Just did it a second time for daily and can’t figure out how it could be impossible. Slightly slower now but not any where near difficult in the random groups I was in at least.

have 2 wins 2 losses, not bad for the first week. As someone mentioned above it will not be long before it is back to 100%. People that do not participate and still want the rewards will move on to something that they can stand around. As for rewards, I think teq is amazing now for what it gives you.

Not just southern hemisphere, while I am myself eligible (though i dont think i have the skills to get a chance to win anything, but that is another issue :P), being from Denmark, i noticed that Norway aint in the eligible list, either despite both Denmark and Sweden are there, and those 3 countries are very similar on pretty much everything xD

Norway is not a EU country. They are part of some trade agreements but are not a full member.

[QoL Suggestion] Stacking rewards boxes

Yargesh.4965

I see a lot of stuff in your bank that is not worth keeping such as the wintersday harvesting tools.
Hardly Anets fault if you have a hording issue.

I do use the harvesting tools for farming and Anet can help reduce bank and inventory spaces by making rewards boxes stackable. You will know the struggle if you pvp much.

I would suggestion putting the term Suggestion in your title and change the title to clearly indicate you want them to become stackable.

The expansion is still “expanding” the core game, nothing has changed there.

Just had some very kind person loan me the money so i could list the item. The issue now is that im trying to send the money back to him but i can only send 10g of the 20g he lent. Apparently ive reached the limit for transfers for my account. Any idea how i can get him the rest of his money?

Wait a week or until tomorrow depending on when the weeks transfer starts.

I’m one of those players who bought the game recently, less than a month ago to be precise, for its full retail price of 40$ and I’m not bothered about the base game getting bundled together with the expansion. It will entice more people to give it a whirl.

However, the expansion being 50$ for even those who already have the base game makes me wait with the purchase. Most likely until it goes on sale. Not because I wish to boycott it or disagree with Arenanet’s pricing strategy but because putting down 90$ on a single game in a month is just something I can’t justify. That’s half a year worth of subscription.

I’ll continue to support the gem shop through a 10$ gem purchase each month but the expansion is a no-go for now. That being said, I wish Arenanet luck with the launch and I do hope that those who buy the expansion will enjoy it.

If you bought via ANETs site you can get a refund for your purchase and then buy the game at 50. From what I understand though you lose your current account.

Ok Vayne. You make excelent points, and I agree with you at some stuff.

I definately don’t have a degree in law, but what you are saying to me is basically “unless you work at Anet, or have an employee with you to prove it, you have nothing”.

So, what could a consumer do in that case? Since by your logic he has absolutely nothing, just continue pushing support until they refund him?

I’ve seen people saying they had success, I’ve seen others saying they got nothing, I’ve seen others saying they had to push and push, until things worked. Is that how we as consumers should accept things?

Some times it works, some times it doesn’t? Just because it was 10$ it’s ok to treat the situation lightly?

My logic is, I’ve seen companies run ads for television saying “Hey, pay what you want for this product” and then all you could choose was how many payments to make, taken to the law, people won products paying as little as a dollar.

Yeah, they had no intent to deceive, it was an oversight, but mistake or not, the campaign said something and that wasn’t true. It’s the same here, they said something, and that is no longer true.

Yes they messed up, yes they are doing what they can to give rebates. They will come out with a statement next week I am sure. Yes a core group will still be flipping out. I am also fairly sure that additions will be made to all levels of pre-order, not a precursor for all as I am sure at least one person will write is minimum but probably the beta tab we get will be permanent instead of removed on release.

how is paying some other player 50 gold taking money from the economy in any way more that as of now?

You do pay a 15% fee so if more money is transferred then more money will be pumped out the economy.

Yes but that happens now anyway, they may actually take less out since people won’t be buying/making the other mats required for weapons/armour.

Guild Halls, guild missions, and HoT

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Yargesh.4965

Yargesh.4965

from what I understand the people who do not get HoT will still be able to do what can be done now. All current guild missions, banking, boosts etc can be accessed in Lions Arch. Guild Halls themselves are in the new zone so only those with the expac can get to them.

But they can’t utilize the arena, right? I think the biggest feature of guild hall is that arena, I guess many guilds will stick to OS and PvP arena for first couple of months.

If you don’t buy it no, you can’t use the facilities that are available if you buy it.

I think a better solution to all of this is to just use it as a way of culling the herd. The people whining about HoT at the existing price points don’t deserve to have it, and I’ll be happier playing in the new maps without them around.

I would safely bet that a chunk of these people saying they would ‘never’ buy the pre-sale have already done just that.

It was never my intention to have created such a polarizing topic that would garner this much attention, it was a point I felt should be made, even though I really should have know better.

This topic has brought more attention to myself then I am comfortable with, and It is sad that many of you feel the need to add me to your friend list in game so you can send me private messages with personal insults and threats as soon as I log in, insults that have nothing to do with and make no mention of this topic at hand.

Please stop harassing me in game, that kind of behavior is totally unnecessary.

Report, block and hope they are removed. That type of behavior is way past a disagreement veering into obsession to be right.

See, a lot of this reminds of the smaller firestorm from people with two legendaries losing their minds that they weren’t going to get anything special with the new wardrobe.

They aren’t kittened about what they’re getting. They’re kittened because they think someone else is getting more, which is honestly a VERY kittenty way to approach anything. Those people need to be ignored.

I agree with the OP. I paid money years ago with doubts about the game, one I hated GW1 and two games with easy in-game currency conversions from real money inputs I found to explode with inflation. Both those things turned out to be a non issue. If they where an issue I would just consider it money poorly spent and moved on.
Same thing now, I paid for the pre features. If the expansion somehow does not live up to what I think it will I will be unhappy but life goes on.

Better a constant LS then a delayed EXP

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Yargesh.4965

Yargesh.4965

I much preferred LS Season One, and it’s design and release cadence. I wasn’t fond of Season 2, at all. I never asked for an expansion, nor for ‘permanent’ content.

I can’t comment on HoT, as it’s not been released yet, but I hope it provides enough to do until the next expansion, if that is the release model we will have in the future.

Yes I agree with this. Non permanent is a draw for me, a sort of I was there type thing. A mix of non permanent with a permanent dungeon/instance whatever would have been perfect I think.
The things they tried I think needed more time to mature, they hopped around too much. But with a population with the attention span of a gnat what could they do?
Will need to wait and see.

Have to be honest, this thread reads like a commercial.

You know, one of those ones that is full of glowing “customer testimonials”?

It’s kind of funny to me how that can happen in a single thread, when other parts of the forum are full of constructive criticism (with no developer replies).

If you take a second you will notice that Robby Steins first post was about my joke (very well done Robby). So while drama posts and fascinating multi-volume threads of fixing the failure that is the game could be a quagmire to step into I really don’t see a problem with them treading lightly over it.
