rifle events

Mobs:
They, actually, were fun! Especially these little raptors

Don’t get me wrong, but there were 3 years since start of GW2, and i was really looking forward for this addon, but if the whole addon is that boring, or only 1 zone is interesting, like silverwastes, then… i don’t know… i love the idea too much :c

Whom i’m trying to fool?! i will spend money, and buy the most expensive packs, and then i won’t play for years, waiting for next addon, believing in"Now, when 5-6 years passed, they DO know how pve should look like! they will make it!"

So, please, Arena Net, don’t let me spend money on air! Make Pve zones really interesting! i like wvw, pvp, but MOST i like pve, and i want to see really interesting PvE zones

Regards!

and what difference between ranked\unranked then ?!?!?!?
there are 3 types of games – custom \ unranked \ ranked – what’s the difference?!

Morwath.9817:

Ranks are meaningless.

and why there are ranks, then O_o ?

but still!
what about fairplay?!

openned world of structered pvp for myself – pretty fun, i must say! and i’m looking forward to gain rank!

Buuuuut… i’ve seen custom games that say “rank farm” – is that even legal?!?!

i think that’s great system now, and it is training high lvl players to be more skilled, then low lvl, giving them opportunity to train, not to degrade

because low levels aren’t guilty for being low levels )
why should you make their gameplay worse, just killing everything that moves around? You should be at their level of dufficulty, or even higher!
Because you’re high level there, not them )

So yeah, if a level 80 warrior in ascended is getting wrecked by a level 11 mob, that’s a l2p issue. A new patch, especially one this big, means people have to adjust.

If im not mistaken, he said about elite mob. And yes, warriors could be killed by gold elite easily before prepatch, i dont even want to check how is it now. But anyway.
Bro, this DS breaks builds. This DS breaks your gear. Why the hell i spent hundreds of gold for ascended items? To see them DS to green items? I could just by 3silver green crap from TP and go to low lvl locations in it. If you do downscale – dont make it break builds working on lvl 80 that i already used alot. If i made ascended – i want ascended. Make it scaling to ascended stats. Rare stats. Exo stats. Not god kitten green crap.

But low levels don’t have builds )
I think most low lvl locations hasn’t been calculated, to handle “80lvl builds”, thats why they shouldn’t be useful there )

I agree with ones, that say “it became hard and i agree with it”

I think game should be more challenging as you play it – if you became 80 lvl – you should not have problems with killing 1-15 elite. Yes, it is ANY HARD now, but srsly, you have became 80 lvl, don’t you want to have more challeging content everywhere now? I do.

Thus i think Anet actually went to the right way – making that game interesting at any moment – either you are 10 lvl on 1-15 loc, either 80 lvl on 1-15 loc

If game has had that downscaling when it had released – i would have not abandon it… because now it IS interesting, to visit low lvl locs

Honestly you should have waited before buying an extra slot. Well, enjoy your free alts!

who would’ve guest? )

as i’ve wrote in my question – i’ve already tried it, but they don’t want to give me gems back :c

but it seems Anet have some dignitiy about those things )

I’ve been playing since the first beta test, and when i’ve heard about “HoT” and reverant – first thing i’ve made – bought new character slot.
Now i’ve bought “Ultimate edition” and i don’t need slot i’ve bough – what should i do with it? your support said they won’t even give me gems back, so i could’ve buy something else :c

i wonder

I was witness of Arena net permanently banning people for abusing, because that meant other people would not have such fun, playing the game (that was about 2.5 year ago, when 2tier karma weapons were selling for 32 karma point, not 32k)

But isn’t world boss farming – abusing the game? Why people, who doesn’t give other players to have fun, aren’t banned?

Not everyone are old players here, and they want to see every aspect of the game.

So i ask – why?

they are already abandoned, but “sometimes” (check any boss timer) giant wave of randoms spown near aaaaaaaand RUIN ALL FUN! whistle

my own, personal opinion – i don’t see any meaning of this, except of players retention, if that is why i can’t have fun with my friends – i’m not impressed, Anet, even a liitle

This game is AWESOME, but sometimes it fills like that spirit, with which it was released – gone

as i’ve already said at the head of the topic – i don’t want to “press 1”, i want to join EPIC! things with my friends!

Arena net always were saying (before the release), that they want to make game, where everyone will have fun!

i don’t see any fun in farming, or being a part of farm -_-
really
not even a little
