Guild Wars 2

As much as I love the new mac client there are some problems that make the game frustrating. Graphics errors in character screen and load times aside, these are the things that make my game unplayable at times:

1) Keyboard suddenly unable to type in chat/inventory search etc. at all. Other game interactive functions work fine, as such keyboard is obviously still functioning, I just can’t type in my in-game client. Alt-tabbing to check the keyboard proved it multiple times that keyboard can type in any other aspect. Also when trying to tab back into game instantly crashes it. The game can be played without ability to type, and won’t crash until alt-tabbed from, but it is frustrating when you are in an event or WvW and all of a sudden you can’t communicate. It can occur passively throughout the game and I don’t know the trigger as I only notice it when I try (and fail) to communicate. Resetting the game fixes it until the problem comes back again (which is always just a matter of time). I have not managed yet to artificially cause this bug to occur so I don’t know the reason for it.

2) Flickering of special effects such as aoe rings or capture point. They will jump around between ground, mid air or sometimes just show up vertically on a wall (don’t have spider-climb ability yet). This isn’t as bad with my own aoes and capture points as I know where they should be (still shouldn’t have to be guessing it), but it is extremely debilitating during events and particularly, during WvW.

I have problems with finishers too where they keep revering to the rabbit, and thus made me unable to get the finisher achievement for Halloween.

Between vortexes that dont show up (I assume stuck somewhere in wall given the frequent bug reports about it) and pretty much every single fragility buff spawning inside purple dot circles (even is trying to spread them around) I found this one quest frustrating and (to me) game breaking. Final fight to be exact. I need a break from this game before I start hating it as a whole, and hopefully, by the time I get back it will be fixed…

I have the same problem, i get at best 80 per event in EoTM. With 17k I need to reach lvl 30 it’s a joke. I used to be able to level reasonably in EoTM, but now it’s ridiculous. Unless that reverts back I doubt I will ever make an alt now.

As interesting as it sounds I would like to know what they gonna do with the winning apps. Do the creators lose the rights to them? Are they going to distribute them, and IF so, will they be available as freeware, or would they try to charge for them (and in such case, does the creator gets royalties from sales…), or can developer distribute the app for free/fee themselves? Just wondering, is all.
