I have slain many a giant in Orr but my achievement says I have only killed 4 total. I would appreciate it, as I am sure others would, if this could be fixed promptly. Thank you for making achievements matter. I will be paying a lot more attention to them now.
I like the story telling idea, but don’t see it happening. I hope that I am wrong because I would love to see Tyria become more of a sandbox in all regards for the creative among us. It just seems to me Anet is not utilizing the valuable resource that is the players as well as they could. Keep the ideas coming I would love to hear more.
Valid point, but I didn’t mean a program “everyone” can use, just those who are creative enough to take the time to learn or may already be familiar with to some degree. I was trying to address the fact that there are some programs with much less of a learning curve than others, a lite version if you will. One that already exists. I wouldn’t expect them to design new software themselves. They could still have the option of accepting 2D art as well. It was more of a matter of trying to make it less work for Anet by making submissions that are easily converted. The less work required the more likely it will happen.

The fact that GW2 has no monthly fee is awesome for such a great game, but makes encouraging gem store purchases essential to the prosperity of Anet. Why not let the players help. Crowd sourcing is a great way to increase output without proportionately increasing workload. If there were a program made available to players that is user friendly enough for people without a degree to use that could produce 3d models that would require little effort to adapt to the ones used by the game along with a website for submissions weekly or monthly contest could achieve this. The models with the most votes could be then made available in the gem store and the creators rewarded with in game items, achievements ect.

If you want something to show off and to care for I would suggest encouraging Anet to revamp their minipet system and or create new minis that fulfill this desire for you, because it is a lot more likely than mounts.
First off players should be able to name their “pets” and should stay active until deactivated by the player. Have them interact with their owner and maybe even by standards. A toy could be provided in the gem store that allows you to play fetch and other things (unique to each pet). Here’s where they could become useful, give each one a minor buff like a weaker version of the ranger spirits or whatever boon you can come up with. They don’t have to be powerful just helpful and/or interesting. Be creative and make them relate to the different pets in some way. This system could even be implemented with an entirely new class of pet.
My Elementalist has Final Shield (Arcane Shield at 25% health) selected under Arcane and I have yet to see it activate and have been downed and died several times over the past weeks. Please fix this issue.
The vista at Triumph Plaza is missing the necessary fungi to jump to the top. I tried to figure it out and then watched a video of someone completing it and was very disappointed to find out that I couldn’t get to the top until bug is fixed. Hope it gets fixed soon.
My level 80 warrior usually runs around with two to three banner skills equipped and I would like to see an F1 ability added to the different ones for diversity and continuities sake. It is a weapon that is specific to the warrior and they should be able to wield it as their other weapons. Furthermore I really think that skill 5 should do damage if it does damage when summoned. Otherwise it should be replaced all together because weapon swapping is much faster in combat.

The delivery service I was looking at from a realism stand point. If these magic birds can deliver items to the trading post than I just thought the reverse should be true and like a listing fee a delivery fee would add to the realism. Really it is just stopping some of the waypoint surfing and the fee could be figured accordingly. The loading screen times to hop around just to pick up stuff is annoying to me. The delivery could be done item by item as Maiden England pointed out this is something that needs to be tweaked also.
I would really like to see this as well. I have been told by many friends that have been gamers much longer than myself that there are several ways to voice chat through a third party, but I think this is a missed opportunity to make a built in chat (for parties at least). For those who don’t have mics or who prefer to type there should be an option to have text converted to speech for party members in dungeon ect.
I use the TP all the time and really like it for the most part, but see major room for improvement. Here are my top 5 suggestions for making the TP experience better.
(Top 2 should go for merchants as well.)
1. Add a filter to allow the player to check a box which when checked hides all items not usable by their character. This means it factors in level and profession.
2. All weapons and armor should be previewable and not limited be profession.
3. Add a filter to the sell menu that gives the option to hide all of the items with no existing preorders.
4. Have the option to have items delivered to where ever the player is located in the world for a fee.
5. Don’t allow players to place orders that will never be filled. I like the fact that the TP prevents the loss of revenue by not allowing sales of less than that of the merchant prices. This should go for orders as well though. This would also help clean up some of the clutter.
I am one of those gamers who really enjoy creating new characters and have tried every race, gender and profession. Because of this I have deleted a lot of characters and added new ones. It is very frustrating that I can’t use the names of the deleted and have to find a new name every time. If a name is not currently in use it should be made available to the community. Now I that I have finally created the characters I wish to stick with (one of every prof) a couple of them have unfortunate names or at least ones I would love to be able to change. Please allow us to change names for a small fee or something. It really should be included in the makeover kit as previously stated.
I love the idea of learnable dance moves and emotes through achievements and trainers. Hope to see it in the near future.
