Guild Wars 2

Screw you guys, we are going Wow

dude, he one shots some of my teammates so what are you saying?

Nahilas.4319:

Who the kitten do you think you are!? Are you seriously suggesting terminating employees because YOU disagree with ingame changes!? Thats just offensive!

They lied to us!!! And we are not idiots like rest of you, someone has to pay! I’m only sorry cause i can’t get money back from my country

Quit the game, like any other real GW2 fan.
This is not waht they said it will be.

And what should i do now? Play other dungeons that are still bugged and now even less players do them? Playing in zones that have 5-10 players on them? This has really destroyed the game

eisberg.2379:

orrrrr, just realize that as long as you passed the dungeon in a reasonable amount of time, that it doesn’t matter. Really, does it matter if you save 5 minutes in a dungeon if someone has more damage because of using a different stat other then MF.

It is just a game, don’t take it so seriously, min/maxing is not needed. Having 1 less stat that adds 5 minutes is negligible.

Just wear some MF gear, it will cause very little difference in the dungeon other then some better rewards.

Wearing MF gear at Lupicus means you will probably die, and if someone ress you it’s good chance for wipe, so it adds wipes there, not “5 min more”. Your reply?

Team Fortress 2!!! I like that system (if it haven’t change in last few months)

And i’m at diff 5 with necro, survived 5 times more then warrior and guardian in my team (MF gear probably) and then i got BOOOOOORED

And CoF path 3 isn’t teamwork? and how many players are doing it? other dungeons are teamwork more then FoM, and FoM is pretty easy if you have brain, it’s just so hard for some guys to learn it so it seems like super smart thing

Just put max cap on MF (team), it’s simple realy

Runes of Magic is much better grinding game then this

I actually enjoy FotM, running with guildies and having a blast trying to figure out the quirks of every little map. I enjoy having the different maps and all the programming that anet had to do to put this into place, and this is how far into the release of this game? 3 months, I cant wait to see what they have 1 – 5 years down the line… to all those that are saying “oh im quitting, because of blah blah blah”, have fun with your next game. The long time players will be here, just like most of us were there for GW1 that long time between GW1 and GW2.

Dude, some REAL dungeons are still bugged as hell, and thsi is how far into the release of this game? 95% players that wanted this are noobs that couldn’t do any real dungeon
Kill Lupicus and then you will see good dungeon

Avatar.1923:

omg… this look like an AA meeting.
this thread needs a psycologist.

i played 175h of GW2.
i’m level 73.

i love the game.

and if the game give me 300h total ?
its still gonna be an amazing game.

i think some people should question their own attitude toward a “game”.

and welcome back to GW2 if you ever feel like it. ill need some people to run dungeons with! i havent done any explo path yet.

And some explorer paths you probably won’t
You will see why are we complaining and joins us then

Shiren.9532:

If I did quit GW2 over the loot issues, I wouldn’t go back to GW1. I made sure I did everything I wanted to in it before GW2 launched. I decided a while back MMOs aren’t really my thing, the grind, the gear chasing, the RNG and general focus on this concept of progression and not the player experience. I value my time and the illusion of fun and a satisfying experience created by grind and loot is something I consider to be a waste and on par with a life spent in front of the pokies. I’d rather play a game which offers a quality experience and satisfying content that I enjoy because it’s fun and challenging, not because I had to run it 50 times to get the gear I wanted.

I genuinely thought GW2 was breaking the mold but it seems they are shifting so much back into mainstream norms and are becoming more of the same rather than the innovative and progressive MMO they promised they would be. If I do leave GW2 I will do so with the firm belief that ArenaNet failed to deliver on what they set out to do. I don’t believe another MMO any time soon will do so, this feels like a set back for the genre, and so I will just be done with the genre.

EXACTLY what i’m thinking!

They increased the rate of acquiring pretty much all the materials. While I agree that legendaries should be difficult to get, they were encouraging rather obsessive behavior as far as acquiring the materials. What this shows is that they’re willing to allow progression from more play styles. I bet ascended gear will not be limited to the extreme end of the fractal grind. That doesn’t fix the current problem with fractals, though (and hopefully they will fix the fractured player base sooner rather than later).

Tell me, how did any of their changes to Legendary acquisition change the number of ways the components could be acquired ?
All I see is that you can get them quicker. I don’t see any new methods to acquire them.

But I also see that Ascended gear was launched with exactly one way to get it. Thus closing off all other paths from getting max stat gear. A major reduction in options.

So I see this as a net reduction in options.

Karma acquisition doesn’t require such blatant grinding (the addition of the vials and bags). Many of the materials also do not require obsessive grinding either. Yes, you still need to run dungeons to get the requisite gift (but that is much easier these days). They also added some ways to get materials by running fotm (although that is problematic due to the current state of fotm lfg). They’ve stated they’re going to open up more paths for legendaries and progression in general. So yes, you need to take their word at that.

How is it easier? some dungeons are locked cause noone wants to do event and it was hard to find group for some paths before, now is near impossible!
Oh yea, they bug even more, so they give you 1 dungeon and take 8

Use magic find, maybe you will find it faster! XD

…

My thoughts exactly. I haven’t thought about this MF is shared idea, but it’s certainly viable.

Also I understand that there are new MF sets out there, but that still doesn’t help the fact that they contribute less than those who don’t use them, and still get better loot for it.

It has to be an equal share, not an averaged amount spread across all players.

If you take magic find and only spread the average to each player, you will now find groups that require you to have a certain number of Magic Find. This happened in Diablo III.

If Magic Find is to be shared, it has to be shared equally to all players. One player has 200 magic find, all players should have 200 magic find.

The person using magic find is sacrificing a stat and requiring the group to make up for what they lack, why not have their MF apply to all group members.

This is not bad idea.

All these guys saying MF is good in dungeon didn’t do Arah and all others that are against are good players looking for other good players for most challenging DUNGEONS (not this FoM whatever). That’s basicly it.

Karizee.8076:

My experience is the same as yours – everyone in game loving it, then a vocal minority bashing on the forums.

It’s called forum sabatoge.

Thirty people can really make a mess of a forum. Or 3 people with 10 accounts each

A certain big name game that is feeling very threatened by GW2’s popularity certainly has the budget to buy a few games and pay a couple peeps to go gamebashing on their forums.

My advice is to ignore it and focus on the game you love with the other millions of people loving it.

That certain big name game is now being copied here and I don’t like that game, I loved this one till 2 weeks ago, hate it now, hope it will get better. I complain for attention, attention of Arenanet so they can make this game better.

Aaron.4807:

I have been playing NBA2k13 but this whole thing has dampened my enthusiasm for gaming in general.

I might check out Elderscrolls but will probably not play it.

Firefall was mentioned, maybe I will give that a shot.

2k13 it is
you don’t need new shoes there XD

Sadly, if you can’t grind often, this game isn’t for you.

They should have told me that before i bought it, not lying to us. There are other game with are better if grinding is all you do.

I encourage you to get a refund. It is very easy to get one on the grounds that the game is not what was advertised at the time of purchase.

u are a big hater i can see it from your sign too..
btw i dont think there is nothing to complain here, it is still full of ppl needing the first lvls of fractals and this is just a normal progressing line NOT dependant from gear, just the lvl where u arrived.
it’s just more difficult now to find party cause it’s a new thing. but it is harder if u lvl up in difficulty (way harder).
about the “i cant see al content” i cant understand this statement.. i mean u can see the same fractals at lvl 1 or lvl 20, it is just a change in difficulty. do u want a game where good players or players that have more time cannot progress further or have nothing to do?

But can you see content on lower lvl maps now? It’s not the same like in 1st month and it never will, new players will not join this game, why whould they? if everyone is doing same dungeons they can just play some pure F2P grind MMO

Believe me, i would, but i’m in Serbia XD

Well month ago i didn’t now that you will have to grind 9 new mini “dungeons” to grind new gear so it makes it like wow, witch part i always hated.
I though there will be more people looking for challenge, doing dungeons just for fun (cause that’s a big part of MMO for me, you don’t really need fancy looking gear if you ask yourself) but now it’s hard to find groups and some dungeons have more bugs then ever. Also some 30-70 lvl maps have little ppl playing.

My bad, but i’m really pissed now cause this game was great month ago

Actualy it was meant for ODB.6891, didn’t quote it right sory
I don’t play much and i don’t grind for gold so i can buy some stupied skin for weapons (that’s what legendary is)
But i like that this game requires skills, spent some time learning it and now i want to do some chalenging dungeons, for fun believe it or not, i don’t care even if i lose gold.

All these people with lives should get together.

This is nice

Merthax.5172:

To OP: I’m simply going to work on leveling alts and avoiding the whole end-game gear grind altogether.

I would have expected to be playing this game for years, but it looks like it will just be a few months.

Same

Then people like you should lose income source and people who actually learn to play game and enjoy challenge can be awarded for doing harder dungeons.

This is not even a dungeon, they could have made 9 great dungeon and give us 1-2 every month, but no they create this, so now you just grind grind grind grind grind grind grind…
P.S. Anyone for Arah path 4? Didn’t think so
