Confusion about meaning of "nerf"

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Vlawde.1895

Vlawde.1895

The term nerf as it relates to games came about because of the nerf bat…a foam bat that isn’t going to hit a baseball anywhere. So it means, as said above, to weaken…whether it’s a boss, a dungeon, a class, whatever

That doesnt work, I tried it. I ran through once on overflow, then went out of overflow and went through. When I zoned in and out several times into overflow again everything that I had done before was still done. Had to guest to be able to get all 75 acts

New Dailies

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Vlawde.1895

Vlawde.1895

I’ll agree with some here, the dailies seem like a chore..a checklist you have to get done, things you have to go out of your way to do that you wouldn’t normally do in the course of gameplay. It seems grindy to me.

I had never paid attention to them before, but yesterday everyone was talking about them so I gave it a shot. After several hours of my normal play I had hardly any of them. I spent several more hours purposely grinding them out…doing stuff I don’t really enjoy doing.

I feel sorry for those who may only have an hour or so of playtime a day.

Guesting is Coming

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Vlawde.1895

Vlawde.1895

The other suggestion is simply allow players to flag 1 home server on NA and 1 home server on EU. The account data is only on one datacentre at any one time (and can guest out into that region), but the player is allowed free transfers between their NA and EU homes. Any other server transfer is paid. There is no WvW conflict since NA does not fight EU.
.

Exactly…a simple solution at least for now

Down a few pints for me, glitch. You guys have some pretty good beer.

Yeah, the region thing isn’t what we had hoped for, but that doesn’t change anything far as the union or its purpose.

One thing that could help this whole issue, at least in part, is this:

As in WoW, EQ and other similar games, you could have multiple toons on the same account on different servers and regions. Why not here? Then at least folks could play in either region

Vlawde.1895

Not being able to guest in different regions defeats the purpose of guesting to a very large degree. Why wasn’t the fact this wouldn’t be possible announced at launch? It would have changed the way people and guilds chose servers and regions to a large degree. The cross server/region guild I am a part of was created because it was thought when guesting was implemented we could play together. This essentially divides our guild, and the player base in general

PS for anyone saying that this was doable in GW1, please understand that it was not. GW1 had a completely different infrastructure that made something that looked like this possible. They are not the same thing.

Well, why wasn’t this game designed with the same or similar infrastructure? If the region restrictions were made clear at the beginning, this wouldn’t be such a blow to the player base.

Wow, this totally sucks. Since the NA/eu restrictions were not in gw1, many assumed it would be done here as well.

I’m part of a cross server NA/eu guild and union that was created in anticipation we would all be able to play together once guesting was implemented. This throws a wet blanket over the entire game

Default graphics settings?

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Vlawde.1895

Vlawde.1895

When you install GW2 on a computer, laptop, whatever, do the graphic settings automatically adjust to that device? I’ve been dinking with the overall settings, Auto detect, best perfomance and for best looks. I’m guessing autodetect will find the best settings for your rig, a compromise between performance and looks, or???

Vlawde.1895

You sure rebooting the game? I haven’t done that but a few times saw seven servers full, but mostly six. This by just either logging from game to char select and bringing up and closing down the server screen.

Would be good to know for sure so I’m not wasting my time

Question on changing servers

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Vlawde.1895

Vlawde.1895

I’ve been doing that and sorting by order each time so full at top, then very high etc. Each time I open and close server window and do that, does the order of ones that are, say full, mean anything? Or just random?

Just wondering if the top full server is the fullest, and the bottom one closest to being just very high versus full

Question on changing servers

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Vlawde.1895

Vlawde.1895

So I understand you go the char select screen and bring up servers, transfer to the one you want…assuming it isnt full. But if it is, and you camp out on the screen does the server status refresh itself, or do you have to close out and reopen servers screen from character select?

2 accounts at the same time?

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Vlawde.1895

Vlawde.1895

Not sure about GW, but most other games allow you to run two separate accounts on the same computer at once. It’s called boxing. I ran two to three accounts and had my own little group going in Everquest at times. One guy had multiple computers and regularly played four to five toons at once…and did it very well

It’s whatever you want it to be. It was created as chat channel for companionship, help etc, so at its foundation it is just that…a community initiative to draw people together. There is also a guild, but not in the traditional sense, since the union encompasses all servers and countries…hopefully guesting will come soon. So no, you don’t have to be in the attached guild or represent.

Lower level gear upgrades..buy or drops?

My guardian is now level 20. For the most part I just upgrade my gear when something drops that is better than what I have, although I have gotten a few things at Black Lion.

I guess my concern is spending lots of money on something that in several levels/days of play that I’ll outgrow.
