US scientists discovered that any game with a Linux client is at least 10% more cool than the next leading brand.

IN OVERALL response to this thread, you can always stop being stubborn and expect a company to invest millions to satisfy a 1% market share (yes they are noisy but still 1%) and just dual boot Windows, its not like anyone pays for Windows these days who has half a brain. Which I do not have as I paid for it.
Oh god no, please anet do not listen to this heretic. Since you do not listen to any of the posts here anyways, I’m not worried about it, but if you throw a dart at one thing on the years archive of suggestions to implement, make it not this.
The air combat thing above me does sound gg, but this engine isn’t built for it check out planetside 2 or the original Starsiege Tribes (which is free now)
24 Hours is wayyyyyyy too long for all forts to not be capturable. An hour at most would be bearable but anet would still risk kitten off the most active part of the game.
I would like to see more current events circled on the big maps. Certainly all the meta events.
Not being able to see events from further away means you wander around looking for events to do or trigger. On days when I am trying to do my daily and time is short, it means I head to the noob zones where I know already where they are. I would go to the higher level zones on those days if I could find events easier.
Yeh, showing them all would help the PVE in this game not feel so “dead”
Please do something about the champion wrisen wraith that appears in events in orr, including all the camps, and sometimes grenth.
I have seen it wipe zergs of 15+ players doing events, wreck all npcs, destroy structures, we made a concentrated effort to kill it and did not even dent it’s bar. It sits there doing that aoe life leech thing and you cannot interrupt it or anything. Anet I know you are short on staff and there are financial issues but plz throw a tester in there and see for yourself.
EDIT: for events that involve keeping an npc alive, when this thing appears its event failed almost instantly.
Renown heart is bugged – all the loggers are dead, and there are only 2 displaced spirits, both stuck high up in trees and you cannot interact with them. There are NONE of the features needed to complete this heart, which is blocking world completion and therefore blocking the creation of legendary weapons. This heart has always been buggy and sucked, please make it like the rest of the hearts in the game where you just have to kill some trash and move on.
kitten the new “monetization manager” and kitten you too, anet. GW1 was such an epic and classic game, and it is sad to see that your new former korean skin gambler expert is driving a pick into the heart of this game. More content? Balances? Screw all that, lets add more gambling dyes.
Me and a buddy are looking for others interested in grouping in WvW for taking camps, ninja-ing towers, general smaller group WvW activities, as well as helping other members with Fotm/any other misc stuff and just chilling.
We’ve got a bunch of upgrades including missions unlocked, need more people to run those successfully though.
Doesn’t matter if you’re a noob, we’ll teach/help you out.
Guild Name: Gods Disciples (Not a monotheistic or otherwise religiously affiliated guild)
Have a 50 person mumble server, buffs are usually always up, if you can rep and help out with WvW on a somewhat regular basis, pm me and I’ll send an invite your way.
I would’ve traded all the new content added post release (other than tweaks and bug fixes) for, say, 10 new traits, 5 new utility and 1 new elite skill for each class.
When I came to GW2 and first reached 80 and max level gear I breathed a sigh of relief—I would never have to grind again—or so I thought. It is and continues to be a huge disappointment.

long time gw1 vet, played gw1 since release. gw1 was fun because of breadth of useful skills, and the various combat styles you could succesfully use because of those skills. Plus, the healer/tank/whatever setup was fun as well.
I don’t know if all the anet staff were thrown out long ago to be replaced by others, but from the creeping monetization of ascended, clueless “balancing”, and useless weapons on chars forcing players to use one of the 2 (if you are lucky) builds that actually works, and the contempt shown for players pointing this stuff out in the forums, looks like it.
gw1 was fun not because of racing for higher stats through some kitten dungeon or buying kitten on tp, but because the huge number of skills per class (not tied to weapons, stupid idea that) made many builds available for pve and pvp, and left room for creative experimentation.
tl;dr
bring the gw1 staff back from their cardboard boxes in the alley and get rid of the jerks you have now
I second this problem. Thiefs should not be able to be stealthed (from other players viewpoints) for 20 seconds or longer while using attacks, ressing, etc.
Fix the stealth problem where thiefs still appear stealthed to other players for a period long enough for them to use another stealth skill. Else WvW is going to be mostly thiefs exploiting this bug.
Whispering is being delayed for up to 20 minutes, sometimes longer. I try to whisper someone, and it may take that long for it to be sent. No problem when responding using /r.
This is buy 2 play, not free to play, like so many defenders of this keep saying. That is their business model. However they should have published the odds of getting a halloween related drop. No moar gems for anet from me.
And to the fanboi defenders of this situation, you are beyond salvation.
