Guild Wars 2

Reanne.5462:

the starting areas don’t seem to be anything at all like the expansion area. I don’t even think the gameplay is the same.
Not sure how that’s going to help me understand. Oh well, it looked cool, maybe my six year old will have fun screwin around with it

It’s not about they seem to be anything. It’s about learning the game, it’s mechanics, your story, filling yellow hearts (which I still miss 3 years ago), learning races and their stories, vistas, puzzles, your skills, build choices etc etc. Oh God so much to do. You won’t regret.

Travelling somewhere is more fun than to be there.

Only 1 time we failed when it was xmas night while all people were drunk. It was the longest and the most frustraiting 2 hours of my life… xD

Djahlat.9610:

Only problem I’m always having is people running to the Stavemaster/Axemaster/Blademaster before killing the Thornheart during escort phases :P

On the contrary, some commanders tag those legendary bosses and rush on to them while elite stalkers tries to zerg the pact which you have to cover them. ^^
Oh my God and they say “I love killing them first”.
I go like arrggh

I wonder why people qq about hardness of HoT.

You are not in your homeland or in your neighbourhood.
You are in the Enemy’s Lands. In fact “You” are the enemy in there.
So ask yourself “what do you do when an enemy infiltrates your home?”.
For ex, I’d hit his head with a bat . KD him down then kick him in the nutts.

I like the mobs react more like humans, they evade, they heal, they get invisible. Not like Queensdale’s worms. They make me feel in a real battle.
In another way,
- What would you do when you get an enemy alone while you were roaming in a group of 5?
You KD, you chill, you fear etc…
Whatever people say, I like their CCs. I like the idea, they roam group of pacts. Makes me feel more realistic, not a human but gets closer.
I don’t like the idea “press 1, go drink your coffee, turn back and loot it”.

In HoT when I die, I know it was my fault. Because, I didn’t check my back or I get in “Leeeroy Jenkiins” mode. I stood up on a sniper’s way. So, it’s really an L2P issue.

I was thinking about to create a topic especially about Dragon’s Stand.
I’m worried too about it. Not now but like 6 months from now, when all maps gets empty and turns into a ghost town.

Don’t get me wrong, Dragon’s Stand is the best organization meta for me except Mordremoth dies too easily. I was expecting to kill him should be harder, especially if you think, you get there about 1 hour or so.

You need 3 organised squads that you can break in at same time.
If one fails, all fail idea one thing among other reasons I’m amazed like Tarir and Chak. It’s very well thought design as I said.

But what will happen 6 months from now when you create an alt or a new account wants to do it and you see most of the players got bored from doing same META over and over? And you won’t get another expansion then if you consider we got our hot content “HoT” after 3 years.

These argues had been made 3 years ago when the game came out and the reaction of ANET was “There won’t be any mounts.” Still they are behind that decision.
When I first played this game I was kinda disappointed non-existance of mounts or personal houses but I don’t care about it now ^^. Since we have battleships and choppers ^^ and gliders.
And mentionin gliders yea please ANET, we should glide in Tyria too. You know, there is air and high mountains to glide in there too xD

Maybe I wasn’t clear enough. I’m not suggesting new armor sets, I wonder why do the existing armors not have resistance.
It’s obvious that linen armor has more resistance than metal armors, so light armor guys can change their disadvantage into some kind of ranged advantages and again vise versa. A huge pyhsical defense heavy armors should have less resistance on those kind of damages like poison, fire etc.

I’m playing gw2 since it’s published. Just had a break for a while there were no exciting content. So I’m back since this September.
My thoughts on HoT are almost incredible. Developpers are shocked me in a good way. Very nice content. Not really easy like almost all other games are now. But it’s doable with coordinated players. I believe the MMORPG closed a little bit more to its meaning. METAs are awesome. I’m just disappointed Tangled Depths META got nerfed too much. Yes It was too hard but now it’s too easy to do ^^.
Anyways, here is what came up in my mind recently as the topic.
Why do the armors not have natural resistance for fire, ice, lightning, poison etc…?
i.e. Light armors should have higher fire resistance (ice, poison w/e) and vise versa.

ps: I had looked for it but couldn’t find, if it is already discussed.

Edit:grammar

dusanyu.4057:

“For the Panini!!”

for the longest time i thought the centaurs were hungry to die for a sandwich.

I was watching Nigeria-Argentina game which was boring so this almost was making me to pee my pants

Not even once but several time I get disconnections just right in the middle of boss fights.
Today at Jormag and after that Megadestroyer it happened again.
It’s really frustrating after doing preevents going dc and then of course logging back but sure I’m on an empty server trying to do preevents with a couple of people and mostly fail.
Is it about these taxis when they try to carry people on a full server then sure some random people get kicked off or what?

And do you know what is funny?
A year has passed over this subject and only one anet worker (programmer) had written a small answer TEN MONTHS AGO.
That’s how they give a kitten about our ideas.
825 (826 with this) comments, more than 64k views and what do we have is just walnuts.
And they have opened servers for China. I’m not against it but what’s next?
It’s over ANET. If you don’t give value to your customers’ ideas GW2 will lose, so will us.
Flaming over
That’s why we have forums right?

This game is most about skins right? So.. Anet, I want to be a happy engineer like in the picture.
Big fat WRENCH…
That’s an engineer how should look… with helmet of course
http://www.visualphotos.com/image/2x4794592/happy_man_with_huge_wrench

I’d like a wrench. Not a small one, a huge one, like a warhammer, big and fat one in the head…

Sylvari never looked as a necro :/ Maybe a sorcerer.

And here is my nasty girl. I saw this post after this one;

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/necromancer/Lets-see-your-Necromancers/page/21#post4064492

She is nasty ><

I couldn’t read all of the answer but this is my 2 cents:
I had left gw2 for a long time like you. Like 1 and a half or 2 years. Since 1-2 weeks i’m playing again and i can say; yea there are some changes nopt significant but i can say positive changes like the trait system or almost every map has its own boss and changed mechanics. More ascended gear can be gained by doing them. Slow but yea it’s fun.
You can say “Do you think is it enough?”. Sure it’s not i said i left game like 2 years when i turned back nothing has changed actually. What I missed is a couple amusements and entertainments. That’s all.
But:
Remember we(I) only paid like what 50$/60$. I really don’t remember but I think i had fun enough for that amount of money.

What the item in question says is:

Recovered from the Shiverpeaks, this dredge tool has unlimted charges and the same efficiency as an Orichalcum Mining Pick. Available for a limited time only.
Account Bound
Soulbound on Use

That is exactly what is says in the store, and I would say that it makes it quite clear that it will:
1: Work forever
2: Only buy ble for a limited time
3: Is accout bound
4: Will get Soulbound when equipped.

I really don’t see what is unclear.

Maybe you are right but still You are filling the blanks for your mind. It says “it’s available for a limited time”. Available for what?
I’m just saying it’s not a quite clear tooltip.
ie: gobling banker. It has unlimited use but also limited time use.
I hope i made my point.

Anet put really weird tooltips lately. On one side it says “account bound” and on the other side “soulbound on use”.
One side it says “unlimited use” and on the other side it says “limited time”…
ANET pls put clear tooltips.

I wonder if Molten Pickaxe’s usage or sale for “time limited” on BLTC pls?

Sorry mate but either you have so much “free” time or you take this “game” so seriously.
I wonder how it’s “free” money? I gather 20 ore/wood/etc, I craft 20 items (even cured leathers work for it), i kill 13 different mobs or 40 any kind of mobs, i do group events. And sometimes i use waypoints which are money sinks of this game. And the most important thing is I spend my time to do it.
I’m asking again; how it’s free please?
5 silver coins is less than or equal to only 2 heavy moldy bags or 3 events. I can say that daily achievements are less rewarded more than “free money”.
Or sorry but you just want to QQ about nothing.

Today (like the other days ), I joined the Shatterer event twice (like hundereds of ppl) from beginning to the end and I didn’t get any chests at both times.
Is it a bug, only for me or a known issue?
(And sorry for my poor English.)

Several GW2.exe files as you can see on jpg after closing program.

GW2.exe stands still on memory after exiting the game.
I experienced this problem twice after last update. Just wondering if anybody else having this issue.
I’ll put a screenshot if it happens again.

You wrote alot but you tell nothing. Sorry :/

Once i got this message because of i accidently ctrl+left clicked to map chat, instead of spliting items.
Probably some people reported me for spamming :/

Masher.8051:

They all stand in Lion’s Arch all day.

they are probably playing on trade post to gain their 100g back

Bluebird.1890:

Arenanet is not going to divulge to you the method by which they patch their game because you have an erroneously developed sense of self entitlement.

If you don’t like that they don’t spell out what maintenance means for each individual game file in painstaking detail, you always have the option of uninstalling the game to be more comfortable with what is happening on your machine.

Have a nice day!

Congratulaions. Really nice solution. I really couldn’t think that. ty

theerrantventure.9185:

Gehenna.3625:

Not an expert but maintenance also means cleaning up existing files or fixing minor issues that don’t really make it a patch. So I would think it’s stuff like that. When files get corrupted for example they replace them.

Ditto, or they’ve identified potential buggy code and have made adjustments. Or they’ve introduced new code that doesn’t change front end game play only back end processes.

Ok i get you. Then you say “we find a bug/code/script that blablabla…”
Every file you download and patch your pc from microsoft you can read the article what it is about. I know it’s an extraordinary example but all other companies i’ve played their games was more and more honest about what is going on.
Even SONY was much more open to their customers when they were hacked.
You have rights to know what a kitten files downloading and patching.
That’s what i’m saying.

I was not really sure about to write this topic but sorry i couldn’t make it.

As they say “no update has been made it was just maintenance”, what was those more than six hundred files updated?
I really do not understand being sealed especially to players who paid for the game.

This is not an insulting topic. I just really wonder why. I hope you guys will be so understanding too.

I’m sure you already know that you/we cannot see all WPs or POIs if you are not in that zone.
So, roam all maps one by one and take map screenshots, open gw2cartographers.com and investigate every map individually. Otherwise it’s impossible to say.

It’s “do you like steak or icecream” more than apples or oranges. Necro and Ranger classes are both fun to me but in different ways. So “which is better question” is very inapplicable.

I’m not really sure but those are for boosting killing xp not for dynamic events, exploring or tasks…

Edit: I’m sure now
http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Experience_Booster

I use Alt+1,…,Alt+5 for 6,7,…,0 keys.
Alt key is under my thumb so it is easy.
And I use middle mouse key(wheel) for “autorun”.
Like more than 20 years i use WASD so… I know you get me

Same here. I just defeated the hideous big eye after an annoying fight but /sigh… Sent a report.
I hope they fix with the next update.

Tharjax.9068:

I rarely see people grouped in this game, why is that? Do gamers this day in age just want to be left alone to do there own thing? I myself have a heck of a time finding people to play with.

Discuss.

Let’s look your question from the other side.
If people which you mentioned (we) were social, they would go to a bar or a friend or a movie to socialize with a “HUMANBEING” instead of playing an MMO game and roleplaying an unnatural character.
That’s just easy to see actually…

Jestunhi.7429:

Malediktus.9250:

I got a little bit more than 100g currently with just farming events and dungeons. Its possible. No trading or exploiting since I hate those kind of people.

You “hate” people who trade? o.O

I guess, he just wanted to emphasis the “exploiting” part but a little grammar problem. Just an honest mistake…

here are some REAL greatswords from history and i cannot see any kind alike “cricket bat” style hideous, large and stupid greatswords.

darkoracle.6483:

Tengu are an obvious choice, they look amazing and there could be an entire cloud city expansion, for a class I would like a monk, not a copy of the gw1 monk a brand new one. Could use fist weapons, staves etc. Some healing abilities etc like a mix between a guardian and a thief.

I like the monk idea too with knuckles or a couple of batons and some classy outfits, close combat fighter…

GW2 already is an insane fast leveling game unlike the others, so i really don’t understand what is your rush for?!

Addition:
Don’t write “LVL <number>, fully exotic <class> LFG <DungeonName>” on map chat.
It just sounds you are an eBay toon or you are showing off which is hilarious!

arcaneclarity.5283:

Bard was a plate wearing class in Everquest.

Not plate, it was chain armor which scout classes are worn.
Plate are for tank/berserker/paladin classes…

LotRO has Minstrel too…

You can expand shared bank and use every part for each toon which i do in that way…
TBH i understand your concern but this is cheaper way imho.

DarkWasp.7291:

1. Bots don’t rez you
2. People don’t rez you because they think you’re a bot

Sadly, yes…
+1

3. Sometimes i don’t rez ppl which they jump off cliffs and die stupidly, so i just take care my own business and go away…

I love the “look at the topic that ‘80 things that bla bla’”.
Please, I already do all things that counted on that list
but ppl still looking for more encounters/dungeons that designed for maxed toons.
Yes, maybe anet couldn’t predict that they would have this much PVE players but they do now. So i hope they care about us.

And what is funny you know? Every time someone says something like this, they get “go, play wow” reaction.
What is your problem? Your education system doesn’t teach you another sentence?

ahh southpark and sexual harrasment pandaa
I’m a saaad Pandaaa.

Anyways, i can say as long as anet devs care about bugs and balancing, this game will live sooo long than you have predicted mr panda

ANet devs can put a timer for “Take All” limit once you interact with TP guy. Timer can be like 2/3 days. In this period you can take whatever/whenever you want. At the end of the timer, items/money will disappear.
I know it looks like a bit crucial but can prevent abusive uses and can help you to take items on any toon.
Still, if you don’t interact with TP guy, items will stay there forever which means you don’t lose money/item.

Corax.1502:

I would also like to see this in the store.

Hair Styles/Color / Accesoir Color for in game money (not gems) at a Barber

Sex Change / Name change / Full character re-customization in gem store for 1600-2000gems.

Race change would also be possible:
If you did a race change your whole personal story would be reset.
The Map progression, your level, and non-race specifiek items will be saved.

I appriciate all the suggestion but race change…

First 2 are very beginning of the game…
And the last one is lately what she looks like.

Probably this topic will be deleted/locked but i’m totally aggree the summarized part that shown below especially the “playstyle” part.
I’m not a fan of “farming” idea but i know some people that really likes it so i hope they feel free in future :p

Hsinimod.5784:

I’m grateful ArenaNet says we shouldn’t need to grind. But I’m ungrateful they are choosing my playstyle for me, and not letting me have the option to do what I want to do.

I see what you’re saying but aren’t SOULBOUND items only bound to you when equipped? That means you can mail it to alts or to a friend…

It depends…some items are soulbond on acquire.

I don’t think there is an item exists on TP that soulbound on acquire.
Soulbound on acquire items are either bought with “Karma” or earned from “story quests”.

But the idea of a “Confirm” button is great.
You can misclick anytime anyway. Have I ever done? Nope

I know there isn’t….if you read the OP, he mentioned he bought items from a vendor, not TP….

I’m saying that there ARE items from vendors which are soulbound on acquire….

Sorry yep, you’re right.
I was totally concentrated on tp
