The only possible changes coming before the official HoT release are the personal story changes and LA changes. Both of those have been given a minimum boundary of 8 weeks, both could be bundled into HoT but from the write-ups they sound like separate things.

If it where just my machine then fine. Since each time I crashed out of Scarlet at least 5-10 others also did it, it could very well be a game side problem.
My system is 2 years old, i7 3770, 6 gig ram and GTX 680. If those specs are too low than fine, I guess I will need to avoid this content.

"Suggestion" GW2 Dueling updated

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Yargesh.4965

Yargesh.4965

I am and have always been in favor of a dueling option in this game. I have faith that it could be properly implemented. If there was an option, when left unticked, that made it impossible for someone else to duel you, then there would be no harrassment.

No amount of complaints about one’s inability to ignore another human being will ever convince me this game is better without an option to duel in all those great locales.

Direct quote from one of the vocal open world duel crowd below.

Yargesh.4965:

runeblade.7514:

Duel servers exist for me to grief there!

You admit griefing in closed PvP arenas but somehow you would not grief in open world PvE areas. Makes sense.

Who said I would not try to grief there? ANet should design it so I can’t.

Make a point please. This person would be easily ignorable. Don’t just quote some post from a random person and act like it will change my mind. I am the one being reasonable.

That is my point, you can find that person on this thread as well.

I have a full set of each weight and 2 are sitting in the bank because there is absolutely no point in wearing them with the way I play the game. It is a purely personal decision, if you play or plan on playing high level fractals, yes make as much as you can. If you do not have any plans to do fractals but want some anyway sure go for it. If you don’t want to do fractals and can’t be bothered with the item, don’t make them.

Yes. As we told you the last time you repeated ANet’s policy to “not tell us stuff until it’s done,” the community’s policy is to “demand that you tell us about stuff before it’s done.” For the zillionth time, please reiterate that point to the developers.

Why?
You are super duper special, great.
It is their policy.

Can't mail items to yourself?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Yargesh.4965

Yargesh.4965

People who have lots of money use the TP. There is no limit to what you can put in, just put at a price no one will pay. I am sure that there are people with tens of thousands of items that are stored this way.

Such a needless restriction. awe-well.

Both you and gemmethegepgun are right.

He’s right on the fact that you can just use your bank, and you are right that it just seems such an odd restriction to not mail yourself. I’m really curious as to why it is not allowed. But I wouldn’t expect a response from an Anet employee. At least not one that truly explains why.

The reason is that you could store items in mails to your alts, circumventing your bank limit, which can be increased by spending gems = money.

So it makes perfect sense.

A shill, also called a plant or a stooge, is a person who publicly helps a person or organization without disclosing that they have a close relationship with the person or organization.
“Shill” typically refers to someone who purposely gives onlookers the impression that they are an enthusiastic independent customer of a seller (or marketer of ideas) for whom they are secretly working. The person or group who hires the shill is using crowd psychology to encourage other onlookers or audience members to purchase the goods or services (or accept the ideas being marketed). Shills are often employed by professional marketing campaigns. “Plant” and “stooge” more commonly refer to any person who is secretly in league with another person or organization while pretending to be neutral or actually a part of the organization he is planted in.

now you know who is what.

Defamation—also called calumny, vilification, or traducement—is the communication of a false statement that harms the reputation of an individual, business, product, group, government, religion, or nation. Most jurisdictions allow legal action to deter various kinds of defamation and retaliate against groundless criticism. It is usually regarded as irrational unprovoked criticism which has little or no factual basis and can be compared to hate speech, which is can also be taken to encompass discrimination against a particular organisation, individual, nation, corporation or other political, social, cultural or commercial entity which has often but not always been entrenched in the practitioner by old prejudices and xenophobia.

What do players do after map completion?

Yargesh.4965

Events you can do at any time, hearts themselves are not really exciting for me. JP’s you still get a chest every time you do any of them. Meta events, running around with people you know, being able to wp anywhere on the map, there are lots of things to do. Sounds like you need goals, so I suggest you set a goal. It does not need to be a hugely time consuming one but something like get all ap or ascended backs or all ascended accessories or if you like the skin go for legendary (be prepared for a long wait and a lot of gold reuired).

Best race and profession for a beginner?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Yargesh.4965

Yargesh.4965

Race is mainly aesthetic so honestly it’s up to you on that one. There are a few racial skills that work quite well with some professions (Mesmer and the Asuran skill “Technobabble” come to mind) but otherwise just go with what ever you like.

Profession wise what sort of play style do you enjoy?

I like hanging back a bit, always battling but not necessarily up close all the time.

All have ranged ability though although guard is not great at range. Like I said try something since you have 5 slots, don’t like it by 20 or so try something else.

I don’t know. I think it’s pretty silly. It’s so silly it’s impossible to take seriously. I don’t think it means you should literally swear allegiance to Anet or Guild Wars 2. And when you’re doing satire, those sorts of things happen.

This feels a lot like satire to me. It’s not really meant to be taken seriously.

I also think pledging allegience to a country that you’re born to, just because you happen to be born to it, is a bit of a stretch. What if I’d been born in a third word country with no freedoms. They’d expect allegience too.

I don’t know. I don’t see what the big bruhaha is about. I found it mildly entertaining.

I personally think that swearing allegiance to anything is silly. That said you only need to read the newspapers anywhere in the world to see that there are people who take it deadly seriously. That is what I am talking about.

Bag/bank space should cost gold, not gems

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Yargesh.4965

Yargesh.4965

Sometimes I think ANet shouldn’t have put in the gold to gems option. It seems to make some people feel entitled to free stuff.

Are there even any non subscription based MMOs that give away free bank and inventory slots? If there are MMOs that give away free bank slots, I would bet the people are paying a monthly subscription fee. It’s the subscription fee that allows those MMOs to give away stuff. It’s not reasonable to expect a game without a subscription fee to have the same features. One way or another, they have to have income.

Oh I am sorry. I did not know wanting space to cost a static amount of gold meant free. Next time I will check with you on whether gold is a real currency in the game or not, before I post.

The reason why bank and extra bag is behind gem store.

Gold is so much easier to gain nowadays than launch, but cost for gold convert to gem (that means getting gem store item for free) is increased a lot as well. Therefore, the longer the game life, the more expensive gold to gem cost, on the other hand, it is so much easier to pay cash to buy gem than getting it for free.

If bag and bank space become fixed gold cost, the longer a player stays, the easier they get the item for free. This is the reason why Astral said people are asking for free stuff.

Well he is completely wrong. Also, how much gold can you gain now, compared to 1 year ago? It is probably less.

Might look up what completely wrong means. When I started one gold was a good amount for an hour (personally). Now ten gold is fairly common in an hour.

I would recommend 9 or less so you only get one spawn location at a time. I have done it with 4 as a group and it was fairly straightforward.
The people involved do not need to be guild members so you can call out in map chat if you do not think you have enough. The member of the guild who is in the party or squad leader needs to enter the instance first though, and a guild member needs to trigger the NPC inside to get everything going.
