Scrimmage gametype?

in WvW

Posted by: ToxicTorgo.1805

ToxicTorgo.1805

From time to time, I see large numbers of players bunched up in a WvW map, “scrimmaging,” on top of or near objectives. This effectively closes off access to that area of the map, and sometimes prevents access to the map altogether as the players take up the WvW slots.

I have no issue with people playing the game as they want. More power to them.

But ANet: How about giving them a gametype and maps of their own, and preserving WvW for people who are playing WvW? Good idea? Bad idea?

P.S.: Dueling doesn’t seem to be an issue in WvW. These happen in small numbers without taking up much real estate. Scrimmaging, however, is intrusive and smacks of conspiracy! :-D

Bank Access Express not stacking

Put them all in your inventory, change maps (or use [f12] as if you were going to swap characters), and they should combine ok afterward.

Saw your post on another thread – worked for me – thanks for the hack!

Bank inventory stacking items

There’s a work-around for this:

  • put all the items into your inventory.
  • change maps (or use [f12] as if you were swapping toons)
  • come back

they should stack after this.

Worked for me. Looking forward to not having to haxxor around this, though.

Yup. Lots of items aren’t stacking now. Boosters, BL claim tickets, scrolls of knowledge…

Can't buy gems from gemstore

Well, I was able to buy gems once … ONCE. And I was able to buy 5 shadow dyes. But of the 5, none were actually shadow dyes. So perhaps I shouldn’t complain that I can’t buy more gems, as they’re kind of a shadow RL money hole.

Thanks, ANet, for saving me from RNG disappointments.

Does Halloween end tonight?

in Living World

ToxicTorgo.1805

Yes, this is disappointing. I thought I’d read that Halloween would be up until 11/11. Maybe I did, maybe I didn’t … but not seeing anything official, I ass/u/me’d I had another week to carve 5 more pumpkins to get the master carver achievement.

Guess I larned me mah lesson.

P.S. – I didn’t see an end date on the login screen or on the official wiki. I thought I’d looked.

Connection error 7:11:3:191:101 [merged]

Starting within the last 12 hours, I’m getting " Connection error 7:11:3:191:101 " very frequently – often I last <1 minute in game. If I do stay in game for a while, I rubber-band, a lot.

Like Kazuto, it’s definitely hit me only after the 8/25 patch.

Why is the game lagging so much recently?

I hadn’t lagged in this game at all until just last night (starting around 9pm CDT Aug 25). Now the game is unplayable. At best, I’m rubber-banding quite a lot – I mash buttons and see what happens later. At worst, I hit a couple instances of “Connection error 7:11:3:191:101” per minute.

First time in weeks I haven’t done daily achievements, and it’s not due to lack of trying. It’s just physically impossible to play the game now.

Superior Rune bugs

Funny thing is, that while (a) most of my friends have stopped playing GW2 for various reasons, (b) I have stuck with it because I enjoy the game, even as a single player RPG, (c ) I generally love the game and defend it against all comers, and (d) I’ve supported the game financially with purchased gems more than I hope my wife ever finds out about: I just finished putting together a Thief build based around Superior Runes of Rage, trusting the accuracy of the in-game descriptions of the equipment and skills involved. (I try to avoid aping the cookie-cutter build-of-the-month, so as to be original.) Now I learn that I probably shouldn’t have gone to the effort, or trusted the specs on the runes. This makes me sad. (My quaggan sad, too.)

I don’t have time to do even half the bi-weekly content additions. Perhaps, could some of those resources go toward bug fixes? Or at least updates to the tool tips to state that the (6) boon is no boon at all?

I’m even paying for these updates with my gem purchases!

I want to trust this game again. Thanks for your consideration.

Clown College - getting stuck on the mime

I see that this mime has been causing problems for over nine months, per this forum post . No wonder mimes get such a bad rep.

Hi – I think this is a bug, but could always be wrong. I’m trying to complete the Clown College personal story, but each time I try the mime battle, I only get one emote from the mime. I duplicate it successfully, but then the instance stalls as I never get a second emote out of that aloof mime.

The New Cutscenes

ToxicTorgo.1805

Oh yeah. THAT’s what I’m talkin’ ‘bout. Best cut scene in any game, ever, as far as I’ve seen.

I don’t consider myself a fanboy by any stretch (waaaay too old for fanboying – I remember the days before the internet; I worked with punch cards for crissakes) … but that made me cry tears of joy, and is just the latest and greatest reason why I absolutely love this game and these ANet people (on balance).

Please, ANet, keep being different, creative, and unique. Like Ms. Frizzle says – take chances, make mistakes – because THAT’s what delivers awesome cultural content like this.

Thank you, thank you!

Hi, and thanks for working on this issue.

Is there an ETA for the bug fix?
