Guild Wars 2

I am deeply interested to hear will this tool result into ban or will ArenaNet make this option available in-game.

I really wish to use it, but its best to ask here first.

I am amazed, stunned! This is best living story ever!

The story line is freakin’ epic, including Caithe in past which is amazingly done well. We got new, “puzzle”/Skritt underground map which simply took my breath away! I can’t see any better possible way to maintain LS chain. Amazing job!

Regarding PvP: Its A LOT more enjoyable than ever! I met people with my rank range and it makes game a lot comfortable. You found best solution for maps: Choosing. That way, everyone can be happy, both haters and fans of “Skyhammer” map.

The wallpaper for this patch is like eye orgasm, its so epic! All that colors and beauty well tailored into war…..

10/10! Keep it up!

Howsoever , new PvP maps are missing here. Current ones are getting quite old and boring so you should introduce at least 5-6 of them soon.

Well, that’s it! Happy wintersday everyone

sorry sir, but Im afraid I didn’t understood Dishonor system well. How do you mean slowly fades off and gets longer? Can this be described more clearly?

Thank you in advance

so, better is to run Full screen than Windowed Fullscreen?

I was wondering what is difference between these two and do they affect FPS?

Thanks in advance!

Its ironic how bad this game balanced is, and how much lies anet tell us before we buy game. Its such good marketing….

Hoaxintelligence.4628:

Who cares about whining people anyway

Do anet pay attention? No.
Do other people pay attention? No.

I don’t see whats problem here. Everyone has right to ease their soul here and express personal opinions.

that was solo arena and everyone plays rangers. Since they buffed them, rangers surpassed warriors by rolling. GG

This also applies for weapons. Even skins doesn’t posses enough effects and poorly done.

WoW must have ruined my tastes about awesome amours. GW2 amours looks very simple and unattractive if u ask me.

Hello there!

I believe current exotic and ascended armors are quite lame by look. They look very simple, casual and ordinary. Why not put some awesomeness onto them?

For example: add fire, smoke, lightning and rest magical items to these amours so people can be proud of their time spent on game. Current amours doesn’t look rewarding, but opposite: gives feeling of random poor drop.

As attached picture, its me wearing end game armour. Where are effects at them?

For example: at my left shoulder, there should be some kind of fire getting out of that circle. Knifes should have some glow as well.

Come on, I know designers at ANET can do better than this! Show some creativity! Give players awesome feeling after obtaining some piece of gear!

They have same builds and winning.

I remember when arena net was saying skill > build but seems its different…

Had to change to warr cuz everyone played thief at my group…….

I just wanted to wish Happy Halloween to all GW2 staff and players!

Its been another year and yet no Mad Memories backpack skin.

• Feels sad *

Anyway, have a great time everyone!

R.I.P. common sense and anet reply team. Seems they don’t wanna tell us anything.

Stop posting flaming posts. You are just making rage even bigger through this posts.

I will add mine personal opinion: game sucks without NEW VETERAN CONTENT updates.

Still waiting for response. i really do need answer.

AAARRRGH THIS IS DRIVING ME CRAZZZY!!! IS IT BACK OR NOT????

Can someone from ANET please confirm this? We have to know for sure!

Im giving the 50 euros to developers on the very first day “Race change kit” is released. Interested in my money? Think way for making this possible. I know you can find a way.

Okay ANET, its enough. Its not even funny anymore. Fix it already, I took day off to play this patch and you keep draggin’ around.

By doing this every single time, you seriously refrain people from playing this game. Its a fact.

Punjabi Decerodus.5936:

I had problem too. Immediately figured there was some sort of bug. When the bug was found it was probably during off hours when most of the people who could fix the thing were at home with their families.

It is probably a one liner fix something like [boolean repeatReward = true/false;] got left on true for testing or who knows why and made it to the final release. However, instead of having people exploit this all night they just disable it until they get in and fix the bug.

This is no excuse for content “glitch”. One line of code is easy to fix, and its quite some time now at Anet. I have no idea what they are doing right now….

arjov.8649:

ehm , button for “high” texture settings is grayed out together with high character textures… is this your magic fix? no seriously are you trying to scale the graphic this way?

Serbianwolf.1652:

“High-res character textures” is greyed out and unable to change(check or uncheck). Also, “Textures:” field is empty, making me be able select only medium and low.

What is the meaning of this anet?

This was intended…sort of. “High-res character textures” will no longer be available for low performance CPUs(most dual core) since it can be incredibly demanding on performance; on CPUs like these it will make the game unplayable. The grayed out texture quality bit was unintended and will be fixed.

This was a very minor part of the changes that went in, none of which I would qualify as “the magic fix”. As I mentioned it’s been incredibly difficult to ascertain what some of you are experiencing and thankfully our changes helped some of you, but for others it did not. We will keep working on it, chipping away at the issues we find.

Thanks all for your feedback and apologies for the hiccup. I will keep you posted if we find a smoking gun.

Well, at least we got our response; which I deeply respect. Just to confirm this Chad, blank tab under “Textures:” is part of “intended development fix” or bug?

Thanks in advance!

Sooo.. ANET was “developing” the game for 2 months already + didn’t gave us any patches. Then, when something minor like this comes out, it doesn’t work . Content is disabled.

They introduced content, released it but disabled its story. Seems legit to me.

obviously, these are weapons from Halloween 2012. And he will give them to random folks.

SirKomar.2094:

It’s still the same.
Aww i don’t want to miss this halloween stuff.

Nevermind, now it’s seems to work a lot faster than before.
Thanks a lot.

Auto-login is still broken. And I don’t call this a patch without good explanation.

the very moment I have seen their “fix” for our problem….

arjov.8649:

nah, i don’t think so:
r9 280x 3GB
16 GB ddr3@ 1866
i5 4690k @ 4.5 GHz
win 8 x64

Once you go 9/9, there is no turning back. R.I.P graphic engine.

“High-res character textures” is greyed out and unable to change(check or uncheck). Also, “Textures:” field is empty, making me be able select only medium and low.

What is the meaning of this anet?!!!!!!!!!!

I will definitively going with this build: http://de.gw2skills.net/editor/?fJAQNAseSjMdUGaVImdwJagqgC9BEAPg6eoxzhUbAA-TVCEAB7eIAY4IAAj6PbpEkJlfScCA6QfAAPAgY2fgMALTA-w

Thank you so much everyone!

Sword/Shield is definitely better solution for me than GS. Can anyone provide me such combination build?

Elegie.3620:

Hello,

I wouldn’t recommend hammer+longbow for roaming. This combination works nicely in PvP because it offers area control, which is excellent for node control – but what matters most in roaming, IMHO, is area awareness (know what happens around you, players incoming, kiting options…) and mobility (take advantage of your build to engage/control/disengage accordingly).

You can, however, find excellent builds using either the hammer or the longbow, in physical or condition damage flavor. Would have you have a preference for a particular style and a particular weapon?

Regards.

Thanks for fast reply mate! I prefer more Hammer playstyle than bow. Is there any good hammer build for me? Thanks in advance!

Hello fellow warriors!

I would like to play roaming warrior(solo mostly) with hammer and maybe bow if possible. What are my options? Thanks in advance!

I would like to see GvG radis

Also Dueling option, which is “left out” since beginning.

Ashley Segovia.8276:

Just curious to see the response here – is there any chance in performance when playing in FullScreen mode? We’ve seen this issue occur mostly in “Windowed” and “FullScreen Windowed” and we’d like to see if you all experience any difference while playing in FullScreen mode.

Thanks again everyone!

I play in FullScreen -1920 × 1080 mode all the time and its there, waiting to kill my eyes with stuttering.

Ashley Segovia.8276:

Hey everyone,

I appreciate the wealth of info that you’ve all provided and rest assured, we’re still hammering away at this issue though we can’t say for certain when we will have a fix rolled out as these types of issues can often be very difficult to repro in house.

That said, we’re still investigating the issue but in the mean time, if you haven’t already, I’d advise turning on Vertical Sync or setting the Frame Limiter to 60 FPS as this does appear help (at least for some).

I’m sorry I don’t have more news to provide at the moment though I would advise checking back with this thread for more updates on the issue.

Saying "We are working on this ATM " is all I need to hear. Im looking forward to see this fixed soon.

this is still not fixed? what are you doing anet???

Gaile Gray.6029:

Also, FYI: there will be no guild restrictions in place, so your friend playing on a free trial account is welcome to join your guild and will be able to chat and play with you and your guild members.

This is bad decision. Other changes are very good and I very support them.

Your location: Serbia(Europe)
Time and date of incident (plus time zone): Since release of 9/9 feature patch. Today when logged in, from 13:57pm +1 GMT
Game World: Underworld
Map: Shuttering happens on every map.
Brief description of what you’re seeing: Game runs smoothly then suddenly fps drops for no reason. When at F11 my fps is 49-55 then suddenly >23.
Ticket number, if you submitted one: Don’t wanna spam support so I didn’t submitted any.

Really hope it helps. I’m fed up from this shuttering.

Ark Bladesteele.2943:

I feel like I’m playing a game from 2012, that looks like a game from 2008, that runs like a game from 2015 on 2001 hardware. Get your kitten together.

You are not the only one. Whole forum is raging about this. I used to have 50fps, but now I have 10~25. Nice patch.

Why not make GW2 for tetris? I think comparation is legit.

same here. I don’t want to bore support with this, specially cuz im IT engineer and I know what Im doing. This is issue of gw2, not my system.

Adrenaline is dead. Time to re-roll other class. They will understand how big mistake they did when they see no warriors around at all.

These changes are meant to attract new players and make them stay, because GW2 will be on trial from September 25 to October 1, 2014.

Considering this, what they did to leveling system(only) was valid. I absolutely hated camera thing(until they brought it back to normal),whatsoever.

Bullington.4693:

I was having the same issue when the update was released 3 days ago and now it seems to be working fine. thank you Anet for fixing it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

may you tell us what wasn’t working?

Dear developers,
Please fix autologin. Thank you <3

i have the same problem. Unable to auto login.

Now that they ruined adrenaline, 90% of traits are useless because they where made for previous adrenaline setup. Unless this changes, warriors should be declared as broken.

Any updates on this? Seems nobody at ANET read this lol, wee need assistance from their devs.

Stephane Lo Presti.7258:

Hi there,

As a follow-up to Colin’s post, we want you to know that we’re working kitten fixing bugs in the New Player Experience system. We’re also using this opportunity to make a few changes to its design to take into account the feedback we’ve been reading. We’re aiming to deploy the fixes early next week.

As Colin explained (make sure to read this post and that one if you haven’t!), this is a complex, “big picture” system that has a lot of components. We want it to benefit all players and improve your game experience overall.

We understand that this is an important topic for the community and appreciate that players have been talking about it. We’ve been triaging bug reports, developing fixes for them and discussing what design changes we will bring to you next week. We’ll continue to both work on the next updates and read the feedback from the community on this topic!

Thank you

Can you provide us FPS update asap? I can’t wait till next week Thanks.
