Guild Wars 2

Thats why its a suggestion forum. They dont HAVE to impliment anything, but anything they do like th eidea of and decide to run with they can impliment however they see benifits the game.

I can ask em for a red ferrari that gives 1001% speed increase. Dont mean they have to give me one

They already have a death squad apprantly hunting down bots. They cant change professions and become mount creators overnight so I seriously dont see why people worry about such things.

I still love the fact that some folks are saying no to mounts cos its only a cosmetic item. Yet the whole games build around cosmetic stuff. Blows my mind

if the event dont have a champion in it, you can solo it easily. I do em all the time, I farmed 3 events that spawn within a minute of each other and once the third ones done I can repeat the 1st one.

So you cant do solo. SOme you can. Since they are designed to be group events that fact that I can solo some at all shouldnt be correct. But at least Anet have plenty for all to sink their teeth into.

DavidGX.1723:

I think the way this game was designed is just not for someone who wants a new, more powerful set of gear every some-odd months. It just may be the wrong game for you.

pretty sure they said the game had something for everyone though

everyone wants it!

I know how they are designed. But they are set up to do NO DAMAGE if someone already put them up. Its not a case of em being less powerful its a case of them being useless.

I feel sorry for the condition builds since its a blatant oversight.

The dragon world bosses could do with being killed quicker to prevent people falling asleep at their computers anyways.

BrunoBRS.5178:

well, be happy you didn’t get randomly suspended for “accumulation of infractions” without ever having received an infraction, like i did >.>

that will be me soon but Ill have earnt em

So Olba you think its quite fair that their damage is totally ruined in a group situation? Oh well I guess its a good job its a single player game and we dont have to work as a team or take other people into account I suppose.

EDIT: forgot to add. Nothing preventing them from increasing bosses health if they are dying to quickly.

BrunoBRS.5178:

i’m shocked that people need foolproof stuff that can be easily replaced by the act of paying attention.

I guess your just just sooooo perfect having never made a single mistake with anything in your entire life. Give ya head a shake

I want an Asura manufactored scateboard!

My Krewe laughs at your Krewe’s asura scateboard, because we have already invented the much more superior asura hoverboard instead. :P

You sir have won the war of the internets. I bow to you and your krewe

Barricade.3210:

Certainly I know it would not be for everyone but atleast for a few who are concern of a level kind of play wouldn’t you like to have one? just today i have been busting my every moves in a dungeon when i notice a ranger doing just a single attack the whole time, which is auto-attack skill 1. Would yo like this kind of thing to continue for the rest of the game?

You seem like a nice sensible chap. And maybe a recount in your hands wouldnt be so bad. Maybe you wouldnt turn into some elitist pleb. You would use it for good, maybe even save a kitten from a tree because of it

The issue is that once it hits the streets (trying to sound hip and cool now) the actual elitists would jump on it like a teenage girl at a biebler concert. They would analyze the crap out of everything. And in turn destroy the unquieness of GW2 combat.

so what if stuff becomes easier to kill cos they made it so the poor saps whio play condition builds are doing some actual damage. So when I roll up with my warrior and start chopping at the nasty dragons leg maybe i should get a warning saying sorry u dont do damage cos that other warrior strated bashing it 1st.

As someone who used to chase the top spot on world of logs for WoW a recount was my holy grail. But for GW2, Id hate to see it. The problem is that with recount comes cookie cutter specs that everyone HAS to have or be excluded from dungeons. There is no diversity just numberless clones.

I perfectly understand as to why you would like one, hell even Id like one for personal use, but the road it sends everyone down is not for this particular MMO.

I want an Asura manufactored scateboard!

The Demonic Spirit.3157:

No more hatred here !!!!
Stop giving your opinions ( both sides ) as I think it’s enough for Anet to decide !!!
This will be the last reply from players as we are waiting Anet reply to this >>
Can Anet tell us their thoughts on mounts for God’s sake !!!?
Can they end this long arguement , please !!
(( We will agree whatever choice Anet make as we believe that they know the best ))

i think your over stepping here. Last I checked its not for you to decide when people stop giving their opinons weather for or against it. I do agree Anet should say weather its something they will never do or something they would look to do aslong as it was correctly etc

Stuff like this can only improve the game. They dont need to nurf numbers just the overall fell of abilites.

People make mistakes. They shouldnt be punished for it. Not willing to help out someone who has made a genuine mistake is plain lazy on Anet part. They can do a buyback for that 33copper sword so why not the big fugly armour of costs a fortune

Ive a human male warrior, male asura engineer, female norn guardian, female norn mesmar, female humna elementalist.

Im sure someones gonna say I race and gender confused now right?

BTW female norns are hot!

Kreslin.6832:

The point is, that you don’t listen. It’s a waste of time, trying to prove something to you. You just don’t listen at all. I don’t want to waste my time anymore.

If you don’t wanna see the reason, the facts, so be it. Your choice.

Funny cos I listen just fine with people not talking crap. But since you are I dont value your opinon at all. Your a hater for the sake of hating and tbh, boring a hell while doing it.

Besides I thought you had gone.

To be fair though they are forcing PvP players to do PVE content by a much greater value since the actual world has ZERO PvP going on in it. Ive yet to be doing a jumping puzzle while fighting off a pesky mesmar. But now I mentioned it that sounds like fun

Kreslin.6832:

Lutharr.1035:

Thats the extent of your arguement? Cos they aint in now? Your in the wrong part of the forum then aint ya.

Conversation is over. From now on you can argue with someone else.

Sup? Are you upset that there is actually a suggestion forum at all? Since by your logic if its not in the game now then Anet aint interested in it. Yet its Anet that made the suggestions forum. Mindbending huh

fay the thing is I agree with you 100%

but Im just stating what Anet seem to use as their mantra

EDIT: My 1st comment was me being sarcastic towards Anet not the idea btw

You start your arguement that you want people to have to think more while in combat then want to dumb it down. Im confused

why would anet promote such a feature when they said they want people to be able to take breaks without any punishment

use the same sytem as DCUO and have styles. But to save em u need to burn a transmute stone. U can change as much as u like without having to dick around with your gear constantly

dual spec would make life so much better.

its a fantasy game, its not supposed to make 100% logical sense

Iruwen.3164:

ANet knows best what kind of gamers buy the most gems, and considering the fact they made another game based on the “no endless grind” philosophy, it obviously pays out. I wouldn’t expect grinding players to pay for gems anyway as they’ll be able to spend gold instead.

The best kind of gamers to buy gems certainly aint ones not playing it. And Gw2 is not Gw1. They are trying to increase their stake in the mmo market. And no one wants to turn gw2 into a mindless korean grindfest. But there is some middle ground (well to those that aint wrapped in just what they want only anyways).

Kreslin.6832:

Ask yourself, why don’t we have them right now? As I sad, you just don’t care about facts, you prefer not see them, because you want this mounts so badly.

You just don’t want to listen. This argument make no sense, cause you don’t listen.

Thats the extent of your arguement? Cos they aint in now? Your in the wrong part of the forum then aint ya.

Jia Shen.4217:

I’m following the dicussion in full and like Kudzu.7569 I’m trying to understand the position for the gear progression and whatnot.

My position isn’t of a type of fun as you appear to have misunderstood me. I’m making a point and expecting answers to my legitimate questions. Is the content you (genric you) do in GW2 fun? If so then why do you need any new improved gear reward for doing something you have fun doing instead of what it already gives? If you’re not having fun doing the content then how does adding a new improved gear reward to that content all of a sudden make it fun? And if it doesn’t then why desire them to add a new improved gear reward to something you aren’t having fun doing so you have to do something you’re not having fun doing to get it?

Just because it does make it more fun for me and many others. There is no profound reason, no revelation, it just does. I like playing football or if your american soccer /spit), now winning a trophy shouldnt make me enjoy it anymore, but it does.

Jia Shen.4217:

There may be some that think that, I certainly don’t. What matters is arenanets mission for the game. How gear works is part of their philosophy and how it works now is because of that. Personally I will get whatever the best gear is because I like to have the best gear. It’s an old school table top RPG thing. But only as long as getting it isn’t a grind. The OP appears to not have fun doing the content and wants the better gear as incentive to do content that’sn’t fun for him/her. And why I pose my questions.

people get tired of doing the same things over and over unless there is a incentive to do them. Its as simple as that. Its not a case of just fun its a case of seen it done it got the t-shirt. Now if your working towards something while it may be an illusion in some peoples eyes its still very real. Motivation is one of the most powerful things a humna being can experiance no matter if its in a digital world or in RL. It drives people.

Jia Shen.4217:

That’s part of their expectations as I said before. They don’t want everyone to play continuously. They want you to play and have fun playing it as much as you want to. Stop and do other stuff and come back when new content is out for you to have fun doing. Why would they need to constantly rush out content or introduce a gear grind to keep those people playing when those people can go do other stuff and come back to the game when new content is there for them to do? There is no doubt they will make loads of money. They already have with well over 2 million players and I’m willing to be nearly all of them are still playing and having just as much fun as they have been having the whole time.

The 1st line in your statement is what annoys me the most. Not you personally cos your just repeating what Anet said. Why it bothers me is because its a blatant and odvious LIE. Anet while they may have gamers working on GW2, they may have gamers being their mouth piece as it helps when interacting with the gamers they are speaking to. But the fact of the matter is that they are a buisness. They dont want people to put down the game and come back later. people not playing the game dont by gems, they dont put money in their pocket, which as a buisness is beyond stupid. Its buisness suicide. Not only that but when people take “a break” from games. The chances of them returning dwindles more and more each day. So the chances of them buying an exp or whatever is in the cash shop wont happen either. Again goes against the reason they are in buisness.

If Anet was owned by some mad billionaire who is paying for GW2 no matter what then fair enough. But it isnt.

The games awesome. But once your level 80 for a while it starts to get stale. people dont return to games they left because it got stale (well most wont).

Notice how the people who are against the idea always seem to play card that the one for it aint thinking. Oh really. So your I dont want mounts (insert rant) is indepth, thoughtful and so intelligent that those on the side of mounts are probably just to dumb to work out. God you people are condecending prats.

Mount runs at the same pace as your toon and only difference is the aesthetic of it. If your against asthetics then why even play GW2 since thats it WHOLE focus.

absolutly brilliant idea. Love it.

Cloud.7613:

Absolutely not, this would be unfair for WvW.

try reading more, maybe you may discover something.

@Kudzu. Basically yes, that would be an ideal solution in my eyes. People who like easier content can have their fun while those that like to push it a little further can have theirs. Everyones happy (well this is the net so most likely not everyone).

If it was an exploit then they would need to ban their entire playerbase. Since its not and exploit your gob wobbling counts for nothing. Just because you dont liek it for whatever reason dont mean its an exploit.

why “cant” you use keybinds?

Just get used to keybinds tbh. Its not that hard considering there isnt many abilites, cos truthfully I cant see them changing it.

They dont fit in the game? I guess u either cba to read the posts where that so-called fact was proven wrong or just plain ignored the fact. Waypoints would remain as they are. Dont think there is anyone who has asked them to be changed. Speed boon aint there to get you from A to B faster. They are there for combat purposes.

Dont need an arguement against not having mounts. Since its a suggestions thread.

Vahn.9728:

People don’t want others to find out they are running around in Magic Find gear.

People dont need to hide it. If you cant complete a dungeon with it on then face facts. You aint as pro as you try to maintain you are.

Korrigan.4837:

No. It’s not necessary and only creates trouble and elitist behaviors.
And if you want to know what that good looking piece of gear someone wears is, why not just ask him, you know, communicating with other players… you may even make a few friends in the process

^^THIS^^

I had a good conversation with someone the other day who only wanted to know about the armour I was wearing. We are now friends. See communication does have lots of benifits. If inspect was in the game he would have never spoken to me and we wouldnt have known we had stuff in common and enjoyed each others sense of humour.

@Kudzu
Greeting. And for once someone who may not share others point of view but comes across as someone with whom folks can have a decent and informed conversation with.

I totally understand the concerns on such matters. One of the reasons in another thread I straight up opposed the inspect option. I used to be a very hardcore player in WoW but I was far from elitist, Its still only a game when all is said and done. I understand that when you bring gated content you will get some dregs who act like total plebs (i like this word as it dont get turned into kitten). We have it now already in GW2 and there is no gate, and the instances are easy. These people will act like they do cos frankly. They are just the usual internet trolls ya always find rear their heads.

The 3 tier system is alot easier to impliment than folks think. Gives bosses more health, hit harder and maybe give em an extra ability here or there. But overall its someones choice to be there. The gear (i dont know how easy it would be to code) would be normal exotic outside a (lets call the high end dungeons heroic for now). So you wouldnt have the dumb people asking for people in heroic gear to enter normal dungeons.

In the end if they dont include more to do at 80 lots of people will abandon the game no matter what potential it has. If they introduce a ton of new content at a good pace then I think the whole gear treadmill could be avoided. But its weather Anet has the resources to keep up with the demand.

personally i like the system we have, just would like to see more options to spend karma on.

if my female norn mesmar gets to wear a thong bikini then im all in favour!

double headed axes PWEEEEAAAASSSSSSEEEEEEE! /puppydogeyes

MithranArkanere.8957:

Now, at the top of the puzzles like that there should be something really, REALLY worthwhile, like a Quaggan singing GW’s version of Bohemian Rhapsody or something.

Best idea on the internet EVER!

Anet make this happen. Ill give ya 100quid just to purchase a mini that does this

I jump on my alt and spend 20 mins doing a little levelling

Kreslin.6832:

It’s a very bad idea. There is no place for mounts. We have waypoints, we have skills which increase speed. With mounts it would be ruined. The whole system would be collapsed.

Even without any speed boon. Just stop asking mounts and think, just think. You are doing jump puzzle. Norns and Charr cause some… inconvenience. Think how it would be horrible, when someone will do this puzzle on his mount.

And again. We have waypoints. We have skills which increase run speed. There is no place for mounts.

So your arguement against mounts is that some people will be kittens if they are allowed them near jump puzzles? Easy solution. Anyone proven to be doing this is reported for griefing and any mounts summeraly removed even if they had to use Rl money to buy them with gems (thats just an example). I dont see people acting up when they see and hear about people getting their butts kicked for acting like plebs.

The thing is and this is universally true no matter what MMO your playing, you will always have certain kinds of players in any given game. I think the days of catering to one demographic of playing styles is long gone. People dont have time to invest in different games to fulfill each aspect of their gaming desires. People like me enjoy investing their time and effort into one MMO.

People harp on about turning GW2 into WoW with any suggestion thats made in these forums. What folks forget is that said game has a layer base of 10 million people for a reason. Even if I dont enjoy the game anymore myself I can still where they have done things correctly.

Since the endgame focus was raids lets have a little look at how they tried to handle keeping everyone happy. They had 3 tiers of the same raid. They were almost identical. Looking For Raid mode was very basic and was there to get people into raiding at the ground floor. Normal mode when the majority of people spent their raiding, and then Heroic mode (til they killed em with their pathetic nurfs).

The gear looked the exact same so if a simular system was in GW2 people aint forced to do harder content for skins unless thats what they wanted to do. But it also gives those people who want a greater challange something else to chase and choice.

The extra stats made the harder instances possible, but the overall feel of the instances was the same. So those saying it would ruin the game are talking tripe imo. If you want to do a dungeon/instance etc for the fun of it only, then good for you. I for one wouldnt begrudge you that. But why begrudge me what I want if it only eefects you if you so choice to jump on that treadmill. Personally I feel that to many people are just plain selfish and want what they want and kitten anyone else.

Twilight i was meaning clipping issues. Alot of females clip insanely with shields, almost like if they were supposed to equip a shiled they should shave their heads.

Its out of combat so nothing gets unbalanced. Im sure people just object to things for the sake of objecting
