Guild Wars 2

I agree there is alot of negative things round forums.
But onto the topic, i really have to give devs praise for water based combat. Unique in my opinion and i’d love to see it added more into sPvP or maybe even WvW.

Its interesting those bears are mentioned, with way some are labeled as somthing like “Visitor” and way they just look, i really wouldent be suprised if they were added in future.
I could be wrong but to me way they look just screams “future race!” xD

I really dont understand all hype about this map, for me its one of my favourite i love the water based combat, if anything i’d love to see alot more water based combat in future.
I agree the sharks hit abit hard especially when grouped but way i see it, its a team based game. :S I personally havent had any problem dealing with the sharks though.

I really enjoy sPvP, especially the capricorn map.
So my suggestion is i’d love to see alot more done with water combat in sPvP.
Also be nice to see simular things for the water like with the land, for example. Capricorn map has the cannon, Map with clocktower has treb etc.
I’d love to see under water types of seige weapons and more underwater based combat.

I kind of agree, it is one of most enjoyable MMOs i’ve played this year.
Although i think few people talk abit bad cause there expecting alot from the game even though its only been out short while.
I for one am fairly happy with what game offers so far and i’m sure new things will come in future, so yeah very enjoyable so far. :]

As some have also mentioned i’d also like to share my issues with this. :P
I’ve also had this problem during the story dialog cutting out on NPC’s on my female character, even like Xehlwan mentioned it also cuts out during talks with the scouts.
Does kinda spoil the story experience. :<

EDIT:- Just to point out where i had this problem, it was during the tutorial area for the Asura and again at the first scout you speak to during first part of game.

Hey all just wondering if anyone else had this issue. Trying to log in today i got another authorize log in attempt message, it was by me of course.
Though i saved the location last time and this time its telling me i’m from a completly different place before some place called “slough” and i’m not even from there, anyone else had the location go and change like that? :/ my ip might have changed but region is still same. Anyone else have simular problems at all? :s

Personally i think downed state is a rather nice mechanic. It adds alot of support into team play encouraging people to support thier team.
Without it i think it would just develope a sour community people would just change
and start asking why no ones healer, which bring me again to why i like it.
It’s a nice way of letting people play how they want while still being able to support the team.

Just to add my opinion on all this i think the burst damage at moment is alright.
I also think whole idea of giving higher score to the winning team is also not good of an idea, way everything works right now is alright.
As for the idea of a “queue and penalty for leaving” i also don’t think this is a great idea. Devs idea to drop in and out of a pvp room as i please especially if i have to leave for reasons is good to me.

Finally on all this i didnt want to bring up “world of warcraft” but alot of ideas seem to make me think of way that games PvP operates, i cant say ideas even then were great and queue times were usally also pretty long and leaving if i had to the penalty was just annoying.
Also if i remmeber right when a team used to start losing the whole team pretty much vanished which makes me think again a penalty system doesnt work that well.
Sorry if post might seem abit ranty but just expressing my opinion, i think devs so far have done a great job with how pvp works as a whole.

I agree that warriors have amazing burst with thier adrenaline based mechanic, but when playing on my few other chars i dont problems dealing with them in sPvP.

I used to struggle with these nukes and first and just whine in my head lol.
If you keep focused on them those adrenaline based nukes are easily evaded with right timing. Although i cant say you’d ever be 100% perfect at doing it, but they are easily evaded if you know what to expect from weapon set there using.

I’ve personally been using a greatsword and sword/pistol on my mesmer with impressive results, can always seems to top score charts in sPvP.

Although i’m not one to give away builds. :p i will say that the it works well with a power/crit based build and making regular use of “Mirror Blade” and “Phantasmal berseker” can make this weapon really shine with right Trait/rune/sigil/accessory setup.

Using phantasmal/clones on alt wep set as well can increase the builds effectiveness.
I’d recommend experimenting round with traits abit and runes as well as accessory to try boost up critical damage as well as traits to buff up phantasms etc.

Longbow and Shortbow are both good weapons, main thing is depending how your gonna build up your traits etc.

I found that the shortbow is mobile and works well with a conditional based build, like mrbagamen mentioned it has a smaller range.

Longbow on otherhand has a longer range and gives pretty impressive results when run with a burst type build, although your stuck stationary with few of its skills.
On final note i’ve also heard of ranger builds using both long/short bow, So just stick with what you prefer, there isnt really a wrong choice. :]

I dont really think its much a mess to be honest, i think the mode was made pretty well. The objective is simple and i just try to have fun. Somtimes it can be mindless zerg but most players will listen if you have somthing to say long as your nice, like directing them to blue/red lord somtimes. :p

Heh, i actually like the deleveling system. Played alot of mmos where usally high levels would pull like 10-20 mobs or so when thier farming or so on, it can get pretty annoying when your trying to level or quest and this is happening all day. xD

Like few people also mentioned its also fun cause i think it gives higher levels a chance to go back into the lower areas and explore the quests in that area.

Just to put my opinion on this, i dont think warriors are really broken at all or OP for that matter. xD I’ve experimented with alot of different weapons on my warrior, found most weapons viable depending on build.
If anything i’d encourage all those greatsword weilding warriors in pvp to try out few other weapons, you might be suprised. :p

Few days back created a sylvari ranger with the fern hound as a starting pet. Only weird part though is that once in game i desided to check personal story summary etc in the menu, noticed that the info regarding my starting pet as well as 5th little picture icon next to others was also missing, also the “this is my story part”.

This bug just really well bugs me. I’ve already submitted a bug report regarding this and i’d like to know if anyone else experienced this?
weather they’ve experienced it and it just sorts fixed itself?
Not sure if it’ll have any impact regarding story quests but i’d like to hear some more opions regarding this bug is possible. :x
