Guild Wars 2

Rizoom.2054:

Same here. Got kicked out. On Lupi in Arah. Thanks for that!

Error alternating. Mostly ‘Connection failed. Please try again.’

:(

Yeah they did that on purpose of course. Let’s crash the servers guys……

So I wonder if there are any picture from the chinese beta, I kinda want to see what is different and why they thought it was a brilliant idea to make this chinese only.

Plinx is still bugged on several servers, on the same place too. This has been going on for months now, come on it cant be that hard to fix an event chain??

I dont think people without powerfull pc’s play gw2 anyway. But kidding aside, it does not need to be that detailed. Or perhaps an event tracker, it’s kinda hard to find things to do without turning to the map chat and that is just one little part of the map :/

Would it promote players portal hopping all over the place? Sure it would, but also easy to spot where there is something to do so not too bad I think?
An example, the harati world event or group event can’t remember. It’s a pretty long fight because there are hardly players on that map to join in.
Myself I might be tempted to take a look at the world map, or world event map if you need another and portal hop all over the place to join in the fights..
There is a need for showing events, the most asked question in the mapchat is… Any events??

I’m sure this has been discussed before but I can’t find it in the history :/

Some of you keep on comparing GW2, just one game with gw1 with full expansion. I don’t think that’s fair. Come up with competetive build with only prophecies skills and talk about build diversity. I still think the dual professions was more part of the build diversity than the skills of the class itself.

I dont care about pvp so I should have said PVE only.

My first question would be did prophecies get you hooked or the full game with all the updates and expansions, for myself it was the latter.

I can answer that. I played GW1 since it came out and the game had all the good things right there since the beginning.

The big hook of GW1 was the profession and skill systems. Anyone who enjoyed the game will tell you that. Being able to experiment and mix-and-match as much as we were able to back then spawned hundreds of awesome builds with WIDELY different playstyles.

GW2 has a boring skill system, and instead of trying to overhaul it, Anet decided it was easier to add a gear treadmill.

GW2 has a boring skill system I agree. The gw1 part not so, there were not a lot of good skills/elites in prophecies alone. You had second professions that was the part that made it so good in my eyes. I just loved that part of the game.

Rezz.8019:

All those areas were easily farmed with standard builds. At least you don’t NEED a fixed team build for GW2 areas. You CAN run with any classes and team composition and be successful.
This is coming from someone who played GW1 for a long, long time.

Except for the deep and urgoz, where you needed atleast one player with very specific skills.

GW1 Necro,

GW2, just starting since a month or two and only have elementalist, ranger and warrior. Last 2 are lvl 30 only my ele is lvl 80 full gear. So much too soon for me to say.

It sounds like you are too much into wow that you cannot complete another game that is nothing like it? If a screen full of skills is what you want then no, this is not the game for you.

Oh and if anyone from Anet is still reading this, the city part of Cantha sucked. No other words for it, ugly and repetative. The starter island, the forrest and jade sea however are great. The 2 large dungeons are also top notch.

But maybe I am alone in my view about the city part.

Isnt that always the case? GW1 had the strong and weak classes, rangers almost always left out in groups. Necros the jack of all trades but master of none.
The balance in damage or usefullnes might be just seen on one screen, not everyone is fixed at damage numbers :/

Sosyc.3025:

- DR overhaul.
- Abilities such as magic find are now shared by a group until the player is no longer in the party. The highest level on a single player will be party wide, non stacking.
- Tie in loot drops to specific bosses, areas and events to give players direction in their hunts.
- Remove the ability to sell Precursers and Legendary weapons while making them easier to obtain.
- Kicks in Dungeons would be part of a report function if player was still online, and in same instance/zone to prevent griefing.
- Alliances, Alliance chat, and Alliance halls that would function as a hub with a free waypoint would be added.
- Daily and monthly would focus around areas in pve, and wvw and not kill types or general task. (such as assist the people of " insert area" as a daily- or Helping a Npc in WvW capture or defend certain objectives)
- Adjustments to make builds within all classes viable by adjusting weaker weapons or skills.
-Equipment added to help build diversity in ascended range to cover several armor types.
- Make all ascended gear craft-able.
- Redesign mystic forge -100% chance for a new set of items requiring mastery in multiple craft disciplines, as well as Gear upgrading. This change would give the ability to upgrade an armor to the next tier using Multiple Crafts plus materials or create new items unique to the Forge that require mastery in 2-4 craft disciplines.
- Improve the search and party search ability to have a comment section and be cross server.
- Re-introduce the “design a weapon” contest, offer exclusive private beta test spots for new content to Helpful and active members of the game community to insure new content was ready and enjoyable.
- Add an ambassador system so current players could be rewarded for helping new players with content.

Ah men the design a weapon contest, but now they have the enige to make the design look like the game versions.
Why in the hell is there no bonedragonstaff in the game now…

They should have said this earlier, before the release of the full game. Most old gw1 players were counting on expansions and Cantha being the most popular one. Who would not like to see the jade sea, the echovald forest, the gothic weapons, the state of the 2 big dungeons. I feel cheated now.

Hi there,

The title says it all, plinx will not move on to the next stage in one of the chain events. Just standing there, its a quite popular event(duh) and with so little to do on cursed shore everyone is just doing penitant?

What ever happend to the concept armor that got me hooked in the first place? Orrian armor concept looked baddass.

It makes no sense to release a game in such a big area and not consider the local language?

Nice to focus on the living story and all, but my server does not feel “alive” because there are almost no players on it. If this will be solved without an expansion I don’t know.
Many people I know bought GW2 and hoping for the Cantha expansion soon after like in GW1, because it was their favorite campaing. Echovald forest and jade Sea with their 2 dungeons were very populair places.

Asian as in school girl uniform, or Asian as in Thai/Chinese/Japanese traditional armour wearing warriors?

Guesting would be not needed if they maybe migrate some of the less populated servers together. I play on a server that seems to have almost no players on it anymore. It seems Anet did not think the population could slink so fast :/
