Ive been wondering why there are so many corpses laying around our occupied structures in WvW that have not rezed yet…it never clicked to me they are scouting.
Yes Anet, please make it so screen goes black, or they get a fog of war, or they automatically respawn in 1 min.
I liked Jonathon’s post. While it did not mentioned things I personally would of liked to have heard (GvG and different PVP modes) it was good. I liked his choice of words, I chuckled a few times. People need to relax, these guys are laid back gamers but at the same time passionate about their game.
Its a new game, things take time….yes I gripe and moan to about things as well but at lest they are reading, listening and taking notes.
They cant magically design and make all new additions in a span of a month. They gotta squish bugs first with the content we already have…and balance stuff.
I still hope however to see lots of PVP additions in the near future.
No news on different game types?(we need more then point capture..)
No news on GvG?
….sigh….
Even the camera and storage is better n GW1…oh yeh and Real PVP not Zerg V Zerg…ok now to say nice things…GW2 is still fun…just needs a kitten ton of work…should have stayed in beta till the end of the year at the very least.
Globs of ectoplasm for example. Cant deposit those into a collectables tab in the bank? Why not?
There are also many many other crafting materials that cant be deposited. Its like you guys didnt finish all the tabs for the collectables in the bank?
GW1 let us deposit every crafting material into a special tab made for that material including ectoplasm.
Should they make HoM rewards available in Black lion trading company?

You want those items? Then go play GW1 and earn them.
The game is still up and running for that reason alone imo.
They are to busy patching their personal copies of WoW to the Panda expansion so they can play that tonight at home…Anet Devs have lives to!!
Im joking btw guys…I really mean that in a lighthearted non troll kinda way.
If no patch tonight Im sure they are working on a mega patch for next week as I heard a rumor (yes a rumor) about Oct 1 being a big patch.
This was a GW1 warrior skill. Its not going anywhere.
Waypoints are a convenience and SHOULD NOT cost money either.
I don’t know why they changed it from GW1…they didn’t cost anything in GW1.
I hope the Blog they are “working” on has some kitten kitten good announcements. Sadly many people are going to be drawn into trying out another certain game expansion coming out tomorrow. Hope Anet can counter that with a decent update.
nah…3 identical maps and 1 middle map thats different = win….
still have no idea why they copy and pasted the borderlands maps… could have been creative in creating things a bit more varied
GW2 = Screw all good ideas and things that worked in GW1 PVP
GW2 = Lets focus on PVE and Zerg V Zerg which gets boring after a few days (WvW) and forget about the real PVP.
I am disappointed. I loved GW1.
I bet sites like arenajunkies are regretting their decision to support GW2 now for sPVP…There blog post about them saying GW2 holds promise lol…that may be changing in a few weeks.

They had the right camera behavior in gw 1 seen here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZfRBp5LX2Ss&feature=plcp
now look at it in gw2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWnk6CEniYw&feature=plcp
I to liked the GW1 Camera Behavior, especially the first person view we were able to have. Which would be nice to have for jumping puzzles.
GW2 = Taking everything done right or good about GW1 and throwing it out the window.
I agree….add a complete autoloot to WvWvW….I get to busy just trying to live in a battle to remember loot…even if it does appear at my feet.
Just take a break and give GW2 about a year.
I didnt rush either I am at 98% world completion if it wasnt for that weird bug or issue that there is.
This time next year we can see where its at. They need t do a lot to it, add better sPVP and fix bugs etc.
Ill return near end of 2013 ….unless something happens sooner.
I am a mega fan boy by the way…guess Im just disappointed.
kitten yeh!! I want dyable underwear!! Also different underwear styles while we are at it….Asura have awesome boxers…Norn and human have freakin skin tight boxers…I want Comfy boxers on my Norn….not “constricting” boxers!! Why go into battle all “tight”….“sweating” and uncomfortable?
oh and edible undies as well….for erm…a food buff!! yeh!! a food buff!
And I want kitten kitten kitten kittenkitten cats on my boxers…
cwhatididthar?
Don’t say anything to negative in the forums (even if its legitimate and not trolling)….or itskittenkittentime from most the community…
Camera bounces in and out in and out in and out in and out in and out…../throw up
Great post… honestly I may wait another year and then see how it is after a few updates and expansions….So maybe Aug 2013 lol Ill try again….
Still none the less….I played GW1 almost since launch….I loved it.
THis game is good but has so much potential that I feel this game will be lost into obscurity like so many other “game changing” MMO’s before it… or…it dont have to….IF the Devs can do something, make changes, fix stuff they may have a chance. Like I said though…time will tell.
From GW1 to this I am saddened, The PVE is better then 1 of course but that is all they focused on…WvWvW is a Zerg fest regardless of how you look at it, It can be an organized or dis organized zerg fest… cant argue that…or it is a boring run with a group of friends through an empty borderlands (red green or blue word) taking post from NPC’s….
My biggest dissapointment in this game is sPVP…this part of the game got a giant kitten shoved into it from the Devs aspect…or thats how it looks to me…. Its all the same…capture points.
The lobby is a joke with that terrible browser list, payed tournies get pointless after a while and so on….these is no structered GvG (ppl say WvWvW is for guilds…no its not once again a zerg fest) like in GW1, no arena style events, no capture flags or any other mode…its sad.
That is my reasoning and opnion, Im still a Mega fan boy…but a dissapointed one.
Yes Yes I know..game is new. Thats why I will give it a year or so to see how it is by this time 2013.

Then someone who only does WvW could come along and say that doing PVE side of map completion is unfair. It’s fine anyway, it rewards people who actually enjoy all the aspects of the game.
OR make WvWvW fall under a PVP world completion and PVE fall under its world completion
:)
I have nothing against WvWvW honestly…I know GW is about PVP after playing GW for 5 years… Maybe they should move the POI’s in WvWvW to just outside the fort? Or make it where you can activate the POI’s if you get near the gate.
World completion still is fine or whatever…I was just thinking WvWvW would fall under some sort of PVP completion while the PVE map falls under normal completion
I dont like the fact you have to be in the same area to enjoy banners dropped by the guild…I never get any bonuses when my gui;d uses their banners.
Anyone else here on a not so stellar server (as far as WvW is concerned) notice that it is a horrible pain to get the WvWvW part of World Completion? Its very rare that stonemist is open or all POI locations in forts are available to get…
I am going to be stuck on the WvWvW part forever lol…which is not cool.
I really feel they should remove WvWvW from world completion as imo WvWvW has nothing to do with the main game world anyways. Also this is kind of forcing many non pvp people (those who do PVE only) into a pvp environment that they dont enjoy or may feel uncomfortable with..
Or at least give it its own completion achievement under the PVP category….
the rebound effect almost makes me sick….you hit an angle and it bounces in and out in and out and so on and so on.
not fun either for tight corridors when fighting or trying to make a jump.
objects should go transparent that are in the way and the camera should pan out…not bounce in and out when in a tight spot.
Also a first person view would be nice
yes this is a big issue, people may buy the wrong item for Kharma, Badges etc and realize its not waht they need but they are screwed…There should at least be a 2 hour grace period for items bought…
2 hour grace period (which only counts time logged in…NOT offline time)
Also cant equip the item will be fine
Kinda like dare I say…WoW…dont flame me
You guys could complain about this or remember that this was going to be a paid service from the start costing close to 25 bucks a transfer with a cooldown………
This time I am grateful for what they have done and Id rather have 24 hours then have to pay (yet)
Plus 1 yay!!!….I can imagine what you would catch if you were fishing in Orr….>.>
As the title sais. there are many places especially narrow corridors where the camera just gets so messed up that it bounces in and out rapidly or all I see is the ground.
This makes it painful for jumping, especially navigating jump puzzles, vista locations or just fighting enemies in a closed in space.
Shouldn’t the camera always stay the same distance (without bouncing in and out) and make things in the way transparent? or something???
Its so bad…I groan when I see a small space or a jump area… I try ever possible angle to and many times its just blind jumping hoping I land on that edge.
So when viewing the whole map I click on the button to show underground yet nothing really changes.
Shouldn’t the map show underground locations like caverns (Skritt city for example) and underwater areas that you have explored?…without having to be in that exact underground area?
Thats the one really annoying thing especially for finding locations is that you cant really track any areas that are not ground level.
I hope this makes sense.
Think the Devs could fix this or make it that way?
They has taken a game that could have had a grat E-Sport future and could have built on what GW1 already had and instead they focused almost every effort on PVE and Zerg V Zerg (aka WvWVW)
sPVP has gotten the big green kitten shoved brutally into it.
Still bugged on every US server and I also switched through about 10 EU servers.
Why the kitten did this patch fix not make it into the last update? I mean seriously?!?!?! Its only one of the largest most looked at threads on the Bug Forum….!!!
still bugged…nothing appears therekitten/p>
sanctum of rall
funny how the most posted on and viewed bug report did not make the patch…..
(edited by Angelus.1042)
Uh, hate to burst your bubble but most mmos lately are heavily cpu bound (and you normally need over 3ghz to get anywhere near full performance on those types). And I see ffxiv in there which is just laughable because that is the most terribly optimized mmo I have ever played, and I’ve been playing it since release. Also, guild wars runs 1000x more smoothly than I could ever get that game to run. If the game isn’t running SLI right atm for you the best thing to do is run a single until they fix it, so what if you paid for it, it’s not like it’s the only game in the world that you’ll be using it on. I’d say sucking it up and sticking to a single until everything’s been tweaked will get you much better results than whining on a forum if you’re “scared to break your hardware”.
I am more worried about concerns and other post that would pop up from people saying they broke hardwre from trying to overclock their systems.
My system is overclocked. I run a 3930K at 5.0 GHz and have a gtx590. I have a 690 on the way and another friend with the same system as me with a 690 sais he gets no performance increase either
My system is a beast.
Yet….
I still have major performance issues wit h this game alone.
I run rift which is just as graphically intensive as GW2 and its silky smooth constantly. I am more annoyed primarily because I feel they rushed things and could have waitied a bit longer to actually work with Nvidia.
(edited by Angelus.1042)
Why is it still heavily CPU-bound?
I wonder the same thing…ANet said the Betas were CPU bound and many of us were hoping it would be GPU optimized by launch….guess we were all wong… ANet trying to launch this game early and beat the WoW Panada launch and we get a game that could have easily used a few more betas and waitied for a november or december release. Ive waited for many years already I could have waited a few more months.

Tell me again why it’s an excuse?
I fail at quoting….
I said its an excuse because a while back Nvidia and Anet were touting SLI support and awesome performance with Nvidia technology….It is still even stated if you search for Guild Wars 2 on the geforce site…
Now they are coming up with these excuses and some pretty bad ways to get around it which will cause people desprate for some better performance to end up trashing their system.
Made another post about SLI else where….ignore the other thread I made…I found the support for SLI but Nvidia had a reason why it wont work well…this worries me
Wanted to make this post to show the link and Nvidias excuse on GW2 terrible performance. Why did Anet make the game like this? With all the other MMO’s that make great use of video I really hope Anet fixes this terrible engine.
http://www.geforce.com/whats-new/articles/nvidia-geforce-306-23-whql-drivers-released/
copied and pasted the list of supported games…read the GW2 SLI excuse
Alan Wake’s American Nightmare
Borderlands 2
Darksiders 2
End of Nations
F1 2011
F1 2012
Final Fantasy XIV
Guild Wars 2 (Guild Wars 2 is heavily CPU-bound, which may result in negative scaling on some systems. If this occurs please disable SLI usage in Guild Wars 2 via the NVIDIA Control Panel game profile. Advanced users may wish to consider CPU overclocking to help alleviate the issue, though this is undertaken at their own risk.)
Nexuiz
Orcs Must Die! 2
PlanetSide 2
Saints Row: The Third
Shogun 2: Total War
Sleeping Dogs
Spec Ops: The Line
The Secret World
Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Future Soldier
Torchlight II
Tornado Force
Tribes: Ascend
World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria
So if I want good performance I should RISK overclocking my system or disabling my Duel GPU setup that I paid for?
They are saying we should risk damaging our hardware to play a game that has poor performance.
(by the way I do overclock but this is a question many others are gonna ask)
(edited by Angelus.1042)
Oh and hee is the geforce link
http://www.geforce.com/whats-new/articles/nvidia-geforce-306-23-whql-drivers-released/
Many new games some not even out yet have support already..
Yeh but still many games that have not been out long have stated the intention for SLI and so on and now have it…after many months of Betas and beating around the Bush ANet still has said nothing..
Not counting the lack of DX11 as well which just about every other modern game has standard.
Also many of these games have 64 bit clients as well.
ANet is behind on the “Modern” part of their game.
Im blind….nevermind delete post
It sais September 13th?
Am I missing another thread with the updated ones?
As the title said.
The current one is 6 days old that Mike posted.
A lot has happened in those 6 days lol.
Ive read in many forums especially a GW2 Guru forum that there were the Nvidia 306.xx series drivers that were made and optimized for GW2. I tried them and noticed some better performance.
However, I am still under the impression the game does not officially support SLI (Duel GPU) setups.
Now Ive tried the game on my GTX 590 with the SLI HUD turned on from the Nvidia Control Panel and it shows the SLI is working and i looked it up and people say it may or may not work but its not officially supported and Nvidia has no SLI profiles for it yet.
However I keep reading on so many tech sites and even Nvidia said in a blog that doing it for this game is not easy.
Ive been keeping a close eye on all the driver updates and still NEVER see SLI profiles for Guild Wars 2 added…even though other new MMO’s like Secret World (heck that game even supports TXAA and DX11 I beleive) and other games have already got them (its in the SLI update list) however GW2 is not listed.
Hell, even WoW mist of Pandaria has been added.
Is this game ever going to be officially supported or does GW2 just have that crappy of an engine that its a CPU hog.
Just curious.
yes agreed..I have had one chat window for guild chat and another for world and trade and so on.
Ive been harping on this issue for months as well since the Beta’s
Capture points is already getting boring.
they need more sPVP modes. like deathmatch, capture the flag , 2v2 etc etc
also the PVP browser is a joke
I want structured GvG since all World V world is is a Zerg Fest for guilds and others.
Kodan would be awesome to. Polar bears to panda bears lol.
Seriously though…Tengu and Kodan would make for some awesome playable races but I am more for Kodan just because they are so awesome and have the best voice acting Ive heard so far.
Very nice addon…Please implement this as an option Anet!
So I can still hold my breath and hope that New sPVP modes are coming?
yes yes I know the game is new but still I can hope..and pray
Preferably something more then just capture points?
GvG is coming? People say Zerg V Zerg (aka WvWvW) is for guilds but many of us prefer a structured GvG environment like in GW1.
A better PVP lobby not some silly little list of servers….
I hope that GW2 will live up to the PVP part of things as I feel the game has taken a backseat with PVP in comparison to GW1.
Ideas for more sPVP modes. Also GvG inclusions. Spectator mode.

Agreed. I know the game is new, I just hope they are working on much more PVP content.
I really feel that PVP in GW2 has taken a backseat to PVE. GW1 was all about PVP but I guess in order to attract people Anet has focused on PVE in this game.
There is so much potential for PVP here and Im worried its going to fade away into another MMO that “could have been”
thats how it was in Guild Wars 1…You dont level past the max level but you get skill points. You can then use skill points for special items and what not.
