Guild Wars 2

As ridiculous as it sounds, the launcher is trying to connect (in the background – looked using Little Snitch), so as long as the GW2 app is open/has the dot below it on the dock, give it 20 minutes+ and it’ll work.

Servers are screwed up at the moment, but it will work

Hey there, I’ve had this strange bug for quite a while and wondered if there was a work around/fix for it.

Whenever I use the TP/Gem Store, my screen goes really dark with a yellow tint to it. I assume this is a gamma issue, but I can only fix it by cmd+tabbing back to Finder then back to the game.

However, one thing I’ve noticed is that it doesn’t appear in screenshots (meaning it’s not hardware/render level) which further confirms my gamma theory.

I’m using a 2011 Macbook Air (i7/intel HD 3000) on OS X 10.8.5, if that makes any difference at all!

Cheers ;D

I’m in the “players should be able to do what they like” camp.

Say I can’t sleep at 2/3am, I used to be able to log on, go to Cursed Shore and beat on some undead with my Thief/Guardian and maybe get some T6/trash rares (as in mindless half-asleep camp farming), and it was amazing (as well as nice stress relief from my illnesses)

As that’s gone, and I don’t like the whole WP from world boss to world boss, I now spend the time sliding around Lion’s Arch as a dolyak, or getting my face kicked in trying to get my world completion in WvW (I’m on Gunnar’s Hold, we’re getting crushed this week, it’s demoralising; but that’s another issue!)

I know it feels like it falls on deaf ears, but I have hope that something will come! I still love the game as much as I did when I started, but sometimes I want to be a mindless killing machine.

Which brings me to a suggestion:

Two dungeons, solo and group, where you are scaled to 80 (from say level 20-25 up) and have to fight your way through loads of enemies (such as recreating epic battles through lore) and each wave/set of waves you beat, you get a reward, say a bag of level-scaled crafting mats (like the laurel crafting bags) or a rare, plus some (scaled) coin and exp, and if you die, it’s ‘the end’.

There could be silver-purchasable “boosters” such as damage reduction, power/health boosts, etc. Maybe after a set of waves (10-15) there’d be a ‘boss’ which dropped a chest, containing rates, a named exo (from a “guaranteed” loot table) and if 80, a slim precursor chance.

It wouldn’t be for everyone, sure, but it’d be a nice change of pace and a chance to hone combat skills. Something just sounds nice about kicking around 20-30 centaurs in a huge open field…
