Guild Wars 2

Sorry but I can’t let this topic die. I’ll never surrender!!!!

Devs, let us know about your opnion over this topic!!!

At this moment, I really would any dev to talk about this..maybe they have a solution for our problem and if they wouldn’t have, I think it’ll be good some words…

ps: I hate some sentences in english, I don’t know how to put correct sequence of words =) sorry

Now, our problem is that Anet is changing this minigame we like, slowly killing its fun by adding more and more dailies. What we are asking for is a way of keeping this fun part with the smallest possible impact on other players, preferably none.

Thx Yamiga for the words!!!!

Guys, stop talking about health problem, or just because you think that you can’t stop.
This is like Yamiga and other good constructive replies that we saw on this topic, They are killing the fun behind the AP.

And don’t say, if you aren’t happy stop do AP-hunting, because if the game have any aspect that you don’t like, don’t came to forum to say that, because if you do, you’re being hypocritical.

Full Agree!! Copy some thoughts of my topic – “more dailies, are you kidding me?” and we all good.

Guys, if you don`t have this play style, we don`t asking for changes(maybe a little bit) but to won`t adding dailies. if they put more dailies, put a cap too, or we `ll see shared accounts.

those who want limited amount earned for dailies are the same people who have grinded for hours, are now tired of it, and don’t want others to catch up. .

That’s mostly it.

But, for the people who do these dailies everyday, the fact that most of them were not that challenging and were quick but varied and different was a nice carrot to have.

I am not looking forward to slogging up that tower for the hybrid point today after doing it yesterday. I can barely tolerate doing story dungeons once a weeks since there is so little variety (and even less variety of not-long story dungeons). WvW achieves are a pain in a week where the server has quit because of losing. Fractals are long and boring, a lot of people were doing lvl 1 swamp groups so they could quit and get the point instead of finishing.

If you make the game carrots really tedious people will quit.

Add more, fine, but don’t add tedious ones, limit exusting tedius ones, and keep them varied every day.

I know that you are immune to the allure of this carrot because you are a special snowflake, but this does not add anything to the discussion.

Maybe you right, but the main thing here is: don`t put more dailies at the game, at this moment its really hard to get all AP from dailies everyday, if you read all posts you`ll see a lots of players take off the battle, and adding more points it means, they gonna get 25k faster.

Maybe this is intentional, maybe not. But who has this play style, don`t want more dailies, and for who trying to catch us, think after you got it. and if you don`t play like that, who cares? you`ll not affect with this, the solution here maybe is, put a cap for dailies.

At this moment, if you lost all that living world you can`t catch us, there is no content that we don`t do it. I love gw2, and I play gw2 not because o loved gw1, but because gw2 is the best MMO on the market. ps: ultima online was the best mmo, but just pol edition, focus on mass combat =). chaosage

So, go ahead, show to devs what they should do!!!!!

I haven’t read through the entire thread, seems like there is a lot of hate, but I’d like to step in as another top AP grinder.

Yes, we happen to have a different style of play than many of you, but please understand that we are not suggesting ways to limit the rest of the players. We find fun in different ways, such as 100% completing games. When not playing GW2, I’m usually trying to 100% various handheld games.

When I got into the achievement hunt in GW2, it only took like 20minutes a day to finish my dailies. That left lots of time to work on the other achievements, and didn’t feel like such a grind. I understand that they game is going to evolve over time, but the amount require to get all daily achievements just keeps going up. Depending on which ones are active, who is on my friend list, how my server is doing in WvW, what living story ones are available, it can sometimes take 2+ hours just to get dailies done. I get that people want options, and I know some people will point out that we do not “need” all the dailies. We don’t need anything in the game, we don’t need to play the game. I’m simply pointing out that I had fun with an aspect of the game that has been changing to something that now feels more like a grind.

If you do not respect our style of play, I can understand that, but if QoL changes for us will not hinder you, please don’t point out that they are not “needed”. We are just trying to keep achievement fun a little interesting for ourselves.

I love you too man!!!

As has been stated in the thread before, it’s a playstyle. It’s a completionist habit. It’s how I want my account to reflect me as a player. One idea put the cap at 8 or 10 points, so that those who did their 5 could get their rewards, and myself and fellow hunters could get our full +8/10. It’s about the leaderboard to an extent, sure, but as the op stated, 4hours just on dailies isn’t a new thing for me either. Should ANet go through with the new dailies, and without putting a cap, I will try to earn all of them every day as best I can, just like I do now, and just like so many of my fellow AP hunters do and will.

The fact that its a playstyle, if anything, should support no cap. What about those that can do 8-10 dailies within an hour, I know I’ve done it before. If that was what they enjoyed doing, now they get less of it. So, what now, they log off? Maybe play WvW or PvP if they even like to do that? Maybe doing the dailies is what gets them logging in every day.

It seems to me that you want to be able to be competitive, but to reduce the amount of time investment required to remain competitive and/or cap the amount so the really competitive players (top 100) who have the time to pour into AP hunting aren’t able to get so far ahead.

I think the people that we should be surveying are in fact the top 100 on the leader board. If the majority of them want a daily AP cap then it should be considered. If they want it uncapped then leave it as is. The top 100 will essentially never change unless one goes on vacation. They will hit every LS achievement and do every daily possible regardless.

I mean, keeping it uncapped, if anything, benefits everyone because if you really wanted to you could work harder every day and get to the next achievement chest faster. If you burn out you can take it easy, and then get your second wind and grind out dailies for another two weeks to make a dent.

Almost all the players that make these threads are in the top 100. I’m #43 in NA right now.
I thought the forums were supposed to be a place of constructive conversation and you among others are remaining quite hostile over something you claim to care little about.
I too can do 8-10 dailies in an hour or less, on certain days, but it’s the remaining annoying ones that take so long. Dungeon completer, story step, fractal, most of the LS dailies. Lots of those take a bit of time and eventually they all add up to more time than they ought to. I do enjoy doing dailies to an extent, and it is what gets me online every day, but if it weren’t for that I would spend a ton more time in dungeons, fractals, and WvW. Hell I might even farm or spend more time in the Living stories than just to do the achievements and/or earn the rewards.
It’s not about making anything more or less competitive, especially if it doesn’t affect or influence you and your fellow non-hunters.

kitten , I LOVE YOU!!!!

A thousand times this. I fully support limiting the earnable daily AP, and have for quite a while now.

But why? Because you can’t control yourself without a cap? Because you can’t compete against other people that have more time and dedication to go beyond what you are able to complete?

I just don’t understand how it affects you or anyone else how much AP you can get in a day. Infinite, 5AP, who cares, how does it affect you? If you are competing for AP leader boards then it is assumed by literally everyone that you need to be able to play all the time. It sounds like you guys want to be competitive on the leader boards, but not want to have to dedicate all of your time to it. It doesn’t work like that in any competitive atmosphere, so why would they cap it here?

Plus if they did cap it, how would anyone ever be able to move up or down on the leader boards? Assuming the #1 guy did the maximum allowable daily AP and everyone else on the boards did it as well, what would even be the point? You’d have to hope someone above you missed a day or something.

Which competition is that you need to spend 4 hours per day? And are you telling me that I, or everyone, I said, EVERYONE that competition with me about this, are doing wrong? I don’t want be boring/annoying with you guys, but is really hard, 5 months early I was with 2k achievs points. I pass everybody on my friend list, because this competition is about endurance, how much you can endure for this? So don’t tell me things like that plz. If you theorize this problem, listen what are we talking, and for devs, concern all this discussion.

If you put on excel and know how long the first place can get the 25k AP. Ok? but the formula should have the living world, don’t remove points of living world just because the time for get 25k is out of plans.

Plz, don’t theorize the problem, get to it, live it.

PS: sorry about the words, and mistakes. And thanks again for all points of views.

Guys, like I said…who are in this world of achiev points, more daily are the hell on earth!!!

BELIEVE ME!!! I know what i’m saying =)…. 6months doing 100%

And thx guys for constructive discussion!!! We are getting both size of the coin.

PS: sorry if some expression here doesn’t work in english xD

I think they should give us a lot of options to do 5 points, and not be able to do 17points. That’s all

guys, all top550rank do all daily everyday, this is like about 17 – 20 points per day. Ask for anyone who do that if they are happy to do that, I prefer a hundred times to do liadri at hard mode, and be a smaller % of ppl do get that points. well, this if my opnion, you don’t need to agree with that.

I can’t believe Devs gonna put another daily in the game…..

Look your leaderboards and look how many points those players are making everyday…

There is a competition to be on top, I spend 4hours per day to do all daily, this is boring and sux, but I want to do because I want to do more points that other players, this is enough , don’t put more daily at the game before you remove some others.

Sorry if you don’t agree, but I’m doing all daily past 5months and I’m still on 516rank. So I know what it is do all daily everyday, do living world and try to get some time to have fun.

PLZ, don’t put more daily at the GAME, PLZ!!!

ps: sorry about my english. English isn’t my main language.

We need a solution, some server are impossible to play…. 40×40 players, the server ask for water

any idea?? I need to finish all my daily!!

It’s sad but true.
Same here!!!!

Don’t let this post die. Really good ideas

Don’t let this post die

That’s the point guys, everyone wants to be competitive and everyone want to enjoy the game too, so why don’t remove all extra points and keep the varieties(choices)?

and If you think…
“oh..if you remove this points, how someone can be the top100, or top10?”
Put hard content, then those who are motivated can do achievs that will be hard do complete, But I hate the idea that we need to do all daily every day.

Maybe we should think about it and try to find a solution.

One thing is certain, it’s annoying the way it is!!!

I agree with you, and I say more. I think achiev points at this moments it`s ridiculous pointless.

And I feel tired to do that, I really want to do more things in the game, but this competition isn’t funny, I still doing that because I put focus on my mind.

At the moment I have 11150 points.

883 Mixistrike.7840 11147 Sanctum of Rall

There is about 18 points per day to do daily. It is INSANE.
18×30 = 540 points per month. I think they should give you a chance to get 5 options to do 5 points playing whatever you want, wxw or pve stuffs, or dungeons or pvp.

I become a hardcore player because I need to stay in game doing all daily, because I want to be competitive on leaderboard . Some days I spend about 4h to complete all daily.

So, I really enjoy if they change this things, but if they don’t I’ll keep doing that, because achiev points is the hard endurence content ever.

PS: Sorry about my english, isn’t my main language!!!!

Patrikan Habaton.2548 you should post about this on the forum like you did, but just about the daily.

I think you right about leaderboard without daily. It`s really sux on the way it is.

I didn`t do this, because I don`t speak english that well,and it isn`t my main language.
and what do you think about we have options to do just 5 points per day?
— —

Guys, even with achievs like they did at last patch, ( edit: gamble on data-mined ), timers will be awwwwwwesome.
ps: I know it`ll be hard to set a new table on SQL, but think about it, PLZ DEVs =)

I really like many of your ideas, really cool. But I think achiev points at this moments it`s ridiculous pointless. There is about 18 points per day to do daily. It is INSANE.
18×30 = 540 points per month. I think they should give you a chance to get 5 options to do 5 points playing whatever you want, wxw or pve stuffs, or dungeons or pvp.

I become a hardcore player because I need to stay in game doing all daily, because I want to be competitive on leaderboard . Some days I spend about 4h to complete all daily.

PS: amazing ideas about timers on dungeons btw

ps: I`m not inside the game, my friends tell me about the daily before the reset, so I missed anyway.

The question is, if you don`t have time, and still want to be competitive, you do all daily done before you log out, and at this time, you do all daily, BUT, the anet put new daily before the reset, so those ppl even know they lose points, because when you logout you saw all daily done, but isn`t true like always new patch comes out.

So, why put new daily before the world reset?? Put after and everyone will know about it.

I know that i`m crying, but I don`t think this is fair.

Why you put new daily before the world reset? I do all daily everyday, and you insist to put new daily after I did all daily, put the new daily after the world reset. If you keeping doing that, at least put after the reset daily one day early....

Ridiculous!!!

If you can’t play as soon as new patch came, you lost those points.

THERE IS a competition between the achievers. Think about it!!!

PS: Sorry about the text, English isn’t my main language

I saw these thread, but it was mentioned just master bubble, didn’t tell about the master secret.

Hey devs, you should consider making some things, thinking that some players have latency greater than 100ms

I have 160ms of latency and I just can’t get the hidden room number 6

because I should press W but the response time isn’t enoght

…..

Yeah =(

another good idea!!!

Thanks guys to understand my point, and thanks for the awesome ideas.

Kincaidia.3192:

I think this deserves a red-name response.

Kindaidia.3192:

At the end of the day, we should be able to retrait, especially in a still-unfinished environment where new skills are being added.

That is it

I’m sure about what I’m doing, but I wanted to change, simple like that, I didn’t make any mistake, just wanted to change.

and there is another variant, they are putting skills at the game…

so, some day will I have all mastery?

Because my problem is, I change the goal of my character and now I can’t back all points that I learned until now.

are you fine with these?

ps: ( sorry, english isn’t my main language )

Heys guys, why can’t we reset world ability points??

Hey guys, anyone knows how to farm this chickets? Killing boss and get the chest at Crown Pavilion is too slow.

Thx, cya!!!

same problem here!!!

Guys, I did tier 2 before tier 1, and now I can’t get this achiev, what can I do?

I have the same problem!!!!

I have the same problem, I report this bug at the interface in game and nothing so far.
Plz, help us
