Guild Wars 2

Mirta.5029:

Somehow I’m still able to catch people in every zone that I go to. Lion’s Arch is always on overflow of course, but I’ve hit the notifications that WvW is full too and also have seen plenty of people leveling from scratch again. When I joined my server at the start of the game the population was medium and it doesn’t look like it has fallen in those 3 months at all.

And please do tell me why you think LA and WvW has more players than in other zones. Though I’d also like an answer to why other zones are left out empty. Thank you

Mirta.5029:

1. The game is far from dying. Almost all servers are either full or high population

This depends on the server limits. You have no idea what you’re talking about. Nowadays high/full is like yesterday’s low.

Peets.8529:

Why is everyone so obsessed about making gold?
Isn’t the point of playing a game to have fun?
Is it a race to get the most gold so you can buy what?
Stop farming and start playing the game, you will stop getting disappointed.
Otherwise find a farm game.

Because sometimes you can’t have fun without money in real life, just like in this game.

I’ve spent 3 weeks just to get 2 POI’s in EB. It’s hard but have patience, and try to check the maps daily.

tyu.9470:

Plinx was NEVER the best way to earn gold. Ever. Apart from that yeah they dont want us to earn gold i guess.

I agree

mcwurth.2081:

the game is what? 2 months old? give it some freaking time. it was ready to be released but they have never said it is FULLY done. and yes they said we release it WHEN it is ready. i have yet to find a game to be 100% finished on release. always a patch here or there.

The game was released at 25th of august.

God Of Fissures.8627:

there is no fun way to make money in this game. it is all a repetitive grind.

I agree, plus to this, I do not want to run FoTM nor want to kitten up the Trading post. Hell, I think I’ll always stay poor.

All betas and since launch (25th)

30g (I know)
4. Do you have a max level character (s)? (number if more than one)
Yes, two of them
5. List 1-3 areas / zones / events / tp; where you spend most of your time for income
I do not like/want to grind; so, none?

Never did

Professions & Combat (More skills, More trait options, more weapon choice if possible). Plus ZERG WINNING! in WvW, please guys, sort this mess out.

Thanks, from a customer

Yes, there is mate.
What’s the point of playing an elementalist over a healer?
Or a tank over a guardian? A dps’er over a thief?

Well, they might be working. But I’m sure as hell we are not going to get what other people did. Like 2 precursors from a chest.

could you post some tips?

dalendria.3762:

“Why keep playing if I have done everything?” If you truly did everything and enjoyed it, then maybe there is nothing more for you to do.

So this is what we all paid for?

illgot.1056:

Fractals has pretty much killed the game for me. I hate repeating dungeons or dynamic events constantly… which probably means GW2 is just not for me.

Any MMO for that matter.

Atleast Aion rewarded me for grinding the hell out of the game.

Vakirauta.6397:

Title says honest balance system, topic inside focuses on thieves.

Actually the majority of the concerns I have focuses on engineers but I tried to keep a balance between the examples in my post.

tigirius.9014:

1. kits don’t give temporary buffs when equipped but the temporary weapons of elementalists are (one of the most OP classes of the game)

You can not be serious.

Title says honest balance system, topic inside focuses on thieves.

Healix.5819:

The island is an evolving one which will change depending on the direction ArenaNet takes it.

We stormed the island and took control of it. Now we keep the island safe, readying it for the workers of Tyria to move in. Based on the tourists around the island, it’ll probably become some type of island resort.

In the other direction, the ancient karka wasn’t actually killed. It is currently stuck, encased in hardened lava, waiting, rebuilding a new and stronger shell. One day, long after they finished building the island, it will rise, gather its army, raze everything, kill all the tourists and exact its revenge. Then, we start again. (it would be like a month long dynamic event containing “1 time only” along with normal events that resets every other or couple of months)

Nice imagination.

“We don’t make grindy games”

Well OP, I think this is something broken.

Yeah, thats all the game needs

Dear Toymaker Tixx,

I’ve been very good this year, keeping myself patient whatever your owners has been doing. I’d very much like;

Full-time balancing
More skills
More trait options
No more events that lasts a week
Content lasts more than a week
Freedom

Sincerely, a customer

We are patient. But knowing we have lost our luck for a precursor is frustrating. I mean, come on.. some trial-account players got 2 precursors from one chest.

whykt.9578:

We have having a great fight with SFR and Elona in Tier 2 – join us!

oh you typo

Desolation has dropped a tier down (No more zerg, yay!), people that are looking for a competitive match are welcome in Deso and IRON.

ANet still did not understand that we players do not want 1 week long events full of lag and disappointment in general. A week of “fun” (for ANet and nobody else it seems) then nothing. This is what events are. We want change in the game.

10 days passed, no word

zargnath.9524:

IRL I would actualy say work hard to get rewarded. But the problem is I play this game for fun. I have already payed 60$ to have fun and I would prefer not having to grind to have fun when it would be possible to create an option that wouldn’t force me to grind before having fun.

So you would have a problem in real life about an option that would allow you to be rewarded without working hard?

I am curious why you think an online game should have easy access to fun while real life shouldn’t.

Because it’s an online game.

I wish I would get in an overflow anywhere but LA.

Just saw this guy while playing with an alt

Did anyone else witnessed this? Please take your time and watch. I have sent a ticket but I do not think this is the onlyone.

1. Same as OP
2. 2 months ago
3. All my friends left. No uniqueness in proffessions and between other players skill & builds-wise. Boring.

Maybe it is not. But overall the game is all about grinding.

Why was this not made ingame?

Loumy.7841:

If they only plan to communicate via narrow minded surveys – they’re not gonna accomplish anything meaningful.
Narrowminded in the sense, that this is about a lot more than an event.

And they are afraid to do it ingame.

I’ll only be saying that I agree with the OP, got nothing else to say.

Never used, never will

Crater.1625:

Raids are basically just zergs with enough self-delusion to think that they’re not a zerg.

Everything is a zerg with a #number# of players together in your logic.

Soutalgon.3827:

where do I send in a ticket?

en.support.guildwars2.com

Everyone, let’s just send in tickets to let them know how many people couldn’t get what.

azmodeus.3409:

sorry don’t think you can get a second chest…i know i tried.

We couldn’t get “A” chest. Wish I could go on up for a second one.

Fiennes.9568:

Nobody got legendaries, don’t be silly.

It was a fun, extended event. And I can understand there being some frustrations for some, but for the majority it was excellent.

More please, ArenaNet.

So it’s excellent when the majority is being pleased. Alright.

Sarcasm?

Check the game bugs section.

If it’s well made, raids.

Your reward was being entertained for a few hours.

Stop expecting ego-stroking, self-image-validating “virtual property” and you might actually enjoy a game for what it is.

Here comes the White Knight. Get the hell outta here.

Here comes the ad hominem, must not have an actual argument to refute with.Sounds like your problem, not mine.

You want an actual argument?
I wasted 3 hours for a very laggy zerg, kept doing the same kitten for hours (though I almost fell asleep) and then in the end I and many other people got DC’d so that we couldn’t get kitten. No sir, this clearly is Anet’s problem. On the other hand, if you got the loot yourself, please don’t come on here and play the devil’s advocate.

I sent in a ticket, waiting for a response

Krion.5986:

Some people got legendaries, rares and skins.

And some people couldnt get kitten because they got dc minutes before the boss was killed.

Please edit the title.. it gets on my nerves to see the topic on top. Yes, I’m one of those people who couldn’t get the loot after 3 hours of.. an epic battle -in Anet’s words.

We were disconnected just five minutes before the karka was defeated. Couldn’t get the loot.

stayBlind.7849:

Why fix the broken features of the vanilla game when you can just add new broken content on top of it?

Give us the skill&build options like in GW1. I want my character and the profession to be unique. No, this uniqueness is not based on gear, it’s the skill. And no, this game is not about player skill, at.. the moment.

Starhawk.2958:

On a serious note, get on a server that doesn’t suck at WvW

Goodluck finding one

I agree, but something i’d like point out is that isn’t their first promise that was broken. The way they advertised this game, the whole thing was false*. Most notable one is the endless grind.

Sent, have fun.
