Guild Wars 2

This is a very frustrating bug and in my opinion, un-exceptable. This bug has made my client crash when I’m in big world event boss fights like Claw of Jormag and Shatterer. It has happened 10 times to me just today. Right before the death of the boss the sound bug kicks in and the client crashes. When get logged back in the event is over, the chest is not there and I get no reward or karma.

This needs to be fixes ASAP! This was not affecting me up until a day or 2 ago with the latest patch. This is still a problem and something else needs to be done to fix it. It is preventing character progress. Multiple other people in the area during these events are complaining the same thing so it’s not just me!

Or at the very least, free to travel to Lions Arch where we can use the portals to the other cities.

Agreed, the chat system in this game is very, very basic. ArenaNet claimed they wanted this game to be very social friendly, yet the basic things like chatting and friends/guild list notifications are so basic or lacking I find it hard to believe when they say things like that. I feel they are saying those things just to look good, but they haven’t delivered on some very basic social aspects of the game. (and don’t even get me started with the guild system, joining a guild is pointless. This game is way to solo-able to need a guild in the first place.)

Agreed. There are too many money sinks. Travel to main cities is a fair idea that should be implemented.

I agree we should be able to move our skills the buttons we desire. Or at least have character specific key bindings.

These are changes I feel that are needed to make for a more “polished” game experience. These are my own suggestions that I’ve noticed to become standard features in MMO’s like this game that people have come to be accustomed too and should be in all games. Some of these are just critiques of already somewhat implemented features.

I have broken the list down into two sections, the top section is features that I feel need to be implemented now or in the near future (within the next month). The second section is features that could take more time and are not hindering the game play experience but would greatly enhance the experience long term.

Major Needed Additions/Changes (needed now):—-

-Friends list and guild member log-on/off chime (and chat log notice). – I never notice when friends log on and off, I shouldn’t have to check my friends list every
minute to see if someone has logged on or left.

-Whisper chime needs to be louder or have more volume control.

-AFK auto reply back from players when whispering them.

-Center Screen pop up for Party Invites. – They are not noticeable enough.

-Names of the Asura Gates on Maps and when moused over in-game from a distance.

-Allow spells to be moved within the spell bar OR allow key bindings to be character specific. – You are never going to get us to cast our spells in a “designed order”, we are going to cast our spells how ever our play style fits us best. For instance, on my guardian with the greatsword, I start off every encounter with “leap of faith”, so that should be number 1 key for me, not number 3!

-Mobile Phone Authenticator App.

-Inspect players.

-Reduce the amount charged for traveling to a near by waypoints after dieing to zero. We should not have to pay money to resurrect upon death.

-Reduce all travel costs by 1/3. At least for the next 6 months. People just started playing and we have no money. It is making it extremely difficult to travel, buy our trait books and craft.

Minor Additions/Changes (future consideration/projects):—-

-Customized Chat Window Channel Colors.

-Flashing chat tabs when chat log updates/adds new chat.

-More player to player interactive slash commands and when targeting a player, command is personalized to that target.
/nod
/clap
/cheer … etc.

-Information Entry/Index for Points-of-Interest, Vistas and other key areas. – I discover a POI but feel nothing for it. Some information in form of an interface log entry would be amazing and make the game more in depth.

-Make the Menu, scroll bar and tabs on the chat frame disappear like they do on the mini map. The hide all button is not very useful as you can’t interact with the chat frame when you scroll over it when hide is active.

-In the achievement’s window, make a list or “recent achievement’s” tab/category at the top somewhere. – I often get an achievement and don’t know what it was for, the notice disappears and I never will truly know what I just accomplished. For instance, this will often happen when I’m in a boss fight.

Thanks for you consideration of my suggestions. I hope to see some of these in game soon to help make for a more polished game experience.

Oh awesome, thanks Noviere! I’ve been looking for the name of this gear set so I could research it more, but now I know it’s crafted. I’m almost there! Thanks again.

Alright, I should have started this post like this but I didn’t feel like signing up on a photo site, but now I have so I will start over.

I am looking for the armor from this screen shot that I took of a level 35 warrior:

Anyone know what this armor exactly is?? thanks.

I do agree that travel costs are a bit on the high side, especially when the hearts and others don’t reward much for currency. Since ArenaNets philosophy was to be “no waiting to have fun” then the cost of travel shouldn’t be so high to make you go broke. I just hit level 40 and I didn’t even have 1 gold to buy my trait book. I had to sell some materials I was storing for crafting to get enough and now I’m broke again. This would be a contributing factor to people resorting to gold farmers and gold selling websites which have flooded the chat logs with spam adds now.

I do agree with others on this thread that endgame gear should not be just handed to us, we need something to work on once we’ve hit the cap. So endgame gear, stats or cosmetics, should be costly.

I agree, and vote for multiple/floating chat windows…let us decide how we want to view communication with other people.
