Change to dailies

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Skugga.5298

Skugga.5298

We used to have monthlys like you suggested for weekly objectives. However once the players finished them within the first few days they stopped logging in for the whole month lol. I can see someone logging on for weeklys and finishing it in a few hours and log off for the rest of the week.

I remember the monthlies, indeed.
A week seems more like a normal period of time for this sort of thing.

I get what you mean, but “forcing” people to play is not a good solution either.
For me dailies are not something I log-in for, I play the game because I find it fun at the time.

The thing is that you would still have your dailies but other people would be able to finish the missed days.

Don’t really think it matters if someone wishes to log-in, finish it, log-out. That’s a personal choice, it can be done now with the dailies aswell.

Change to dailies

Skugga.5298

Dailies are good fun and help you encourage to do something in-game you normally wouldn’t do or just gives you a reminder of what you can do.

However, for me personally there are days that I don’t feel like doing some requested objective, I’m pretty sure that I’m not the only one.
There are also days people are just not able to play, (work/school/etc…).

What about changes dailies into weekly objectives?

The point with this idea is not to get rewarded once a week, but more like a catch-up system, a way to still do the previous dailies until the week ends.
This gives players back their freedom, you can then decide if you want to do your dailies or not.

Different objectives suited for the player.

-Pve (objectives for pve only)
-Pvp (objectives for structured pvp only)
-WvW (objectives for wvw only)
-Mix-it-up (random objectives for all game-types)

Once selected you would be locked in those objectives and wouldn’t be able to change them during the week, if you finish it then a bonus reward could be given just for your selected game-type. For example if you complete the pve weekly you could get some interesting food buffs.
A pvp weekly could contain a rank-up booster,etc…

What do you think ?

Farming

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Skugga.5298

Skugga.5298

Farming, I like it, can’t deny it.
But what I don’t like about farming is the mindless trains where all you do is follow a group , press 1 or in case of chest farm press f.

What I would like to see introduced is that single player farming is just as good as the train farming, sometimes I just like to put on some music and go kill myself some karkas, but it’s just not worth it in GW2, you always get the most profit out of trains.
It is also very hard to farm for a specific item if you wish to do so, it has been like this since beta and I hope some day a change will come.

If I need Karka Shells for example then it is easier for me to follow a chest farm train and with the profit buy them from the TP instead of killing karkas and have some what of a semi challenging and fun experience.

I don’t get how the development of this game could go from challenging content to mindless running around and get rewarded for it.

These are all good ideas, would like to see that pop-up box (confirmation box) go once you posted an item on the trade post, it is really annoying if you want to sell a lot of items at once.

The community has changed a lot over the past 3 years, in the beginning the GW2 community was one of the best in the gaming industry, in my opinion. Anyway, do think the only way to make a change is by starting with yourself and hope that your positive energy flows over to other people who in turn will pay it forward.

I understand you wish to farm for certain items instead of collecting the gold and buying it from the TP but it is indeed just a band aid fix as mentioned above and it would be nice if they would try to fix this issue, some people sure love to go through lower level zones for nostalgic purposes and farm some.

Add Cyrillic Symbols

Posted by: Skugga.5298

Skugga.5298

Yeah, I can only imagine how this would make the game more enjoyable for you guys. I’m happy we don’t have to go through the trouble to chat like that !

On the other hand there is also a big chance the game will be spammed with cyrillic and thus people might ask for Russian only servers or something like that. Since having to look at cyrillic chat or names ain’t fun for us either….

New account cheaper than buying char slots.

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Skugga.5298

Skugga.5298

You can buy the original core game anywhere from 10-20 bucks which grants 5 character slots while on the other hand 5 character slots from the gem store will cost you 50 bucks.

Character slot sales also seem to be something of a rarity.

Am I crazy, or does it seem wrong that it’s massively cheaper to buy an alt account than it is to get the same additional character slots on an existing account?

bracing for incoming hate

I’ve always found that the gem store items are overpriced, don’t get why they can’t lower the items just a bit and will make it more enjoyable for people to buy even more things…

800 Gems ==> 10 Euro

That price is almost a full month game time in other MMORPG’s.
I find that you can’t do much with 800 gems to be honest.

Mesmer Skill Bar

Hi !

This is just a proposal to change the lay-out of the Mesmer skill bar just a bit.
Right now the [F5] skill is located on top of the [F4], in my opinion this looks a bit sloppy.

My proposal is to put all the F-skills on one line and move the illusion bar up.

What do you think ?

Just had a match in Courtyard, when trying to exit the whole team was stuck in the map. We all tried to relog but that didn’t work. Now a new patch has been applied and in the PvP tab I still get prompted with “Unranked match in progress”. So I got out of the map and am once free to go but I am not able to join a new match.

[Suggestion] Mobile equipment bank

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Skugga.5298

Skugga.5298

Hi all,

At the moment I find it very hard to browse through my bag for equipment, I like most aspects of the game, dungeons / fractals, WvW , etc.. Plus I like to try out diffirent builds, meaning that I swap my armor frequently.

With all these diffirent sets that have diffirent icons and sigils it is not an easy task to swap armor sets fast and efficient.

Solution: Mobile equipment bank

How does it work ?

Almost the same as the wardrobe tab, your equipment does not get stored in your bags anymore but in the mobile equipment bank tab, where you are able to find your armor by type (stats) or by sigil. If you enter a sigil name in the search function for example then only the items with that sigil will be highlighted while the other items are greyed out.


What are your thoughts ?
Would this idea fix your current problems ?
Anything that you would add instead ?
Is another solution better than this ?

Let’s talk about it ! : )

Do you think they have an ingame gemstore and updates that revolve new skins because it is all free ? Think again ! I know off people who spend double the price of other MMORPGS a month and most people who do that just do it to SUPPORT A-net but what do they get in return for support ? Grind , and more grind.

3 big economy problems

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Skugga.5298

Skugga.5298

There is only 1 big economy problem in this game and that is the gem store !

As long as they have their gem store , they will nerf every farming spot, you’ll keep getting meaningless loot, and every new update will be behind the gem store.

Might aswell login open the gem store and just play that game instead because that’s what they want. “We made a game for the players!”, Lol ! During that manifesto they should have phrased it "We made a store for the stupid :`) ! ".

FYI: if they remove gemstore, they’ll have to shut down this game after the Festival and fire all the staff.

Sorry to burst your bubble.

They can keep the game running with X-packs. It’s that simple.
No need to apologize, you can break my bubble :`)

I can't enjoy sPvP anymore

in PvP

Posted by: Skugga.5298

Skugga.5298

Hi !

I’m sorry for such a bad title but it’s the truth, today I gave sPvP another shot but somehow I cannot enjoy it anymore, I’m rank 32 played some sPvP and have enjoyed it but that was before I knew anything about it.

Capturing bases
Can someone please explain me why capturing bases is showing off skill ?
-Biggest zerg wins the base.
-Team with most bunkers gets the base.

Downed state
Really, after all this time the downed state is still in sPvP, I wonder why, seriously I can’t figure out why this is a good idea. If I get someone down, his friend comes along and revives his teammate the 1vs1 just got reversed in 2vs1, I will lose just because he had the luck someone came along and revived him.

Maps
Skyhammer,… yes ! I’m rushing in here but in all honesty who doesn’t find this just a frustrating map ? Okay, I like the jumping pads, fun stuff.. but an overpowered AOE mechanic that almost one shots players ? Glass that breaks and kills you (This is just a very casual fun map, it infact reminds me of the Counterstrike glasswar map, imagine this map in competitive play.)

These are just a few quick points that frustrate me while playing sPvP, most of it just feels like a game of luck (this is my personal opinion, you don’t need to agree).
And in most MMORPGs I have played, PvP should be about skill.

Does anyone feel the same way or am I seeing the mechanics from a wrong perspective ?

Precursor

Skugga.5298

I just bought mine of the TP and it costed me a lot of coins. I don’t think it is faire that some people are able to get a Legendary faster than others just because they are lucky.

I agree, there should be another way to obtain a precursor instead of just luck. Don’t really mind how it will work, or what system they have in mind for it but I hope it is not crafting…. collecting materials or buying them off TP is also nothing that gives you more pride in owning a precursor or legendary.

In the past I tried to gamble, and threw over 600+rares in the MF without any luck. Never had it dropped either and do have a good amount of played hours.

Why don't we ALL play berserker warriors?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Skugga.5298

Skugga.5298

I also have a Warrior (leveled this one up back in the day when you could farm COF P1 and back then you went with 4 warriors and 1 mesmer or just 5 warriors).

My first character was actually a thief, and I still love to play my thief a lot more, but while playing my thief I also notice how warriors feel a bit over the top.
Just because I like to play diffirent professions I would love to see all the other professions come to the same level as a warrior or the warrior comes down the same level as the other professions, for me either way would be perfect.

It does feel like the warrior has it all , can deal a lot of damage, doesn’t feel squishy at all, can heal with shouts, even ignore damage for 4 seconds and the best part is speed, while exploring, leveling or just dungeon runs for me speed is everything, I always liked the characters with a speed boost. Just because of the lack of a decent speed boost on mesmer I haven’t leveled one yet.

Tldr; Warrior stands out a bit more compared to other professions, would love to see all professions balanced.

Why don't we ALL play berserker warriors?
