Guild Wars 2

I mean I’d say for those who have the mask give them the outfit for free, refund them, or make it different, glowing eyes or something?

I like pupi’s Idea lol

@Xenon I can see what you mean, A-Net would want it to be polished as possible which would take quite some time, and in fact putting the release of a dungeon path in late July early August.
@StinVec Being the first person I’ve seen that any prestige at all is not a want I’ll edit that part just for you!
@Randulf I also can see what you mean, when combine with Xenon, If they were to do a single Dungeon “The A-Net way” would take a lot more resources and make HoT pushed back or to late of a release of the path to be efficient. I do like the idea though.

I recall someone saying it was hard coded and not an easy task in gw2’s case. Cannot remember who said such thing though.

As said, I am a game designer, and after rereading my first post, it is aware to me it seems all dungeons at once, however, I meant one at a time. Thank you for bringing that to my attention.

I feel stripping one art, level, concept, audio designer and two programmers from the project, which I personally don’t feel everyone at A-Net is working on it all at once. Then have them form a team and either during work hours or paid overtime, depending on how desperate they want this done and back on track, start working one dungeon path, one dungeon at a time.

They wouldn’t have to be completely new or have “HoT Mechanics”. Just “reskinned” and “shuffled” dungeons with new rewards I feel would be enough to fool the Community who aren’t as design-oriented until August.

I’d like some AFK animations that sounds cool, especially the meditating one.
But generally isn’t the sleep/sit animations fitting for that purpose of afk animation?

@Xenon, I am aware of production scope and time. The second HoT Was announced I knew exactly the time frame they’d think on releasing it. And I am aware of their busy schedules. But to come up with a bunch of Ideas, instead of dismiss them is the point of the thread, as it will be sent to them and they can decide if they want to do any of them, or spark their own ideas. I for one gain a lot of thoughts and ideas of my own by seeing other ideas.

From a designer standpoint it would be really hard to code something to re-code the game to change something that is set into the game like stone.
I hope that makes sense, I tried to keep it simple but was hard to explain.

Adam and Eve aren’t a thing in gw2 so that isn’t relevant, but the Gods are and they magic the clothing on.

Does anyone have any thoughts?
So far we have dungeons and new dungeon skins, suggested by myself. Adventures in Vanilla maps, suggested by MrWubzy. And a collector NPC for reward goodies, suggested by Inculpatus cedo.

Anet – please look: http://swalsh81.github.io/gw2improvedwallet/

I’ve already shown them that link in my post about Wallet Improvement back in April.

@MrWubzy This can be content already in the game or something you can think up of, sorry if this wasn’t clear. I thought my example would have cleared that up.

Come one come all!
Let us brainstorm some ideas real factual ideas to be placeholder content for gw2 until HoT comes out. I’d like this to be content that would be permanent. In example not an event that goes away. Let me get this started as an example for my own idea.

As we are all aware Gemstore/Black Lion Weapon and Armour(outfits) skins are a lot better then the skins made on release. Dungeon skins are something that add pseudo-prestige to ones character, and let’s face it prestige is what most of us want in an MMO. But now the game is where, because of time or pvp tracks, many players now have these skins and there is no prestige from these items anymore.

But it would be just a boring grind if we have to just do the same thing we’ve been doing. So the second solution fixes that. Which is to add more dungeon paths. Lore friendly and current events friendly paths into the game.

This doesn’t have to be three paths per dungeon, but should be at least one per dungeon. And does not have to be all at once either. After the paths are added I think they should add another set of armor and weapons priced at an additional 1000 tickets needed. Granted this would be pointless with the people who have saved up thousands of tokens or so from playing dungeons paths for gold. I think Arena Net should think of another way to do this or make it a new set of tokens from these paths themselves.

The way I see these paths being added is similar to the Aetherblade path, an NPC is added to the dungeon opening a new path into the dungeon, at level 80.

Let me know what you guys think of this idea or your own idea. Please no SAB comments.

Topic TL:DR
Come up with new or reused content to place hold HoT until it is released.

Example TL:DR
Add new dungeon paths based on lore or current events, being mordy the tendril dragon, and add new dungeon skins for a larger possible new currency.

UPDATE: The following are the total suggestions so far.
1.Dungeon Path-Doable but would be a close call to release of HoT anyway.
2.Revamp a map, South Sun cove, with new and more fun events.
3.Revamp the Shatterer, or even Jormag, world boss to lost until the release.
4.Add more Lost coins to other maps.
5.Scavenger Hunt for a new weapon or armor set in the game.
6.Pavilion
7. WvW Tournament
8. Revamp more vanilla map event to be multi staged events.

Lyssa Please! Goddess of Hotness. wait… do you see it? HOTness. release on HoT release please.

Probably will be non exposive and boring on males though.

That’s okay, women are a thing. and Lyssa is such.

Sorry Dulfy, not hiRes enough for me, I need at least 16k Textures for hiRes.

Love the shield though Might actually pick it up for an engi.

I made 5 characters 10 minutes into the games pre-release. and 13 more between the first three years of the game being out.

Lyssa Please! Goddess of Hotness. wait… do you see it? HOTness. release on HoT release please.

Plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz x9001
I want the beta log in screen so badly.

Wuselknusel.4082:

You are forgiven, if you tell the devs that the Ranger sword autoattack is rubish for PvE and should be altered.

What he said.

First off, getting a 1920×1080 Monitor will make it look nicer already.
Second getting DDR3 6/8 GB RAM is a NEED
Getting a CPU with at LEAST 4 cores and at min 3.0ghz speed will help.
a 7k Radeon or R9 series GPU will help boost FPS as well. or the equvilent to Nvidia.

Overall I’d just get a new PC.
because with new ram and CPU with a OLD pc would mean a new motherboard, new gpu and cpu will need new PSU. higher tech gets hotter and will need new fans.

This is in view of running gw2 at max 1080p resolution.

Very minor suggestion but I like it! perhaps add all non superior runes and sigils to the Junk category as well?

I’d like to apologize to the people on the pve side of the forums for my sudden hiatus. I had a lot of preparation to do for my next semester at college and completely forgot to mention it to everyone else.

I’d love some wraith like sounds.

Thief: Rogue. Sword offhand. Very mobile and dps.
I’d like to see that.

Complete all dungeon story and explore on all characters?
Why not right?

Nice start, very good question, just what will the fall into for their niche. Right now the necromancer is a undesirable Powerhouse for either raw damage or Conditions. How will the Reaper be any different?

The things I saw were stronger AoE/Cleave and Condition Pressure. Greatsword and shouts I believe are a nice touch, but how will strong Chill effect the game.

I feel because even with increased power the condition part will be revamped in HoT. Thus making it significantly stronger. But then Scepter/Focus will be even stronger and making that pointless for the Reaper.

So where DOES this fit into? Maybe the Reaper can apply lots of hard CC to remove defiance stacks quickly, making viable in world events?

I’ll see what I can do.

I’d like if we could get some real feedback, suggestions, and concerns on the new Necromancer Specialization.

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Reaper

There is the link to the wiki page that sums up the article: https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/meet-the-reaper-necromancers-elite-specialization/

To start it off; I’d like to see some GW1 necro put into the Reaper. We got some shouts that deal damage, could we get a shout that deals X% of your HP for each enemy hit, dealing X% damage to each, with an additional effect, be it 100% crit chance or healing per % damage hit.

Now that I’m not busy with classes and finals I can become more active, I plan on making more of these; if they are successful. So lets get a nice list I could send to Arena Net before HoT is out and maybe some of it can actually go into the game! Direct feedback is nice isn’kitten

These are some good concerns, but I have faith in Arena Net for the amount of work going in the next twelve months.
I feel necro’s After HoT will be wanted when in the Reaper specialization. They will have lots of cleave and heavy hits.
And with how exciting the new HoT content will be I have faith that will bleed into Vanilla game and then once it is all to HoT standards they will improve it from there.
There are lots of new boss mechanics coming into the Expansion pack, Imagine how the dungeons will be with these mechanics.

Oh boy this is an old thread. I’d LOVE to see the rest of the god outfits added into the game. Lyssa outfit next please. <3

On the off topic, we specialists are allowed to say our opinion. We aren’t mindless drones, that’s Google. We point to the General conclusion of a thread, not our preference. If I think something is a waste of time and all other 20 posts are all in agreement to add something. That report will be telling the developers to add it to the game.
The reason for my first post, is simply because they have a plan for what is going to be in HoT, and I’ve been specifically told by a producer, " what would you rather have, a lot of QoL changes, or some amazing things in HoT" this was paraphrased of course. Every thing is a push and pull when it comes to doing things. If they spend time to add the check box idea(#6) that is a day or two a programmer isn’t working on HoT.

An idea is simple on paper, and even easier in thought. But when it comes to design or development(programming) it isn’t as simple. Lots of testing and attention is needed. That is wanted else where at the moment.

Lastly as I mentioned. I would keep an eye on this, and would continue to do so if anyone wishes to give more examples of “simple” changes.

If I have offended anyone with my first post, it was not my intention to do so, and my apologizes for doing so.

Our job is simply to see what your guys and ladies are saying, and send it to the developers. We don’t need to talk for that, if one chooses not to. I believe a new specialist is under review for a new position as a replacement.

I could imagine some ways to bring it into the game. But a lot of requirements would be needed.

Now this is what I call feedback. I’ll forward this in the next day or two if anyone else has some points they want made.

Not to many useful suggestions that I can see, since a lot of them are boring QoL changes. But I’ll keep an eye on this forum.

with a mix of restarting pc and updating it, and the VIPRE exception add it finally works.

My girlfriend is currently having this problem, she also has VIPRE, If I figure it out I’ll let you know.

I’d love to see some more great feedback like the first two posts, and I’m sure the devs would too.

I’d love to see the alt tab thing work too, the mouse part I didn’t have a huge problem with.

The Balthazar Outfit, Ahar Heavy armor legs, T3 Norn Cultural heavy armor, and one more I believe all have butt capes.

I remember talking with Roy, I brought it up, a simple “oh boy/oh no..” response was given, it made my week.

I’d hate to see them add a condition heavy class and not fix conditions. That would be a shame.

I don’t think there are too many faces that show the Canthan resemblance in my opinion. Especially not our dear Shiro.

Also BFMV ban reference with the name?

For Lore friendly-prerecorded shouts with the Z key or something (Anyone get the reference? xP ) I’m okay with that. I’d also be okay with something similar to /rank where you could type /shout and you’d get the character shout then, this /rank feature also has a cooldown, and if they still seem to spam it perhaps a suppression in chat?

I notice you recently installed Apple Software. That is your first mistake x)
In terms of Log in dailies, a lot can factor into it, for example some people whom were logged in to soon close to the update for log in dailies are behind a day for some unknown reason. Whether or not they fixed that I haven’t noticed. Not logging in will also put you behind.
I know that my girlfriend and myself are almost half a month apart in log in dailies, she just got her loyalty chest from March yesterday. How ever if you were on log in 22 or something and got a account rollback/restoration for some reason and are now on log in 14. Please contact Customer Support once more with clarification.

This is interesting concept, I"ll keep an eye on this.

I believe slowly but surely they will have them all out, Then maybe a whole living story about the Gods coming back and we can support them by wearing the outfits to get a boon or something! wishful thinking.

It Looks like they are increasing visuals for HoT release. or they just have a very very nice computer to showcase it.
Hypetrain maybe?

I’d just get immersed with it. for example from some of my characters.
Garruk Bonebreaker, Charr warrior.
Lyssa Cereous – Human Elementalist.
Warden Euan – Sylvari Ranger.

Charr – their “last names” are a clan name ____breaker, ____Ember, ____Borne.
Sylvari – Are mostly Celtic names.
Norn – Usually the “last name” is following an ancestors name or a title and the first name is mostly nordic, mostly. Braham Eirsson(Son of Eir), Feya The Strong, a name and title.
Human – Various cultures with a first and last name.
Asura – They have a name with double letters, and a egotistical title usually.
Vaak, Zojja, Biiz the insane. for example.

Mix it up and find some generators for names to give you examples of a combination of letters.

I’d love to have some go away, like the Jotun trader one.

But there was costumes like that in gw1.
http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Agent_of_Balthazar
http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Grenth_Costume
http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Dragonguard

I for one am happy my Guardian Norn can wear a cloth based outfit.
Or my Mesmer Charr can wear an Armor Imperial armor set.
