Nah man, I didn’t say I’m not at the LEVEL cap. People in this thread are complaining about karma caps, anti-farm code loot caps, not the level cap.
I’ve been 80 for a few days. I run dungeons when my friends feel like it, as I did while leveling. I go for zone completions when I feel like it, as I did while leveling. I craft when I feel like it, do DE’s when I feel like it, go gathering when I feel like it, WvW, structured… etc.
What I’m saying is, continuing to play the game as I played it 1-80, I haven’t run into any of this stuff, and I’m wondering what other people are doing that they’re running into these karma caps and anti farm code. I get the feeling that some people are trying to force a square peg into a round hole here.[/quote]
I apologize I misinterpreted your post. Well in terms of the karma code and anti farm code I have no beef with that, although the anti farm code could be tweaked. What I do have a problem with is the dungeon run nerfs, people should get a good feeling after they are successful at running a dungeon and not fearful at what the repair costs would be like cause what they get from it is no where near the repair costs.
I think Arenanet wants you to stop constantly playing GW2 and do something else for a while.
If you level up to 80 Quickly and ruin the game for yourself, thats on you, Can hardly be blamed on Arenanet. It has only been a month.
So basically we get punished for success? Seriously, is this the world we live in? Where mediocrity is rewarded and you are told you ruined the game cause you reached cap? Why can’t you see that we are merely trying to be constructive and point out the problems. Everyone is bound to reach the cap, even people like you who “play the game the way it’s supposed to be played”.
I agree 100% with the original post. I am a casual gamer but even I find a total lack of things to do since they capped everything. I feel so frustrated cause this game has been so good.. up until I reached level 80 and realized… what’s left? I sincerely hope they find a way around this dilemma with the bots that doesn’t hinder our personal enjoyment.
I don’t understand. How are you a casual gamer AND hitting the caps? Honest question, not trying to attack you or anything, I just can’t comprehend it. I play the game pretty much as a job, bare minimum 4 hours a day, and I’ve yet to hit caps.
Now granted, I pretty much just do whatever is appealing to me at the moment, because I find the notion of repeatedly burning my way through 1 piece of content ad nauseam to be antithetical to my idea of fun, but did they seriously set the caps so low that a casual gamer can run out of things to do in their limited playtime?
Well ive hit 80 because it’s easy to hit 80 which is fine by me. I don’t know what you are doing and why you haven’t reached cap yet and frankly that is none of my business. But to say that I am not a casual gamer (or hint it) because I have hit the cap after the game has been out for almost a month, is for a lack of a better word- naive.
Now on to your question. With regards to having stuff you can do when you are capped, sure you can do stuff, but the rewards for doing those are just not appealing. Let’s say I want to have fun, so i run a dungeon with my friend. After completing the dungeon I spend 5 silver on repairs and make 2-3 silver from the dungeon run. I am actually at a loss from running a dungeon instead of getting rewarded. Try doing dungeon runs now and get back to me.
