Guild Wars 2

bump, anet pls.

I am disappointed in this potion. Not by the look because i personally like the cosmetic upgrade but by the fact that a player cannot keep this cosmetic appearance in wvw,pvp, or dungeons. I feel like this is only a minor appearance change and idk why it would possibly cause a glitch or unfair advantage. Can Anet maybe record it so that we can use it in all instances? Anyone agree?

good point lala. i appreciate ur PoV.

thank you ashen. i appriciate it

Xianos you PoV seems very…interesting. Not sure if i would go that way with the romances, but hey just more potential they can enrich their story with. Thanks for your feedback!

Raine, Thank you i appreciate your support. I just wish Anet takes a look and at least gives us a little glimpse of hope in the game.

Raine, I am just posting a strong opinion, if i could do it anonymous i would. I don;t care if people know me because my IGN isnt even close to my account name. I just want to draw attention to things that could greatly increase their effectiveness and possibly aim them towards improving pvp. So that I can once again tell friends how great GW “is” instead of “was”

I agree with you Milkduds, I don’t disagree that they should stop making World Boss stuff, because it is very revolutionary. But you have to admit that the blatant disregard of structured PvP is very unsettling. I think that their “Keep the players in the dark” approach when it comes to content is a double edged sword. It keeps the current players on the edge of their seat and very excited when new things come out. BUT! it also severely hinders their new ability to make more players and keep some players playing due to the fact that they don’t know what progression this game is doing and if their is any new progression happening at all. More along the lines of worrying if this game will only make it to 2 years old due to the fact that they don’t suit the needs of PvP’ers and New player’s attention. (No offence but i highly doubt they was a single new player gained from a Mari and Worm boss added to world interaction).

I have been a loyal Guild Wars player/ Fan for years. I have even brought many friends into the world of Guild Wars (1 and 2). But I have to say, Guild Wars 2 has such high potential yet has very little to none progression.
PVE: -The ever changing PvE is exciting and brings a new aspect into video games. The environment is very interactive with activities and is very well detailed.
-They lack more do-able large scale PvE. With introduction of the Worms and Marionette this is very fresh and new, but I am talking more along the lines of raiding with your friends in groups larger than 5 and without complete strangers to have to rely on and pray they do the objective right. Groups of 10-50 dungeons (or raids) are what normal PVE players crave and love in video games. Make these dungeons challenging (yet due-able, i mean come on that worm is just stupid).
-MORE AREAS! Come on we are all thinking it! At least give us assurance their will be some new areas such as Cantha and Elonia so as to give us excitement for game progression. These require a lot of work and I know this would take a while to do but this will make story lines less flat and more adventurous. Also would bring in new revenue due to people buying the expansion, buying gems for new styles of cloths to match new surroundings, and new items to farm/buy with gems/interchange in gem to gold market.
WVW: -I can’t much complain about this, it is well structured and they put a lot of time and effort into this aspect of the game. I believe this is a new and exciting factor of the game that is keeping people playing.
PVP:- This is the most disappointing aspect of the game for me. As a huge PvP’er I was extremely disappointed by their structured PvP. Guild Wars (1) had extremely neat and effective PvP with a huge variety! RA (Random Arena), TA (Team Arena), HA (Hero’s Ascent) are all great PvP that don’t require much programming yet are extremely effective. Lastly, GVG!!!! GvG is what makes GW, GW! I know many people who have quit GW2 because they lack GvG (and other pvp). GvG is where you can show people my guild is great and is a great way to keep people attached to the game because it allows them to play competitively with their friends. Also a new style of playing Base vs Base is a huge thing many PvP’ers or gamers in general like.
-FA and JQ. These game mode brought PvE into PvP and made it very interesting because you can choose either to defend or be offensive on FA! JQ was interesting because people could use unorthodox builds (such as bomb necros (suicide necros) and capture shrines) or build for many different tasks (such as defensive, assassin, tank, nuke,aoe, etc.)
-In general, the structured PvP is EXTREMELY flat with only one game mode to play and many people do not like domination (As you can see AB/Alliance Battles in GW (1) died out because people grew old of domination type PvP).

TLDR: Although I have been a faithful GW fan for a long time and even recruited friends to play, I am having a hard time even recommending this to friends and even keep playing due to high potential, very little to none progression.
Reply with what you thing GW should to do progress their game to the next level above other games. OR you can tell me what your opinion on my opinions are. Thanks.

I was playing PvP today (12/12/13) and I kept downing people, BUT they kept randomly getting themselves up right when they were going down. It was a 1v1 and no teamates were near nor died, they were revived because they just poped themselves up with about 25% downed hp, and they werent a warrior (engineerx3,rangerx2). Anyone care to explain why they go into downed position, are downed, and then randomly get back up?
