No, what I’m saying, Jestunhi, is that they failed to live up to their promises in the first place.

They are making up for it now.

Most of us are in support of the upcoming update, just a small minority complaining.

Exactly.

Re-read through this entire thread that consists of close to 900 posts. I think you’ll find that the people in favor are the minority.

Blind assumptions…

Na, I’m just more vocal in that I agree with update and feel compelled to contrast the whiners or entitled naggers that must voice their “concerns” of the game.

Most people just read the update and move on.

As opposed to blindly slobbering over everything ArenaNet pumps out without regard for anything of consequence. A mindset welcomed in communities that allowed SWTOR become what it is now.

Sorry, I do consider myself a fan of GW2. I very much enjoy the game, and I hope the devs will do w/e it takes for the longevity of the game.

There is no subscription, and you can come and go as you please.

This and SWTOR can not compare, sorry for that too.

Yeah apparently we were suppose to be experiencing end-game throughout the entire leveling process, but I must be the only one that feels let down in the department.

No, not the only one.

There’s a reason why the games population is lowering. Nothing to do at level 80 was one. sPVP was two. WvW being called “casual” by a dev was three.

But it seems people want nothing to do at level 80 it seems. Run around with a 100% unlocked map. Full upgraded gear for the duration of the games lifespan. You’ll max out your crafts…then what?

Eek.

Adding more content without grind? 2vs2 vs3 arenas? duels? gvg?
Do you really think that adding more nerding things is the way?
Lowering population? LOL 4 server on medium and the rest all full/high, kitten please..

Hm. They can also lower the standard at which they measure population. Who would have thought?

i don’t think it works that way, think all the game that needed merges server cuz they all went on low population

Okay, let’s pretend that LA has Overflow as much as it used to.

Because it’s fine to claim that they have lowered the server pop cap to make servers look full, but suggesting they have increased the max concurrent players in a single zone is madness.

MADNESS!

No, the madness is the reaction in this thread.

Edit: Oh yeah, I’m not quitting, regardless of what the update entails. I’m pretty open-minded.

This should pretty much close the thread. Did you really expect, in all realness, no change in gear stats, ever?

Well considering that’s what ANet promised, yes.

They also promised an end-game experience throughout the entire gameplay, well?

Well, what? I have no problems with the leveling experience and the content offered there.

Well, obviously there are people here that agree they have failed to deliver on this concept.

They didn’t, though. There was a Dev video chat, maybe it was on Twitch.tv I forget. But they explained quite clearly what they intended this endgame to be and it is exactly as they stated in that video. No broken promises. Players that are unhappy are the ones that hoped it would be something else. But ANet did actually deliver on that promise, whether you like it or not.

That’s interesting, especially in light of the rumors of the new gear. I mean what would cause them to change their minds?! Gradual decline, perhaps?

I do NOT think this is going to turn into the problem WoW has. Grind this to get this so you can do this to replace everything you got so you can do this and replace everything you worked so hard on over and over again.

I personally have beaten some explorer mode paths in Arah in full greens back before I could afford better armor. And nobody knew because you cant check people and I was skilled enough to dodge and keep myself alive and do what I needed to be useful.

Now I have 3 professions to 80 all in exotic gear and I find myself wishing I could customize or specialize my character a little more into a specific area. And maybe they are starting to work into that with this infusion slot. It could allow you to boost specific abilities or attributes of your choice outside of what runes do.

An easy way to get people to calm down is just allow craftsman to put infusion slots on other gear.

Now you have opened a whole new area in the market for craftsman.
You have allowed people to further specify how they want to play the profession they enjoy.
Added more content for people to work at with out killing what they have already worked so hard on.
AND your opening doors for harder mechanics, bosses, dungeons, areas, so on.

Is this what they have in mind? Maybe or maybe not but with how much time they spent developing this game I am sure they have given it more thought then o people are crying about this or that lets quick change everything we built this game upon.

P.S. In my opinion eventually the current exotic gear will be replaced with better gear. We will see new crafting recopies we will see new dungeon gear we will see new event gear. It allows for harder content and new ways to play. If that really angers people to the point they have to quit the game maybe an MMORPG is not right for you…

Many people will embrace this concept despite the fact some of you, rather selfishly I might add, can’t see it’s better for the lifespan of the game.

Disappointed, but I’ll see what comes of it.

One of the perks of not having to pay a monthly subscription is that there’s really no “quitting,” except for writing the game off permanently as a protest.

Well, I’ve “invested” like 50+ Euros in the cash shop for now, because I wanted to support the game. Add a stat grind of any kind, and they won’t ever get a cent from me again.

So? I’ve spent over $100. More things to do is more things to do, for you and me!

Here’s to hoping you can also obtain the new gear from pvp!

Yes, GW2 needed this!

In WvWvW, have the bonus stats be on a 3-5 min CD that can be activated.

Wouldn’t take that post seriously. That guy is a troll in every sense of the word.

But I wouldn’t be gloating too much either, SBI. You should know well why SBI is winning. Fortunately, for you guys, there is a server that has the coverage to contend with you, just not in T1 yet.

It’s really not rocket science. When I look around my wvwvw comrades, I see guildless green arrows.

For whatever reason, there’s not one guild on BG that has the numbers and dedication to help place them first. I do see players from known guilds, but not the entire guild force.

Top that with the Asian/Oceanic presence SBI has, like I said, it’s really not rocket science.
