Guild Wars 2

How to describe this as easily as i can….. Down leveling in this game is a good idea, infact as far as i am conscerned 1 of the best in mmos ever. It allows new players to not have content ruined by 1 shoting max gear and max lev characters but……. The way u have done this anet is good and i think it is a good step in the direction of next gen mmos, and i do think it will b coppied if it already hasnt been. But i think a good next step would b to allow players to have the choice to stay leveled high in low lev areas, but instance them. To allow ease of certain combat, ie. 1 manning low lev dungeons so that u can actually see the entire dungeon, which is nearly impossible due to all the skipping that is done. Not to mention just running around in low lev areas if u want to farm ore, or plant ect. Now of course i know what u may say, what would keep people from exploiting easy karma gain and other things. But i am sure the kings u all r as far as DR is conscerned u have that taken care of..

1. So a lev 80 can choose to to remain norm lev and stats but b put into a certain type of over flow with like minded people so that they may have the ease of farming items, crafting materials ect.

2. Make it to where u get the same lev karma from events as u would in that area in low lev, to prevent exploiting for large ammounts of karma/gold/tokens.

3. If nothing else it would b nice to see how far u have come from that lev as far as stats and gear goes, instaead of always feeling like u maxed out your gear, and lev to have relativly the same feel of playin in a low lev area as u do in a high 1.

4. And to actually EXPLORE an explorable low lev dungeon without having to ask people to do it cause as far as it goes now people would just skip to the end if they could, and fight nothing in between. lol.

5.But any way u already have instancing, u would just have to add another 1 to your 2.(main, and over flow.) Keep people from getting tokens if they chose to stay Up leveled in a dungeon, and also recieve low lev karma for events to prevent exploits.

Any way u were the 1st as far as know to come up with the down level system which i think is good, but i think the next step in the right direction would b to allow people to have the choice, which imo will just make your game even more next gen then it already is. For anything that i have left out all i have to do is look at the game u all have made and there is proof that u can make this work also. So if u read this and like it let me know anet, but if not tell me NO then, cause i am interested to hear/read back from u. =)

i just call it like it is bro

this coming from some 1 who no doubt types LFG for AC PST lololol, what a joke. any way Peace to u also nice guy. =)

u know i think this sums it up… have a little bit of kindness and understanding for others, theres alot of people going through a tough time with that storm, and some of u alls a hole comments arnt helpin out. u heard when u were a little kid, if u cant say somethin nice dont say anything at all. u people being rude should b asshamed of yourselves. with that being said, have some good will toward men. it really does help the world to b a better place, even amongst the storms. Peace be with u all. =)

i know many dis agree with this but it would b nice if u had a configure option to allow us to map key board and mouse funtions to use a 360 controller with your game, i m sure it would b hard to use with all classes, but still i get soooooooo tired of using a naga and a mouse and a keyboard to play games. Please let me know if this is even a thought 4 u all in this game and if not could u maybe tell me what is a good add on to down laod to make this a possibility. thank u =)

yep pugs get pooed on thats just how it goes in this game, it will b anets overall recipe for failure, not to mention only playin the game for cosmetic reasons, but knowing how anet is an american company but dosnt support freedom of speech in the forums, this will prob b deleted. interesting huh……

Rainfall this pertains to u and others like u that just dont understand we all have different opinions. that dosnt make 1 right and the other wrong. But when 1 side is being catered to and the other side ignored it causes problems. We all payed for the game, there fore there should b some type of balance, or different modes, and please dont say story cause that is excluding people from a part of the game. mind u im not name callin or dissin people, nor should u or any others, the simple fact is. is we just want to play what is there, plain and simple, and from our point of veiw explorable mode is to difficult. mind u thats our opinion. no better. but also no worse then yours.

im tired of typing stuff, but i agree with u all, it just all seems to me as a crapy attempt to keep people busy, dealing with what they r calling as of now there end game till they get done with there “end game” content. I guess all I can say is anet u did such a good job with so much, these other things r soooo noticable, and it just makes u wonder…. WHY????

I love how all u elite dudes here cant stand a good point and your only tactical deffense to it is treating some other person like crap for what they said, i guess that just goes to show u what (some) of the people r like that actually think dungeons r good the way they r. but seriously the only way to truly b successful is to keep every 1 happy, and sense we didnt make the game, thats u alls job anet. u cant just give 1 or the other the finger. but seriously u should consider a way to make every 1 happy, i mean after all u have different modes already, why not an easier explorable mode or something, im not saying changing the hard. just add something, i mean seriously would keeping every 1 happy b that bad 4 buisness………

Yep, u all i agree with u, and feel 4 ya. I feel the same way, though u all put it better then i can type it. I guess the only reason this bothers me so much is cause this is prob the 1st really good mmo to me. I just love where collin johanson said "if u like mmos then u will prob want to play guild wars 2, but if u dont like mmos then u will really want to try guild wars 2! sorry to say there collin, but with the way u present your dungeons that is just not true. I really do feel like anet is just giving us the finger on this, rather then trying to work with all of us.

Im not hatin on collin or the game im just a little dissapointed. i really like running dungeons, its just a nice small group thing to do, to work together, maybe if they had story mode set gear that drops i would b happy, let u guys that think u r somethin have the token gear, but just runnin a dungeon 4 the story…… if i want a good story i will whatch a movie, anet has a long way to go to catch up with spielberg. =)

and i like the pvp, at least i dont have to fight a bubble hearthing paladin, i just dont like it that they dont want to work with us, and yessss i know u r happy that they arnt blah blah blah….

and i could really give a crap, just a little dissapointed i gave this company my money….

i said i speak 4 a lot of players not all…. why dont u read it again homie.

well collin good 4 u this game has good pvp , cause u just answered my ? on whether or not i should even get involved with your pve or not, and wheather or not i would spend any more money on this game or not, no offense to u dude but im 33 yeaars old and when i play a game i want to have a good time not get my butt handed to me over and over, the only thing i can think is u all must have made enough money already, and i hope u did cause your un willingness to work with casual gamers isnt going to make u any more. im sure i speak 4 a lot of others as well.

The simple fact is, the only way to keep every 1 happy is to keep the difficulty the way it is or even make it harder for the elite players, add a title and an achiev, and give them more tokens or something like that so that they can have there show case items, titles ect that they want. but for us casual gamers that dont care about showing off our stuff in a game standing around in the city like we r somethin, just want to experience the content imo even AC story mode seems alright as far a difficulty goes but explorable mode isnt, plain and simple argue all u want most people think explorable mode is to hard. as do I. any way we payed 4 the game also and we can argue it out but, they can obviously change the difficulty of dungeons cause of the difference between story and explorable mode, so making explorable mode easier shouldnt b a prob for casual gamers and keeping it difficult for the elite shouldnt b a prob. to the elite and the casual…. People we r going to have to make a comprimise to both b happy. not fight over what is the best for an mmo. the deffinition for good music is…… good music is accordance to ones ear. We have different ears here people that dosnt make 1 right and the other wrong. Lets make this happen for the better of both. Peace u all. =)

I toatally agree with nimajneb, i cannot believe that my yellow 35 armor looked exactly like my lev 50 yellow armor, i mean its not like anet is lacking in the art department, all any 1 has to do is look at the game to see that. and i cannot stand when some 1 brings up the trasmutate comment to that complaint, that is just a rediculous comment, heck its insulting that the gear looks the same, i mean with the way the 1st yellow tier looked i was expecting something really cool 4 the next tier. But noooooooo, seriously i wouldnt even be complaining, but u all did so well with alot of the the game but with this and dungeon difficulty i just have to wonder….

but with that said good job u all i know u cant think of everything, but it would b nice if u fixed that crafting issue with some really cool looking stuff which u have already proven u can do, and pleeeeaaase fix dungeon difficulty to cater to elite and casual players. =)

Wow reading all of these things makes me think being a developer would suck, although that being said i agree with what alot of people r saying, and also dis agree. Any way, u know some of u if not alot of u leved to 80 quickly and i thought to myself WHY? I mean u wait on a game for years and then run through it, but here is where i agree with u, after playin dungeons, and yes i know there r those of u that will not agree with me, but what ever. After playin dungeons which is 1 of the ways u can milk a game to get more enjoyment out of it, (I have only done AC EX mode) which I found completly un enjoyable, now with that being said I know my skill is good enough to play the game by playin against real players in spvp, which r mostly better then npc’s. =) The only way i could see a quick fix on increasing pve play time would to make farming these instances for gear to b more viable to a larger group of people, ie not the super hard core. I think the only thing that a hard core player really wants from an mmo is something that others cant get, but us normal players dont really care about show casing our ability, we just want to enjoy the content. so i would say that the developers could keep the instance difficulty the same 4 the people who like it, and idk lets say… add a title or an achievment that they can have 4 getting through it. But allighn explorable mode more with story modes difficulty, for us more normal players so that we can still enjoy the content as well. and honestly idk if it looks the same 4 u all but all the rare gear from the dungeons looks the same, but the exotic gear is what looks different, now if thats the way it looks to u all also and its not a game bug then…… im sorry but anet what were u thinkin, the only reason most of us want to run a instance is for new looking, better gear. But any way with all that said i know the recipe for success is to keep every 1 happy, which i know is hard to do, but the hard core gamers and the normal r going to have to get different modes of difficulty, and come to some kind of comprimise to make evrey 1 happy. maybe this belongs on a different topic but i think that dungeon difficulty, and rewards from doing them can add to a players over all play time and experience in a game, and thats why i put it here. so to all u elite players out there i hope if they change things u get your show case items, and to all us casual, hopefully we can actually get though these things, and still get some good gear if not just a good experience together.
