Guild Wars 2

Pirlipat.2479:

I am no software architect, but I would love if we could feed the system with a set of priorities, something like a checklist to make the sorting more individual

language
RP/non RP
organised Bossevents
Serverpriority
Guildcontent
less populated maps
leveling

I guess that’s not going to happen but one can dream.

I guess it is possible since it’s currently prioritizes guildmates (somewhat), party members and other stuff like that. It’s a matter of tweaking and fine-tuning.

…

There are (obviously) issues with Megaserver. They are (obviously, I thought) in the process of fixing those issues. What more needs to be said?

Very well said. People expect immediate changes to something that came out just a week ago, something that needs data and observing before going all crazy and reverting/changing everything. It’s a longterm plan, didn’t you guys read the blogs they published before the patch?

Personally, I think this all megaserver thing turned out really well, I expected them to roll it out on much slower pace. And there’s not that many issues with it, AND they are working on fixing those.

People thinking megaservers were implemented to save money need to take off their tinfoil hats and stop being ridiculous.

German community manager already answered many of the concerns, they do acknowledge the issues and are working on fixing it.

But I didn’t notice that many personally. It puts me in the same megaserver with my party members unless the map is hardcapped of course, guildies should probably have a higher priority for matching together, had a bit of spread on that one.

Kurr, so much for the constructive feedback. Knew you were a troll who will try to insult in the end, I was right.

On topic: megaservers will actually allow more people to try out events like teq and wurm when they move/change the schedule, more than ever before. Teq could be organized by 3~ commanders and it will succeed, saw it today and it was awesome. Wurm on the other hand will take way more organization and I don’t think it will be possible for random people.

Well, you probably don’t meet min requirements for the game or need to turn down your settings. What do you expect playing on hardware that is outdated.

My computer is perfectly fine. By your logic, about 30-40% of players need to stop playing this game because they have hardware similar to me.

What my computer can’t handle is 100+ people in a small spot.

It’s also why I STAYED AWAY FROM BIG SERVERS ON PURPOSE.

You know, so I could play the game smoothly.

But ArenaNET apparently assumes everyone that plays their game has a megacomputer (GET IT? HA!) and good internet connection.

Let me just go ahead and drop 1500+ on a new computer so ArenaNET can implement their kittenty ideas.

PS : Megaservers would still suck even if I had a beastly computer.

5 fps is not “fine”, it definitely can’t handle the game it seems. Not ANets fault at all. They have minimum requirements for a reason and they can’t tune their game for minority of people with outdated hardware.

Well, you probably don’t meet min requirements for the game or need to turn down your settings. What do you expect playing on hardware that is outdated.

Loving megaservers so far! A bit of tweaking to let guildmates get to the same megaserver easier, move big world bosses schedule a bit and it will be perfect. Great job guys.

*EDIT : Can you imagine if we had mega servers for SAB? Have fun with 100 people in a tiny hub. Zephyr Sanctum? Have fun getting with the jumping achievements with dozens of people in every spot making you lag and blocking your view. Megaservers should ONLY be applied to open world areas (not cities) AND you should have the option to choose which one you go to.

Yeah, I can. That would be AMAZING. Imagine Zephyr Sanctum full of people, would be so much better. Just like cities right now, game is so much more alive.

Full zerker here (totally full, including jewelry) running ruby orbs at the moment. Should I swap to strength runes? How much crit damage and chance would I lose and how much would I gain?

Same question about sigils for Staff. Currently I run sigil of fire and some other useless sigil.

Thank you.

Just stop trolling please and stay on topic.

Treebeard The Swift.9620:

As someone pointed out in another thread – these new times are perfectly matched to china, the new market, new money. We’re the old market they frankly don’t care.

What does China have to do with it. They are on separate client with basicaly different game. Please don’t bring your crazy conspiracy theories into this discussion.

As a EU player I completely support this. Please, ANet, let more players enjoy this wonderful experience!

HELP. Berzerk ele. CAN’T beat her. Wasted tons of tickets and food and still nothing. Using loaf of omnomberry bread (vit+tough), anything else that can buff my survivability?

Yeah I’m trying to do Stitch and then Captain. I tried Stitch > Gunner, but then both melees get pistols and just rain me down.

I understand that’s the part of my problem, but I’d rather not spend my precious gold on equip I’m not planning to use outside of this challenge. Besides I’m pretty sure it’s doable in zerk.

Ok, if I give up, what set should I get to survive this? :<

So here’s the deal. I’m a full berserker staff ele and spent like 20 tickets trying to beat the crew. I’m pretty tired and angry after all this struggle (still, best event so far!) and asking for help and advice. If anone done this, please share your tactic and build.

Look for the “Torchbearer” icons on your map in Divinity’s Reach, they look the same as “herald” scrolls. There are total of 4 runs.

I don’t think it counted for meta for me. Still at 14/16 as yesterday. Any ideas?

So I wanted to try sPVP again (last time was in beta, I think) and found this http://en.gw2codex.com/build/21477-fiery-rain-staff-build-spvp-tpvp-wvw-pve-groupgrinding guide. Is this still viable? Anything I should change? I prefer staff so that’s the only “big” guide I found.

Dee Jay.2460:

Yeah, since they didn’t allow us to progress beyond a certain point I too am stuck with them. I’ll hold on to them for a week and then just delete them.

What do you mean they didn’t allow? Both investigation lines ended.

So I have 3 items left – a bag, a map and another map from first part of the investigation. No npc wanted them and I still got them. Can I safely destroy these items?

Labyrinth chests were abused and that’s where it came from.

I believe I was in first wave of players who completed the puzzle. Asura Ele. Had no issues with other players whatsoever, raced with some Charr guy and it was exciting.

Guys post locations. Where is the guy in caledon?

There is an entrance to the dungeon in LA near bank that is currently giving network error.

Eclipse.1807:

How can you let Act 2 come out when Act 1 is bugged and can’t be experienced. I refer to the minidungeon event, The Forsaken Halls, the boss is bugged and cannot be completed.

Because this is not related to acts in any way and not even halloween related? Also, you might be doing something wrong.

Not sure if this was mentioned, but “preview” is pretty broken. If you equip the helmet on Asura and then the armor after, then helmet changes texture completely breaking itself.

Another issue with preview is you can barely see weapons or sometimes can’t see them at all equipped on Asura character, such as Focus, Daggers or other small items. I suggest to change preview to battle stance instead.

All of this was before today’s patch though.

Is it possible? Is it viable? Will it be possible to actually play a support role and still do decent soloing pve?

I suppose I would need to get cleric* (or whatever its name) items with healing power and toughness? What about weapons and traits?
