“all the bank tabs”? There is a limit?
It doesnt change anything.. the game sends the following data:
playerx: head: blue: shoulders: blue, coat: blue, pants: blue, shoes: blue.now it will look like this
playerx: head: red, shoulders: blue, coat: green, pants: black, shoes: pink.Did you really think arenanet would make culling worse if it the data would be bigger? This is not the case. RELAX PEOPLE, enjoy your colors!
The old implementation would look more like this:
playerx: servername, class, head.model, shoulders.model etc
No colour information would need to be sent since it could all be done clientside based on armor skin and server name. So you will end up sending marginally more data (dyes can be represented in 9 bits) so you need minimum 6×3×9 (assuming each slot has 3 dyes) bits more per player when loading them the first time. Not a whole lot more, but a little.
It might not have been necessary in the old implementation but the colors were being sent anyway. Enemy colors are usually not very noticeable but I remember 2 instances where the enemy had very distinctive colors. One of them contributed several points to my monthly.
Maybe enemies were shown with random sets of colors before but I would have expected more horrifying color combinations in that case.
Not a bug.
Weapons purchased with karma from vendors in Fireheart Rise, Iron Marches, and Fields of Ruin now have their intended skins instead of tier 3 cultural skins.
Unfortunately this probably affects my elementalist’s staff as well.(still downloading patch)
Hey staff of the Greatest game of all time!
I was just wondering, but could I transfer my account to my stepson?
the reason I ask is I have very uncontrolled type 2 diabetes and am begining to have serious issues with it. Doctors are talking about me losing my feet soon and already my vision is leaving me. I might be good for a day or two, but I have other times where my vision is so bad due to my sugars I just cant see much of anything.
I was just wondering when I do lose my vision permanently,m can I give him my account?
thanks
I also have the same health issue. Can I transfer my account to someone else?
;) No, I’m just kidding. See how a transfer can be abused though? Selling accounts is a big no-no.
I’m sorry you have an illness and it must suck, but you can’t transfer accounts to people. It would be no different than selling your account. It would be cool if we could, but no. I am sorry.
I did some digging on this website and found this: https://www.guildwars2.com/en/legal/guild-wars-2-content-terms-of-use/
Q: Can I resell, give away, or trade my Guild Wars or Guild Wars 2 account? Can I sell items on my account for real-world money or trade them for items in another game?
A: No. For further information, please see the Guild Wars User Agreement and Guild Wars 2 User Agreement.Just, don’t tell anyone if you do it.
P.S. Go to a famous art museum and look at some pictures while you still have the chance. You won’t regret it.
On the other hand from https://www.guildwars2.com/en/legal/guild-wars-2-user-agreement/
“However, You may allow access to an Account to any family member who is living in Your household.”
Disconnected from internet/PC crashed – surely Anet will have enough smarts to detect if IP gone all together or just closed the client…….
There isn’t any way to reliably do this and combat the problem at the same time. Say they detect a standard game exit or quit, triggered via menu or via alt f4, possibly via a forced closing on the process. If they are detecting it in any of the aforementioned ways all you have to is “turn of your wifi”, “unplug the ethernet” etc.. and your connection would “timeout” as if you had a natural disconnect and you know what all the kitten kids that rage quit out of the game would do? They would start unplugging cables and turning off their wifi instead.
That would actually be fine. If someone unplugs their connection then their character will remain in the world until the timeout occurs. The player only remains for a very short time if it is a crash, not sure about disconnects.
I would actually be VERY happy if they increased the time for the timeout since that would actually fix a majority of my disconnect issues.
For SPs where there is only one enemy you can also use Aegis.
This patch keeps looking better and better. What’s next? Flying Asuras in airships?
I would definitely like to ability to pick up Asuras and throw them off of airships.

Looks like a majority this seems to have devolved into “give more loot!” but personally I would just like to see more “interesting” boss fights. I already have all the gear I need, masterworks and rares are good enough for me.
Examples of a good direction to go is the dredge mining suit and the jellyfish in the fractals. They have hefty HP pool but there are also mechanics to deal with it. Example of a bad way to go is the butcher in HotW, large HP pool with bad camera angle. The plunderer also felt like a fight against the environment and the inability to properly judge distances in underwater combat. Perhaps fighting the environment was part of the design of HotW?
One hit kills(especially from an Asura covered in particle effects -_-) and “we’re just going to cover the entire battlefield with AoE”(pretty much all of TA, previously mentioned dredge suit) just seems like lazy design. The homing/piercing/turns around to hit you again orbs in CoE story mode(haven’t done explorable yet) also feel a bit cheap. They aren’t too hard but dealing with them feels like a chore. About as fun as a kid being told to stop playing GW2 and go do their homework.
(Technically there are no one hit kills, just one hit downs but with enough downs that is no longer a useful distinction.)
Blossoms and the lack of waypoints in TA, I would like to punch the person(s) responsible. I guess it could be argued that the problem with these can be avoided by not dying but I would like punch whoever is making that argument as well. One is bad, both just makes things tedious. Do I stay dead and leave my team one person short or do I use a waypoint and leave my team one person short? Between the distance and the blossoms it’s not that much different. “Your team should revive you!”, see previous complaint about AoE.
Pretty much all the dungeons seem a bit too claustrophobic as well. I realize they are called dungeons but from what I recall of the missions/dungeons in GW1 they were not as constricting.
Less linear dungeons would also be nice. AC has 3 paths but in reality it’s only a single path that you play through with minor variation. That aside, it would also be more interesting if multiple ways to complete a path. People are already sort of doing this through exploits in some cases. Provide multiple ways to complete the mission, some ways could be longer/more difficult than others. Obviously the longer/more difficult ways should be more rewarding. Rewards doesn’t necessarily have to be loot but if you can’t come up with anything else then loot is an okay substitute.
I am still slowly working through the dungeons so the above only covers what I’ve done so far.
This should be fixed in the next big content update. There was an issue with the goggles not spawning on the floating islands because it saw them as “bad terrain” but I bugged a map artist to fix it.
Then who is going to fix the artist? :P
