Guild Wars 2

On side note after seeing what mess they created with Lost Shore event fail and Fractals i fear that the WvW updates may screw everything that is already shaking with all the bugs and class imbalances and put the last nail to WvW coffin.

I rather would like all bugs addressed than new content.

Colin Johanson: “In February, we’re going to do a whole bunch of expansions on top of that world vs world area, to make that experience even more uniquely Guild Wars. But that’s something where we took a lot of inspiration from a previous game, and take that and then build on it and make it something even more.”

So while PvE gets monthly Events,New Dungeons and tons of fun for PvE lovers stuff WvW gets nothing positive and they dare to state that will let us rotten 6 months after the start of the game till we get something new.

While i don’t care so much about new aka “more stole ideas from another game” stuff (yes they stole WvW idea from DAoC) i do care about the tons of bugs and wrong stuff related to WvW to be addressed by the people who are responsible for them since those guys/girls don’t even show up on forums at all (how about you man up and face your demons finally?)
Even showing up once in a while to drop few lines on this forums and answer some questions is something really.I dare to say that PvE and sPvP gets a lot more love on forums and other media channels than WvW ever.

Here’s a Red Guard video from last week, enjoy.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xy9Zd4zkj1w
Looking for more of the same this week gonna be a good one.

Well this is what i call “Guild Wars”.

Really nice action Guild VS Guild.

Massacre Style Battles 4 ever.

Just to make the picture clear for everyone since i noticed that not everyone is getting the point :

If enemy attackers build a siege you can go out and kill it with player attack but if defenders build a siege on top of unreachable supply depot from outside player attacks something is wrong since rest of the siege weapons are placed on the walls which make them attackable like the weapons attackers deploy outside when attacking and vulnerable to player attacks and thats why defended.

keywords : Reachable and Unreachable.

allways.9270:

Why don´t you also forbid Mortars?
Oil? Right .. you can burn yourself with it – delete!
I have a better idea .. cancel all upgrades .. and let´s all zerg, all day long .. how about it? If you take the garrison, we will Bay & the third server Hills – then we can take rounds .. run in circles! Follow the blue dot! Go, go, go ..

Mortars and others featured weapons like cannons and OIL pot of tower/keeps can be hit by Aoe (expect SM’s and few tower mortars) but Siege on top of Depots cannot be hit with Aoe.

Thank you for proving my point.

jkctmc.8754:

@Luna

So basically you don’t want defenders to be able to stop siege, so defending keeps/towers becomes virtually useless, to anyone, but a zerg?

The only way I would agree with this, is if I could restructure a keep because the current architects sucked, and I could design a better keep/tower, that I could defend easier, than they are now.

I have to agree that some tower/keeps are not siege friendly designed but with making siege able to be deployed on top of unreachable for Aoe place like supply depot (which is i’m sure not meant to be used for Rocket Launch Site) you destroy the tactics like mesmer portaling,rush from behind or flanking and all the rest and funny stuff and just turtle inside the keep/tower.

It’s okay to turtle but not to use Supply Depot for unfair advantage.

Roo Stercogburn.9671:

Siege in supply camps… good fun. Makes assaulting the camp fun. Makes defending it against muppets… profitable.

I would only be against siege weapons in cheaty places. Thats just not cricket.

Supply Depot dude…not supply camp please focus next time.

Sick of Unskilled QQcopters coming to forum and every time they cry my class get nerfed.

Anet Please give Thiefs the Ability to Summon – Protoss Mothership.

(Mothership behaves like the Arbiter: it cloaks and recalls friendly units, and may temporarily disable units. The ship’s long ranged attack allows it to contribute firepower from behind the front; it may also fire on the move. The mothership is the only unit able to survive a direct hit from a nuke. )

I’m not joking anymore for every nerf Anet do to thiefs we should get an equal to power buff.

What worries me most is building catapults and balistas to counter attacker siege since they cannot normally be useful if they don’t have clear side people like to build them on top of supply depot to get a vision and clear side to hit and be away from outside aoe.

This is not right at all so i think that supply depot roofs should be siege restricted areas like building siege at spawn zones defended by Legendary guards.

What is everyone think about this ?

For me it shouldn’t be possible since its allow siege weapons to be out of Aoe dmg. and increase their range or make possible use of Catapults,Trebuchests from safe place again out of aoe range and in all cases puts defenders in better position.

I’ll be really happy to hear from Anet about this as well.

There will be HUGE xmas tree on the place of it soon don’t worry.

This made my day really thx

P.S. Did this guy logged out seeing the ZOO heading toward him ?

I know that many will not agree with me or even hate me for this but someone should be the black sheep.

Thats my personal point of view and no one is meant to agree or like it but yet here it is.

One of best ideas of this game was the idea of being somehow free and not bound to things we was bound playing other MMOs.
I loved the fact that i can go everywhere,do whatever i want and whenever i want.

But this have changed lately with the chain if mistakes Anet made.
They introduced a new item tier which require you to run a Dungeon.
And that was the only possible way to acquire those new items instead of adding them to WvW,sPvP and World Drops.
They already limited the game doing this and i do not agree with it.

We all saw how this new dungeon dragged most of the player base out of WvW,sPvP and world map into a single point – LA Dungeon Entrance.
GW2 is bound to player base from day 1 and to run it require players to play all parts of it or they slowly die.

As Anet already stated they intend to increase the numbers of this new dungeons in time as well as add the same gear to the other parts of the game however the damage is already done and with more dungeons and more items to come i fear that this will be the end of GW2 as the game we know it and turn it to something not pleasant to be part of.

I think Anet should put Dungeon Entering Cooldowns already and Dungeon cooldown reseter scrolls to the shop.(before you say it..they already copied a lot of content from other MMOs so it don’t matter if someone did this already)

all you can get is this :)

On top of everything the ore itself can be “annoying”

P.S. Before you ask i always use Ori Picks.

Oh wait you didn’t see the “LF Guardian with Shield and Ele on full heal both supports” ?

You didn’t see anything yet

Let’s See what everyone got from the last event.

P.S. I quit after 1:30 minutes after it started since it was too late in here and i had to sleep and get to work

Siphaed.9235:

Phase 3 is to fight the Ancient Karka on Southsun Cove….(assumption).

Reasons:

1) They’ve been building Asura lazer cannons and trebuchets facing the webbed cavern entrance.

2) There’s a giant blocked-off cave that they have to open (what better way than the event?).

3) It’s a finish of the story of chasing after the Ancient Karka.

Just to back you on this :

4) There is a huge breakable floor inside the webbed cave aka “Karka Hive” which seems that Ancient Karka will come from :)

Blacktide Uncontested.

We just took it so hurry up.

Well i reported this 1 week after GW2 started but yet its still here !

1.It prevent us from teleporting to the keep/tower since enemy NPCs make it under-attack all the time.
2.We waste money so some enemy NPCs can spawn in our keep.

As many of you may already noticed that there has been a dramatic decrease of bot numbers in past few days (past 2 updates).

I’m really grateful to Anet and all their efforts to remove those as a bot reporting player.

Past 2-3 days i was unable to find a single bot to report while i do my daily Ori Ore grind which made me smile and made my day better.

So i want to thank Anet for the great job and keep it up guys !

P.S. Somehow the overall culling in ORR and WvW has decreased for me with all the bots gone.

Coming soon @ Eu Cinemas…oh wait WvW i mean.

Another bug that pop up after nov. 5 update.

Its been 2h since they posted it and probably it’s over long time ago.

It’s not working for everyone in my guild same for rest of the server.

server: Desolution

This video contains content from EMI, who has blocked it in your country on copyright grounds.
Sorry about that.

(get owned son)

Uncontested again in DESOLATION.

Uncontested again in DESOLATION.

Balthazar Uncontested at DESOLATION right now

AcidicVision.5498:

…how did you all just overlook the giant kittening crab in the screenshot a few posts up?

Where is it!? I Want to poke it with things!

Morgan’s Spiral

People who participated in betas would remember this ^^

Good Job Anet,now hackers got jobless !

When this mythical build will come up ? it’s already 20:00 GMT.

The Russian guild(S) you got came from: far sheep&pigs? (no offense just couldn’t resist in name of Halloween costume brawl)

out of curiosity since their server got added to the red book of extincted species this week.

How this is culling when there is only 2 of you ?

As i recall from the AMA of devs culling was supposed to happen only in overpopulated areas at same time (like in LA at Event times) when server-player rendering start slowing due to huge numbers (not like in your video 2 chars to render).

So you basically telling me that culling happens on 2 chars populated area ?

I find this hard to understand really.

Around 30 minutes after the event started with naked char. (I’m GMT+2)

the party got bugged and when i entered i was alone -.- so i decided to try my luck solo xD

After seeing that my gear will get screw over this fight i unequipped it all which didn’t change anything to be honest

Was taking a screen with the moon when i realized there is something else.

I got this bug too Jumped inside got the achievement and loading screen ported me back down like i failed while i had to be ported to inside the tower.

I got the chest on the next try tho when you get used to the jumping tower its get easier and easier

Tsuko.7649:

I did it and all i got where some slippers!

What did you expected … LEGENDARY ?

(that turn out to be a good joke i’ve created lately lol)

Norn Thief.

Did it on the 3rd time and happened to get bugged few times at the top before that as well.

I’m thinking to make the biggest character ever and stalk the clocktower till the end of event

/discuss

I still have hope in humanity and Anet.

People why you don’t take some time reading what is written on the message when you enter those games instead of ruining them for everyone else when you don’t read and just run around like headless kitten ?

Anet why you guys didn’t consider the fact that people will not read the rules and will ruin everything and put some information about those games after you enabled act 2?

Like some tutorial and guide or at least “what to do post”.

I got fed up with ignorant people who just run around and ruin the game for the rest.

why you even made another topic while there is another one just 3 lines under this will full info already ?

Ever heard of search ?

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/halloween/Anyone-find-any-of-the-jumping-puzzles/first#post514936

Yes

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Coddler%27s_Cove

And where is the entrance to this ?

Ranger : Where i can get a Juvenile Polar Bear ?
Me: North Pole ?

I’m pretty sure everyone faces some funny moments so lets see them

You guys are doing it wrong !

When you got the keys,you should go to the door and say “Open Sessame” !

P.S. Sorry couldn’t resist more…out of this frustration -.-

Clem.2963:

Maybe if an account as been reported (for botting) X number of times, they could be prompted with a Captcha box.

^ This.

So this way human players wont get affected or if they get affected from hater’s report the ratio we calculated is 1/1000 players to type 5 letters is nothing to die for or to whine for.

There are bots at Cursed shore marked on my map.

They’re there since ages got reported at least 1 000 times already since this morning but yet they’re still there.

Please Anet Employees responsible for this issues take action.

They spoil the events for normal players.

P.S. i don’t think its so hard for 1 Anet Employee to jump from server to server and check those 2 farm spots.

P.S. Wrong forums section -.-

Uncontested at DB right (look like here some1 is making the event everyday and successfully)

So my question here is can Anet put a CAPTCHA ?

Well long story short version is that i was gathering ori ores today in Orr and suddenly walked by those “farm” event areas.

What i saw was 10 same geared characters with random letter names.This got my curiosity and i stood there and waited the event start and to over.

Those was definitely bots with bear pets (i find it very amusing since all of them create a bear army when they farm)

I know many other games that used this CAPTCHA method and it worked pretty fine.

You would say that there is anti-farm feature in GW2…okey but as far as i remember the bots from my last MMO had a way-point system and if the bots in GW2 have it as well it will totally ruin the Anti-farm feature of GW2 since bots will be rotating to disable it. (i saw some bots near Balthazar Temple on 1 server that was walking on a pre-defined path and botting for 3 days.(i was trying to make the Balthazar event there so i can get my shards T_T thats why i know they was there 3 days even tho i reported them on the 1st day.)
