GW2 Becoming P2W

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

WingLegacy.7159

I am sure my thread will be deleted and mean warned cause its not the kinda topic anet wants discussed on there forums. I do ask everyone act polite and be respectful. I like to have a genuine and honest discussion about the current state of the game and where its headed.

I have noticed over the past few month’s they have been adding more and more cosmetic item’s to the GEM store. Which is fine except they are not balancing these cosmetic updates on the gem store with in game updates of equal quality.

The idea behind GW2 was to have a game with no vertical progression. Instead the entire game would be based around a horizontal progression. Where the only things you would have to grind for where skin’s.

That’s fine I can understand taking the game in that direction. Instead of the main focus being armor which is easy to get it was getting skins. Having a rare, exclusive, good looking armor/weapon skin is the entire focus of the game. That is why people go for legendary.

Lately they have released all new skin sets on the GEM Store for 800 gem’s while releasing very little if any new skins to the player population. They have also released RNG based weapon skins and RNG based dye’s both cosmetic upgrades.

With the game revolving around cosmetics and not armor its self adding these items to the Gem store in such large quantity’s essential makes the game P2W. This is almost the equivalent of a standard MMO adding top tier armor that can only be obtained thought differentiate content to there in game store.

Maybe the focus should be switched on the gem store maybe they should add more stat item’s that are easily obtainable anyway to the gem store. Maybe a generic set of exotics for 800gems. That can be gotten for new alts or toon’s would be far more appropriate then the current trend of cosmetic items in this game.

Imo you dont know what you’re saying… is there anything that can kill a player in pvp in the gemstore? NONE so how is it pay to win?

Thank you Anet for listening.

And i thought they had a plan that they’re going to sell glowing dyes soon.

Then I would delete my Juggernaut if that happens..

They could also add build templates without affecting current system. Make it so you have to reset your traits before you can use one and then the template just re-allocates them automatically so you don’t have to go through and pick each thing separately each time. That would be functionally the same as the templates in GW1 and it would save a lot of time and hassle for people who use many different builds, but it would also fit with the current system.[/quote]

That would be a good solution. Same system but add the save build/template option.

I played Gw1 for 6yrs and yea build changing is awesome load any build anytime. I love to see that in Gw2 but thats not we have atm. But its still acceptable compared to other mmos that you need to buy and spend real money to reset.

As far I I know Gw2 has the lowest fee to reset build. Some mmos would require you to use only real money to do it…

In all Mmo that I played I normally experienced 1-3hrs downtime either doing maintenance or updates(every week). Anet rarely do this and sometimes they’re even doing maintenance while game is up.

Dear Anet,

Getting this achievement gives you 25Ap. Isn’t it there should be much more rather than to receive 25AP only? At least make it a formal title or something else?

I’ve logged into different servers and have noticed that for some odd reason, its dead during my usual gaming hours. I just returned from a long hiatus from playing and i just don’t see that many people outside the cities! Is there some alternative leveling mechanic that i can’t seem to figure out? or is the weekday just dead for most servers?

Cause most players are zerging champs in Frost gorge sound prolly.

[Merged]1year post launch. How Anet feel on Trinity?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: WingLegacy.7159

WingLegacy.7159

To each man his own I’ll say.

It all depends on the player, Guild Wars 2 was fun while I had played it, just came back to see how “Alive” it actually was, and it still seems pretty much dead.

In “My Opinion”, Guild Wars 2 had an incredibly unique system going for it. But, coming from the old Guild Wars, too much had changed, some for the better, and some for the worst. The Trinity Removal for me, “Seemed” like a wicked idea at first, but then after countless of deaths, wipes, etc, etc. The whole idea of not having a “Main” healer, nor tank, seemed to be more or less frustrating than an interesting idea. Of course that’s my opinion.

I’m now drawing my attention towards FF 14, and in no way am I promoting it, as I’m pretty much already bored of that game as well having done everything you can until further expansions. But the trinity system felt so “Good” after playing Guild Wars 2. Everything seemed more controlled no unwanted deaths, or wipes, and it kind of gave “meaning” as to what it was like to be a “Tank” or “Healer” again.

Eliminating the Trinity is an awesome idea, and no others have done it before (not to my knowledge), but it seems like it doesn’t really promote the whole idea of “Teamwork”, and “Cooperation”, where as it more or less became about “keeping yourself” alive.

Again my opinion. Don’t take anything from me too seriously though, I’m still debating whether or not I should get back into GW 2, but recalling the last time I tried, and seeing dead area’s everywhere, where as FF 14 is literally full in most area’s, doesn’t sound too tempting. To each man his own though.

Guess your right don’t take anything seriously from you. Try to go to BG and see your definition of dead. And teamwork? Try to participate in one of Teq fights or maybe try a higher fractals cause I’ll take more than not just keeping yourself alive.

Gear Treadmill...

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: WingLegacy.7159

WingLegacy.7159

and just like in Vayne´s thread the whole “defense” (which, quite frankly, I don´t think is necessary personally) you have is sophism.

Yup, its typical PR language:

How do you make something bad sound better – call it something else. Invent anything really or stupid reason will do.

Its typical gear treadmill no different than any other game similar game out there with exception that almost any other game does it better and with less grind.

Ignorance is not fooling anyone really.

Can you give a example of a game without gear progression? (Except for Gw1)

Please do not destroy this game

WingLegacy.7159

I think all these angry posts sound quite ridiculous. Here are my thoughts!

-First: Anet stated last November that Ascended gear was supposed to be in game at launch, but didn’t make it do to budget and time constraints.

-Second: There is NO higher tier content being added with ascended weapons. Meaning you don’t even need them for any part of the game other than just having them with their MINIMAL stat increase. If you don’t want one, don’t craft one. It will

not matter.

-Third: This is not a GearTreadmill nor is it a ItemSpiral. Those occur when new tiers are added every 2-4 months. It has now been over a year and we don’t even have a full tier added ( just rings, back pieces, trinkets and the soon to be weapons).

The thought of rage quitting a game over a new tier weapon with a tiny stat increase just sounds absurd. Do people expect Anet to still just hand out weapon skins 5 years down the road? I love new skins, but skin wars 2 won’t survive. People will not care in 5 years when they have over 600 new weapon skins in their bank. I think they have found a great balance to please both types of players. New tier for those who wont better stats but minimal enough so that no one needs them to appeal to those who don’t want them.

in the end I feel really bad for everyone who has or will rage quit. When all is said and done, I think Anet is doing a great job here. The game is growing, changing and in my opinion getting better with age. I feel bad for everyone who will miss out and such a great MMO down the road.

+1

so what? you guys wanna quit cause you got something to do? what do you want Anet to do?

Bravo! Well said finally someone with sense!

I dont think so, i dont care if i do it 100 times and then eventually get my prize! Its a part of challenge and progression. Now you guys tell which mmo you can easily get prestige skins? And btw opening of the chest is a part of reward but it is also random LUCK…..

Lol! Thats why Anet did this so no can abuse low lvls areas so every map youll go it will still be a challenge cause you cant abuse them and thats WONDERFUL!

Cultural Armor - Overpriced?

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: WingLegacy.7159

WingLegacy.7159

Look guys Anet is giving different ways to acquire good gears do dungeon, buy lvl 80 exotic gear with your karma or get it with gold so its just a matter of preference and not that you really have to. But we still have work hard get these thngs…

it isn’t even exotic gear(at least i don’t think it is), which is why it’s overpriced

I think 42k per piece is reasonable so that we players have something to work for. In Aion you will grind like hell and resort to make twinks just get good gears like killing thousand players just to get those reps. The point is every mmo you play if you want something then work hard for it. This is the challenge in any mmo i believe…

Hi Anet, is it possible to have an option where we can save our builds like Gw1? So we can switch depending in our needs in that way we can play with builds as well without paying to reset it. Hope in future updates well have an option….

Any way to reset NPCs in story quests?

I was in the position to find myself in a mission where all the npc’s died too. I used pull and kite techniques to take out the mobs one by one, and then I went on with the mission.
