ANet was originally very open about their development, but the vocal negative minority of the community crushed that and forced ANet to be more selective with what they release to the public.

Dev Player communication is a two way street of respect, the community dropped the ball early on and now we have to deal with the consequences of that.

They also have to be quiet for legal reasons too. They can’t promise something until it’s almost time for release.

As for Dev / Player communication, just thank God that we’re not in Japan .I’ve seen fans from Japan have meltdowns when a game is not living up to expectation. What we’re seeing on this forum isn’t all that bad. The community here is alot more tame.

In the US, everything from fast food to medical has its share of complainers. I’ve experienced alot of this and worse in my working life. If everyone quit because of a complaint, the US wouldn’t be operating right now.

Here’s the positive way to look at this game’s situation: If people really hated this game, they would of left by now.

It’s true. I did. I left and came back assuming SAB would return for back to school as it did previously. Check forum posts and developments. Still poopy. Joined OccupySAB movement.. Constructive day so far. Your words are invalid.

To my understanding, the tengu were meant to be a playable race at the start of the game; however, due to time concerns and other factors, it did not make the cut.

“Prior to release, the tengu were a strong candidate for one of the playable races, with the Dominion of Winds as their starter city.²”

In my opinion, it most likely will be a playable race; however, I think it will be available only after anet has exhausted every other effort in their idea books. Sort of a last resort trump card.

I didn’t check the Wiki on that one. Thanks for that (it didn’t occur to me), but I surely hope a “trump card” isn’t their end goal. I really looked forward to the Tengu being part of their “Season 2”. I figured it’d be the opener… Instead… More stuff I don’t care for and has nothing to do with the key features a “Guild Wars” game needs.

I actually care about the Tengu. Considering this new set of “material” is trash (haven’t done dragon yet) and this Zone has been here forever. Let it be known that I don’t care for Cantha.

SAB is the greatest thing ever created in GW2 and we want it back!

This zone is like dead center of the map.. Are we ever going to see anything out of the Tengu? Played race, perhaps?

Being terrible at jumping and memorization is not a reason to hate something. I personally have both sets of achievements and I’d gladly do them again. Over and over until I had all the skins. Seeing as Guild Wars 2’s only actual content is jumping puzzles. SAB really needs to be a permanent piece of content. It came back around when school went back in the last time, so here’s hop(e)ing that World 3 comes with it. Just made the post so that maybe I can get some clarification from the dev team.

The title really says it all. In all seriousness, at this moment, SAB was the best thing to happen to Guild Wars 2. I’m only planning to come back when it does. I play once in awhile to get some story done, but for the most part… Meh.

We <3 SAB.

Yeah, I agree, they need to change the colors of the baubles on the sides of the backpacks to match the glow. I think they just forgot, honestly.

I’m actually okay with this! Lol.

To be fair on my TV (lol, don’t ask) the colors of the pack appear to meld together so I checked on my monitor, slightly less rage there (and after some tweaking less on my TV). Still. My point about them being very similar remains. Like.. It’s called the Storm Wizard.. It’s not even Storm like or even Wizard like.

So you didn’t have to defeat the storm wizard for that?

For the pack? Yes, you do. Otherwise you can’t complete the meta. :]

There you go. that’s why it’s called the storm wizard pack.

My mind is blown. No, but seriously. It needs a change.

First of all, my logic need not apply to you. Second, I feel the weapons and their color scheme have a use in the end (even if the yellow is meh). Third, dolphins. Seriously though, there is no difference between the packs and a color change just won’t do. They’re EXACTLY the same for two different worlds. It should at least have a storm cloud or something on the side of it instead of a “bauble”. It’s called the “Storm Wizard” for a reason. That’s my beef, really. On top of all that you still can’t use it in Super Adventure Box.

Ballistic.4531:

But they are not the same. One is green, the other is yellow.

They’re the same. Even the color doesn’t really show through, lol. I know there are a ton of people out there that agree, they just aren’t as vocal about it.

Today I completed the World 2 meta, and got the backpack from the achievement. (like before) Like before, it’s exactly the same. I have to ask.. Why? This greatly annoys me. It’s one thing to keep the weapons the same (because lets face it, they’re awesome) but why in the world are these two items be identical? At least the icon on the side of the pack should be a BOLT and not a BAUBLE. Actually, for that matter, why can’t I even see my backpack inside of the Super Adventure Box? I can’t even show this pack off in the one place it was designed for! Does that not disappoint anyone else?

The fact that the reward for beating the super adventure box (all achievements, etc) is a backpack and that I can’t even see the backpack when I’m inside of SAB leads me to believe this will never happen. At the very least, why can’t I use town clothes in SAB? Seriously…

I know, I used that one too. I noticed it was gone when I ran normal mode today. I was sad.

Pic 3. (Won’t post more) This is the waterfall right before the first jump up to where the turtle is between the start and the first checkpoint.

Pic 2. Just some more of the waterfall.

Upon falling off the waterfall (like a kitten ) I discovered that I was actually able to go behind the water fall. Thinking it was some sort of shortcut or secret I explored it… This is not a secret.. It allows you to get under the map. Made sure it wasn’t a fluke.

It happened to me too, I know how you feel, but afterwards I was able to clear World 2 Zone 3 Trib in under and hour!

You’re over thinking the situation. There’s a seriously simple answer and I’ll point you in the right direction. ->Try to "jump" on them.

Now that magic find has been changed I feel like it deserves an achievement. Probably every 50%? Maybe. More importantly when you cap out you should receive the title “Lucky”. Even “Master of Luck” is cool. It makes perfect sense and I have no idea why it’s not in the game! So here I am.

Countless deaths does not count as easy, and I did not find it that easy. The length and random/crash/boot fear just adds to the frustration of an already hard mode. While the “Infinite Coin” does help calm that (due to not having to worry about lives) anyone claiming that it’s “P2W” hasn’t beaten Tribulation mode, lmao. Especially the last boss. More importantly;

What Do ANET? <3

Why yes, I do like a little pain with my breakfast.

I got stuck there too last night, I didn’t get booted though. That Zone was like 3x longer than Z3 so I feel you there. I’m obviously going to go back at it because I don’t like to lose, but I really don’t want to be removed for no reason again. W3 is not very forgiving.

I was sitting in W2Z3 Tribulation mode at one of the very last checkpoints (specifically the one with the clouds at the end) AND THE GAME BOOTED ME FROM THE ZONE. What in the world ?!?!!?? I was in there for more than 2 and a half hours. That was insanely brutal, I really don’t even want to do it again. Why in the world would you allow that to happen? There wasn’t even a prompted response, I was just booted!

Happened to me in W2 as well, right next to the tower filled with the push signs and the building with the toads. You’re not alone. I tried digging over and over. I couldn’t get a bunny to appear. Just my luck :p.

I’m with you on that one or a /reset for SAB. I mean… I hate gettin’ stuck. Lol.

/stuck

15 characters

Well then, that really sucks. Doesn’t do anything for me.

Between the tower of “force push” walls and the room with the toads, I grabbed the barrel and got stuck between the shadow of the wall and the platform! I can’t even jump off the map to reset myself…. A little upset at this point.. I was doing the Assassin thing. Has this happened to anyone else or am I just full of it? I’m currently still stuck there. I really don’t want to exit.

Ahhh, okay. I didn’t know that. Thanks.

The title pretty much says it all, I included a picture. Does one of these achievements not count toward the meta?
