So they suppose that we should to replay their rubbish missions thousands of times as we’re disallowed to do ahievements from first run!!!? Just destroyed all rewards from Caithe’s Reconnaissance Squad as protest against this, because they not allowed me to do ahievements at the same time! Even ahievement icons was inactive, i’ve tried to exit it several times to get them… After completed it and back to that location and i don’t see entry point to replay it. Further episodes still undone as i wish to finish everything with Caithe’s Reconnaissance Squad first! I probably will delete this game for such s*it…
Could be at least some key, to skip speech scenes… Like on Diablo3 was some key, esc or space (now don’t remember good), was possible to cancel every speech of NPC in missions, to speed up it. As we’re getting helpless feeling when we’re unable to progress with our speed.
Of course some players very like storyline, some are non-english or with poor english and even if they will listen everything, they won’t understand anything or part of it… So to push with force to listen every dialogue i don’t see any point…
There is some issue with doing ahievements in challenge mode on this mission as every replay we need to wait a lot of time until all introdution dialogues and cutscene will finish. This is around 5 minutes or maybe more, when you can smoke or to sleep until it will end… And those ahievements are hard at least for me as i am not nolifer for who as i see they’re designed + lags.
I mean not all players complete them from 1st or 2nd time, not all are so pro, for some this is just first steps in season 2 and they’re not skilled to do silverwastes and to fight sneaky tenacles… I probably will need 100 or 1000 runs until i will learn to dodge enough accurate to complete them and every replay time i need to wait and listen all this introdution and this is very huge time waste! I already failed it over 5 times…
I suggest if player choosen challenge mode, it anyway means that he needs just to kill a dragon and give to him it, skip all dialogues, scenes, at least all blah blah blah talk until first monsters will spawn. As anyway this part of mission it’s not a part of challenge…
Why to waste our time and servers traffic for this… I am up to grind to repeat it hundreds or thousands of times until i will learn to deal with them but i don’t want to waste any second on boring dialogues, please!!!
Lol, just tested it on battle.net and this time it worked. So removed their SMS protect from my battle.net account. I don’t trust such security option as i had big troubles with it, as such thing as sending scanned passports to someone, even to blizzard is even unconsiderable…
And you offer it as some mandatory as we even have no option to disable this offer. Not in all cases from far away from America countries it working well and now you force every user to choose it as elsewhere you will annoy them to the death with that offer all the time…
And why i am unable to edit my previous post? As i normally first writing posts, later fixing grammar mistakes, but i don’t see options how to edit it…
It allows me just to select remind me later and i wish to get rid from my eyes this offer regarding very bad and poor experiences with such rubbish SMS security from other games!
First of all SMS was never designed for serious information sending! Saying it as technical person. SMS messages could deliver day or weeks later and etc… This all protocol is only for entertainment and not important data sending.
Once i already used SMS authorization on another game, on battle.net account. In begin it worked some time, but later up to today I have big troubles with it as their SMS today never delivers while i activating to send it. So i afraid that the same could happen here and i even won’t consider such security option as i already experiences troubles with it. Much better an e-mail authorization!
Eg. today blizzard support asks me to send eg. private, very important personal data, like scanned my passport to remove that phone number which i still using as via not related to me technical issues i am unable to receive SMS… I don’t know why it not working, maybe my mobile provider, maybe issues with international mobile providers, but i don’t suggest to anyone to risk. Except you’re from the same country as Arena.net…
Yep i understand your point, but as i am software developer i won’t understand how they’re unable to fix this. To remove completion from WvW and to add it in some more challenging PvE content, where more challenge is needed and don’t need to get so annoyed and disappointed from game…. Simply i don’t like such design from development point. It’s not right as it annoys their customers, makes huge disadvantages for them what is against game development concept at all.
Why we must to waste our time, to wait while some point will be captured? Do arena.net doesn’t know that time is money? Every good gamer knows it. They don’t like to spend time on it and a lot of players must to suffer from this… Arena.net thinks that key to fortune and their games success are challenges, but really i not once abandoned to play GW for this reason, as their challenges sometimes are to big and annoying, not all players like this.
P.S. I up to do something else for month or more time or to grind hardly, rather than to do those few sPvP maps. Or they could give same maps as PvE instances with a lot of strong monsters, dragons, champions and etc…
And Arena.net should do this! I am PvE only player and i have serious reason for it. I have issues with anger management and unable to do PvP as i can damage PC or some other thing even people around at home when i fail against other players…. That’s why i never do PvP in all games and I don’t play games where i’am unable to avoid PvP. How about people like we rights?
I agree with any solution to remove WvW from completion list or to remove completion from PvE or to give some completelly peaceful visiting hour per day to complete WvW or non-attack buff, where you go, keep status quo from everything and nobody can attack you and you don’t capture anything, you just do completion & etc..
I hate pvp and never liked it and never will like it, i simply unable to play it and DON’T FORCE ME TO DO IT! I just did around month of time completion and today found that i need to go like cannon fodder in enemy area. I don’t feel in this way any pleasure from game and i am very disappointed that i bought this game for this… I had hope that you won’t force to do PvP like in Guildwars1 which i like. But you to much like challenges absolutely not how I do…
You call this entertainment, but i don’t think it is entertainment, when you so much annoy your customers… I very disappointed about this game
Already updated, but it taked around 15 minutes to update launcher… After update i closed launcher, not logged in. As i don’t use admin if i don’t need it and started launcher again without admin rights and it again updates launcher…
Before any login textboxes displayed, just after start of launcher. When it try to update it does very small download, few (1-7KB) kilobytes and download speed fast decreasing to 0 and it waiting forever for next few kilobytes. After some minutes (Eg. 5 or more) it downloads again few kilobytes and again it waiting). In this way it will start that launcher in few days.
Already killed application over 5 times. I’ve tried it in admin and in normal windows user mode. In admin it does download a bit more kilobytes at start, but after this it stops and waiting with 0 download speed. I suspect update server overcrowded or no free seeds if GW2 use torrent technology. That’s annoying as i have very limited time for daily gaming.
P.S. Europe, ultra fast 100mbps optical fiber internet connection. In my side no any issues. I even shutting down Skype while i play games.
Getting same issue now. I had it already linked, but not played GW2 yet (got no any HoM rewards). Changed some login info on GW1 account and GW2 forgot that link. Now trying to link again and getting such XML response and no any effect… Was some gw1 account issues, but now it’s working, can login to both games, but while try to link, getting that XML.
was serious angry on anet…
