Guild Wars 2

This is a terrible idea, and it’s kind of sad that you don’t even realize how good you have it in this game. It took me about two weeks to hit 80. That’s a cakewalk. It took some people over a year of constant mob grinding to hit the level cap in classic Everquest. Even in competing modern MMOs, it’s pretty standard to take a few months to hit cap. Just grow some patience and enjoy the ride, because you’ll be doing the exact same things at 80 as you are now.

This would make the game pointless.

Joining via map doesn’t work about 80% of the time, hence my suggestion for improvement. Also, you can leave the squad via the party menu (p by default).

This is actually pretty intuitive, and should be incredibly easy to implement. When you tag up…give an option to select a color for the tag (ie, standard blue, red, dark blue, yellow, green, orange, brown, etc). This would greatly reduce commander clutter on the map for pugs, and make it easier to follow the right commander.

There should also be more options for who can see the commander tag. Sometimes my guild wants to run without pugs, but that means not tagging up and missing out on squad chat, which is invaluable since you won’t get suppressed there. To alleviate this problem, several options for displaying the commander tag should be made available:

- Public (everyone can see it)
- Guild (only your guild can see it)
- Squad (only your squad can see it; people have to be invited into the squad).

To make this change easier, there should also be changes into how players join a squad. It’s rather unintuitive as it is now (have to actually find the commander—often in the middle of a huge zerg—click them, then right click their name, then click Join Squad). This wouldn’t be a problem if joining their squad from the map actually worked…but it doesn’t. I don’t have a solution for this one, but you guys are smart. You’ll figure it out
