Guild Wars 2

Why couldnt anet make this f2p model for a few months only, and not ‘forever’?
They only purpose is to get people buy the x-pack, so why not just use this system a few months before+after hot release?… Would be much smarter, and there wouldnt be many upset people, like myself. (And older, veteran players would feel less betrayed aswell.)

Serbianwolf.1652:

I absolutely hate this change, and I can not express amount of my hate toward ANET’s policy tonight and toward this specific free-to-play change.

I haven’t expected this announcement to be so fkd up and devastating.
But ANET did it like they always do.

This means GW2 failed as mmo, as any other that switched to F2P policy shortly after(TERA, TESO etc…). It failed because there was no end-game content in the time to entertain us vetarns, but there where made unnecessary changes to whats not broken(TP, NPE, STORY CHANGES, INVENTORY, UI).

This means that developers will receive less money hence new players will be 10 year old whining kids that will resent everyone around and poison the community.

I, who played GW2 since the very start, for 3 YEARS AND INVESTED QUITE AMOUNT OF TIME AND REAL MONEY INTO GW2 ADDITIONALLY , only to get ugly looking skin on my charr(which has worst armors out there) and middle finger in my face saying:

THANK YOU FOR INVESTING YOUR TIME AND MONEY IN US, ALL WE CAN DO IS GIVE YOU THIS SKIN. NO GEMS, NO SPECIAL ITEMS NOR ABILITY TO DECIDE WHAT I COULD CHOSE AS 3YEARS OLD GIFT + VETERANSHIP.

But hey, thanks for your money. Thank you for buying infinite SAB coin that you will never use again. Because you guys bought this game we decided to make it FREE TO PLAY so 10 year olds could join. Lets not make it even 10, no, 5 bucks. But nope, NO refunds or kitten given whatsoever.

We can expect much more toxic community , economy fall and above and community driven by 10 year olds. Thanks ANET.

DO YOU EVEN KNOW HOW I FEEL AFTER 3 YEARS OF LOVE WITH THIS GAME?

I feel so betrayed. So brutally FUC**D. All this love toward this game.. all gone….

TL;DR: Just another ex-fan that feels fkd by latest change of ANET. RIP GW2, you will be missed.

Bonobo.1470:

My only concern about this decision is, usually f2p areas/servers are hell in other games. Lots of immature behaviour, which makes serious players rush into paid accounts or member servers. The only problem is, we can’t do that, since f2p is mixed with paid accounts. The only option would be to hide in HoT area after the release, but I also would love to do my daily world bosses without having to deal with “f2p scum”.

Totally agree with you, speically the last 2 words

BrooksP.4318:

Limited scenarios in which this would be useful, open for abuse, slippery slope, etc. The restrictions are fine, and could actually be limited further with WvW.

With www, pvp, dungeons, and decrease max lv to 60.!

NO, NO, NO, NO AND NO!

At least dumb anet could made this f2p thing 3months long, then players who like the game would buy it, those wou not can go away, and not play…

F2p is healthy for the game? Ahh, thats the worst joke i ever heard)

Hello!

So i thought that we should strike and stop playing untill anet takes the f2p mode back.
Anyone interested?:)

Can someone from anet explain this DUMB and UNREASONABLE move please?-.-

“Thief has no range”
Well I didnt know shortbow and pistol are melee weapons :/

2, Why does every class need range? Thief got million gapclosers….

These QQ topics are starting to get annoying… If you spent even 300-400+gold for a dye, you are stupid, if you didnt, then get a dye you like and be happy, no need to start 500topics about it.

I mean the ranked pvp points, which got a leaderboard, i will you loose points after a lost game there

Can i have – rank points in pvp, or 0 is the lowest i can get?

Thanks, i will wait for the ones i need then

If i reach the max level in PvP, do i still get a rank-up chest if i level up again?

There is a huge problem, when people dont see any problem in GvG fights in WvW modes…. And i would like to ask every GvG hater to interfer with the GvG battles, just to ruin they ruining of the game mode :P

Ahh, perfect, thanks….

Hello!

So im suggesting/hoping that there will be a separate game mode for GvG, because these annoying guild are really ruining WWW…
I just went on a map, and there were 2-3 GvG fights going on, nothing else.. AND THIS IS T1…
I always try to interfere when i see a GvG, but +1 person doesnt really matter so yeah… they are annoying-.-

Regards.

Thanks:D

There are these weapon skins for the black lion ticket sometimes, and there are always new sets. Will every set return to the game to purchase with tickets ever again? Or its just 1time and then you can only get it from the TP?

Oh lol, thats the only way they can defeat us
At least deso is still not 1.

Hello!

I didnt have much time since the reset, i just checked the rankings, and i see that SFR is 3. with a huge disadvantage, could anyone explain what happened?:O

Regards.

So the stats my armor have which i wear doesnt matter in pvp?:O

Few more questions.

1,If i want to get every exclusive reward from gw1, titles, max AP, special pet, mini skins etc… which expansions should i buy? All of them?
2,Will ls2 stay after hot release? Someone told me it wont..
3,I want to use free camera, but since my A-D buttons are not turn left-right , but walk left-right, the left click was my only way to turn while running, now if i use free camera, i cant do that anymore… any tips?

I might be blind, but only found weapon stats on that site, but nothing for armors :/

Thank you, thats also helpful but i meant the armor set builds, like berserker, soldier etc.

Oh, okay :/ Thanks.

A last question for a while if i dont ask for too much.
Could someone write the possible/viable sets for each class? (with name+stats if possible, since i dont know most of it :/ ) I know that berserker is the meta, but there sure have to be some more viable builds for the classes, if they want to go a but more defensive. I would like them only for PvP atm, since im pretty squishy and useless with my zerker thief, since im not that experienced yet. (Im also planning to play other classes on PvP so thats why it would be nice for every class.). For PvE and WWW im fine with the zerker, since im unlikely to die in a 100+ zerg (SFR) on www, and for pve zerker is the most effective, to do dungeons and open world content so thats not a prob.

Well in my opinion, ele, necro, thief, warrior, maybe mesmer and ranger too got nice condition damages (if built that way). Well if it fits your playstyle more, a power-precision-condi damage might be as good as a berserker (power-precision-ferocity) one.

Thanks, now my only problem is that everytime i try to log-in that anet panel comes with my account info, and there is no way that i could go back to the leaderboards…. and if i do, then im logged off again… it is really annoying that i cant stay loged in the website, is there any way to do it?-.- And how to check my infos, if i cant log-in to the leaderboards?:/

Okay, thanks i will stop playing ranked then.
What is this leaderboard, and where can i check it?

Yeah, but if i get a nice looking one, i would use it on more charas just for the skin Spending a trans. charge because its soulbound is my problem, not that its hard to get :/

Some questions about pvp: Are the gamemmodes always the same, or they are chaning by time? Because once i played an unranked deathmatch game, and now every unranked is that kill the enemy lord thingy.

Also in ranked, are there any tips how to capture the points, when to go for which one effectively?

Oh, i see thanks.

I know that legendary/ascended weapons are not soulbound, only acc bound after equip, so why are many exotic items soulbound on use?

Thanks

What determines WWW colours of each server? I thought its by ranking, but now my server, SFR which won the last 3, turned into red from green suddenly, why?

Ohhh thats why…. i was wondering for quite a while about this sPvP…xDD
Yeah i know open world is easy, but i meant that if there is still a different build for that and dungeons.
Thanks for the answer

Sorry for the doublepost again…
So new questions…
1, I noticed the builds for pve and www are different. Now the question is, how many different builds are there? Does PvE involve every single PvE, involving dungeons? And is there a seperate one for pvp? So pve, www, pvp is that it?

2, How can i play a sPvP, (how to get there, since i cant play it from the pvp map- heart of the mists?) and whats the difference between that and ranked pvp?

So if the max is 29k~ Ap, why are there AP rewards listed on the wiki till 60k AP?xD
https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Achievement_rewards

Thanks for every answer, the items were sold by amazon and i ordered it.
Now this made me have another question, since for some reason i couldnt get a 3year warranty offer from amazon, since they dont ship that to hungary… (what do you need to ship on a warranty contract, just send it via email… :’D anyways..) so my question is;
How much warranty does the logitech G600 mouse have, and is it still “on” the product if its ordered from amazon?
(I heared its 3years, but didnt see it on any official website)

Thanks for both answers. Well i didnt even know that there are cultural weapons, so an extra thanks for you MasterJedi

Thanks for the answers
@Xiahou Mao I didnt mean that, i meant that on the wiki page there were 3 different colours given for 1 single dye, but now i know why.

Another question; If i unlock e.g a norn cultural armor skin with a norn, can i apply it with transmutation charges with an other race? (same type e.g: medium-medium)

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Flare_Dye
this one for e.g but i saw it at a few others too

Sorry for the doublepost…
I saw a dye on the gw2 wiki, and at its colour there were 3 colours… Why is that?:O

Thanks for the answers. I was just worried a bit, because of how cheap it was, and i didnt know why is it worth it for them, but okay then

Hello!

Sorry for the topic, but im planning to get a logitech g600 mouse, and while its 80$ on logitechs site, it is only 39$ on amazon.. is it a fake, or something? Or why is it so cheap?

Regards.

Thanks for the detailed answer, i changed Hidden Killer to No Quartel after all, because i wont be stealthing that much anymore.
Well i used 1 as for the top one, 2for the middle and 3 for the bottom trait. So trill of the chrime-bountiful theft- quick pockets for trickery.

Edit:I also used improviastion for a long time, but because of its randomness i decided to change it for Executinore, which is a nice DPS boost to finish enemies.

For thiefs, is the dungeon build viable for open world pve too?
I use: critical strikes: 2-2-2 (because 100% crit after stealth is op :P)
deadly arts: 2-3-3
trickery:3-1-1
And signet of malice, smoke screen (dungeons)-or binding power(solo open world) or shadow refugee (utility) with assasins signet and signet of agility.
Elite is usually thiefs guild, but sometimes dagger storm.
Weapons: d/d is always in, and sword/pistol usually in open world and shortbow for dungeons, but it depends on situation aswell.

(or im doing it totally wrong?)

Thanks i will keep selling them

2more questions

1, how can we get spirit shards after HoT release?
2,If my xp bar fills after 80, do i get the spirit shard automatically?

Nah its my fault:D I tired it and its really better thanks. Another question xD
I get many rare items from world bosses, should i sell them for 30-40silvers on the tp, or should i use them in the mystic forge?

2.If i get a dye which i already unlocked, then i cant ‘use’ that up again right?

Thanks for all the answers, i will try out strifing then. Just, what is RMB and LMB?xD
And sorry i wanted to write gift of mastery. http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Gift_of_Mastery
Okay then i will just play every weapon set i find fun, and stick to the one i have most succes with.

Could be that… personally i wasnt there, but everyone said it was bugged in the map chat, so i assumed it was a bug

Oh, got it thanks

2more questions: 1, i saw it on the wiki that ‘gift of fortune’ an item for legendary needs world rank 14 to do, why is that?
2,Is there any significant difference between turn left/right or strife left/right? Personally i like the turn with the forward button and the mouse rotation better, but i could learn the strife, if its more efficient, or better to use.

3, I know that each class got some better weapon options in each mode (pvp, www, pve) but there are more viable options, according to playstyle right? Like e.g warrior pvp got at least 2-3 decent weapon combination, depending on skills and playstyle, same for warrior www, it got another 2-3 etc? Or im wrong, and usually there is 1 best weapon build?

Oh okay, but nowadays you can unlock all of them, and i still used to see people writing that thats why i asked xD thanks

Good point, but if A and B would be better, everyone would use C and D at some point, untill they get A or B.

One thing i dont get: I used to see builds on the forum like: 0/10/30/30/0
What do these stand for? If these are the traits, why arent there 3x 30 and 2×0? Since you can only use 3 trait lines, but you use it all. Or it means sth else?

Im new to the game, and im still very bad, might come back once i get experience :P
