Guild Wars 2

You forget about mounts

So, you want more grind?

xD

No thanks.

Well I will not let this thread die so easily I just found old trailer for GW2 and what I really wanna see in game are charrs like this one, standing upright proud bla bla bla better for me.

And the expac is a nice time to give us more options to customize our characters not only in terms of how they works (specializations and stuff) but also how they looks

Ooooorrrrrrrrr…

GIVE US MOUNTS

Rytlock is wielding a spear not staff, if it was a staff he wouldn’t use this like a contact weapon.

Mounts… Maybe one day… [*]

But it’s nice idea to have racial-themed gliders like mechanic for charrs etc.

I know that thanks what I want to point all the time is that Rytlock has better animations than other charrs so I asked about completely new set of them just to have more customization options for our characters and how this could be applied to not hurt those who like current animations and for other races I explained in first post.

It’s not something super important for the game but since my main is charr I felt obligated to ask about that

gervasium.4567:

While posture changes would be nice, I didn’t notice anything special with Rytlock. He was WALKING on two legs, not running, and you can do that already in the game.

Yea but you need to be in combat or run with drawn weapon which is little silly :P but yes his animations are slightly different than in game charr anim.

ZombieLeach.5862:

I think this would be a neat novelty for Charr characters, but I don’t see how this could be applied to the other races. An Asura running on all fours would be a rather humorous sight.

Well I had not thought about that in this way but for human races it could be something like, you want to make new necro so you will choose hunched posture intead of default to look darker or like your character is old etc.

It’s just too cool to be hold only for 1 character

But as I said before I do not want to replace those anim, just let us choice between new(?) and old to please those who like them and those who don’t.

Everything that was announced is just amazing, but…

We’ve seen that Rytlock animations were slightly different than charr animations in game, so my question is:

Can you give us (charrs) ability to change those animations like walking or standing to be more upright more badas* you know ;D, running only on our feets (similar to charr NPC anim) instead of like an animal?

Something like that could be applied to all races through the character creation or total makeover kit, you are just choosing posture of your character and by this i mean set of animations.

Sorry for any language or grammar errors, english isn’t my native language ;p

Lol we’ve get specializations and completly new profession, something like new race is not even close to that it could wait or even never happen for me. Specializations and Revenant will provide much more fun and actual gameplay than new race.

Tengu has similar animations and skeleton to charr, the only difference is that they looks more like bird than a cat :P

I will never play birdcharr or bearnorn but a new profession with new weapons would be great

You have my axe GIVE IT BACK!!!

For me the main problems with charrs are their idle/run animation and heavy chest(i think some of them are too skinny for a charr warrior compared to gauntlets and shoulders)/legs pieces, they should be redesigned (but not like the heavy chest piece from sorrow’s embrace). Im not even thinking about helms, just not using them.

And “little” offtop becasue we are in a thread about charrs so there is no reason to make another one especially when there is no charr section anymore :p

Idle animation for me should looks like something around 1st Grok Krog screen you know there should be more pride in it because now they are like “I’m tired and depressed pls kill me” they are not even looks like they are dangerous and ready to attack in every moment, just hunched and tired of life.

And ANET pls give us choice between run animation as it is now and the one used by charr NPC’s. It’s stupid (at least for me) that highly developed race is moving like an ordinary animal (and it’s only for player character so it’s double stupid, maybe not that bad for someone like ranger but for warrior in heavy armor with a greatsword on his back the level of stupidity is over 9000). Also can you imagine the hero of Tyria and a slayer of an elder dragon messing his hands in mud or dolyak sh** just becasuse he can’t use only his legs for running, not even saying about using mounts xD

Anyway propably no one in ANET cares about charrs (as it was said before), but maybe one day… so pls bump this thread from time to time, we (charrs) want to be heard!

And sorry for my engrish :P

You see irony in wrong place. Isn’t it ironic that we are forced to grind like a mad for nearly anything in that game (ascended items, legendary weapons, nice skins etc.) instead of have to do epic quest chain with good story or something like that? Isn’t it ironic that we are forced to grind for weapon skills, personal story and other things that are locked behind levels now? IN THE GAME THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE WITHOUT GRIND!? Because grind isn’t funny, that was said by devs before the GW2 release.

Zanshin.5379:

That’s the thing. The game is full of potential. The living world is full of potential. But that’s just it: potential. After 2 years we know that there is so much that could be done but ArenaNet is refusing to do it. I don’t think it’s a money problem because they keep releasing (lackluster) content. It’s just not the content we want.

I want to thank ArenaNet for finally showing that they are not willing to do what they need to do. At least I can move on.

It seems that you can read my mind totally agreed. I just can’t stand how they are wasting that potential

I’m not greedy, I just don’t like that content we are getting now, so it is logic that I want more and better content and I’m willing to pay for it, I don’t want more free content which I don’t like.

The one thing that I can’t understand is that Arena Net prefers to make slowly, low quality content (at least for me) for free intead of make an expansion with more and better content that will cost as much as the game but will provide in summary more entertainment than that we are getting every two weeks now. It’s just beyond my understanding. Is that becouse they are stubborn or what?

And btw. the biggest dissapointment was the promise about game without grind and now if i want make legendary or ascended gear or there is a skin i like i need to grind more than in any other game i played before…

And sorry if my English isn’t perfect, I’m trying to improve it all the time :P

The same problem with heavy chest piece of armor from sorrow embrace, but only on male charr, now it’s undersized and looks idiotic so I completely stopped using it. AN should give us a chance to choose old or new version of remastered pieces of armor. (sorry for my english :P)

It was one of the best part of armor for my charr, now he looks ridiculously. Change it back please!!!
