Guild Wars 2

Chickenshoes.6250:

I find that there simply aren’t that many bugs, so I would deem the current rate of bug-fixes to be suitable as-is unless you’re an engineer.

However I find their PvP balance to be horribly iterated upon, taking months and months for minor changes to overall class problems and not assigning a lot of problems the proper priority.

Theirs plenty of bugs… trust me, if you dont, run the game off okitten phone connection and the occasional lag spike WILL show you how many things are constantly being handled by the server, even thought heir is over 20 gigs on your HDD, or you really are not trying to push the game that hard, which should be, but apparently IS NOT, covered by the extensive testing they claim to do. So their are plenty of bugs, much more than what their should be by anets own claims and what they claim their policies to be.

If you do extensive testing on anything else, you would not have these issues or bugs, unless testing is the only thing they do, and they don’t actually address the problems. But since i don’t work for anet, i can only speculate and i cannot say for sure, but actions do speak louder than words

I would like LESS people to load (priority would be party members, then commanders, then guild members, then whatever downed players can fit), would say no more than 20 ppl in a 1200 attack radius.
this is mainly because I cannot target Mobs, and i usually have to run around in a circle w/ a range weapon “hoping” or “wishing” i hit the right target. none of your in game options help, and i have a high performance gaming computer, and im sure i have higher graphics settings than others here

They said there were problems with them having both a bank and a wallet. However you can make a guild bank for yourself with storage and put money in there. You can either farm gold and buy influence or farm influence to pay for it.

Personal guilds are flawed. Further more, their are far too many bugs in the guild banking system that does NOT make it work like a proper bank. Not to mention just to get a personal guild up that far, it actually takes quiet a bit. IF they fixed these issues, then i could see your argument take place, but until the bugs and issues are fixed, their is no point in your argument EXCEPT for me to type this ad bring it up to the developers attention

i honestly think they should leave gold the way it is and make karma per character, instead of account. but since they already made it account, its kinda screwed over anyway.

The way i say it, Karma was like a special currency per character so that you could only use what that character has earned.

I understand what you mean, but gold was already transferable, and if they were to go back to the deposit, I would like it whenever i am buy something (no matter from were ) it would use up the gold the character has first, but then dip into (and show) the banks gold as well (what you have deposited)

i would prefer harvesting lower grade materials harder. usually have a tons of those. besides a vet oakheart is not that tough, you just gotta learn its attacks and your build

You can always feel free to come back to the game when you see it has somthing new for you. Either way you never know what they have planned in the future.

its not something new he wants, its for anet to fix the game itself

and since they HAVE NOT (as of yet) fixed those things, and every month they release something new that only makes those things worse, its not likely to change any time soon

One of the things anet promises, but doesn’t deliver, and something he didn’t mention, is that they claim to do extensive testing. You have to be careful to when you post stuff like this b/c thy take offense really easily and will delete and ban you from the forums.

But if anet claims to do so much extensive testing before they release an update, why is it almost every update is like a major game release full of bugs, and they only make the main game worse.

I actually TRULY believe this is one of their main problems (their are others), because who wants to play a game with all these little bugs that you have to keep working around and only make the game worse. Then when you find a way to get around having to deal with the bugs, it is technically an exploit and anet fixes that, but not the bugs. Meaning that now you HAVE to put up with the stuff that makes the game worse, instead of making it better.

I have a suggestion to fix this. first would be to create a bubble around the character (much as you have it now), but then put in a limitatin as to were the target can be chosen from.

If you add in a perspective line (something like what already has to be their cuz of the way the skillz work w. the camera) coming strait out of the character, then add in a 20-30 degree conic section coming off of that, that will take walls into account (floors too… can’t stand CM b/c of this), and then have it select the current closest target that is w/i range of that conic section, with the exception of weapons that do more dmg with range (i.e. mes gs #1), then have it chose the farthest target.

This can be accomplished using Linear algebra and matrices to make a 2d overlay of a 3d environment (similar to the perception effect on 3d movies). Also,if you make this happen on the user side instead of server side, it will greatly help auto-targeting errors due to lag (skillz are the only thing that need to register server side).

Also, their is a problem when a new monster appears, that your target may change to them, or if the monsters start to move around, the auto target will change. This needs to be change to ONLY character movements. This is MAINLY an issue when your downed (not dead) and a monster with low health runs to the next player and you switch to a full health monster, because by the time you find AND switch back, you will most likely be dead or close to it.

So i have alot of unused space around my map w/ my screen resolution, and the way the makitten et up does NOT utilize the screen area effectively. Also, when my screen is not maximized and my chat box is up (at maximum height) it blocks the fifth party member.

My suggestion it to put boundaries around the tings the players do not want it to cover, so that way i can drag my mini map over to the end of my skillz bar, or when i go to windowed mode, the chat box doesn’t cover up the fifth party member. This will actually help out with customization and appearance

Friend signed off bout an hr before i took this screen shot. They had to leave while were were in FotM, which i opened, so we just wond up 4 maning it instead of finding a fifth (lower lvls for spare toons). even after i took this Screen shot, it still said that they were on. One of countless bugs that i have noticed apeared/gotten worse since the last game update.

Later when i left the Party, it finally updated and said she was off.

Everyonce in a while when i open up my inventory, it will resiz to its original supper small size, and i have to keep stretching it back out so that way i can actually see more than 4 items at a time

The whole point is to NOT to have to type out a players name 3 or 4 times to invite them

Seams Like it is back to normal now, so idk what was wrong earlier

bump back up, need an answere

I’ve actually reported it to them in game w/ /support every time it gets worse, and they still haven’t done anything about it.
If it has been broken since launch, why is it only getting worse and not better?
is this one of the bugs the developers just don’t care about?

i still move forward, just not in the same direction, i move parallel to the sea floor while strafing

Also, if the bug has been around forever in WvW, why hasn’t it been fixed yet?

its been happening all day, no matter were i was. Also when i left the jump puzzle in EB, it kicked me to LA which is the first time ive seen it do that

I can no longer right click and invite ppl to a party. infact the only option it gives me is to report them. Id rather not report my guild mates when im trying to invite them to a pt or join theirs.

no, cuz auto run doesnt need to be held down, meaning still 1 key pressed

and If you think about it, if ur using autorun, to stafe it is only 1 key press, and if i wasnt, well its then 2 key press’. Since all keyboards have a minimum of 3 (ctrl+alt+del), what you Proposed doesn’t even make sense.

Please only post practical causes or solutions

Now I am not agreeing with what anet has done, in fact i actually agree with you b/c this and CoF p3 are the worst, but at least CoF p3 its near the beginning, not the final boss.
But most Dungeons do have one difficult path, and every time someone has found an Exploit on this particular boss, anet has fixed it rather quickly. This is one of the major reasons why i disagree with their policy of fixing exploits first, because their may not be a way for 5 random ppl to run in and finish it otherwise. So instead of fixing the problems, they fix the solution to at least be able to complete it, especially when you have come so far already

None of that is the problem, and i have the problem ALL the time (basically EVERY time)

ive reported countless things using the in game /support, and w/ the exception of major events, such as wintersday, none of them EVER get fixed, and i would simple like to know the reason behind not fixing major game issues, such as movement control’s, auto targeting, or the black lion trading companies trading post.

this has been bugged for over 8 months, since i started playing the game.

Have you ever wondered why ppl dont like to do underwater battle? It is quite simple. Your movement controls you have programmed into the game have a default orientation w/ respect to the world, not the character, and that is primarily the problem about moving around underwater.
See when someone is swimming down, especially if they are using auto run/walk to do so, and they decides to strafe left or right, they stop swimming down UNTIL they cancel ALL Their movement command AND start again to swim down (yes, highly annoying… it tells me why people like to avoid underwater battle, and why those legendary precursers are so cheap). Movement should be orientated around the character, not the world around them, because it just does not make sense to have to cancel movement commands just to get your character to move in the right direction, especially when you don’t have to do that in real life

countless places around the world, auto targeting will choose an enemy behind a wall when the rest of the party is attacking a enemy RIGHT in front of me, it will target someone that is at a right angle or behind the character, or i will target an enemy around a corner instead of the one RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME. The worst part is, i bound a key to lock auto target, and it does not work… at all! tHis has been getting worse as of late. Now i i am just running along, itll select an ally, or if i use a skill, it will think i selected an ally, when i have not seleted a target, but just trying to get from point A to point B. it also like to select allies like that when im in a larg group, like or the current living story.
this happens w/ all weapons i’ve notice, however, it is only an issue w/ ranged weapons, and underwater battle. So their is a reason why ppl like melee weapons and why they don’t like to fight underwater. Their is other issues with under water battle that i will address in another thread

I have had to open and close black lion trading post over 5 just to look up 1 item. every time i switch over to the hero panel and then back to the black lion, it WILL NOT let me type anything in the box, meaning that the way you programmed it is VERY wrong.

also, if you right click a item and do sell at trading post, it does bring up black lion trading p[ost to sell it, HOWEVER if you pay close attention, you will notice that the tab you are on is actually to BUY items from the black lion trading post, not to sell them.
this shows the how improperly coded BLTC actually is, even though the gem side of it works w/o a hitch.

LMAO tgheirs alot more than “one little thing” they have left to patch, theirs tons of em.
simple answere is they just dont care about us, so long as they still get a paycheck that is

Why do you fix exploits first? after all you release alot of bugs into the game (infact, you constantly release bugs into the game), and a lot of these bugs prevent us from completing something, or at least being able to do it right.
that means that in order to COMPLETE IT BECAUSE OF YOUR COMPANIES MISTEAK, WE HAVE TO USE AN EXPLOIT, OR JUST NOT PLAY.
after all, u had candidate trials for 2 weeks, and its still kittened up, and it kittened up some of the in game mechanics again… seams like your companies policy, make a good game, better than most, and as it starts to pick up, juts slowly make it worse. after all if you were to pay attetion to the logs of the accounts that log on, yea your getting new ppl still, but alot of ppl have slowly stoped playing, which is still a big portion of your guys paychecks

still wondering…..
starting to wonder if you even care

but i think we both know that you dont care, u just like the gamers that write your paycheck to think you care

noticed, they unstickied this thread, but never fixed the problem

So how is it that you can advertise that EVERYONE can do guild missions, even small guilds, but then make it so that their is now way that a small guild can come even remotely close to unlocking them?
In other words, it was falsely advertise that all guilds (even small ones) could EASILY unlock and do guild missions. Now its true you can help out another guild in their mission, but you don’t get any reward for it.
All I am asking is that you live up to your word and do what you say you are going to do, instead of making small guilds and players fell secluded and not able to access the full content of the game.

Just wondering if your ever going to fix the problems with typing and looking up items in the auction house along with various other random problems in the game….

With the number of problems and bugs i have notices, i’m surprised it went from b eta to full release. it actualy fels like i am playing a game stuck between its beta and full release version

becoming a bigger and bigger problem as you release other things into the game.

Clones randomly attack random targets at times, esp the dodge clones.

Targeting randomly changes.

and not all the skills act as they should all the time, in fact sometimes the skills do nothing, regardless of the situation

If i type a lowercase, it reads it as invalid name. Tons of times i have been not able to join/create a pt, even when it is not full. and your pt member search feature simple just doesnt work.
you should check out gw2lfg.com to see a better example of how it SHOULD work in game….

everytime you release a new patch without fixing the bugs that were previously their, makes the game 10 times worse because the bugs begin to affect the other code and events.
