Guild Wars 2

Fernling.1729:

Does it being an outfit not allow you to transmute individual pieces to mix and match with other pieces of armor?

No mixing and matching. All or nothing. Best case you can hide the head-piece but that’s it.

( and no one got the joke on last image yet? XD )

I don’t see any advantage for the player in outfits. Its only easier for the developers, nothing more.

An upcoming Snow outfit (datamined by that_shaman) should soon hit the Gem Store along with other items (sickle, magic carpet, another outfit, …).

This outfit is 1 of 2 already in the downloaded patch and should be unisex. Would look great on characters fighting in the middle of Mount Maelstrom by the lava.

Man someone make a female Ygritte dyed and dressed up with this looking for John Snow near Jormag…. yeah.

Your idea contains fun. Management will consider it for early Q4 2019.

FRACTAL RESET; NEVER FORGET.

NonToxic.9185:

“Hmm, rates of high school graduation are dropping! Let’s extend pre-school by 5 years, that should fix things.”

^ summary of leveling changes

Bad management choices are bad.

This isn’t a good time, but the real investors have a hefty percentage of their share in gems, attached to the rate. Were I you I wouldn’t go there because of recent price. Instead I’d save money and buy a useful non-underwater non-torch legendary and keep it as insurance.

Some people, so I heard, speculate the company may introduce new legendaries which may hurt the current ones’ prices, but a simple ArenaNet-reality-check will confirm this isn’t happening before December 2022.

Actual reference: Experience from Halloween 2013

As for Halloween 2014: We are hoping for 2012 with content (story), non-grind items (candy corn disaster), permanent costumes, and changes to Tyria. That would be great.
In short, everything other than 2013.

Halloween 2012 was the real deal, never to be seen again.
Halloween 2013 was the real flop, feared to be seen again.

Nick.6972:

Back then I remember watching all those trailers and being extremely hyped.
I remember how I waited for each class to be revealed and how I wanted to play the Thief as my main.
However soon after launch something happened, the game was gorgeous and beautiful, however the content itself was pretty poor, and continues to be that way to this day.
They had a direction before the launch, now, not so much.

^ This.

Plus I feel 90% of manifesto was a lie. There is much grinding, you do what everyone else is doing, you do swing a sword again, the village you rescued needs rerescuing 10 minutes later, no decision affects the world, and such. The good thing is that it does encourage cooperation and helping other downed players, but that’s about it.

The art team though, they delivered big. Kudos.

The Gold-Fed-Salvage-O-Matic will create precursors and let you mount into SAB wearing your cape before dueling with your friend from the guild-alliance.

Troof story.

Completely agree with OP.

Easier leveling please. We all have 80 mains, we’ve seen the rides 2 years ago, they are all the same since. Provide other-than-crafting (which is a punishment really) leveling.

My take:

• Great artwork
• Great sound
• Ok’ish QA
• Poor story and character depth
• Only 5 software developers in company

Given the pace of changes in two years, I estimate no more than 5 software developers are left employed post launch. Software-wise, only the wardrobe deserves any mention.

Currently the game is as-is. Nothing meaningful will ever change and new players warned for a grindy late-game to get anything.

Of These

Class balance: poor (hyper difficult ele vs foreheadroll warrior, where the later survives and moves more, with why play anything else notion)
Personal story: poor (shallow story, 1-liners, annoying cast, credit taken away from you, meaningless characters along way, final epic glorious prize is one 4-silver worth yellow item)
Living story: poor (shallow characters, 1-liners, juvenile dialog level, story goes slowly nowhere but sand)
Holidays: poor on 2013 onwards (Halloween 2013, need I add?)
New dungeons: 0
New weapons: 0
New weapon skills: 0
New races: 0
New professions: 0
Fractal reset compensation: 0 (never forget)

Overall; I would not recommend buying GW2 to any new player.

Race: Norn
Sex: Female
Class: Mesmer
Level: 80

Description: Chest piece chops long gloves.

The gloves issue has been reported for Charr and Asura, adding my Norn to it.

Here you may see that a TA chest piece (white) is chopping off the CoF gloves (purple) to be wrist-and-bellow only. This bug also happens with Radiant gloves, or any long gloves for that matter.

This bug is 1 year old, with 0 chances of a fix, and before it the gloves would render correctly from fingertips to just below elbow, as they were designed.

I do believe they have lost touch with the community. SAB is what we want!

SAB to be permanently enabled!

What Imperatora said.

Fun > all. Otherwise there is no game.

Oh, and Rox and Braham are not immersion, they are juvenile 1-liners who are stuck to my character by force.

SAB to be permanent!

How can a company ignore so many players with content that’s already developed?!

Why kill fun?? For what?

Vote up if you, like me, want SAB to be a permanent game-in-game! Those who don’t wana play it, don’t. And those who do, will be able to! Why the grief?!

Some things are just plain fun and shouldn’t be taken away on a whim.

Thank you,
- The player base

Why is it Celestial dye comes out dark grey in game? I wanted white. This is the story with almost all colors but black. They all become dark grey in game.

My condolences to you, I am sorry for your loss. May she RIP.

Be strong.

There is no excuse to being an Engineer.

Charming Rogue.8071:

Yes, if I could fork over 4k gold for this item I would.

Really???

I changed my main’s hair 3 times since launch, and of the limited options the current one is the best. Why on earth would you spend the grind-time-equal of 4k gold for this?! Do you change your character’s hair hourly for whole weeks?

Also, this isn’t an item that’ll ever be depleted. It’s RNG. More will come.

The last I’ve seen on the supply side was listed for ~3k. While I don’t see the use for them, if I had one, I’d list it for 11k for the next rich gold farmer to give me his money.

And that’s not a lot.

3710g is nothing.

Some players have accumulated over 200,000 gold. 3,710 for them is a toothpick.

Disappointed is not a good term here.

Living world content is terrible; new tiny verticals-filled zone a bore; dialogs meaningless and unskipable; player character forgotten and irrelevant; accompanying NPCs have 0 depth or complexity to themselves still spewing out childish 1-liners; rewards laughable (sand – yes sand is one of them); THIS is what took you months to develop??!

For clarity; by NPCs I mean the juvenile Braham, Rox, Kasmeer, Taimi, Marjory (“honey” / “sugar” / “doll” / x repeat), and maybe someone I forgot or wanted to forget.

In one scene I found myself fighting one “Aerin” character, who holds a “Peace Keeper” (or something ridiculous other I didn’t make a difference), and my own NPCs fighting with me.

• “Aerin” I knew nothing about 45 seconds ago
• “Peace Keeper” I know nothing about 30 seconds ago
• NPCs are scattered around busy being unhelpful
• NPCs take credit from me at end

So why am I fighting here? why do I care about hostage? who’s the bad guy / where he came from / how come he’s so strong and unknown / why can’t kill him in one fight (he becomes invulnerable several times to top it off) / how is he related to the world at all? why are my friends striking enemies for 0 or 50 damage? how do vines sprout from a pure rock-bed terrain with no lush earth? why are vines health-sacs who take so long for a full ascended-geared character like mine to kill?

I just wish I could pick up one of my NPCs and hurl them violently at the villain and get this dumb scene over with altogether.

Please allow me to toggle my NPC friends (they are really not my friends) to an attackable enemy state so I may kill them myself, and their death be unrevivable.

An added feature could be an auto switch to enemy-status the next time Marjory calls me “doll” / “honey” or “sugar”. (player receives Fury boon)

Cover art fantastic – Living Story sub-juvenile shallow – Main story dead.

P.S.

Remember dragons?

I am not referring to the single drawing at LS1 end, but actual non-bs to do something in game! Two years passed!

New dungeons: 0. New skills: 0. New races/classes: 0. Lore with depth: 0. New weapons: 0. New dragons: 0. New item in cash-store though: The Zero! for 1000gems calls you “doll” on RNG

Anybody here buys gems with $s given the awful game content? really?

- Group wiped
- Hunter ran away, his dumb tank pet found something to aggro
- Hunter waits afk, were all dead but in combat

HOW CAN YOU NOT BOOT THIS HUNTER TO HELL?!

Kill or run away.

~ yawn ~

What’s the problem again?

Another game where AH/TP makes business players rich.

Because supply vs demand graphs are fantasy immersion.

PvE: Warrior
WvW: Warrior
PvP: Warrior

“lfg <dungeon> <path> no rangers”

… and there I was looking for a fantasy world …

The TP has already killed much of fantasy and immersion by giving gold to businessmen just as in real life. Lets not feed it more stock exchange features please, I’d hate to leave this game for good.

He doesn’t seem rattled, he seems like he wants to rattle someone else … !

(yes I had to – and I’m not sorry :-D)

Fractal reset… never forget.

“More Gear, More Meaning”?

I’d settle for just more meaning.

I feel sorry for her to be given such a shallow 1 dimensional ridiculous flat character to work for. As juvenile and flat as the personal story was, this Villain Sue character of a Scarlet set a lower yet bar. Rumors say she was to be alive into season 2 but was pulled away not to alienate the playerbase from Guild Wars 2.

I know the voice actress was/is bound by contract to do the PR’ing, I’m just sorry for her to have gotten Scarlet.

Haha I love this OP already! This is what causes you to flip?!

(… and who runs ac p2 anyway?)

ordeal.9145:

made me cringe to say the list

Was it a long list? Some lists are so long to say that they make me cringe as well…

Oxidia.8103:

if i recall, it said: lvl 25 swamp rdy

And here lays your own direct fault. Never ever (ever) do fractals you didn’t open. Reread last sentence.

Anet wrote this terribad system of dungeon ownership: 1 king + 4 suckers.
I was once upon a time grief-kicked from fractals, and became the king ever since (until fractal reset where I’ve ditched them).

Look, by the way you write you seem like a good person, and this is why I took the time to answer you. Your thread is amongst a pile of great many due to such poor (I’d use another word) software design.

Understand – The simple words “swamp rdy” = mean in english “were looking for suckers”. And then you joined.

Funny, I used to be the one writing those words to others, I was never on the receiving side. 1 in 20-30 runs a pug would kick me for <insert any reason here> ………. and I would laugh so hard :-D

There is a reason my signature caries the “Grief” word in it.

Now why didn’t I buy dusks back when they were 77g?

I just hate the little flags on all of them.

… oh lore

2 year old juvenile static story.

w/e

Agree with OP, and see it Andred’s way (“New item in gem store! Wow!”).

Alas 2 years into the game and very little good content since (e.g. same 8 dungeons, no more, not fixed). The game is as-is.

Azrael.4960:

“This will not end well”

This well wont end.

Commander to me.

That is why you write your own application with TP API, and never use the horrid in-game gui

I’m sorry did I miss a needle in the arah haystack?

Suggestion: Make your claims, then put 2) Arah: 2.1) 2.2) 2.3) 2.4) ….. so the reader does not get lost in arah over and over.

Unless you edit your post, here’s what I see:

“1) Provide us with the option to only accept PM’s from people in your guild(s) or friends list, so that we can still communicate but without getting bombarded by spam in whispers. Do the same with the mail system as well.”

And then arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah arah.

That’s all you had to say?? Nothing else burning in this game?
