Guild Wars 2

While the art is nice, it only takes seconds to see all there is to see to a loading screen. And this game has many!

Here are a few ways to make Loading screens a bit more… interesting.
1. Give in text the lore and back story of each area you are visiting.
2. Leave the chat open when loading.
3. Give a random tip to the player in each loading screen.

Please stop with the temporary content!

You might be thinking “We are keeping old players in the game.” but that way you are also “locking new players out” and “sending quitted players away”.

A player who left sometime near launch and is thinking of rejoining, will dreadfully realize that “not much content have been? added (besides pvp stuff), despite the gigantic patches”

A new player who is thinking of joining, will be told “There was a lot of story behind this the latest content, but you have to read about it on a wiki to catch up”.

In this forum we are all GW2 players, so it’s hard to get to that mindset…
…but the idea of Temporary content can actually be an obstacle for people in the process of deciding whether they should join/rejoin the game.

Also, its a big pain when for whatever reason you are in a situation that you can play for a long period of time. (exams, vacations away from home, job, being drafted for military service, being temporary occupied with a new other game).
I’m currently struggling to keep up with all the temporary stuff wille studding for my exams, getting ready for my 2 week travel in Germany and playing Dragons Dogma on my PS3, and if for whatever reason I have to stay away for some long period of time, getting back won’t be an easy choice for me, since I know there won’t be much new stuff to come back to…
