Guild Wars 2

ok now its happening whenever its slightly laggy…. every time, it refuses to load, and when i close it while its loading forever, the game freezes, i cant tab out and I’m forced to reboot my system – its a game breaking bug for me and id appreciate it if i had at least some response from anyone – is there a way i can stop this from happening?

there have been dragons on the loose for hundreds of years – the pact were created to do exactly that, why should an entire city go to ruin because one more dragon woke up, all we need to do is use fireworks – it worked on zhaitan

what happened to those supplies that we got from the zephyrites? where did they go? in fact, nevermind becoming the mayor, we need to make a guild/organisation that are there for relief, fixing up lions arch, cleaning up fallout from the tower of nightmares, helping scrub the lake, sending food to the villages affected. not only that, but sending troops to clear out orr and exterminate the undead, helping the zephyrites by giving them shelter/helping to rebuild their airships. the pact can get the glory for killing overgrown lizards, but we will get the continued support of the masses by being there for them once the pact move out and forget them

I kinda like it more that way. Colors and all. If they ever rebuild it, i hope they won’t just bring back old LA.

it wont be the old la, too many cliffs/buildings have been destroyed

if taxes are even being collected in lions arch anyways…. bridges still have massive holes in and the workers that DO have pickaxes are using them sideways. if i were in charge, the bridges and roads would be the first things I build along with reconnecting the asura gates (at least she got that right, and even then I’m sure it was the asura and not her doing), in fact, if you actually look, the only bridges built are the ones near the consortium

i would organise airships and teams of workers to cut up and removed the giant metal pieces in the bay and town, the bits i can melt down and reuse would be sold off to help the rebuilding efforts

after roads, the next thing i would do would be to deal with the buildings that are precariously tilted

once it was all cleared and rebuilding efforts underway, i would build anti- air cannons on towers/walls to be dotted around town, this is to prevent future events like this and also offer protection from airborne dragon minions

i would employ/recruit nearby adventurers to help – clearing debris, providing materials and even food for the survivors – i have no idea why she hasnt called us yet, adventurers would do anything for snazzy looking weapons and armour or titles….

its been 8 months and there has been no progress in rebuilding the city WHATSOEVER

(for reference, I am Zurt, an Asura guardian from the college synergetics – Zurt for mayor)

why dont you send them a physical letter about it in the post? sometimes they can do wonders

reaper’s rumble was my favourite halloween game in 2012, i was disappointed to find that it didnt return last year and, i know this is just a redux of 2013, but is there a reason it was taken out of halloween?

seems to only be in lions arch, but to me, it happens every time when im there

so these bad boys are currently 130g on the trading post, how does one actually get it?

tp for me is loading really slowly, every time i close it while it is still loading, it freezes the game, forcing me to reboot (cant tab out) i am plying on the mac client if that helps, ive only tried it in lions arch so far, will try moving to a less populated map

has anyone tried the ghostly spineguard yet? if its a back item, like people wnt, makes sense that a back item is needed o craft it.. IF its a back item

i really like the art work for the new halloweeny lions arch, will we get that as wallpaper? because all i see on the patch page is the old one from a previous year

my guess is you still need the meta achievement – try that

so we all know that ‘good’ sylvari add their memories to the dream, and ‘bad’ sylvari (nightmare court) add nightmares to the dream to try and corrupt it, what would the pirate sylvari do? add memories of adventure or nightmares of killing? – just ssomething i always wondered :P

black lion trading co seems to be crashing my game, i think it happens when i close the black lion tab whilst its loading, i am on a mac if that helps, happend in lions arch, frostsound gorge and divinities reach

im planning on switching to an eu server soon if i start doing wvw missions now, will i be ‘bound’ to my old server or will it be ok to switch?

i use it in late spring when i normally get hayfever

so with skins being added to a collection i was wondering if there were plans to add a collection tab for tonics, toys (broomstick/instrument/costume weapons) as well as the story journals we got during the living story, the zephyr sanctum model, the crafting materials for the living story vine back piece and the how to dance books I, along with other people I’m sure, also think that a booster or rune tab would be really useful

in no particular order of preference
1) scavenger hunt precursor weapons (no grinding involved (I’m looking at you foxfire clusters))
2)guild halls/player housing
3)guild wars (like we had in the original guild wars) (they should rename guild wars 2 to “chronicles of tyria” until they add in the namesake)

i thought wed get festivities, like the queens jubilee again, or sab… oh well back to the toils of every day tyrian adventuring

• Pokes Living story team.. wheres our free in-game Waffles?*

How come our chefs can’t make waffles? Do Tyrians not know how to make them?
Waffles totally need to become an ingame food (not sure what the buff should give though).

we cant have dry waffles, sure we have butter, but i want maple syrup and i dont see any maple trees >.<

i know the desert isnt exactly the most fish-habitable area, but we have cactus and still no fish? the only person able to cook fish is scipio in queensdale – we dont even need to catch them ourselves so coding fishing into the game isnt an issue, just have an npc sel them for karma/coin
then we could make different types of sushi using the riceballs, seaweed and soy sauce, fish steaks (have you tried tuna/swordfish steaks in real life? theyre awesome)

my point is, i woud have imagined fish to be available right from launch, what with so many fishing towns in the game youd think someone would have caught somethign by now

Purple Miku.7032:

FGS is the most powerful weapon in the game and I’d be devastated if I couldn’t use that again on my ele, and Signet of Rage is an amazingly powerful elite. Dunno what you’re on about.

op didnt say replace all elites – just allow us to equip utilities in the elite slot if we wanted

i didnt think of possible buy the whole pack post-release thing – so long as they do that i’t’ll be fine – i suppose we should wait and see how these missions pan out and how this new system works before complaining….. if we do the maths… around 52 weeks in a year, 4 weeks per holiday event? so there’s wintersday, halloween, dragonbash and possibly the zephyrites 4×4 = 16 which leaves us with 46? 46/2 (two week releases) means 23 releases (assuming living story takes place at once a year) 23×200 = 4600 gems which would be about the price of an expansion… wow

by the way – i didnt read most of the 5 pages of comments so this may have already been answered/said

with the whole paying 200 gems for a story step you missed, what happens to those who buy guild wars 2 after we killed an elder dragon (eg mordremoth) i thought that the best model to follow would have been the elder dragon arcs as permanent arcs that are unlocked post- zhaitan firework show
because all this talk of elder dragons, someone buys guild wars 2 late, and they only kill one and have to pay loads just to fight something that is the whole point of the guild wars 2 story….

imagine it if it happened to you “we just killed zhaitan! which one next? mordremo-” “sorry bub you need to pay to fight him”
“but i’m the commander, surely i need to be fighti-”
“nope pay up”
“but i dont have any money”
“then you cant fight him”
“but it will kill us all!!…[/sigh] – right you can kill him without me then”
“wait… we need you to-”
“I DONT HAVE ANY MONEY”

the desert rose is still available – Rare drop from the Southsun Survival activity.

i think only 10 master but slightly more regular (45? 50? shrug)

its not that i’m ragin over this, i would just prefer it if exclusive items were kept as exclusives rather than exclusive-but-may-or-may-not-return-in-future items

like i said – just an idea for the future living story seasons

the marionette fight successfully split everyone into equal teams,

here’s what i would do
(for future events?)
*each boss has a mini-arena in which thy are fought
*at the start of each boss blitz, (maybe have it on a timer say, every hour or so) a portal opens up in the centre of the arena (for say 10-20 seconds)
*players go through and are randomly sent to one of the 6 bosses, the party then fights the boss once the portal closes

-this way people who either dont want to take part or didnt get there in time, can observe the fight from the sides (as a gladitorial type match should be)
-perhaps if someone didnt get to the portal in time, they could still be of use as a member of the crowd, with ‘cheering’ abilities to support players with boons/temporary buffs – and ‘jeering’ abilities to help demorilise/hinder the boss – only in subtle ways though

then release them only in china…. pokemon seem to have the regional events thing sorted out…

previous things in the living story that i did really like were the 5 man dungeon in the frost/flame arc and the marionette fight

both of these were challenging AS WELL as fun and they both gave decent rewards for the difficulty level

the marionette also required organisation which was tough to figure out at first, but then we learned

imho, making fights that are fun, challenging and worthwhile are key to a release that people enjoy

the zephyrite minigames (crystal collection and dolyak race) are fun to do and yield rewards that are worth it (not too much, not too little)

anet, i know you can make amazing content because we’ve seen it before – i just think we’d like to see a lot more of it

its a nice idea, but look at it at another angle: parachutes would allow them into areas of the game where they shouldnt be (eg bottom of rata sum) – also some jumping puzzles would be made entirely pointless, so long as a mesmer was nearby

season 2 has to kick off somehow :P the conversations between tiny taimi and (keeping with alliteration) behemoth(?) braham are awesome

he’s like someone having to look after someone else’s kid while the parents are on holiday and having no clue what to do with it

If you’re really going to get mad over seeing someone wearing a skin you got a year beforehand, you should probably reexamine the game’s fundamentals.
it’s about teamwork. it’s about, as earlier stated, feeling the achievement. shoot, Legendaries were supposed to be the utmost symbol of prestige and awesomeness, yet you see them everywhere even more than the skins from the FotFW.
don’t get me wrong, the idea of, “you had to be there, sorry bud,” made Party Hats from RS so expensive and amazing when you actually saw one. but I cannot tell you how many people over my couple years of playing that game who were so annoyed that you couldn’t get a simple little crown to wear for fun.
it’s the same idea. I’ve wanted the Fervid Censer ever since I saw one, and upon learning that the activity to earn it was taken away a year before I began playing again I was pretty upset. same with the Horns of the Dragon. with the rerelease of this content, and the simple but lovely rewards, I now have an opportunity to earn all these items again, some I didn’t know existed.
instead, think of the little guy. not of your prestige. this game isn’t about selfishness.

horns of the dragon are from the dragon festival… which is set to come back near/on july 4th…
fervid censer, to me, should have been something that said ‘i was there that time’ – they’ll probably even release another flower skin in the future, what with the season 2 of living story incoming, there’ll be more ‘exclusive’ rewards that you will have that the next person comes along and complains that its not fair that they didnt buy the game a year early and decides its only in the interest of fairness that the ‘exclusive’ item be brought back so that they be allowed to wear it, despite not having to work towards the meta achievement because it looks pwetty

im not lifeless ether, i have uni exams to prapare for and such – there are weekends, and each event is available for two weeks – plenty of time since most get the meta in one or two days, more if only dailies are used but still achievable

I’m not about to spend my entire waking hours farming for that recipe, nor do i have a spare 2500 gold laying about to spend on it – i dont want anything changed right now blah blah blah – i was just requesting that for the future living story rewards, remain rewards/rewarding and not just bought goods or ‘doesnt matter if i dont get it now, it will be available in a few months time’

i dont have a problem with any holiday items being re-released, or any of the home nodes (even the sprocket one) but the following are are things from living story that should remain as exclusive rewards that were re-released:
*Fervid Censer
*Mini Ellen Kiel
*Mini Evon Gnashblade
*Mini Toxic Nimross
*Fused Gauntlet Ticket
*Gas Mask Skin
*Infinite Watchknight Tonic
*Sclerite Karka Shell
*Slickpack

I’m not sure if this topic has been made already or not but, for future events such as the festival of four winds, I, along with many others I’m sure, would appreciate it if living story items weren’t re-released, you can get enough tokens to buy them in a single day now, the halloween and dragon festival related items sure, since they might become seasonal, but a lot of the rewards we worked towards are just cheapened, take the fused gauntlets, before it was ‘i participated in the very first living story arc and i have these to prove it’ now its ‘bought it because it looked funny lol’

to those that say that they didnt get the chance to obtain it, or that hadnt bought the game yet, you will have more chances to get other such items in season two that newcomers woudnt have obtained to make you feel special

leaving lions arch ruined is stupid – in the story missions – you are fighting to protect a ruin – its breaking immersion big time

Flash.6912:

are we getting the same old contents as last year or new ones?

mixture of old and new

i cant wait for today’s patch unfortunately for me, patches normally come in the evenings

i like the living story idea, season one was a bit naff though, i’ll be optimistic and say that because it was the first season, they were learning how to and how not to do it, season 2 SHOULD be better :P

but if they said ’we’re bringing out a new continent in a large, paid expansion’ i will probably pay for it, depending on the price of course :P

or maybe they will try to gang up on the tougher one because once tough guy is dead, weak guy is easy pickings?

just because the race as a whole is more warlike, doesnt mean we’re all uncivilised brutes – look at evon gnashbade, he uses military tactics to run the most successful companies in tyria
as for me, i have a sweet tooth so i like making cakes, fruit salads and other tasty things

my charr is currently a master chef – and because of the wardrobe, i wanted to see what the chef outfit would look on him – i clicked on ‘style’ scrolled down to the chef outfit and clicked it for preview – only to find…. that my charr doesnt have the tall chef hat…. in fact, the head gear as well as the ‘chefs tools’ that comes with it made me look more like some kind of torturer or butcher, my charr makes fine cuisine, not hacked up pieces of meat… – i checked my characters of other races and found that all of them had the proper attire as well as the proper tools for making actual food – the fact that my charr would look like he’d rather be cranking a rack persuaded me not to buy the outfit

i’m not demanding anything but i would appreciate if the charr chef outfit actually made my charr look like he could make tasty food

Falkor.7932:

The Zephyrites come though on their trade agreement and LA and help rebuild LA. Now we look down on the ruins of LA from our flying bamboo city, over the ruins of LA sunken in the bay.

But really I do think the Zephyrites will have some impact on the reconstruction.

+1 on this – plus its not that long until they return, what 2/3 months? as for what i’d like to see/i would plan into the city – towers with anti aircraft pact cannons as well as several airships flying overhead – claw island defends from sea, vigil keep defends from land, lions arch itself defends from air

as for the airships – why not airship docks? it’d be quicker and safer to trade by air than by sea or land

also the drill left behind lots of material – the charr could use this metal to build a charr section of town – la could be rebuilt with the areas dedicated to the races, maybe a mixture of types of buildings, norn, asura, human, charr and sylvari all mixed around together – it’d make for a more multicultural city

it says at the top of the wiki page This page contains information about a Guild Wars 2 component or feature that has been removed or replaced. The information on this page does not apply to the game as it currently exists.

guardian is pretty fun – i made my asura guardian, maxed it in two weeks ( i did very little other than play in those two weeks…. its ok it was a holiday) and I am loving my greatsword

well if you lose the money you only have yourself to blame – suppressions usually arent permanent (at least i dont think so)

assuming whoever sets off tequatl has over 100+ members online and willing to go ad fight – i prefer it not to be instanced

if its been deleted then i dont think it will be added to wardrobe – as for transmuted – the current skin and whatever it was transmutated from will be unlocked and skins that are soulbound will also be unlocked
