Do I have to Delete my account?

I also miss the PvE auto-loot which is very very convenient. Sadly it´s locked behind content I don´t/won´t do.

Hopefully it will change one day.

You should be able to delete items without typing their name. Make it similar to WoW and let us type something like “DELETE”.

For example now I´m unable to delete the item, because required symbol isn´t supported by my keyboard layout. I´m not going to make science about it, checking US script and figuring out how to type that kitten ed symbol so I can actually delete that item.

I prefer monthly sub model used in WoW with cash shop containing cosmetic items and some services (realm switch etc.). But even WoW sub model went wrong with selling in-game currency with cash.

I do not mind cash shop in-game in general – I really like that they sell cosmetics in it (I own and happily use some) and the reason behind this is very simple – I´m yet to know any MMO which would allow me to get what you want in a way you want. I do not wish to raid. I do not wish to do dungeons. I might grind some zone for a limited time but not too long and only if I like it. I like to do WvW or if we look on MMOs in general, I like mostly randomized PvP (from WoW perspective random BGs and queueing into it solo). No developer so far seems to grasp the idea, that I want the same rewards for time spent in-game as other players get (and I generally spent more time playing than your average player) – rewards should not be locked behind types of content (nor primarily it´s difficulty, especially cosmetically wise) but they should require some time investment no matter the content you do (same rewards possible for instanced or open world PvE and PvP). Because no developer grasps that, I really like to have the option to buy decent looks (cosmetics) for my character in cash shop instead of my character looking like a crap because I do not wish to do certain kind of content.

What I do not like is the need to buy bag space etc. and this part of the cash store is what kept most of the MMO people I knew from trying GW 2 (what, we buy the game and we must still buy basic stuff like bag space?). This part is in my opinion worse than buying in-game currency, especially since in-game currency doesn´t mean that much in this game (it´s not EVE online where having or not having cash to spare makes a huge difference).

I have always argued against adding content through updates (another example of this is EVE online where they used expansion model, then they switched to “update often” model to lately switch into a clone of both, keeping updates going through the year but keeping the “next big thing” for the yearly expansion). I think business wise it´s much better to create expansions = create the hype around them, add more content at once and preferably that content should be more tested and polished. :-)

Looking at current GW 2 business model it´s hard to offer any real change which would not hurt current player base. I just wish there would be good sub based only MMO coming to the market anytime soon which would allow me to get the rewards I want for playing the way I want to play. And last but not least – I want PvP with character collision detection, we can probably say a lot of bad things about abandoned Warhammer Online, but the collision detection there was awesome, I kind of miss it…

@devs please make more underwater content.

Please no… Or at least do so outside of personal story, so we could skip such content without too much of a hassle. I would be okay with such a compromise.

BTW I say no to any global change to open zone difficulty (world zones), for the sake of everything in this cosmos and beyond, not another easy zone smash through boring dumb game like WoW… I left if for a reason.

Do not mean to be mean. ;-)

But by reading your topic – several characters, character like family member. You are not casual, you are just not a skilled player. Not the same.

I´m not the most skilled player either (although with my game time spent in the game and having just one character I really play with I´m actually a casual), albeit I can do the basic PvE (story, world maps, did some dungeons in past) and sometimes somehow I even defeat someone in PvP.

Difficulty modes… I have mixed feelings about this. Maybe for a personal story…

[Suggestions] Gemstore Items

I would love to see more gem options for home instance. What I miss the most is my own bedroom (I would definitely log off in it every time I could). But cosmetic possibilities are almost endless.

2000 gems for a good looking bedroom for my character? Here you go!

u find gw2 story any good?

Semris.7520

Short version. I like the game story. And I love we finally got out of Destiny´s Edge shadow. Could be certainly better, but for me it accomplishes what it should – it gets me through the new zones.

Compared to some other MMOs (cough cough WoW cough cough) it´s even great!

Far Shiverpeaks (EU) - WvW rank 1?

Thanks for the responses, it´s interesting to read. :-)

So the pairing is the sole culprit? :-)

I thought maybe some WvW guilds moved in or something. Or that the other top servers had their WvW guilds leave or whatnot.

Maybe I´m just overthinking it. Curious by nature.

Just like that? From average server to the top?

Really, there should be more to it, else I wouldn´t ask. If there isn´t, well okay and grats us.

I come and go, play as I have time and mood. We used to be like rank 8-10th. I didn´t care that much and just played WvW for fun. Few days ago I checked the rankings and I noticed we are now ranked 1st.

Someone care enough to give me insight on how exactly did this happen?

What items are save to delete...

I really wish it wasn´t so unnecessarily cryptic. Okay, will check all items on wiki before deleting. :-)

For items in collections, right click them to ensure that you have been given credit. If so, you are safe to delete them.

Okay, so for example the back item you will get for achieving the collection will be mailed to you? I was “afraid” I would have to combine those items for example in mystic forge. Will delete them then!

Hello,

I already have two bank slots full of different trophies etc. Some are part of collections for items (like the Maguuma backslot item), some are only for collecting or so it says. I have tried to delete some useless items yesterday and it asked me if I really wanted to – I have checked those items (not trophies) and they were also part of some collection, so I didn´t delete them.

It´s all very confusing. I have tried searching for some web page with a list or something but without any success. Or does the game ask you if you are sure to delete the item when you try to delete ANY item you might need later on?

Thanks.

Is GW2 dying? Just a question, no hate

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Semris.7520

Semris.7520

Not sure about the dying part but for me it´s quite opposite. I have basically left the original game for several reasons and now I´m back… This expansion is epic and god I disliked the living word idea before (crappy small additions but often)…

Now if I could just force A-NET to reverse the WvW map changes; there I have truly loved the old borderland with the big central lake but I guess that is sadly a no go. :-)

Crafting first legendary - basic questions

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Semris.7520

Semris.7520

Hello,

1) Can I craft legendary for my current main character on the other one who has all the crafting skills (same like I did with ascended gear)? So my current main char would gather all the mats, precursors etc. and my crafter would do the honors.

2) Do you unlock legendary skins? I’m mainly after a skin, would be a pain to craft two legendary pistols.

Thanks for answer.

Cannot buy Gems for money

Just so others with similar problem have some additional info – payment options are indeed back but I still get errors when trying to pay using them. In other words PayPal and credit card options are back but do not work (they do not work for me since Saturday as mentioned above) so it was only partial success in my case.

I have sent you the PM.

  • EDIT: My issue got fixed shortly after sending the PM.

Rather interesting development. The option to pay either with credit card or PayPal is gone and now you can only pay with paysafecard (whatever that is) – I just got home from office. So I´m guessing there is more behind this than just me having a problem.

Actually I didn´t create a ticket, I used report bug option. It´s probably something different!

I guess buying gems works for you and this issue is limited to my account?

Hello,

just want to ask if buying gems for money is down for third day (at least) or not. Tried buying gems from Saturday to this morning, I always get error after confirming the trade (third screen). Nobody in-game was able or willing to answer my question about it, also written two support tickets. I was checking GW2 twitter and web pages for this info (if there is some issue) without success.

Would be nice to know if it´s my account issue or general one.

Thanks for answer.

Change Hunter´s shot the way it was...

in Suggestions

Posted by: Semris.7520

Semris.7520

“Hunter’s Shot: This skill no longer applies vulnerability on each hit, but now grantss the ranger stealth for 3 seconds.”

Now every game has it´s good sides and bad sides. But some features or changes can be game breaking for certain players. No point in describing why I left the MMO before I joined GW2, but to the point.

I play only for a ranger. Always play for this or similar class in every MMO. I´m using a long bow as primary weapon, have strong dislike for the other options. And now you have changed fine 3 shots (+ basic attack) rotation into 2 shots rotation where you have to avoid hunter´s shot at all costs because it turns you invisible and stops your attacks (I didn´t even notice for some time and thought it was unintended bug)…

Now I understand this might be nice situational shot, but at the moment I don´t feel like playing GW2 anymore – yes for me this simple change to my favorite weapon is game breaking.

So I suggest – would you kindly return it as it was before?

And this just had to happen at the start of my two weeks off the job, just my luck.
