Do we have too many currencies?

Way too many currencies and currencies should not take up inventory space.

Quiver Question

in Black Lion Trading Co

Posted by: Weebitt.3157

Weebitt.3157

I bought the quiver and tried using it on my 33 bracer from Personal Story and it only turned into a brace that did not show (at least in preview). Did a bug report and got another quiver. Now I’m afraid to use it because I’m not sure what I need to use it on to make it “work”. Any help would be appreciated.

I couldn’t get Trading Post to work, so I decided to uninstall the game and reinstall it. However, I can’t seem to find a way to do that without buying a new game. Is there a place I can go to reinstall the game?

You can’t sell any items no matter which bag it’s in. You also can’t buy anything as the screen won’t load, and you can’t see what you have already put on the market. It’s been several days now.

Separation of PvE and PvP and WvW

Posted by: Weebitt.3157

Weebitt.3157

Every game I’ve played they always seem to ruin PvE by trying to balance PvP/World. They really should be on different skill sets, and since you can do World at a very low level, that shouldn’t be a problem for learning your skill sets.

Rox, the Charr

After reading on the forums last night, then getting to see Rox in game, I think she looks just fine, and I didn’t notice her looking “strange” at all. I liked the look, and if we have more facial options in the future, I’m all for it. As a younger kitten look it was pretty spot on, but I think her voice should have been younger to go with the look.

WvW, End of Culling and PVE?!

I’ve noticed the culling in PvE is getting terrible. In Lions Arch I walk a few steps and people pop up. The place looks empty, but as you move around you see people popping in and out…it’s awful. Even when our guild gathers in out of way spots, depending which way you turn, people are popping and disappearing. Not fun at all.

NPCs healing/rezzing

I guess this is more a suggestion so I’m putting it here.

I was out questing and I came across a dead soldier and I healed her. I was attacked and was defeated right next to her. She killed other mobs, but neglected to rez me. This seems counter to the expected AI, at least to me. If a friendly NPC is that close, it seems proper that they should rez; or am I depriving a player of the privilage?

I’m not sure how this prevents undercutting, as most items sell at or just below the vendor price when AN takes out it’s cut. It’s the clueless I guess, that lose 1c or more they would make selling their item to a vendor instead of listing on the Trading Post.

The least a good story design would be that he would remember his own cub who has just saved his life. Very unhappy with this.

Decline in housing? No, more only a few MMOs that had it, and the ones that did not I just considered “lazy”. To give players a world to experience, and have them all homeless is a design flaw as far I’m concerned. NPCs have homes, even animals and other creatures have caves and holes, only players are excluded…..I find that odd and incomplete.

Huh? No, Anet never even hinted that it would be in the game by now, or at release or anytime soon. They said they would very much like to do it and it’ll most likely happen down the road – no timetable at all.

Proof otherwise?

House System
Most MMORPGs don’t pay attention to players’ houses, but Guild Wars 2 does. All players have a house respectively in their capital after their characters were born and their house is connected with their personal biography. What’s interesting is that characters of different personalities will have distinct houses. Things inside the house are defined by players and character attributes. As long as players play the game all the time, their house will have inside changes constantly. Furthermore, the game offers abundant house ornaments and players can also gain rich booty in the adventurous journey to decorate their house. In a word, players are able to create their unique house by means of item combinations.

We will introduce player housing at some point after launch, and at that time we will also implement guild halls.

These! Especially the first one was got me so excited for GW2 and like the “Manifesto” it pretty much was ignored and pushed to the side. I remember during BWE when we could grow plants for dyes, and that was taken out, too. The Personal Instance just deterioted. <sad face>

In EQ2 one of the fun parts of having a house, is to show off. I loved visting other people’s homes to see what they did with them. You could tell where in the world these people had been and what quests they’d completed by the items displayed.

Acutally it’s been shown that housing improves retention rather than driving people away.

Guild Halls in EQ2 is what made populations disappear in the towns because guild halls had all the amenities of the town and there was no reason to use the ones in the cities. I would strongly suggest that amenities be limited in guild halls to things like whole party transporters for guild groups. And, yes, I have to agree in DAoC housing did affect towns because housing was not intergrated in the towns and had their own out of the way locations, and if you wanted to purchase from a player, you had to go to their house to buy. Nice for the people selling, not so great for the people buying; and definately caused a population depetion in towns.

A well intergrated housing system that works with cities are the way to go.

I would love housing EQ2 style, which Rift housing is based off being they hired Emily Taylor from EQ2 to do Rift. In EQ2 you didn’t have to build your house from scrath, though and I like that.

To me, Divinity’s Reach is ready made for personal and guild housing, just have to make all those doorways into instances. Would certainly open up for crafters to make house items, and things to sell on the gem store.

My only real complaint, is that I was directed to talk to the refugees. I greet them, and all I get is: “yes”, what do you want/get lost type comments, or grunts. I was expecting some stories, reactions, hints. At least on the road when I healed some of them, they were greatful, but others just rude like the merchants with their beasts. None seemed to have ANYTHING of any interest to tell me; it’s very discouraging to feel any real impathy for them.

Are you a name rebel?

Names I know from real life, most having seen birth certificates:
Chris Cross
Lemonjello (pronounced Lee-manj-ge-lo)
Orangejello (pronounced On-ge-lo)
Human Klumpp
Human Klumpp Jr
Delicious Peters
Female (pronounced Fem-mall-lee)
Prince of Wales (“of” being the middle name)
A baby named with 26 consokittenand an “i” in the middle, when asked how to pronounce it, the mother said, something like “Kid”, and asked how she got that from all those letters, she said the rest were silent. Poor kid.

These are real life names, so I guess in a game, you can have some odd ones, too.

The amount you can use chat is absurbly low before suppression kicks in. I’ve even been suppressed for excessive chat, when it was first time I chatted that day; go figure.
