Guild Wars 2

Glad you like it.

If you want to keep it that way, don’t read these forums. Haters everywhere.

It runs just fine for me and some guildies with W8.

Decrypter.1785:

Gw 1 features , where are they ?

In GW1.

Simple.

/signed

We need more frames, please. Gem shop or sell them for socks, but we need them.

I approve this.

WoW did this and there are no reasons why GW2 should not.

Just auto merge the zones if population is low, like you separate them if population is high.

Running away from events is not very fun.

Yeah…

Too bad what we desperately need those silly costumes and hats to stay competitive in game.

Pay to win, no less.

We need a Dungeon Finder tool.

Spamming /map and standing around is so 2004.

I’ll just post these two pics here:

Same settings, same place. Pay attention to what I can actually see. NO water in sight and yet…

REFLECTIONS:

This is insane.

Please, add an option to automatically disable reflections when inside a dungeon or something.

Vanguardian.4921:

They already did buff it.

And its still not enough.

Those flying orbs are ridiculously slow.

Hello! With the recent red post, I started thinking about how they can try and solve that issue and, I can see a couple of solutions:

1. Standardize models
I don’t CARE how awesome “red invader’s” sword looks or how fancy his hat is. Give us an option to use the same simple model for every player of a single race.
Just like some Korean MMOs do for towns, you can tick the box and every player will look “the same”, still gives you an illusion of living town but without huge lag. Its easier to draw 50 copies of the same character that 50 different.
It can give as much as 2 times more FPS in a scene with minimal difference in looks. I can’t see enemies unless I’m in melee range anyway.

2. Use sprites
Yes. I’m dead serious. Have you ever played Total War series? Its using highly detailed models for every unit in grand scale 200+ vs 200+ battles.
But here’s the catch: as soon as the unit is far enough(Like couple of millimeters of my screen), it turns into flat 2D animated image which reduced the load on the system.

This may be something what will take some time to implement, but it may be worth it in my opinion.

Please, I’d like to hear the opinions on this matter.

Adine.2184:

just give it a different last name and quite frankly if you’re using your real name as your character name there are serious security risks there ..

Haha, no.
Same “nickname”, not my real name. That would be pretty silly.

As the person above me noted, everything is already account based. I can relog on another character and still be in the same group I logged out from on another and I can read mail\collect TP items on every character.

My character is me and I don’t want to think of some random gibberish every time I create an alt.
Friends know me by name, why not let us keep it on all characters?

Forget the Longbow. Give us a Rifle.

Like Sniper Rifle. With… Silencer.
