Also, it’s funny seeing all of the people cry that they don’t want mounts…. use a waypoint if you want. Run if you want. Stop trying to hijack a good idea for a game company just because you are a crybaby.

Or, alternatively, stop trying to force your minority view on the majority of players. It was made clear from the start that there would be no mounts. Now stop being a crybaby because you could not be bothered to do any research before purchasing the game.

How can you say you have the statistics to say the idea of mounts comes from a “minority” of people?

I didn’t say anything about having statistics. I can however use the Search function – a concept completely alien to the pro-mount crowd, and the number of overwhelmingly negative posts about mounts outnumber pro-mount posts. It’s precisely this reason why a small number of people keep starting new threads each day with the same tired arguments in favour of mounts, i.e. “cuz they luk kool” and “cuz otha MMOs hav em”, whilst deliberately ignoring the reasons against such a feature (world design, game lore, etc).

Okay, apparently the “search engine” is also apparently “alien” to those who are against mounts as well. There are many, many posts(more than I’d like to share) on differant forums, on differant websites spread throughout the internet on people pro-opinion of mounts, so there goes “mounts are demanded by a minority” logic. Also game design? Imagine the broom stick with 33% speed increase; how is that game breaking? And LORE? pfft. As I said before " To all the people who say that its because of the lore that they dont want any mounts is frankly, a laughable excuse for a reason. If you lore-hounds where as crazy for the lore as you say you are, you would take in the reality of how the lore was designed; open ended and borderless so that new things can be implemented with ease. Therefore the only way a “lore issue” would come into effect is if they designed it so that it was a manuscript that confirmed everything down to the last detail, which incase you didn’t notice is exactly not how the Guild Wars lore was designed."

I actually like Trahearne’s character to be honest. He’s not the main character in my story, and it makes sense that he’s the leader of the Pact(He’s sylvari, he’s not of the three orders, it is his destiny to cleanse Orr).

I also like how high of a regard he holds me in Makes me feel special!

Activities like the choir and the jumping puzzle are near impossible for me, because of the lag during the events. Is there a way to fix this or am I just gonna have to deal with it?

Hey, for some reason in SPvP my armor color is blue when Im on the Red team, in both Tournaments and Regular. Also I notice that my armor when Im in the heart of mists, is the same color as in PvP matches.

Please look into this, Best Regards

I like this idea, and I think it would really work!

I still don’t understand it, or like the way it was executed…

Ya I never, ever chose anything to do with cunning, so ya XP

No its from the starter cinimatic, like I said in the OP

So its a glitched then?

Casue when I chose to align myself with the spirit of the bear, but chose a wolf for a pet, I was told how I follow the cunning of the wolf. Is this a glitch or does my pet define my story?

When underwater in Lions Arch, where ever I go I am always able to (when angling the camera a certain way) see through the floor, which is very irritating because it distorts me and I loose direction of where Im going.

A quick fix would be appreciated plz :P

When browsing through two-handed swords levels 80 to 80, I notice that when I click any of the tabs twice, it bugs out and removes all the items and when I try to refresh it, it displays the pinwheel for hours on end. Also, it doesn’t show any of the stats on any of the items. The only way to by pass this is to switch to gem store then back to Trading Post tab (except for the no stats on items thing)

Please fix this ASAP, as it is very hard to browse for good gear

Everyone, the thing we have to remember is; what the cure is for some, maybe poison to another. In every mmo out there you have both, regardless of what the dev’s say. Areananet added this content to give those at level 80 something to do, Nd though they new it would not be liked by everyone, they still had to try something. Does it work? In my opinion yes, most definatly though i wish there was a requirement in order to get in, like say " equipped all exotic gear" or something.

time will tell if this truely does work but rift started with record numbers and then focused on raiding and then came the server closing and so forth as most returned to other games they had more time invested in people are looking for a change in the same mmo formula Anet started with that idea and most wont stick around for what they were already getting in the game they left most of my friends and fellows gamers already went back after the patch I ll be spitting my time and funds if this continues to be the trend after all this is a free to play at the moment any way

Well if you’re going to focus on raiding, it better be an improvement of the raiding that’s already out there, or else they’re going to go back to the better raids. That’s why rift failed in that sense, they specifically targeted WoW’s players, but then WoW was the better designed game.

But yeah can design content that keeps that character advancement, keeps people having something to do without making it all about gear. But the thing to remember, we’re driven by rewards. If you need proof of that, I’ll be on later, all you bored 80s, come help me do all my quests and level. You won’t, because it does nothing for you.

That carrot is what keeps people logging into these games. It’s something that you want to work for, something you want to take the time on. Achievement hunting isn’t for everyone. Some people just don’t PvP…

The reason so many games use the gear grind, and why it’s so successful, is who doesn’t want to be more powerful?

There’s a time and place to be innovative, working systems like an EQ2 or WoW style endgame just isn’t the place for that. WIthout a grind, without a goal, you’re just not going to log on.

The game will last, I’m gonna keep playing it at least til 80, but it’s not going to have the success that’s going to make the developers the money. It’s a single player game with the option to group and have more mobs appear.

You took the word right out of my mouth there buddy!

Thanks for the support guys!

30 minuites is absolutely perfect in my opinion :P

Now I’ve had alot of issues with the dungeons of Guild Wars 2, due to there lack of fun and inbalances. However, having just finished a Twilight Arbor (story) run, I have to say my faith in dungeons has been restored. Specifically I am impressed with the addition of an increased drop rate in greens and yellows, and the addition of “Bags of Gold” (which I kitten love to death!). Also I noticed that bosses and regular elites are allot less glitchy/overpowered, though they can very easily kitten your face off XD.

Now of course I haven’t done the other dungeons yet, but I am so far very very happy with the changes. I figured it was time for some positive responses on this fourm, so once again Thank you for listening Arenanet!

To this day Im am disappointed about how there is no first person view option in Guild Wars 2, when it has first of all: Become the standard of most MMo’s, is key essential for bringing a community together through the use of Machinimas(Most popular MMO’s became popular because of Machinimas), is really needed for most if not all jumping puzzles and that with out a first person perspective, one cannot fully enjoy and appreciate the gorgeous environments that was so beautifully crafted by the artists of this game.

Now I understand that Collins is completely against first person view “as the player looses the appreciation for his or her character”, I have to say, with the amount of customization and cut scenes that are in this game, the fact that we cannot have a first person view because we have to “appreciate” our character more, is a little bit obnoxious. Don’t you think?

My god, do you know how many mount suggestions there are? XD Though I dont agree with all what your saying with how mounts should be added, I still agree on the general point that they should be added.

*hint *hint Arenanet?

We already have a trinity: Damage, Control, Support. But I think the idea of raids is sourly missed, and frankly seeing as how many people are there when dragons spawn, i don’t think it would be game breaking at all. If anything, it would give more content to level 80’s that’s specifically design for Them.

Wow 110 views and no reply’s?

Every couple of days/weeks(havent been keeping track) I log on and find one or two of my items are missing. Specifically transmutation stones and a few crafting materials. I had a full bank when I last logged in, and when I checked my bank, over half of my crafting items where missing, and all my transmutation stones where gone. The gold that I had wasn’t touched though, which I find very odd and I changed my password twice now. Please arenanet FIND THOSE DAM BANK ROBBERS!

Hi there! When I was going through the mists for PvP matches when I noticed that I could change to my PvP gear, my town clothes and my PvE gear on the fly. Now Im a big fan of dueling and PvP, so when I saw this I thought to myself, “You know what? Wouldn’t it be cool if I could do this in PvE?”. Personally I think it would be amazing if players had the ability to change into there PvP gear on the fly in PvE since not only would we have a simple and balanced way of dueling, but we would also have the dynamic option of an open world PvP(which I’m not too crazy for, but it would be cool). Also in order to fight someone, the other person must also have switched to PvP gear.

Just think about it Arenanet, it would be the simplest and best way to incorporate dueling and open world pvp in a balanced and fun matter.

Dominura.3657:

Piggybacks! I would be cool to add this in downed mode, so that downed team mates could be moved out of dangerous areas by their loving team mates. Also, I want to carry norns around on my asura.

Lol this would be an amazing idea XD

OOh!….oh…sniff MY PRECIOUSE MAD SHEILD/CHAIN SAW SWORD!!!! X(

I think the Asuran females are sexy the way they are, but it wouldn’t hurt to give them breats.

My friend is unable to make a Mad King chest even though he has 90 pieces of candy, 6 mystery tonics, and every single booster available. The problem seems to be that it only works for XP boosters…

Help ASAP would be appreciated! ty

Though i am all for mounts as they would add so much more depth to the game, i disagree that they should be restricted to 80. I think 30 is a good level.

Man I love this idea! This would totally flesh out the end game for guild wars. I just hope they scale the rewards for each mission though.

YES YES and YESSS! More mount threads! Let Arenanet here us out! Mounts would be freeking amazing!

bumb

Ya, I don’t know about you guys, but I am soo tried of all the graphics bugs in this game, all the stupid crashing that occurs, and most of all the lack of support on the forums. Seriously I have made 10 posts, and neither arenanet nor any of my fellow players have responded to me at all. I think I’m going to stop playing until these stupid issues are fixed, cause I virtually cant play a game with this many problems.

Two handed sword here too

So apparently this now apply’s to two handed swords and circular shields…thanks Anet

kitten it really? No one?

Hey there. There is an annoying bug in game for the Charr race that makes any shield thats not circular glitch out so the hand is misplaced.

I have a picture of it bellow; please fix this as I find it very hard to find any good round shields. XP

btw PM me, or I wont see ur relpy :P

Just because the LORE says there arn’t any mounts, doesn’t mean that they couldn’t just add them! I mean come on, Guild Wars lore is so choatic and disorganized as it is, what differance does it make?

The problem is that arenaet were too lazy to care about the differance between having the cammera zoom into you when ur behind a solid wall, and being behind a 2ft high fence XP

Not worth 60$ but defiantly worth 30$

Arenanet posted awhile ago they would add custom matches for players ex. 1v1 2v2 3v3 etc.

NinjaEd.3946:

I love how everyone’s arguement FOR mounts is that wp take away the scenery… Like you really want to mount your trusty stead to look at waterfalls and canyons? No you wana skip by everything quicker and clutter up zones with uneccesary furries. Atleast wp you have to discover them first along with POI. DOWN WITH MOUNTS!

Ya who’s opinion is this based off of? Casue Im pretty sure I never skipped anything while riding my mount in every other MMo I played.

Areananet are gonna add em. There concept art gives it away

Actually that comes from an early build that had the idea of “companions”, permanent NPC allies that would accompany you when you didn’t have a party. The idea was abandoned.

So wait, if that’s the case then why didn’t they just change/remove this concept art if the idea was abandoned? Were they just too lazy too? And if so, what does that say about the company? “Too lazy to remove concept art, but not too lazy to perma- ban people from a mistake they made”?…The logic is astounding.

But maybe your right, cause if you think about it, Arenanet might just be too lazy to add them, because everyone knows if they really tired to work it out, it would work.

I just have to laugh at those who keep using WoW as a reference to literally anything and everything, when almost every mmo ever conceived have offered mounts in their game.
I also love the folks here who get so angry at others who simply “suggest” a possible feature in the game, that they feel the need to insult and attempt to tell them to leave GW2 altogether.
After all, is this not the suggestion forum, or am i mistaken?

Because most of those MMO’s are wannabe WoW clones, ArenaNet is all about making their OWN things, they don’t copy & paste 99% of things from other MMO’s just to get a lot of money.

They are already doing that. Grinding in GW2 is almost like on other MMO’s but here players get punished for playing. Dynamic events are from Rift, buying items for karma like on Rift. Crafting from Aion, Rift, WoW. Achievements, dungeons, pvp all that was ealier on other MMO’s.

So why no mounts?

There is nothing new … oh wait, new are ‘hearts’ and evade system.

Ehm….Tera…

Areananet are gonna add em. There concept art gives it away

Dueling FTW! Basically just make it something we can mess aground with. No up or down scaling regardless of levels or gear, and fight! Would be so much fun to have, but do it the way Aion did it (Auto-decline duels option)

I posted this awhile ago and since I have yet to get an answer I figured I’d post it again :P.
Anyway, during the beta weekend event and for about the first day of the three day head start, my screen would always transition from color to black and white upon being defeated. I really liked this feature, because it gave the aesthetic of making it seen like my character had actually died, and was a little disappointed that it was all of a sudden gone. Now I have searched Google and Guild Wars 2 Guru, but couldn’t find anything on the subject, so that’s why I’m here to report this as a bug/issue or to clarify that this was just removed from the game.
Best wishes to the very responsive moderator team,
Steve.

Edit: I’ve posted this four times now! Please can someone just give me a response already(Moderator’s do not delete this,a s this is a valid point!)

So the other day, I tried to do some Keg Brawl matches with my friend. We grouped together so we’d be on the same team but when we went in, we were in completely different matches. We tried several ways to work around this but couldn’t figure out a way to get us in as a group. So that’s why I’m here to either submit this as a bug, or find a way to work around this.

Lolwut XD Dam buggs XP
