Hello Tyrians,
I am Humbrauck, a french player from Jade Sea, I should probably write all this in french on the french official forum, but I think I must do it here before.
Today, I want to speak with you about the update of commander tag. All I will write under is what ArenaNet feed me by feeding other peoples at GamesCom and on Reddit.
The price for a tag will be 300 gold, this is not a bad idea for me, who give more importance to this capacity, that’s what we hope for developpers, they well-balanced the game, our game.
Then we should get more colors on our tags. What a great idea to! We must use this to live best organized WvW matches! But, here is my first problem, why should I pay more just for one color ? People are not all going to buy two, three four… colors. So organization will be the same, just more colorfull.
And last point, I want to speak about refunding. I know ArenaNet will give refunding to player who buy 4 or more tags. You must refund players when you change price like that, we are all agree. But not lik this…
So what am I thinking to make it best ? Just two points, keeping philosophy of course.
• Put price for an other color lower (some will says, all colors for 300g no more money required, some other will say it must be a honor badges price -I am not here to judge of this, but you must do something.)
• Refund players of 100 gold for each tag they got. Or let those who just have one, two or three wuth their tag soul bound. I know the support is going to be charged of refunding, it mean you can change the rule if you want.
Why am I hoping you will do something and change the decision you take ? Because ArenaNet Staff is near of community. I am on European servers, I never see one of them in WvW, PvE, PvP… But since I read the MMO Manifest, since I look all they give for us (updates, events, social network investissement, etc) I know they can change a position (whatever, people are going to try after, thinking you will always change of statement) because they can see that’s some points of MMO Manifest are not matching with this changes.
Colin Johanson, you were saying “we will never put grinding, not vertical objectives”. I saw it when ascended is account bound, but not here. I don’t want to be obliged to swung thousand of sword just for my tag.
So, to conclude, if you are plaers, you can agrreed my message using the function “+1” on this post and share reactions below.
And if you are those guys in Guild Wars 2 Team (with a big T) going to defend us, and show us an action of collaborative development !
For Tyria ! For our Community Spirit !
Have a nice game and a nice day,
