Guild Wars 2

Ah cool so glad people reported this. Had real issues in JP, then watched 2 others fall at easy jumps. Something seemed up – I’m very glad I don’t have to blame my inept jumping on this one

Ill give this a thumbs up
Sure theres been issues, but the game is in its infancy and has so much potential. Ive thoroughly enjoyed playing the game and really looking forward most of all to seeing how the world evolves, with the Dragons and hopefully Cantha and Elona in the future.

My only regret is levelling too fast, but its been a long time sonce i found an mmo whete i wanted to make multiple alts!

Heres to a successful future!

The general idea was this would take a significant amount of time like a year or more to make so it wouldnt feel like a grind. Obviously some people have made a big grind for themselves and got one early, fair enough, but its not forced on us to do nor expected.

Having said that, its an interesting point. I see no reason why a pvp legendary couldnt be introduced, obviously as long as it wasnt a shortcut to the normal way. Maybe a combination of achievements, fort captures, badges etc. maybe combined with spvp too.

I loathe all forms of pvp, but clearly wvw from what i see attracts a sizeable community base. A second legendary path for those players seems a reasonable discussion point?

I wholeheartedly second Jezaths post! Maybe when we go into the depths to fight Primordius…

A dervish, scythe wielding quaggan! Totally a game winner!!

Would love to see ritualists return

I’d expect them to have plans for their cities, but yeah I’d like to see more in them. They put a lot of time and energy into some seriously beautiful cities (DR is just breathtaking) which as far as I can tell, the wider community appreciates and recognises. Give us an excuse to hang out there and we will!

Saw this on GW2 twitter.

A balanced review I thought that recapped the awful technical issues most players had, but also highlighted that where people were about to get through the content, is was enjoyable.

A video is attached for those (like myself) were on overflow servers that irrevocably broke and couldn’t finish phase 3, but wanted to see what the final boss was like

I enjoyed the event too, but you need be very careful about saying 95% players enjoyed it and 5% didn’t. It wasn’t that players didn’t enjoy it, it was that the vast majority COULDN’T enjoy it due to progression stopping bugs and lag on many servers – an issue which ANET themselves are acknowledging.

I’m not fussed about rewards, I’d have just liked to have seen it through, but it is at least nice to see that there are a few who were able to get an enjoyable expereince out of the weekend. ANd I REALLY enjoy the new dungeon – that for me outweighs the issues from the rest of the weekend. Oh and I like the look of the new zone – hopefully more will get added to it

Good news. Will anything happen for those who were in the event, but the escort bugged out and couldn’t therefore get to boss? was a widespread issue and not everyone was able to switch servers. (obv not asking for a boss chest, but a goodwill gesture of somesort)

I liked the idea and the dungeon has been awesome, in fact some of the best instances our guild has done in mmo’s – so Kudos to the team there from us.

I’m not going to harp on about the obvious flaws, I think you’ve got the gist of how badly it went wrong technically (our server coulnd’t finish phase 3 as it bugged out and unlike other mmo, there’s no live GM on hand to ask for a fix). I think it is worth trying to do these things in longer stages. A weekend didn’t fit for a rp scenario let alone a gameplaying one.

Maybe first stage 1 week with a " to be continued.."
Stage 2 could be another week but after a short gap to build interest
finale a weekend later down the line.

Gives that epic story feel of the lionguard fighting back and forth and you could have all sorts of mini DE’s running on the zone in between just to keep the mometum up.

I think someone summed it up best when they said your ambition outdid what you could achieve. Great idea, enjoyable content when it worked, but I really think we’d all enjoy the game just as much if things worked, even if they aren’t always groundbreaking everytime.

We decided to leave it and go dungeon in Fractals which is very good at least.

Good luck all. Hope some manage to finish!

Hey. Not sure if this is the right place (I have put in a bug report), but on our overflow the demolitions guy died, came back and now is stuck. Anything able to be done to fix?

PLease only helpful replies from community, plenty of other threads up for “feedback”

Possibly something they fixed with the patch. I wasn’t getting monthly updates either, but that now is updating correctly.
Quite liking the new area myself. Hope it is staying!

I share the sentiments that whilst an awesome game, the frustration at these events. A great idea in principle, but Halloween showed the problems around it, none of which seem to have been addressed. The problem, is it’s difficult to recommend the game when so much is broken and new content is coming in broken. The game is only 3 months old, no one is going to be mad at you guys for delaying content to fix other content first.

Love the game, not going to stop playing, but I second the requests for a repeat of this weekend
