This is the Kind of Update the Game Needs

in Fractured

Posted by: Stinson.5972

I’m aware that there are a sizable number of players upset about fractal level changes and a few other aspects of the update. Some of those contentions have merit but there are many other threads addressing them; the reason I’m making this thread is just to provide more general feedback that I think is important, because I think it’s clear the devs are listening.

Per the title, this is the kind of update the game needs. It aims to provide permanent, challenging, repeatable content for high level players and aims to refresh and update an area of the game that could use a new coat of paint.

It’s not temporary. It’s not fluff. It’s not something you do once and forget. It’s challenging group content that you can run every day if you want. No zerging, no black lion ticket hawking.

Whatever people think of the specifics of the changes being made – and those changes are debatable, I totally admit – I think it’s important to say that we asked for more permanent improvements and more non-zerging content, and that’s exactly what we’re getting.

P2W requires there to be competition (you can’t “win” at farming unless you can steal nodes). This is a pay for convenience item.

Yeah I think there should be statue in your home instance in remembrance of the person who was your mentor during the initiation of whatever order you joined.

I’d like to see him recognized for his heorism, but it is a pretty big spoiler even if it’s specific to one order. Maybe something could be added to your home instance after you complete that arc. Maybe something already is… I have to admit I don’t go in there often

Fractal levels above 30 to be reset?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Agree on pvp rank comparison, heck, reset everyone to 30 too see how the community likes the game then.

^ That.

same with legendaries I mean common they’re to much Money based atm When will ppl get that they are currently taking away somthing from me I have worked for in this game. So why should I get over it? it’s just unfair as a fact!

You do realize all that’s being taken away is a number obtained (through whatever means) in a Fractals system that will no longer exist, right? It’s no longer relevant to the new system.

I heard about these “guilds”. My understanding is that they have other players in them who are willing to help their members.

Fractal levels above 30 to be reset?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: VOLKON.1290

VOLKON.1290

Fractal Progression Changes: The difficulty curve in fractals levels 1-30 is being adjusted, and fractals beyond level 30 will have new, special challenges. Every fractal players enter with a fractal level above 30 will have a special Mistlock Instability which will add new difficulties to that level or change how it is played.


Basically, anyone with levels beyond 30 didn’t get them using the soon to be newly added challenges. Yes, a lot of people simply kicked the Fractal’s buttocks up to this point, but now the training wheels come off. Surely those currently above level 30 are good enough to handle these new challenges and outpace the rest of us right back up there again, yes?

You’re losing the “credit” for doing them above 30 because they’re changing above 30. The past no longer applies.

In previous MMOs there was a function to duel faction members and friends by simply typing /duel. It was fun, a great way to test your skill 1v1 and try new set ups easily. I know there is custom arenas, however the gear sets are so limited and honestly alot of ppl just cant be bothered to join spvp. I mean it cant be hard to just put this in the game. Anet, let’s go! Get friendly duels in the world please, i know myself and a ton of others would love this.

I think it would be great, except for one thing….

Tybalt is (was) a Personal Story Character. Spoiler Alert!:A new player who walks into a city and sees his statue, and reads the caption would be sad to realize that he dies before they ever get to that chapter. If they put one up, I would think the best place for it would be in the instance that everyone sees only after they finish the Personal Story, where you receive your Pact Weapon of choice as your reward.

Considering a large area of the Black Citadel is given over to statues of famous charr heroes I agree completely.

(Warning: Spoilers below If you haven’t done the Claw Island personal story mission you might want to stop reading here.)


Tybalt was Iron Legion and sacrificing himself to allow everyone to escape Claw Island so we could rally our forces, return and re-take it, which was the first step in fighting back againat Zhaitan and directly lead to the formation of the Pact is definitely equal to what the other heroes honoured there did. He should get a statue.

Deadliest Class WVW

in WvW

Posted by: Ragnar.4257

Ragnar.4257

If there was one class that was “deadliest” in all situations, everyone would be running it.

If we ignore all melee classes/builds, as you say you prefer ranged, then that at least narrows it down a bit.

For fighting in large zerg fights from range, you’re looking either at Ele or Necro.

For solo/small-scale fights at range, your best bets are mesmer, engineer or pistol-thief.

It’s very difficult to build yourself for maximum effectiveness in all situations. You need to pick an area to focus on. If you prefer roaming, create a roaming build and accept you can’t do much in zergs. Or if you prefer zerging, create a zerg build and accept you’ll probably have alot of trouble solo. If you try and build for both, you’ll end up being sub-par at both.

See every one thought I was crazy when I made my post of the poor cant compete.

If you can afford a gaming computer, a copy of gw2, and a monthly internet bill, you are not poor. People seem to think “being poor”means not being able to afford luxury items. PC gaming is a luxury, buying gems with cash is a luxury… Being poor means not having the money to buy the basic human survival necessities like food.

I am sure I get another infraction but what ever at this point. Basically in a nut shell its working as intended. This is the major reason I hate free2play which should really be called Free 2 Pay. Its true you can convert Gold to Gem’s and buy transmutation stones but as the OP pointed out there going up in price steadily. Which forces more and more people to use real money to buy gems. This system is by design they want people paying more and more in game gold for item’s so they will be more likely to just whip out the credit card.

This would be true except there is nothing in the boutique that you need. No content is being blocked from you. No gear is being kept from you. No skills or traits are being kept from you. You are being hindered in no way at all. You are not being forced or pressured to use the boutique at all.
The boutique is for people who want luxuries, pretty and shiny things. And who cares? The game needs to be supported and through luxury items is the best way to do it. Its a free MMO that some people support via boutique, which in turn affects you in no way whatsoever, since all they’re buying is fluff.
This is like complaining you can’t go to work because you can’t afford a Porche to drive there in.

Compared to actual F2P games, the gem store here is relatively innocuous. I’m not even sure how you can compare this to other free to play games. Games that lock out content, professions, races, or allow you to buy traits, skills or better weapons. So many games are truly pay to win.

You can play Guild Wars 2 without ever buying or needed a transmutation crystal.

If cosmetic items aren’t fair game for the cash shop, I don’t know what is.

congrats buy/bribe gate.

Thank you! &Sorry about 2nd place… For the 4th time in a row :/

Hope you guys pick things up next week!

Of course they will pick it up next week.

They don’t have any competition in the next match-up.

Just saying, what if TC beat them? o.O

At this point, I wouldn’t be too surprised if that happens. The SoR we knew 3-4 weeks ago is not the SoR we know today…

But if SoR hasn’t completely given up like everyone says they have, they’ll be able to beat JQ in Week 6

LOL unlike the OP, I actually looking forward to a sub based MMO. Why? you may asked. It is because like a lot of people I am sick of all the so called free to play MMO. I always end up spending more money than I am on a sub based MMO. Also I am sick of the RNG and P2W rubbish.

As far as GW2 goes, it is fairly good value for money. Sadly, maybe because it has no sub, Anet don’t seem to be able to afford to make an expansion like a sub based MMO lile WoW which has just announce yet another expansion. Something that no doubt will help them to bring back a lot of old players and new alike.

As far as B2P, I think only Ever Quest Next is following that model. Every other new MMOs are either sub or f2p.

I’d rather pay monthly for a really good game aswell.

I’ll say this… after GW2, it had better be one hell of a game to come out to convince me to cough up a subscription. I’m going to want a static-quest hub free world, amazing combat, continual content updates, back rubs, free sandwiches coming out of my computer, you name it. I don’t see how anyone now can compete with ArenaNet for quality and quantity to such a greater degree that a subscription could be considered warranted.

Before I got GW2, I I came from a ‘free to play’ game. Free to play yes….but pay to win.

Buying this game was worth every single penny. I’ve never played a sub game, but I could never go back to another cashshop mmo. I’m spoiled by the balance in this game.

I can happily choose how much I want to pay for GW2, when I feel like it. No required subscription, and no gameplay mechanic that enforces the need for cashshop? Yes please.
