Guild Wars 2

New pic. Aparently the new changed also have a few clipping issues. When on a slanted plain, my sylvari’s leg is clearly clipping through the dress. I don’t recall seeing this issue before the change was made

I accidentally posted this in General Discussion…

Anet, good job making the TA light armor set more “flowey” by letting it flow in the wind. Only problem is you broke the armor. The glow is gone completely, the dress has been shortened quite a bit, and my Female Sylvari has been cut in half. Please revert this change as it was one step forwards, two steps back (three for me since you cut my character in two…)

1st pic shows her waistline. When viewed from behind female sylvari are now cut in half with TA light set.

2nd pic shows the new shortened length.

3rd pic shows the original length before changed.

edit: 4th pic added. Anet decided to cut my sylvaris legs off too aparently. only noticeable when jumping/falling.

TA armor no longer glows as of the most recent patch fyi. Also, Sylvari face 2 eye bug still strong as ever.

I have the same issue. I hope that it’s not intentional because the glow was one of the reasons I even grinded the tokens for the armor…

Here to report a possible bug, or to find out if this is in fact intended. Did a quick search on it but found nothing.

When at the dungeon token armor vendors at Lions Arch, every armor vendors armor preview shows the same armor set, the cabalist set, when you preview the rare (not exotic) armors. They all have the same icons as well but the name for the armors is still the same as their exotic counter parts (nightmare cowel in the rare section is still named nightmare cowel in the exotic section).

Is this a bug? It’s kind of hard for me to believe that every single rare version of these armors all share the cabalist model…

“If you like MMOs you should check out Guild Wars 2, and if you hate MMOs you REALLY should check out Guild Wars 2!”
Anybody remember that?

I find most MMOs incredibly boring after a week.
They just feel so much like work. They do give this lazy zen feeling but it gets old fast.

Maybe I like Guild Wars 2 precisely for the reason you don’t.
I enjoy that I’m not told to do something and instead I can just play it much like any non-MMO.
I just enjoy lazily wandering around in PvE and sometimes doing a whole lot of WvW.
Chatting with people and doing whatever I feel like doing.

GW2 does have many systems that need tweaks/fixes but I trust they’ll be sorted out eventually.

Exactly.

Earlier today, I was wandering around the 25-35 Norn area. I found my way up on to a vista on this huge friggin mountain. While I was looking around admiring how my sylvari looked perched up there all proudly, I spotted this human fighting like 5 mobs near the base of the mountain, and he was quickly being over run. Being a mesmer, I jolted down to him and blinked to him right as he was downed and made all these illusions while systematically taking out each mob one by one. Didn’t take any damage, and saved him. He gave me his thanks, and we then both decided to explore this cave since it had a point of interest. It took us a bit but we got to the end and there was this MASSIVE Ice Wurm champion that we somehow didn’t see till it was too late. We died, but it was absolutly epic.

Adventuring just to adventure. It makes things so much more enjoyable imo.

OOHH Okay, i get it.
If it’s fun for you, it has to be fun for other people too right?
Because lets face it because you’re the leading authority on the subject matter of fun.

The value of fun is determined by you.
Clearly theres something wrong with the people whose expectations of fun differs from yours, clearly.

Munchkin is more fun at the moment than PVE GW2

I don’t know, is it? Are there people playing the game right now who are not trolling the forums? I’ll answer that for you. Yes.

You are right though. The value of fun is, in fact, determend by the individual which brings us back to our point on accomplishment. Accomplishing something that holds any form of merrit like a life long goal, such as getting married or being promoted at work, is fun and exciting and meaningful. Accomplishing something in a virtual world which in the end holds zero meaning besides giving a false sense of accomplishment (being that you didn’t in fact accomplish anything at all) a little less so. But, if you think otherwise, I hear World of Warcraft is like crack for people like you

K, let’s just have no sense of accomplishment, ever again, and slap a fun sticker on it! are you sure you are not a game scientist? you sure know the meaning of fun.

I must. I’ve been having fun playing the game. I also think board games are fun, as is riding a bike, taking my girlfriend on dates, watching football with friends, and many things that I don’t get +5 extra strength for.

I play because for me it is fun to go exploring in a fantasy world what with all the random adventures that I get into. The game not having an “!” over npc heads at quest hubs makes it a little more immersive for me, and not having to worry about gear gives me a sense of adventuring just for the sake of it.

But I suppose the world has a place for people who strive to make accomplishments fun. Most my friends who have fun by accomplishing things do so at work, and the more money they make the more fun they have. Perhaps you should try that? Better than “accomplishing” something in a virtual world which equates to jack kitten.

Ironangel.1548:

wouldn’t you rather pay a sub for a game that was fun at max lvl? rather than no sub, grind gold that has no meaning, etc etc? all my friends already shelved it in 3 weeks.

No. If I wanted to pay a monthly fee for a sense of accomplishment, then I’d go back to doing coke.

For games, once you stop chasing the carrot on a stick and start playing just to play they suddenly become more fun than they previously could.

I, too, suffer from this issue. I was so engrossed in the game though that I didn’t notice it till I hit around lvl 25. I was then looking at new armor that I just got and noticed it. I’m the type that re-rolls over simple appearance issues over and over again (my friend gets real mad at me for this reason), so I’m hoping that this gets looked at soon cause I really don’t want to play from scratch again since these days I don’t have much time in one session to game, maybe like an hour or three a day. At the same time, though, I really love that particular face and how it looks in the creator with small pupils…

To me it looks like one eye is fine, and the other ones shading/lighting is reversed

Yea, I made a Sylvari with that face and changed the iris size, and I didn’t notice this until about 3 or 4 days ago but I just hit 27 and don’t really want to re-roll to change my appearance (again). Logged on just now, and no it’s not fixed yet. Here’s to hoping it gets fixed or they add an option to change appearance or something…
