Guild Wars 2

Indeed we do need some heavy armor hoods.

Something simple like a banded helmet covered by a hood would be good enough imo.

Eh. Anything that has a cash shop usually has a load of Bullkitten that goes with it.

I hate cash shops. Feels like I’m being inconvenienced by design. Especially with F2P games.

Not to mention the gems for gold system. They pretty much became gold sellers with a shiny UI. I’d be okay with this if gold were easier to make and we could exchange it for more gems but for some reason they seem to nerf the ways people can make gold in game.

slighty suss yo.

Intention or no not it still looks shady as hell.

I’d rather a sub really.

VaLee.5102:

And as a testament to my original argument that a company should never release stuff like this, is this very topic, and seems others that are created on this subject aswell.

This is a game community, topics like this should not be incentivized by the company.

For me, it’s another fail from Anet, think I tend to a see a pattern lately…

HEAR HEAR!

I am against the passing of this law.

I’m not even American, I’m Australian and I know if America does it Australia will probably follow suite.

Anyway.

Obviously the devs have their own views, opinions, political outlooks and the like as they are people too but it is important for them to remain neutral in such matters if we wish to keep some form of peace here in the forums and the like.

For example. Certain views could push some players away from the game if they don’t agree with the opinions and the like of the devs. Perhaps it seems stupid to some but it happens. Though of course a few devs don’t represent the whole team in terms of beliefs and such.

And well, this gay marriage thing. Of course many are glad it has happened but many are also disheartened by it.

Anything that has the attention of the devs carries some weight so what they say here on the forums means something…on the forums. Perhaps they have no real power but here on the forums their voices have influence.

Some may be delighted to know what the dev thinks whilst others may be grossly offended by their opinions. People might mistakenly believe that it would be okay to bash the devs opposition for example. Which would not be conducive to a nice, friendly, safe environment for everyone or w/e.

Though honestly it seems that the team is pro gay marriage or something as you know, Marjory and Kasmeer…There is that place where people can get married in Lions Arch. Yeah.

I can see it now, the two getting married in the game. Which sucks. Put us into a personal story instance with the marriage just so they can shove their political views in our face….kittenmit. My character would not be there. >.> Could you imagine if you couldn’t progress the story without completing it? Jesus.

See I’m already offended.

STILL, neutrality…please…for our mental health…

Most likely has been suggested already but why don’t you give us the option to recolor some features on weapons?

Like the yellow details on the gallant or the red light on that Balthazar GS? Those kinds of things.

At least the black lion ones. I mean you’d probably sell a load more keys if such an option were available.

This would bring a new element to the end game fashion wars!

I imagine others feel the same way.

Seeing as it’s not already an option I’m sure there is a reason why. Anyone care to enlighten me?

Why does it feel like some kind of a water theme park? O_o

I think it’s okay.

Aside from the cast time, and huge cooldown.

I know shiet all about balancing but those factors make it feel mehish.

If you equip the perfect inscriptions trait from radiance the passive heal visual changes to a more intense burst to show it’s increase in power.

Imagine if that intensity scaled with healing power? Now that’d be awesome.

Are there more of these traits that change the visuals of abilities on Guardian? There should certainly be more.

azizul.8469:

for SEA players, it is around 3.00am 24th June (past midnight, very early morning)

Who needs sleep amirite?

Ugh yeah. My build is ruined also.

That 600 vitality from traits got cut in half.

Now I need to pick up more ascended to make up for it.

I suppose the stat buff to gear will make up for it though.

Equip a few accessories or w/e with the vitality stat and I’ll probably be where I was.

But still…ascended gear…ughhhhhhhh dat grind….again…

The devs did a great job making the game and do a good job maintaining it.

The guys higher up have tainted their work with BS.

They work for the same company.

Through the eyes of the consumer they’re in this ride together I’m afraid.

Both the devs and higher ups that is.

I don’t support the “abuse” but hey at least everyone at Anet is getting to know the extent of the problem.

Maybe cause some internal conflict lel.

Been watching Wooden Potatoes for a while and he generally looks at things objectively.

Seems like a smart guy.

Maybe he does benefit from Anet’s success but I don’t think it has made him biased.

I’d trust him.

Oh wow shiet.

Hah someone go slap them already.

Community.

Your anguish sustains me.

Nice. These new traits and the like for Guardian are going to be a real power up.

At least for my build that is.

Seems like a way to trivialize a death if you ask me.

Not to mention this game feels too light hearted to have such a feature.

Such a thing would not happen anytime soon anyway. Can’t expect them to drop resources into this when they’ve already got plans with the expansion etc.

People also need to stop bringing such things to the forums, it brings some people down.

It’s kitten selfish too.

This thread already has a dark cloud hanging over it.

Sigmoid.7082:

E3Drinking game:
Take a shot every time you hear :

• Soon
• When its ready
• Numbers aren’t final yet

I’ll do this.

Now they need to keep it nerfed so the song stays relevant lel.

Yes more difficult groupZERG content.

Now instead of slamming 1 you must now also use your heal skill! ooooooOO!!!!

Nah with Silver wastes it looks like they probably have some good ideas in the chute. It’s not a bad place and I feel it’s one of the only places I’ve ever felt challenged in this game. Hopefully we’ll see more of it. Actual challenge, not BS mechanics I can’t do sheet about.

Just ahhh not a billion copies of the silver wastes event please.

And kitten no 180-spin-insta-kill you could never have seen coming bs pls Anet.

The I hope jory dies and it turns out Kasmeer is a giant bisexual so I can make her mine club.

That is what mine is called anyway.

Like come on Brah I’M THE COMMANDER KASMEER I COMMAND YOU TO LOVE ME

It’d sure be a shame if jory got lost in maguuma….

Seriously though I don’t know. Probably something really cheesy and/or child like.

Cause you know…Dragonhunter…

15 char minimum.

Eh. Some repeats from another thread but w/e.
The one under Jory’s dress was an accident I swear.
Such vanity.

It knows…

15/

It being a way better ranger than an actual ranger in pve or pvp is pretty much a problem in itself.

Fashion Mage.3712:

^
The mere fact that this name (and specialization) needs so much justification shows how bad it is.

+1

Ugh…Seems that way doesn’kitten

Let’s try keep this straw poll thread up. Really wish to see what the majority of the community thinks.

Odyssey.2613:

Dragonhunter? Really, Arena Net? This is the best you can come up with? Really?!? That name is so amazingly awful. Holy kitten of all kittens……. Who in the office let their 10 year old decide on the final name?

You passed on a great opportunity with such names as Paladin, Paragon, Holy Knight, etc.?

You did right with Chronomancer. You have such a vast amount of rich lore to tap from. How about using it!?

You do realize technically all players in Tyria are ‘dragonhunters’ right? Good grief Anet. Pull your kitten out of your kitten. It’s kind of condescending to the other professions when you think about it.

See people, it’s things exactly like this that turned me from a GW1 Anet supporter to a cynical, jaded, critic of Anerf. The levels of kitten they are able to produce never ceases to amaze me.

Can’t say I’m too surprised really. I mean come on…all your swearing has been turned into kittens.

This Forum has been rated “G” kids.

Totbot.4583:

Meh, there’s a pretty big difference between “Dragonhunter” and “Doofy Butt-Clown”.

And if there was a class called Doofy Butt-Clown and it was a fun class that was powerful, I doubt too many people would actually care in the long run.

Symbolism is important.

Uhh yeah…I’ll probably never pick up a long bow on my Guardian…We belong in the thick of the fight if you ask me. We should still be in the thick of the fight, up close and personal in harms way…least it is what I was hoping for.

Just seems like a buffing ranger with traps. O_o

Not to mention the specialization name sounds lame as hell.

Won’t see me running around with that profession.

I’ll stick with the shield next to my character’s name.

Indeed. Checked the Twitter myself.

I hope we get the wings too.

I certainly hope there are such options. I’d rather fight through the hordes than fly over them honestly.

There will probably be areas that we can’t access without certain items though. They did say something about their progression being similar to Zelda or Metroid with the mastery system.

Like how you need the hookshot from OOT to enter the forest temple? Maybe? If you’ve played that…

kitten . The indigenous residents on my street are fighting again.

They love to yell up and down the street.

My kingdom for a gun..

I feel the title is yelling at me.

Gaile Gray.6029:

From what I remember hearing years ago, few faces are modeled directly from a single individual, but an artist may admire a certain nose, an unusual pair of eyes, that sort of thing, and then incorporate their interpretation of those elements into a face that they’re designing.

I’ll see if there’s an artist who could speak to this on a more informed basis.

That’d be great.

It’d be awesome if there are people out there that look like our characters.

Curious as to who influenced certain faces etc. Even if it is just a pair of eyes.

Would there happen to be a list of people that the Human and Norn faces in this game are modeled after?

Aside from the obvious Clint Eastwood.

If there is such a list that is.

I only want thicker legs to match the most built human male character model there is. The upper body is fine but his legs are small. Have you seen a male human in draconic leggings? The legs look tiny. Why you make him miss leg day Anet?

Most Norn models are too big and most human models are too skinny. More middle ground please.

It’d be easier if we just had sliders for these kinds of things.

We need more control over customization. Some F2P games are doing it better.

Edit: Just noticed we have no default Asian faces in character creation. More please. No I don’t want to use that Sylvari one I’m sure you’re thinking of.

Already in the comment section of that article do people think it’s a bad idea.

Can anyone enlighten me on why Nexon supposedly sucks?

Ynna.8769:

Ditch the Staff and take Sword (or Mace) and Focus instead. That right there is a lot of extra survivability and damage.

Guardians need to rely a lot on active defenses. Look for heavy hitting attacks from enemies and use Blinds, Blocks and Dodges to avoid them. With Greatsword/Sword+Focus you should be able to solo Champions if you’re patient.

Some legendaries also.

Yes, we need a war bow!

Not a little girl’s toy…

MANLY!

And you know what we mean you people who are trying to be politically correct. You understand the OP, just go with it.

You could start your own lfg group and call it “No zerkers”.

Kind of a creepy shot.

Ghosting the admin.

Eh I agree with the OP.

I prefer swords like Krytan GS or that ebonhawke one.

As stupid as this sounds, whenever I see my character swing around something like the fractal greatsword I just feel uncomfortable for him.

+1 for more sword looking swords.

I prefer the long flowing leggings as the Human male character models in this game have skinny legs.

I don’t want to see them.

Looks stupid.

Stop missing leg day.

Need more war dresses!

Not hard enough imo. O_o

Never really felt the struggle if there was meant to be one.

Still. The option would be cool.

Even just to take screenshots or admire the world up close.

I don’t mean full on Elder Scrolls style with being able to see the body plus weapons etc etc. Though that would be cool.

The way WoW does it would be fine with me. Just the ole camera sitting in front of the character’s face.

I think the game would become more popular with these things.

First person view + oculus rift support.

Could it ever happen?

Please?

I honestly hope we DO need to pay for it. Expansions are loads of work generally and I don’t expect or want to get it for free.

Plus it makes the game seem really cheap if they release expansions etc for free.

We want something quality don’t we?

Also come on. $60 is Fook all. You’d probably spend that on fast food or some crap anyway.

Gilosean.3805:

We’ve gotten almost an expansion’s worth this year, tbh. New zones, nice story for a game, tons of new skins, upgrades like the wardrobe, the trait rework (which I think is stupid and bad for the game, but it counts) and the NPE. A lot of stuff was added or updated.

ANet’s real problem is that MMO players are trained to expect an expansion. Without that hype, I’m not sure how they’ll draw the players back. Some kind of large LS release with major press releases?

No way have we got an expansion worth of content this year.

We’ve pretty much got the equivalent of a single large zone of WoW.

Living story would be okay if they actually did release content bi-weekly all year round.

DonRobeez.3560:

…players can just teleport/shadowstep/leap all over the place…

You hating on Guardians bro?
