Guild Wars 2

Originally, when it came to personal story, it was a bit more fun to level because the next personal story was available right away at level 2. Every time you completed the personal story you have incentive to level because you only had to be a level 3 or 4 to play the next story (or if you wanted a bit of a challenge, play it when you are under level). Doing just a few hearts or an event was not too bad because then you could play the story again shortly.

Now, it is grind to level 10. Play a few story missions and then grind again. And as wooden potatoes had said in one of his recent videos. The personal story is just too easy the way it is set up now.

2 things that bugged me the most in this video that Anet needs to work on.

1. The personal story is not unlocked until level 10. Meaning by the time new players reach level 10 they are bored with heart quests and want to quit the game. They may not even realize that there is a story to play. (I understand that the personal story has its own set of issues, but still)

2. When did they change that in order to play WvW you have to level 31??. I have not gone to WvW with a low level character recently so I never noticed that. Why did they change this? It is big turn off to new players who are coming to game because they were interested in this feature only.

As a person playing this game since launch, I was interested in seeing first impressions of new players to guild wars 2 with all these recent new updates and patches.

So I found this video on YouTube of a person playing the game for the first time. I think this video says everything that is good and bad about the game for new players!

I think Anet has some big issues to resolve when it comes to getting people interested in the game.

After finishing map completion with one character, I wish we could purchase something from the gem store that unlocks all waypoints for alts.

I mean it gets really boring running around map after the 4th or 5th alt.

Is there a rep from the guild [Para] on Ebay that can contact me please? Not sure if it’s a guild tactic or a member, but you have a mesmer that is intentionally glitching and exploiting walls. have the screens to prove it, and has happened on 4 different towers thus far on Eternal. Thanks…

Can you post the screens please. I am part of that guild.

I hate scrolling through this forum looking for our tier’s thread. Is it possible to make it so that all the tier’s forums are in a separate group or something? This is definitely not that big of a deal, but will make things easier to find.

Having FA or TC in tier 3 is messing up the rest of the tiers. There are six spots in tier 1 and 2 for seven servers. Kaineng coming up the ranks sorta messed up the tiers a bit. I know it is not that big of a deal, but wouldn’t having the following matches be more even?

Tier 3 = Mag, Yaks, DB
Tier 4 = EB, SBI, CD,
Tier 5 = DR, IoJ, ?

Just beat Desolation and you will be blue.

It would neat if you could merge European and American servers together to make 17 tiers. Yes, there will be an issues when it comes to time zones and some other things. But still battles will be more epic and you will play a variety of servers each week.

In order to keep the wvwvw matches even score wise here is a possible suggestion.

If you look at the score at some current games you can see for example that Kaineng server has a significant lead over Gate of Madness and Henge of Denravi. Same goes for the Blackgate server who has a good lead over Sanctum and Tarnished Coast.

What if when a server is ahead by 20000pts or more the other two teams should have the ability to vote if they want to form a temporary alliance for a few hours. In this time they would be able capture the other teams bases together. This way matches will be closer and keeps making wvw fun to play. Whenever the two teams capture a base it can turn the color yellow instead or red green blue so there is no arguing on which team captures the base. Once the temporary alliance is finished the teams can battle again for the places they captured together.

Do you think this can be a good idea? Why or why not?
