Seeing as the people working for the site refuses to actually tell people what happened, I would say we most likely don’t have the full story. Even when outright asked if they where forced to take it down they simply spun it around and refused to answer.

I am guessing you are talking about the gold conversion into gems. In that case, you are technically correct, but it’s still purchasing a story.
Either I have to play for months to accumulate enough gold for conversion or use real money. In both cases I have to buy a story. And that’s only because I wasn’t there in those two weeks.
I might be strange, but I would like to use my gold for that single most “important” piece of GW2. A legendary. And spending it for other things, especially those that should be free, is kinda unproductive.
It’s my principle that is clashing with ANet’s thirst for cash.

No, I am talking about the fact that you don’t even need to own the episodes in order to actually do them.

it would be pretty stupid to not attack jormag next. he already is the biggest threat after mordremoth

Is it though? It haven’t really made any major offensive since it awakened quite some time ago. Kralkatorrik seems to be just as much of a threat. And so do Primordus.

Your load screen experience is not the same as others. And minimizing can often make it longer or cause it to crash.

Of course not. But it is not like people are sitting with 5 minute long loading screens frequently (and if they do, they probably have bigger issues to deal with than a tiny piece of text).

Players are simply asking for a small QoL fix. Under your logic, why should they ask for anything? In fact, you do this a lot.

A small QoL fix that require time and resources. For something that will be gone in a couple of hours. Sounds like a waste in my eyes. Also don’t really see what this have to do with what I said though. He claimed that people have paid for the game. Something that I pointed out isn’t true for everyone anymore.

ArenaNet earns from their ad too. It’s basic marketing.

There is a rather large difference between getting revenue for views and selling something. Unless people actually buys the expansion ArenaNet earns a grand total of nothing at all from the ad.

1) This game is full of loading screens. Long loading screens.

2) It’s an advertisement on a buyed game.
The first, not the last.

3) All peoples OK with this should think about removing their AdBlock from their navigator.

1) Long? My longest is usually 30 seconds at most, and that is with a rather old and bad computer. Not to mention the fact that there is nothing stopping anyone form just minimizing the game and browse the internet while waiting (the client does flash when it is done loading).

2) Actually, it is fully possible to play the whole game for free. Should they really waste development time on making a difference between account types for something like this?

3) Why assume everyone is using AdBlock in the first place? There is of course also a rather large difference between the two. ArenaNet earn a grand total of nothing at all from this “ad” while pages usually earns quite a bit from their ads.

There is one main reason for why it won’t be available in the core maps: They were not built with gliding in mind and thus all of them would need to be worked on and rebuilt in order for it to work. Something that will take massive amount of time and resources.

I didn’t look too closely into the nobles’ deal so this may have been answered – but if they’re going on vacation why are they with a Pact battle fleet?

They weren’t with the Pact Fleet, they were flying a bit behind them cheering them on.

I believe it was Faren that stated that since they took out Zhaitan they should have no trouble with Mordremoth and thus it felt safe to follow the invasion fleet.

  • Lord Faren is wearing a speedo. This makes less sense than him being in the jungle. I know he’s a comic relief character but this just seemed bizarre to me. It makes about as much sense as Kiel or Marjory walking around in a bikini.

I think it is simply a matter of him going on vacation and thus have vacation clothes on. They didn’t expect to be shot down and having to fight out of the jungle after all.

lordkrall.7241

Look folks… normally I’m on your side on these types of discussions lol but to me Raiding SHOULD NOT be expansion only content. Anything that requires a group shouldn’t be. It’s exclusionary for a MYRIAD of reasons.

So they should just give it all away for free?

Raiding shouldn’t be “expansion content” only… Raiding should be an addition to the entirety of the game… As I said I HAVE HoT. I just don’t think it’s fair to the portion of the player base that aren’t getting HoT, not to have a raid or two eventually put into core…

So it is not fair for a portion of the player base (that can play EVERYTHING outside of HoT for free mind you) have to pay for access to raids? Really?

Why would anyone bother paying anything at all for the game, if everything is just available for free anyway?

Then that creates an even MORE fundamental issue… I know just in my guild alone several people who won’t be getting HoT. Will there ever be Raids getting added to Core?

Even if they added raids to the core world in the future, it is rather likely that they would still require HoT (or any of the future expansions if it comes with that rather than as an extension to HoT).

I get how the mastery system would be beneficial… Especially one based upon progressing within the raid. My issue is Gliding and mushroom mastery can only be earned via HoT. Therefore excluding all core players from being able to progress past certain points within raids.

But they won’t have access to the raids at all in the first place. So they will not be unable to progress past a certain point. They will be unable to enter the place to begin with.
