I admit, that may help slow them, but doesn’t each new account made come with yet another software key? Something tells me it wouldn’t make much of a dent or difference in the matter. And that’s if ANet can actually do something like that on their side. Given the limited capabilities on their end concerning character/account rollbacks and other issues, I have a feeling they don’t have the systems necessary to even begin to do something like this.

Well, consider me confused. How would banning the software key actually fix this issue? ANet’s not simply banning the character, they’re banning the entire account. Going one step further to also deactivate the software key wouldn’t… actually do anything!

That said, just so it’s clear, I’m not against making titles more visible — so long as it’s an option. Beyond that, though, titles do not need to confer any sort of benefit, none at all. They are fine as is.

Any sort of bonus, significant or otherwise, will be picked up as players as “required”. That, or they’ll complain that they’re not significant enough to bother, and they’ll ask for it to be adjusted again and again and again.

I’m sorry that you don’t like the title setup, but it’s simply another achievement. Titles just happen to show that you completed said achievement. And all achievements are, you guessed it, a “waste of time”.

That doesn’t explain the reward of achieving a title.

So your supporting the fact that grinding countless hours to achieve one title is just for show? That its only there to be visible? That it’s just some useless ‘cosmetic’?

Kind of pointless. And a waste of data space.

This is exactly how titles have been in previous MMOs and, in my opinion, how they should stay. Giving them any sort of stat bonus just makes them a requirement for PvP/PvE and creates a gulf between players. Just imagine being turned away from a dungeon group because you don’t have the appropriate title for the role you wish to play.

2hnd Hammer skins, not many good ones

in Suggestions

Posted by: Cinder.4865

Cinder.4865

War hammers in history (true 2h hammers) have oversized heads designed to simply crush a foe in a single blow.

Incorrect! See this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_hammer

I think, however, you might be referring to the maul. Even then, the maul’s head wasn’t really oversized, it was more akin to a sledgehammer head. Can you imagine actually swinging around an oversized hammer head? It’s not exactly feasible. If I’m wrong, I’d love to see proof to the contrary, though!

Edit: Oh, I suppose it’d be prudent of me to point out that I’m not against upping the size of any given hammer in the game. They do seem ridiculously small and, like many others, I do like the idea of swinging around something, especially as an Asura, that’s far too big for me.

Temporary game bans for forum misconduct

You might say that, but I read “I want free lease to insult people without fitting punishment!”
Because, frankly, who feels a temporary lack of forum access to be a proper punishment for unacceptable behavior? I don’t.

I’m sorry that you read it that way, as that’s not the intent at all. I don’t expect free lease to insult anyone. In fact, I haven’t insulted anyone, and I’ve still been infracted for an “off-topic” post (it wasn’t) and “cross-posting” (again, it wasn’t).

I’m also sorry that you don’t feel it is a fitting punishment. I do. If I act out on the forums, I will be banned. If that behaviour carries over to the game, I will be banned. The two should never cross.

Frankly, while choice is always a good thing, there are certain stories ANet wants to tell and certain ways they will want tasks done. At times when your RP is at odds with the event, you still have a choice — do the event and pretend it never happened or abstain from the event for the sake of your RP.

I know it’s not a popular stance, I have no issue with RPers, but your RP can’t take precedence and shape the game’s world and mechanics to suit you. It’s just not feasible.

I doubt this will ever be an option. ANet is, from what I gather, against the idea of factions, as it fractures a playerbase. Furthermore, a storyline that has you siding with the dragons doesn’t make sense in the world/stories they’re presenting to us — you are the hero, that’s the role ANet has chosen for us.

As neat as it would be to experience the story from the view of the Nightmare Court or the Inquest or whatever else, it’s not going to happen.

No. A suspension is just that — a suspension. Your suggestion would essentially turn a suspension into a ban, because I’m sure no one would ever bother if they were suspended, especially wrongly so.

Thankfully, ANet will never listen to suggestions like this one. No sane developer will, in fact.

A Stealth Counter

I believe the class mechanic of the thief, correct me if I’m wrong, is steal not stealth. The ability to gain an extra ability and teleport to your enemy.

2 and 3 are completely unnecessary and counter to your entire idea.

If you want players to use the other cities, you need to not only remove the cost for waypointing to them (specifically from other cities), but you need to add more to them than just the crafting tables. As is, your ideas would force people to, once again, sit in Lion’s Arch. Why? Because that’s the gate hub, and it’s far easier to sit there, move to the portals to craft momentarily, then return to either find a group or move to PvP since you’ve restricted entering PvP to… the one place that’s overcrowded.

tl;dr: No, your idea stands to be more detrimental than the current setup. You obviously want to see the other cities used, but you’ve not solved that with your proposed solutions.

A Stealth Counter

in Suggestions

Posted by: Cinder.4865

Cinder.4865

Every single competitive game I’ve ever played or seen has a counter to stealth. If Anet wants this game to be regarded (by me at least, but I expect many more) as an e-sport, they MUST add counters to stealth.

If they add counters to stealth itself, then they can make stealth last longer, and balance in other ways. It NEEDS a counter.

And do you know why those other games have counters to stealth? Because those particular stealths are either long-duration or permanent. GW2’s stealths are neither. That is a massive difference that you are failing to factor into the argument. The classes/characters of other competitive games rely so heavily on those stealths as to require a clumsy, half-hearted counter that is completely unnecessary to GW2.

So, no, no counters to stealth, as stealth doesn’t need to last longer. Balance can be found in other ways, it does not require a counter. I’d rather not see an arms race start over stealth and its counters.

If we’re going to ask for counters to stealth — which are completely unnecessary — we might as well, instead, ask for stealth to be removed from the game and have Thieves redesigned.

Stealth is fine as is, there’s no need for counters of any sort.

However, maybe you’d like to reconsider the title (I believe you meant to use “vulnerable”) and offer up a real suggestion to the proposed problem? In that case, we’ll see if anyone else has held off reporting.

Query on monthly Achievement award requirements

Cinder.4865

Because the daily is different from the monthly, and obviously ANet felt that WvW should be a part of the monthly.

If you feel like you’re missing out on the rewards from the monthly, I suggest asking a few friends or even a couple of guild members to come with you to help reach the goal. Again, though, you are at no disadvantage, nor are you being punished, for ignoring the achievement.

Cinder.4865

The monthly achievement is not required for you to do for any reason, it is not a necessity. It is to reward those players who dip into the varying things the game has to offer during that month.

If you have no interest in WvW, then don’t worry about the monthly achievement, just ignore it. The rewards are not such that you will be punished in any way for doing so.

Well, to be fair, attempting to catch ANet’s attention with titles/posts that read “ANET HEY OVER HERE” is actually against the forums’ Code of Conduct and risks having the thread closed.

I’d change the title, just for the sake of thread longevity. If the thread is closed and/or deleted, you’ll never have a chance of ANet seeing it.

I don’t know about selfless, but Guardian does fit in that they’d do anything to defend their own and their Krewe’s technology and advancements. Factor in a desire for Asura to see their own race advance to the top as the ruling race, and Guardian’s an even better fit — giving of themselves to protect and defend their race’s (perceived) right to the world.

It isn’t detrimental to the game, not at all. For some reason, though, class/race changes seem to have some sort of stigma here, and as unfortunate as it is, it’s a moot point with ANet’s decision being no.

Maybe, eventually, the thought will be revisited and minds changed for the better. All we can do is hope.

What, exactly, is the glitch? If it’s experience not being shared across the party, that is not a glitch. That is the party feature working as intended. If it’s the “test” mentioned earlier, in which a single hit is not garnering any exp when the mob is killed by someone else, that also has nothing to do with grouping, and is an entirely separate issue that needs further testing done.

So, please, could someone elaborate?

Edit: Also, changing the party mechanic to share exp equally across all party members would require a massive overhaul of the system already in place, not to mention the addition of a range mechanic. You would need all party members to be within so far of each other to avoid you being on opposite ends of the map, doing different DEs, and sharing the exp. It’s, quite simply, not worth ANet’s time and effort when the system in place is already working wonderfully.

Oh? So it’s ok for your friends who party with you to be way lower levels than your class because they choose not to implement a party exp share system. Well seems like you have no friends so i guess you wouldn’t understand the problem

’Cept that it was tested and it was not shared. Log in. Hit a mob once. Try it.

You are either not reading what I post or failing to understand me. I’m not sure which, and, at this point, I’m not sure I care, given that you are putting words in my mouth, insulting me, and attempting to make me look like a bad guy.

I am glad that you have performed inconclusive tests. I am glad that these tests have shown that the mechanic is either bugged or requires a certain percentage of damage to be done to garner what ANet believes to be a “significant”, rewardable portion of exp. I am also sorry that you have failed to comprehend this, despite my posting and quotation of exactly that.
