Guild Wars 2

Hey, Arcade setting on Racing games in the past have given a handicap to the player that is behind, to help catch up to the winning player. The loosing player generally still looses, but keeps playing because he still feels like he has a fighting chance.

I know what you are going to say.. “people should be mature and keep fighting regardless” Yes! in an ideal world. but it isnt, and alot of people really need the illusion of a fighting chance to not just give up entirely.

so;

Reverse / Change the Orbs so that When a team is loosing really badly, the gods come and give them an orb to help them in their fight.

Straight forward Psychology to help people to stop giving up.

Bard Class for the WIN!!!

Race: There are enough Humanoid races, how about a Krait, or Squidlike race with an asian cultural influence.

An Underwater Race Starting area would be awesome. With a storyline that is 55% underwater, using the Endless Ocean area on the SW corner of the worldmap and the Islands nearby as the main zones.

This would also give Anet a good excuse to flesh out the Underwater Weapons/Skills/Utilities. MAYBE, add some new underwater only utilities and elites.

Class: Something along the lines of a Ritualist, but with more emphasis on the Ritual aspect of things.. Like make all his/her skills/ animations move like a ritual dance or something, that can seamlessly combine with eachother.

OR Voodoo Priest. Main point would be to Support Boon from a distance, OR Condition in melee. Skills that focus on helping your friends or hinder your enemies. more ability to interrupt skills,

Well to be honest GW2 copied a ton of rvr from Dark Age of Camelot…

And thats why it’s so kittening awesome.!

if Warhammer followed the DAOC formula for rvr exactly.. like Placing siege weapons anywhere you want and kitten like that then I would still be playing that game .

WvW is not completely dominated by AoE. Start running with a small group of people, and you will find out why.

or just watch the Youtube videos of small groups of people completely destroying the zergs.

In response to the OP.

You’ve got it right. The only way to enforce respect from a business is to boycott. So do that if you like. But honestly its too late for that now.. Anet has made their monies.

A long time ago I did something like what you are suggesting. I payed for and played a few games that Ubisoft published. They ended up being good ideas, but badly executed, and all they had to do was patch some of the issues they were having, and the games would have been amazing, but the lack of respect for the player base, or completely ignoring their customers, they never fixed any of the issues. Frustrating!!

Then I realized, if someone ignores me, I naturally stop trying to pay any attention to them and move on..

Well now I completely ignore any game that has Ubisoft’s name attached to it. And since then I have never “lost” another dollar to one of their sub par games, and I hope no one else has either.

So far Anet is trying really hard to keep their players happy.. but it seems alot of their problems are because they have developed NEW systems and are still working out the Bugs.. which takes a few YEARS probably. But at the very least we see progress.

If they had stuck to the tried and true systems they had developed for GW1 no one would be complaining about the problems but maybe just the lack of innovation. So here we stand, acting all Narcissistic Human and expecting the best without any regard for the process they are going through..

all I can say is In your face and not everyone agrees with you.. so do what you can and stop spending money but trying to convince others is like pulling teeth, so good luck.

I going to chime in and say,

“you mad Bro?”

+1 (times a billion)

I want this so badly.. Im always holding down the mouse button to accomplish this anyways, and my kitten hand gets sore as a result. This should have been an option from Launch.

Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please

Thats right..

there is another way for Anet to make money… Instead of sucking the life and fun out of the game for people who like to farm.

they can make new exciting armours and weapons and such for people to craft or purchase with Karma / Gold / Gems.

They can make new Dungeons where people need to pay in GEMS only to get in. One time only or large Lump sum ..

ArenaNet, you do not have to make life difficult for your player base anymore, keep the rewards high, people like that sort of thing.. just find a different way to get GEM purchases, instead of evil manipulation.. nobody’s being fooled.

OP is wrong.. there are clearly defined roles here.

Warrior = DPS
Guardian = DPS
Theif = DPS
Necromancer = Conditions
Ranger = Condition/DPS hybrid

Elementalist = Useless Kitten
Engineer = Useless Kitten

ArenaNet Sucks the Big One.

i was going to spend money to buy gems, but now its like why kitten bother. I don’t want to help a game company that makes me feel duped.

Arena Net has a Hate on for their Fans.

1. VERY obvious, no testing was done on these dungeon changes.

2. VERY obvious, they dont want you to have fun.

3. VERY obvious, they dont want you to be frustrated.

4. VERY obvious, they want to punish new players that havent joined the game yet.

5. NOT SO obvious, they want you to spend money on Gems.

Not only do you have to spend the next 5 years to get all those mats and meet all those conditions just to get a visual upgrade to BitFrost.

Bitfrost looks like kitten.

Im playing the Mac Beta, on my 3.1Ghz i5, 4GB iMac, with OS-X 10.8.1 and It is AWESOME. So far no issues what so ever!

it runs sweeter than my MSI GT780-DXR gaming laptop. Im consistently getting better frames.

THANK YOU ARENANET!!

Hey,

I had the best vacation a week ago. But I came back to find that my account was hacked. So I sent in a Ticket on Sept/10/2012 and I have just received my email with all the details to get started playing again.

Thank you so much Anet ! i knew you could do it.

im going to be using new details for every game I play from now on. Yes all my Gold is missing. Yes all my crafting materials are Gone. Basically anything Not Soulbound or Account Bound was taken. But the good thing is that I still have my Character, and my account.

Ticket resolved in under 5 days.! thank you.

Wyrd.
