Guild Wars 2

Haha, I also wish I could unaccountbound my Incinirator. Got bored of it quickly

Another solution .. Begin to play pvp, and never run out of charges ^^

I have stopped farming, since in the long run it makes the game boring to play.
Now I just casually play a couple dungeons a day and pvp.
With the dungeon tickets + reward track weapon chests I just try my luck in mf with all I make.
Have been lucky twice last 2 months, so if your lucky it pays off

But in the beginning when the game was new I did enjoy it however.. Have farmed for at least 2k hours.. so def don’t have a problem with it, whatever is fun to you is what works ..

Taku.6352:

Just finish the legendary that you were going for originally and then sell it on the tp and buy the one you want now.

Did you read my post?

Wanze.8410:

I think one reason is because they concentrate storage for mats.
Usually, you can store 250 mats in 1 slot, if you store a gift, it includes 4×250 mats.
If the gift stacks as well, which i believe it does, you can potentially store 250k mats in one storage slot.

Hmm, maybe ur right .. Maybe they could add a vendor thou, like I wrote before:
“If people could profit on the gifts or something on the tp .. Don’t really know if that would be a problem, then maybe a vendor who could trade the gift into something else would be a solution. Since there is difference on the pricing, he could charge a 50 g fee or something :P”

Hoaxintelligence.4628:

I dont think Arenanet is going to change some options to make it tradeable just for 1 person that maked a mistake.

Well, probably not .. But it’s worth a shot
And I doubt i’m the only one this have ever happened to ^^ Many idiots like me in game

If people could profit on the gifts or something on the tp .. Don’t really know if that would be a problem, then maybe a vendor who could trade the gift into something else would be a solution. Since there is difference on the pricing, he could charge a 50 g fee or something :P

So I tried my luck and asked support if it would be possible to trade a gift I have. Since i’ve regretted what legendary I want to craft.
As I expected they weren’t allowed to do that xD

But I just don’t get why they can’t be made sellable on trading post? I mean, if you are allowed to sell the legendary, why not “gift of -insert legendary-” ?

I can imagine other people regretting aswell, especially if they loot another precursor, or begin to play another class more, that uses different wep types etc.

It’s just really depressing to look at 200-400 g (I don’t remember what the gift is worth xD) laying in my bank that I don’t feel motivated to craft. I would do it just to list it on tp for maybe months before it sells.
Plus, the other legendary I want I would get much faster cause of cheap precursor.
I have only crafted legendaries to keep so far, and don’t really feel like changing that. The journey feels like a part of the legendary ^^
Just to add, i’m fully aware of it beeing my own fault. I should have just waited with the gift to the end. But, it’s an expensive mistake to make, so would be so nice to be able to get rid off it, for more than 6 silver !!!! (troll a bit harder anet ^^)

Please consider this anet.

If there is some huge reason I’m missing to why this wouldn’t be good, then pls let me know ..

Yeah, and cosmetics does really work great as “endgame progression”.
Only game i’ve seen it work this great though. I can’t think of any other game with this much cosmetic options. You can create really unique characters. Now we just need the ability to dye weapons

You left one game, tried something new and didn’t like it.

Now you are back to the game you were not satisfied with in the beginning and praise it?

Sometimes I have a hard time to understand people…

He never said he wasn’t satisfied. I’ve taken like 10 breaks from GW2, doesn’t mean I don’t like the game. Just nice to play other games from time to time, and you do eventualy get bored of the GW2.
But 60$ = +4k hours (for me) seems like a pretty good deal to me. And I always keep coming back to the game

With the little content that was added over the last twelve monthes (that’s still around), it won’t be too long for another break, at least if he was bored by the same old same…

There is potential added content to last for at least 100’s of hours, if he is an obsessive collecter 1000’s of hours.

And if he gets bored again after 100 hours, so what? .. The game will always be available for him to launch up again at a time he feel like it.

Yeah, if there is one thing that makes you appreciate GW2 it’s playing another mmo.

Yeah, you are actually really lucky Free skin!

2 rangers
My ranger was my first character, and the only one I have with 100% wc
So wanted another ranger for pvp. So I don’t have to switch weapones everytime I go from pve to pvp.

Cuddy.6247:

Vayne.8563:

It was DESIGNED to be about skins, not stats.

And still they release skins at a kitten poor rate and those that are released aren’t much different from all of the past skins they’ve released.

Yeah, this game is about skins but when what it’s about is handled so poorly are you really surprised that people start interjecting their own ideas of an endgame on what is, essentially, a blank slate?

I don’t think there is another game with as many skins as gw2 after just a little over 2 years.

Rank farming servers shouldn’t exist in the first place.
I always ignore those. I really have a hard time understanding howcome people enjoy it.
It’s not like there is any difference from beeing rank 1 and 80. Other than title/ap/finisher. That you get anyway by enjoying the game (more importantly LEARNING the game), in time ..

I’m only at rank 54 after 2 years of playing pvp from time to time, but I don’t see any reason to rush it.

Mysticjedi.6053:

When I watched it, it doesn’t look like a map. It looks like a dungeon. It is very linear and the idea of paths would fit with the other plant dungeon, Twilight Arbor.

Maybe it’s a raid

Wow, Now I want to actually start playing the living story. Good thing I have all episodes unlocked.

I just want to actually try that boss. Wasn’t playing at that time last year :S

Xenon.4537:

You can get the entire GW1 complete pack on steam sale for like 20 bucks. Keep an eye out for it. You would spend that much in the gem store anyway. Why not have an entire game full of content instead? It’s not that hard to unlock the skins the normal way.

GW1 have NEVER been on a sale on steam. You save some if you buy the complete edition, but don’t ever expect to see % taken off.

Jovel.5706:

It.. costed 0 gems. Something tells me the Wizard’kitten was meant to be a one time gift, a holiday hat to those who played during Wintersday.

So I have to disagree, holiday hats should be exclusive to those who played during the holidays or at least logged in to accept them from the gemstore during that time. LS season 1 rewards were thrown out of that pile, sure, but the miniature candy elemental and the mask of the night were part of the LS since Anet decided to mix holidays and living story content together at that time, which they quickly changed their minds on for season 2.

And let me guess .. You got your free hat right ?
Lots of people who would love to get it aswell.
No reason not to put it back.

sorudo.9054:

asked for this before the wardrobe was even released, i dunno why but i have yet to see the wizards had and rox’s quiver return…..the rest already did…..

rox’s quiver is probably the gemstore skin that have had most returns :P

Astral Projections.7320:

^ I agree

Remove the tickets and scraps and who would pay money or time to get a booster and a couple of low value, account bound items.

Well .. The black lion perma trading post and black lion perma merchant i’ve gotten wasn’t to bad either

A better way to deal with all of this would be to enable locking of items.
When you lock the item it can’t be sold/salvaged/destroyed until you unlock it.
Many games have this feature.

I always got “You’re an eyefull” to “You’re an Iphone”

Draknar.5748:

Wick.1280:

Anytime an MMO has a half off sale it’s bad. The die hard players are going “Say, I payed twice as much for this crap?” The people that are thinking of buying must ask themselves “Say, Why are they cutting the price in half, do they need the business?” Either way, it’s a slap in the face of the ones that already paid.

So, when Skyrim was on sale for $30.00 on Steam this summer, everyone should assume the game is garbage then right, and that everyone who paid full price prior should be up in arms about it?

Every MMO ever made has had reduced pricing to try and get another surge of sales years after release. Box sales aren’t GW2’s major source of income anyways, it’s in-game purchases. They just need to get people in the door.

$30.00 ??? Are you from Australia? I got it for 3.6 euro (without expansions)

And to OP .. It’s been 2 years. Ofc a sale happens, doesn’t mean the game is dying. Actually gw2 is doing better than ever. Sold more copies in China than it did on release.

Buying a game for 50% on steam sale just to see it go 90% next day. Now that’s a “slap in the face”

Anet take notes for halloween patch 2014, free material here from customers to make another mad king toy

What made me leave many guild in this game is the guilds who makes it a REQUIREMENT to participate in guild missions/events/meetings and so on.

It’s not a job, it’s a kitten game.

Sure I could have asked more about the guilds before I joined, I do that now. But I just don’t understand their mentality.

I used to run my own guild. It had no requirements other than beeing nice to eachother. It worked out really well.
I had to take a break from the game though, and when I came back 6 months later most people had found another guild.
But that was ofc on me for not staying and keeping the guild going.
A good guild depends on good leaders as mentioned above.

“3. Eve online is a SCI-FI MMO. The very fact that you are gonna try to bring in a non-popular fictional type universe and then compare it to the “fantasy” setting that is the western favorite is just LOL. Name one big Sci-fi MMO besides Eve pulling numbers………(silence)….(crickets)…yaaaaaaaa.”

Wildstar ?

Frosty in the dessert

Sola.7250:

Too me it’s not about the amount of content (too much, too little), it’s about the replay-ability of the content. Almost all of the GW2 content is the same the 1st time or the 100th time. I

I would rather see caves & mini dungeons on each map with random hidden locations, traps, bosses and loot. Make player’s explore and find loot vs just reward it at the end, would be better, adding more long term play than this living world stuff.

Random generated dungeons would be amazing, no doubt about that.

For 60€ I have gotten almost 4.000 hours of gameplay.
60€ only gets me like 10-14 hours in most games. When I’ve seen what there is to see I don’t go on forums and demand more content, “OR ELSE!”
If you are getting tired of the game then … TAKE A BREAK! There is absolutely no sub fee.
Guild Wars 2 doesn’t have to be the only game you play.

And the “forced jumping” was really basic stuff …
You shouldn’t worry about this for future episodes, only reason it was in this time was to continue the zephyrite theme, since they crash landed there.

Game is no where near dead.
We got lots of content today, more coming soon. And the majority of people seems to be enjoying the patch.

Again , another opinion implying the majority like this (‘seems to’), guess you haven’t read the negative comments or you just don’t bother counting them as legimate. Many more ‘seem to’ not care for many aspects of the update,specifcally the forced jumping.

There was a “season 2 is a disaster” thread up 5 min after it launched, I only counted the ones with reasonable arguments.
And no I don’t only count the forums voice. So many people only come here to b!tch, that’s just how it is. Go to INSERT MMO HERE forum and see for yourself.

You should post this on the black lion trading post section though.

Yeah I agree. I just finished episode 1, and really loved those boss fights.
The new zone, allthough small, have a really great atmosphere.

If you log on when it is released you will get it for free. If you are late to the party you have to pay 200 gems.

If you logged in today the content will be available for you to play forever.

Yes arena net, you should stop focusing on character development, everyone knows that this aspect of story telling is a waste of time.

There is obviously a reason to why she have been acting weird. Wait for the story to progress before you past judgement. It’s been out for not even 2 hours.

And maybe you should not have so high hopes for story in a mmo in the first place. It won’t be Game Of Thrones material, never will ..
Personally I don’t care for the story at all. It’s so mediocre. But that’s just something i’ve gotten used to when playing mmos :P

I got crap pc aswell, but framerate same as usual on new map pretty much.
Maybe it’s just cause of so many people on the map on new update. Try and limit character models.

At least it’s not just Arena Net, also politicians

Chase.8415:

PS4 and XBOX are x86, the same processing used in home computers. It would be easy to port it into the console, the only issues is the updating restrictions set by Sony and Microsoft, they would also have to pay extra money to them to grant the ability to use the service online without PS+ and Live.

ugdup.2371:

Guild Wars is a game that requires a mouse and a keyboard to be played properly.
It wouldn’t work on console.

Diablo is a hack and slash click to move based game, the entire game was designed to be played with mostly just your mouse… and they released that on the consoles and some people argue it is superior to the PC versions.

Guild Wars coming to console would be easy to implement, there’s only 10 skills. The difficult part would be redesigning the interface to work with controllers.

Diablo III was designed to work for consoles since the very beginning. They had it planned from the start.

Not sure. Dragons Jade is quite big

Borridian.1852:

I hope so. I just had to settle with the normal holographic dragon wings

They look much better, I can’t stand my shattered wings :S I wan’t teq wings back though, since I didn’t play that patch

Vol.7601:

The sandstorm graphics are really, really good. Reminds me of Realm of the Fae from rift, where the conditions around you suddenly change and influence your view:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blbUM3XOOX0

However, I do have a concern for those with lower graphics. They may be not be able to enjoy this zone, and may be forced to turn off their graphical settings to circumvent this. But that ruins the atmosphere since you can turn it off at will ;/

I have a kitten PC, I don’t care if i’m gonna run around in 5 fps. I’m gonna enjoy this beauty in full graphics

Steam sale is on, so lots of new games to pass time with untill season 2

The whole reason I did all jumping puzzles was to get the “honored in applied jumping” (sorry if I remember the name wrong), only to figure out that it was a title from SAB :S
Oh well, at least it gave a kitten load of achievments.
