Guild Wars 2

People need to learn that staying clumped together is a recipe for desaster. And this game is even frendly with that… big circles on the ground some of the stuff is really slow, if you keep standing in a aoe area it’s your fault period. It’s limited to 5 people……..

Holy kitten, way to make your post meaningless with the first point. SWTOR had some serious clunkiness issues, abilities never fired when expected they had bad delays even on instants and so on, the Forum was ablaze because of this and many PVP guys just gave up. I actually think GW2 has a pretty fluid combat system, that could improve but is pretty solid as is. The reliance on RNG is a bit to much and should be toned down or at least make builds that don’t rely on RNG aspects better.

I,.

So we kill any sense of progression in PVE? If you get stronger through some mechanic (gear, skills etc.) which is a core part of an MMORPG, the content becomes laughable easy because it’s designed for fresh characters all the way through. You could gimp the Player character so he always feels like a start character, which would kill the game.

To compare it to Single player RPG’s that can scale the enemies with the Player is just stupid, that is not a possibility a MMO has, unless you instance everything for one players and then it stops to be an MMO.

I have no problem with leveling the first char to max, if level progression is decent, but they need to make it quicker for alts, because running through the same content just to get to the end game is not fun.

Why play a MMORPG if you want a MMO FPS? or do you want something like the mess that the Elder Scrolls series calls a combat system. Also the whole game is not build for this. Have fun with wonky hit detection and terrible hitboxes.

@daweed, That stuff isn’t that much fun for a big Charr, Jumping puzzles are annoying.

I’m only level 23 with the engi, but bombs serve me well. I traited Firearms to get the 20% cooldown reduction and will probably go 10 into kits, to get speedy kits. Feel like having constant swiftness is more beneficial then a bit more bomb damage. Like the rifle at the moment because of the control it gives you especially if you try to set up combos in a Fire Bomb or smoke bomb field.

Horrible to hear, thought about putting leveling for WvWvW aside and building a sPVP char, but that issue would make it pretty futile……… Even worse to hear that the Dev’s don’t seem to think that something like this is a high prio fix……….. But yeah fix can’t be advertised as Custom Arenas would

Because Steam Punk, atheist and Engi just makes for a great combo, and to be honest they’re the least annoying of all the races. I was quite interested in the Asura, but apparently the writers thought it would be a great idea to make everyone including your character extremely annoying with bad bad voices . Will probably try the Sylvary for an alt, but neither Norn or Human seems to be interesting.
