It looks like this has been fixed with todays new build / update.
Windows 7 x64, GW2 x64 client.
Settings like ground targeting [instant] are remembered again even after exit and relog. I’ll keep an eye on it.
For now I dislike the new maps but I haven’t given them a good chance yet. Mostly play at EB for the time being. The desert maps are without commanders most of the time. Because I fail at roaming alone in unknown enemy territories, I’ll wait for commanders to arrive to learn the maps with a group, when I’ll decide if I like them or not.
Update: I checked my Guild Wars 1 account and my Hall of Monuments and everything is fine in there. When I logged back into GW2 and visited my HoM everything seems fine again: My titles are back and I got my HoM achievement points back as well. They now show as “Recently completed” even though these were my first ever achievements.
I got an in-game mail with the title “LOR-748 Title-Issuing Error” while playing WvW and my HoM titles have been removed. The mail talks about GWAMM, but I had the title “Legend of the Mists” active. I never had GWAMM and got my HoM titles since the release of GW2. All HoM titles and points have been stripped from my account.
Please keep your golems under control, ANet!
How do I get Master of Ruins on the new borderlands map?
I haven’t seen any ruins as far as I explored and I can’t port to the Alpine borderlands.
Ground target is in most cases a buff.
Feels a lot better to have it controlled.
It just needs a shorter delay before it falls.
Not if you want to bomb stuff on walls or behind gates in WvW.
I don’t suggest to remove the ground targeting, just give us an option to select the behaviour. For my part for all ground targeting spells if that’s okay.
With the last skill change, the Elementalist Scepter spell Dragon Tooth changed to ground targeting. While this can be useful in some cases, it also ended the only scepter spell for bombing things out of sight in WvW. (This spell was often used to kill sieges and enemy players around it on top of or behind walls.) I play Scepter/Dagger and have no other spell that can do this.
I would like to suggest to at least allow players who prefer the old cast-on-selected-target functionality to use it the old way. For example by making it a selectable option for players.
I would like to keep Dragon Tooth as it is, because I like selecting a player/siege and attacking it out of sight in WvW.

I miss a “disagree” and “Plz don’t bother me I just want to play GW2” button.
The ‘please don’t bother me I just want to play’ button is the same as the Agree button. You don’t actually have to read the agreement to play, you just have to accept it. (Although one of the things you are agreeing to is that you’ve read and understood it.)
The ‘disagree’ button is the little x in the corner of the launcher. If you don’t agree then you can’t play the game. (If there’s something in particular you genuinely disagree with, or have concerns about, you could maybe contact Anet to discuss it. But I wouldn’t expect it to change quickly if it changed at all and if you want to play you do have to agree to it.)
Well, you’re right in theory, but in practice stopping playing is not a viable option after you spent hundreds or thousands of hours and quite some money on your characters. And that is my point. Once you’re in with a decent investment of your time, you’re locked in and they can ask anything in the EULA. Players will agree to it to just get access to their chars back.
Personal housing like in Lord Of The Rings Online could be cool. You pay x amount of gold for rental, and you can customize it – same as in Wildstar. But would be cool with a instanced neighborhood where everybody can check out your house :-)
I really liked the concept of LotRO housing and the way it is customizable. The bad thing tho is that is is instanced and therefore always deserted. It would be awesome if there could be a non-instanced housing system. I always fantasized about the enormous Kaineng City area of GW1 being actually accessible, with an individual player house behind every door. That would truly be awesome.
A good housing system also should have storage and a way to display your collections, like the Hall of Monuments in GW1.
I kinda like celestial on my Elementalist. Most players say they go for berserker (zerk) but I like the balance of the additional toughness, vitality and condition damage and some better self-healing. It doesn’t do as much damage but gives a noticeable boost in survivability and gives the largest amount of attribute points.
I mostly play scepter/dagger by the way.
I have exterminated entire species and gene pools from the face of Tyria, wiped out nations, civilisations, broods and all forms of life.
0 Precursors of any variety.
Same here. World completion, a few dungeons, many, many WvW chests. Only Siege Commander Spoons. And the price of the precursors on the trading post is rising faster than my gold is. I’ll wait for the HoT precursor crafting. Hopefully it is accessible enough to actually get one out of there.

For those afraid of the dark:
? Fear not this night
You will not go astray
Though shadows fall
Still the stars find their wayAwaken from a quiet sleep
Hear the whispering of the wind
Awaken as the silence grows
In the solitude of the nightDarkness spreads through all the land
And your weary eyes open silently
Sunsets have forsaken all
The most far off horizonsNightmares come when shadows grow
Eyes close and heartbeats slowFear not this night
You will not go astray
Though shadows fall
Still the stars find their wayAnd you can always be strong
Lift your voice with the first light of dawnDawn’s just a heartbeat away
Hope’s just a sunrise awayDistant sounds of melodies
Darting through the night to your heart
Auroras, mists, and echoes dance
In the solitude of our lifePleading, sighing arias
Gently grieving in captive misery
Darkness sings a forlorn song
Yet our hope can still rise upNightmares come when shadows roam
Lift your voice, lift your hopeFear not this night
You will not go astray
Though shadows fall
Still the stars find their wayAnd though the night sky’s filled with blackness
Fear not, rise up, call out and take my handFear not this night
You will not go astray
Though shadows fall
(Still the stars find their way)Fear not this night
You will not go astray Though shadows fall
(Still the stars find their way)And you can always be strong
Lift your voice with the first light of dawnDawn’s just a heartbeat away
Hope’s just a sunrise away ?

I just had my first black screen when playing WvW. Not a graphics driver crash message and I could switch to window and back. Screen stayed black until I closed GW2.
It would be nice to have Connection recovery ported from GW1 to GW2 for cases like this.

I also have problems with the trading post failing to display screens at all or with parts missing. It has been happening for many months but because retrying often solves it I did not file a bug report earlier. But it is quite annoying that it is happening so often.
I do not have connection issues at my side. My internet connection is stable, has enough bandwidth (ZeelandNet.nl cable 20/4MBit/sec) and I’m connected with with shielded CAT6 cables to my router. (No wifi)
Trying to micromanage ground target aoe and dodges … good luck with that.
Or we can have AI for that.
Same issue on my L80 Ele. I have everything unlocked, and I get an training exclamation mark which returns after some time and/or map change.
My storage bank is bursting, can we please get another storage bank tab expansion sale? It has been quite a while since I saw these on sale.
Thanks!
Difficult indeed. I advise to click the little arrow icon which allows you to reconsider and make a final choice later on. You don’t have to decide yet!

Nothing bannable here. Maybe a warning for spamming if he/she keeps flooding the chat with the message. But hey, if you are giving this person gold in-game, I’m gonna scream the same. ;-)
I’m still waiting on a resolution of my support request (1311068:Second copy of Digital Deluxe Upgrade – Not all items delivered) of last Friday, march 06, 2015.
Update My support request has been resolved on Thursday, march 12, 1015. Thank you.

DO NOT BUY A SECOND COPY, IT IS BUGGED
I sent a support ticket (#1311068) regarding this issue. Because of the low price, I bought a second copy of the Digital Deluxe Upgrade in Gem Store for 500 gems, expecting to get an additional Chalice of Glory, Tome of Influence and Golem Banker. But the in-game mail “Special Item Delivery” I received after my purchase did not contain any of these attachments.
I did get a second mail with the Heroic Chest (Armor chest) but not the rest of the items I purchased.
I submitted a ticket yesterday asking for these missing items or a refund of my 500 gems. I’m still waiting for a solution at the moment I write this.

The Elementalist Earth trait Stone Heart does not always activate when under Earth Attunement. Especially when logging into a character who already was attuned to earth or sometimes when map traveling.
This is kind of annoying because I expect it to be on when it is not. Please fix this.
I have the same issue right now.
