Guild Wars 2

In WvW,

Engineers are probably the most underused class and for all Engineer players the traits need to be buffed for WvW to be competitive with other classes.

Arena Net only cares about every other class except for the Engineer.

Arena Net’s GW2 Game Designer needs to re-work the traits so that Engineers can hold their own with other classes, right now that’s not the case. Everyone in WvW uses Elementalist, Mesmer, Necro, Guardian, Warrior, Thief and those classes are strong in WvW PvP but the Engineer really is not strong enough to survive against them or kill them fast enough.

Whoever designed the Engineer traits really under powered the engineer overall and it could be designed better.

Also not possible to select if you are not in a group / try to do it solo. Bug is for both grouped and solo players. This is a GAME BREAKING bug because HoT expansion players in the future wont be able to proceed past this portion of the Personal Story.

The cannons on the Air Ship in Victory or Death – The Ruined City of Arah Story Mode has cannons that you cannot control and it is not possible to continue the personal story. See screenshot.

Confirmed that the cannons on the Air Ship in Victory or Death – The Ruined City of Arah Story Mode has cannons that you cannot control and it is not possible to continue the personal story. See screenshot.

If it were up to me, I would call on 3 of the best software engineers from the world’s best universities to rotate three 8 hour shifts so that at the beginning and end if each shift over a period of 8 hours the outgoing software engineer would tell the incoming software engineer of the progress on the fix and the 3 of them could hold weekly meetings to plan ahead maybe once or twice a week.

That 3 person 8 hour shift rotation is way better than having just one person working over the course of an average 8-10 hour day testing and debugging a fix.

Could have gone faster if you maybe hired someone on a temporary basis to assist so long as they had the qualifications to do the job.

That’s just my opinion.

I am not buying the Heart of Thorns expansion until this is fixed. Only when ArenaNet releases the fix live into the game and all of the Hall of Monuments content is back and working fully will they get their $50 on the expansion from me. I am not purchasing anything on gem store either until this is fixed. ArenaNet won’t get a single cent from me until HOM fix goes live and I think other customers feel the same way.

Ewer.1850:

It always amazes me how quickly people come to the defense of Anet on this topic. If they said “Sorry there is a bug and you have to wait 4+ months for your HOT preorder items / gems/ character slots” everyone would lose their minds. Bottom line is there is content people should have access to and paid for (if you count time / paying for gw1 to earn HOM rewards as paying for it) and 4+ months for a fix simply too long for things to remain broken.

I agree, that’s like Apple saying the iPhone6 has a major bug but instead of fixing it they release the iPhone7 while leaving the iPhone6 broken. Never in the past 20 years have I seen a company dedicate their resources to product development than bug fixing. You don’t see other game companies do this, only ArenaNet.

If this is the way they do business I am not buying the expansion. To release content and leave it broken and move on to new projects as the new normal way of doing things is inexcusable.

ArenaNet, if you want my $50 on Heart of Thorns, you won’t get it until Hall of Monuments is fixed. I don’t care if ArenaNet has to collaborate or outsource with Senior Software engineers from the world’s best companies or universities, I would rather they look for help than to leave this broken.

I can confirm that is is happening to engineers as well, I tried removing all skills from my bars and I still get the same bug / glitch where the karka gun disappears. This happens when you are doing the underwater cavern near the Ecto collector then try to resurface into the secret cavern. As you leave the water your Karka gun goes away which makes this Achievement impossible to complete as an engineer.

ArenaNet needs to fix this ASAP.
