Guild Wars 2

Nike.2631:

We’ll be mining for wood, next.

I sincerely hope they fix the animation on the sickle.

lol, yea seems we are mining for everything now no need for harvesting or logging anymore :P

I would love to buy the Harvesting sickle and when the Logging Sickle come out but i was abit late for the Mining Sickle will it become availeble again or was it a one-time only thing? As i would have liked to get the whole set.

for a “MMORPG” where Single player only “dungeons” are involved i am lost in words, was looking forward doing Canach with my girlfriend and now we can’t do it together neither can i help her and she is struggeling with it and even now she don’t wanna do it anymore, and i am all by myself doing NULL now, thanks ANET you kitten ed of my girlfriend.

Was looking forward for this patch.. and now it’s done in 15minutes sigh, and still no Karka Queen, really not impressed with this patch.

Fred Fargone.3127:

To answer the question presented in the OP, I’d say it’s because ANet’s view on guilds is that they are not some ingame corporations, and as such, you do not wish to kick people based on their efficiency in the guild, but rather some other reasons, such as not fitting in the community you provide.
Kinda similar why there are no inspect feature or damage meters for dungeons.

Well, that is just my theory, but to me, it looks like ANet wants everybody to have fun with their product, not stress about logging in or getting kicked out of their favorite guild.

If that is true then why did they limit guilds to 500? They should have knew better it will get full sooner or later and we will have problems knowing who we can kick or not.

And again new patch nothing usefull for guild management, getting rather annoyed by now.

Don’t forget “Last Online” for guilds!

We are still waiting for a simple “Last Online” from the guild panel feature, how hard can it be to implement?

NO.

Level 80 is more than enough, just bring in more End Game content to-do for higher levels and we good enough.

Rising Dusk.2408:

Each one has a different infusion type (offensive, defensive, utility).

oh thanks, i did not even notice

Can anyone explain why are their 3 of each Amulet which contains the same stats.. and you can only wear 1 amulet anyway?

Anyone know where the other one is located ?

Fay.2735:

I’m happy with the patch but would also love to see massive improvements in the guild UI, MOTD should be posted in the chat when people login for example. Last login is a must. Stacking in guild vault. Guild missions I guess were pushed to February? Of course would love guild halls and doing mini-games with guild groups etc.

Would love to see those being implemented.

Lolana.9413:

From a guild leaders standpoint, and someone who is very detail oriented, the guild panel is not very friendly. The Message of the Day cube is irritatingly unfriendly to type in. The only way I can fully tell who has been on is to send out an individual mail to all my guildies, 80+ members (with a mail spam feature that keeps me from sending only 1 mail a minute..) to do a roll call.
I’ll be truly elated once they fix these features as well as many others and add more guild rewards. Its definitely not impeding on my guilds atmosphere or structure but giving guilds more incentive to hold loyal members would also be a plus!

I know exactly how you feel, i have the same problem, and that Message of the Day is terrible and no point as well as it don’t pop up when members login to show it, but all i want for now is the “Last Login” so i can atleast free space within the guild.

From a game which is called “Guild Wars” no real focus going on with guilds tbh, been having my hopes up just too see a “Last Online” or “Last Login” same thing since last year from BETA stages.

Been so many patches from last year and rarely been any Guild updates, and most important one we been waiting for is a “Last Online” within guilds, i am getting so sick now with manual looking who is inactive or not just to make space in my guild for new members and then allways accidently kick someone who was not inactive.

Come now Anet.. how hard can it be for just bringing in a “Last Online” within the guilds.

Our guild did a pretty fun event where we all transformed in Plush Griffons with the Tonics ;-)

It’s been mentioned alot and never once been told if it will be implemented or being looked at, i don’t see how it could take so long for a feature that should have been here since launch and still not implemented, for larger guilds it’s a nightmare to admin your current members and see who is inactive or not by making free space for new members.
Please inform us if this features are being looked at.

BUTTERBLUME.3217:

Heh, at least you got one.

lol, and what do i do with it? it’s no use for me without having the correct stats, can’t salvage it, can’t sell it, can’t exchange it…. so whats the point unless giving it for your other characters which i don’t have.

Agree on the last part, got a ring as well now which is not the stats i want.. and now sitting with a Ascended ring just lying in my bag.

We really need a “Dungeon Finder” for this Fractals, been sitting most of the time logging out and in on overflow servers just to try get a group for my level, and with so many levels it’s getting harder by the day.

Please can we stop with events and rather focus on the “Suggestion Thread” and “Bug Threads” abit more please? We have been requestion a simple thing as seeing who has been last online in a guild since launch and still no feedback.
It’s getting tougher each day who we can kick and who not from our full guilds, if you can’t bring a “Last Online” atleast bring in more cap, make it 1000 Members per guild untill the “Last Online” is implemented.
Hope someone from Anet reads this.

graceangel.3618:

That’s true. If someone is NEVER representing you; or maybe if they haven’t been online since sometime in september after they hit 80; how do you know they’ll come back? maybe you wanna make room for active members. if they come back later can join the secondary guild.

Exactly my point.

I am a guild leader from a large guild and we are now busy with our third guild as we can’t really kick members from our other guilds as we don’t really know who was online last and who not and by writing names down and check their last online manual from 1000 members ( 2 Guilds ) is not the way to-do it.

All this extra guilds thats being made for more space for members could have been prevented by having a “Last Online” and “Last Represented” in place.

Can’t be that hard to implement, please help us out as Guild Leaders to maintain our guilds better and get rid of inactive members and make space for active ones.

Thanks!

I have been hoping for this option since release, we are now losing players who want invites in our guild and we have no idea who we can kick and make space, simple thing is making more than 1 guild now, we now have 2x 500 Member Guilds and just started our third, but this is not the right option, we need a “Last Online” option ASAP.

Ryaan.7143:

Just came up with this idea now. Arenanet, is there any chance that you can make marriage available in this game? I am a experienced mmorpg gamer, 3 years, and I played Rift few of those months and I remember when they put marriage into the game, the fun, the joy, and the ’’status’’.

Please, answer. Is this a idea that you may even consider in the future?

Cheers

lol dude get a life, rather get a real life partner and marry her and play Guild Wars 2 together than stalking people ingame.

+1 all the above, but we need something like “Last Online” and “Last Represented” as well.

Jiminimokna.1270:

For 100g I think having the icon appear on the map is a a fair exhange.

I am with you, why would we pay 100 Gold for something thats less worthy or if they remove things making it less worth 100 Gold, then they should start giving refunds.

Just bring in Region lock so US/EU players can’t play on each other’s servers.

Morning all, i did read all the replies i missed from yesterday and i must say each comment helped me alot, thanks alot for the replies.

I am now running with 2 other commanders on my server and we using tactics together for our server.

Kazim.2043:

My guild only have 80 members but they are all great guys/girls. I’m a commander also thx to them.

Getting this haters as well like i do and mentioned?

Thrumdi.9216:

The problem is, on my server at least, the first people to get the SC absolutely sucked. It was obvious they played very little WvW, and only got the book through PvE. This lead to constant, justified criticism in team chat.

Unfortunately, this seems to have poisoned the well to a certain extent, which is what you have encountered.

Yea seems like it as well, that is why we need something to be done from Anet so people can respect commanders more in a way, you can only ignore so many people before you just wanna quit the game from all the hate.

Shintai.5618:

I fear when people buy the book for fun. But right now I dont consider commanders rich kids.

Currently on Aurora Glade, people think you bought the book for fun or you just rich who bought it with gems.

Denial Of Service.5732:

i understand, but… do you really care what others think? i mean…

if they are verbal abusing you theres a report feature for that, if they harass you for being a commander just dont listen it seems you have 2 pretty solid guilds and i can assure you you have some nice ppl to play with.

haters gonna hate, trolls gonna troll, if you feed them you lose.

Thanks for that info

Would have been realy nice if we had like the 100 Gold needed and people need to vote for you somehow, i think then it will gain more respect.

Deboog.1847:

This is a problem with the community. Not with the commander book. The commander book forces you to either be: A) dedicated to leading in WvW, or B ) have a giant guild backing you. Both are great qualifications for leading in WvW. If people think you are just being a rich show off, that’s fine. The block function exists for a reason.

I do for sure have my guild backing me, but i realy don’t want people to think by just being commander is being a rich person with no life, it needs some respect or some way it can be earned on a better way where people will respect it more and not just think you wasted 100 Gold or by being rich.

Being a commander needs serious action from Anet, i am a commander and i get countless verbal abuse and insults from players who says the following.
1.) “Seriously wasted 100Gold on a blue marker on your head”
2.) “Rich kitten”
3.) “Why waste 100Gold on that?”
Just from the above people think you wasted 100Gold on the commander book and disrespect each commander.
I am a guild leader from a 1000 member guild ( 2x 500 Members ) Which is a South African guild, and all the members donated towards the book for me being commander so we can have better WvW and PvE Events.
This wispers and /map chat is getting out hand and in WvW people just immediatly think you rich and bought the book for the looks.
So cut to the point… Commander basicly now stands for being rich and have 100Gold to waste, brings no respect from anyone.

Currently people join my squad.. i don’t even know they do or see who is in my squad, and they just use /squad chat.. I’ll even talk with ghost not knowing who i spoke with or with how many i am currently speaking with over /squad chat.

It’s cool and all people can see you with the big blue marker.. but how do you see your squad members and manage them better without propper functions.

The below is something we realy need as a commander.

1.) Be able to see who joins your squad, even if it’s a message in the chat log “James just joined your Squad”, But we need a window like the party option or a diffrent UI/Interface where we can see who is in the squad, and make it manageble for Commanders.. like options where you can kick players from the squad.

2.) Make it so you can see where your squad members are on the map.. like those dots in a diffrent colour, currenly we can’t see who is in your squad or even know where those people are who is in your squad.. does not make sence at all.

3.) Option where you can lock the squad and invite members in the squad, so if you want to invite guild members only you can lock the squad and invite those you want in it.

4.) Make it even more harder being a commander not only from buying it for 100 Gold.. Say for instance you should have people voting for you, require 50 votes + 100 Gold or something, atleast then it will be more respected and feel worth it more.

Most important is we need more functions and the two important ones are able to see who is in your squad and where they are on the map.

Please Anet we need more functions for commanders.

I bought the commander book yesterday from my guilds donations towards it so we can do better WvW action and where they can see me on the map.

But what i would like to have is to see who is in your squad, and lock your squad and invite/kick members from it.

Currently people can see me but i wanna see the members in my squad as well.. people talk over the squad channel but i am like wtf.. i can’t even see who i am talking with.

Realy need a way to see who is in your squad.. and kick people from your squad and lock your squad, and see icons on your map from where your members are who is in your squad.

I just got the book, and started my squad, but how do you see who is in your squad? And are there a option where you can lock the squad and only invite members you want in it like guild members etc?

Agree, the Masks from rangers are realy not that cool, i would have prefer a helm.

Mexay.4521:

I like this suggestion, but I also don’t understand the need to have two guilds for one.

500 members is A LOT. We have our cap at 200 at the moment and if we hit it, well… that just becomes silly. 500 people is on average a reasonably sized school (where I live, anyway). We have already been kicking people for various reasons (the main one is people with a poor attitude, we try to keep a high standard).

Could you honestly name 500 people? I can’t even name the 100 in mine. I could probably tell you maybe 20 of us off the top of my head and most of us represent.

Anyway, I would thoroughly agree with OP though. We need the options for it. It helps keep people who clog up space and make the guild appear stupidly large, out.

500 is a good amount but without having a “Last Online” or “Last Represented” it’s realy hard, thats why we made 2x 500 guilds as we have no idea who is realy inactive.

Handies.7602:

Shirou.4098:

Problem is.. more and more guild leaders are telling the members if you not gonna represent us then you will be kicked.. so why do we even have a “Represent” other guild option, most Guild Leaders don’t wanna allow members to be in other guilds that might be there enemy.

I kick people that dont want to represent. Why you may ask? There is no point in joining a guild if you are going to represent another.

True! now the members just don’t understand it, and Anet made it worse for Guild Leaders, you kick those who don’t represent and people get mad and ask why, even though we have limited space in the guild and keep needing to tell them we need space for members who do wanna represent us only.

Problem is.. more and more guild leaders are telling the members if you not gonna represent us then you will be kicked.. so why do we even have a “Represent” other guild option, most Guild Leaders don’t wanna allow members to be in other guilds that might be there enemy.

Fully agree.. countless threads has been made about it, same with bringing in a “Last Online” option.
