Toxic?

SW toxicity is simple. Dead ppl never port and upscale events for rest -> Events fail. Fix sould be simple.

please. dead people are inactive people and therefore the event get scaled down accordingly to the amount of active people playing.

I turn of mapchat more and more simply because of all the swearing and trolling going on, or no communication at all. and really, after the two last 10 dollar sales, it did get waaaaaaay more then it was before.

and do not tell me to put a filter on, because the filter is not there to give others excuses to swear regardless of this filter. one can show a little respect to the younger people and people that do not need/want to read the swearing in chat or *.

bind jump key to a key that actually works for you.

Please read the actual post before replying.

i did and that is why the suggestion, might be easier to bind jump to a key right next to the forward key, duh.

you better think before snaring out to people like that.

[QUOTE]Event scaling[edit]

Events scale both up and down according to the number of players who are currently participating. 3 Events can scale in a number of ways:

Enemy stats can be increased
Enemies can gain new abilities
New enemy types may appear, including veterans, elites, or even champion versions
Enemy count can be increased
Objective requirements may increase
Most events scale for up to 10 players.4 Group events and large scale events such as the finale for meta events will scale much higher. For example, The Shatterer scales up to 100 players.5 Events can detect that players have not performed any actions relating to the event within a period of time and will scale down the event accordingly.[/QUOTE]

instead of throwing wild accusations about scaling, read first then discuss.

Unscrupulous guilds...?

mcwurth.2081

if a guild “requires” me to represent either 100% or anything other, I do not even join them. I represent when i see fit. most people do not understand that we can join 5 guilds and that some people do. one of my characters (out of never represents a guild i am in and they know this (I communicate anyway but through whisper instead). they are aware of it and they do not mind.

communication is key. I got my own guild as well, and i really can not care less about people representing. if people do not represent, they just do not get vault access or any other boon or extra from the guild it self. But I wont kick them.

No Fractal Daily?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: mcwurth.2081

mcwurth.2081

Only if some other necessary changes are made. Like WvW daily Stonemist Capturer, daily Grub Slayer, Eternal Battlegrounds Events.
Should probably remove those too-easy PvP wins, since the arenas are rigged, and revert back to only one class win instead of class-or-class. Too easy. Actually, PvP should be removed entirely, because it’s too easy to get everything in just a few minutes.

No it should not, Anet can not cater only to pve people with exactly what only a voicey majority wants. I actually like the pvp dailies. They are not a must, yet super easy to do if i haven’t got the time for the day to wait for some boss to spawn because it is/was on the list. now with the daily pve do this or this events in this and this land, now they can remove that for me. takes way to much time. some areas events are so far apart, or take so long to do it takes away from the time i want to do other things when i log on. in those cases i go into pvp areas, do the daily there and not even 10 minutes later (really a max that) I am 100% dont with my 3 dailies.

I wish i could find a good group to help me learn and understand fractals instead. I tried several when fractals was new, mostly in pugs, where half the group leaves when one person dies once.
So yes 3 fractal dailies would be awesome and should be added atleast every other day!

Add me if you’re on the NA side, I do fractals errday and willing to teach.

if you want to pvp please go into pvp areas. meetup against another guild or wait till guildvguild is introduced again into the game. pve is pve, and the majority, i am fairly sure, will want to keep it that way.
I do know that some players play both parts of the game, but the general impression is that pve players play pve content only, and the majority of pvp players play pvp only. Therefore it would be a bad idea to bring this into pve areas. you can always try to find some people with a custom arena? ( i think this is what it is for??)

valve takes per sale of a game like what 18-20% and ingame sales get taxed as well ( in a lot of cases) so Anet would loose a lot of money or have to raise all prices we currently have. So plaese no.

mcwurth.2081

please please make them have their own little zone with a preview of the real world. otherwise the trolling and toxic behaviour will even get worse then it currently has become already after the sales.

If they can’t access map chat, trolling won’t be so much of a problem.

I do think it’s important that they get to see an accurate representation of what the (paying) community is like though- it’s a vital factor for many when choosing to play/purchase a game. Putting all free trial accounts in a separate instance to regular players doesn’t offer this insight.

then no map chat would take away a load of the accurate representation as well, they cant ask for help or ask other players how to use x in combination with z.

really though, no whispers, no trading, intolerant spam filters, swearing will be censored no matter the settings of any paying costumers settings. because the gold selling and trolling must kept at bay. Not to say that all trial players will be trolls, but the amount of trolls are way to high for “my” taste already as of last two 10 bucks per game account sale, I turned of map chat because of it, I do not need that stuff, so yeah I am sure i am missing out on interesting conversations lately. then again, Anet hardly have trials, and when they do it is like a 48 hour weekend or something or a coupon with purchased games (hard copy) to let a friend play full on for a few days (15 hours i think it was or was it 15 days? in gw1). So keep the hopes up for trials, lol.

Allow Trolling in game and forum

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: mcwurth.2081

mcwurth.2081

There’s a few small ways to ‘troll’ people in-game that aren’t too offensive.

There’s been a couple jokers dropping the aviator’s memory box on anything lots of people need to use – The bank or TP, bandit chests in SW etc. Probably a good laugh for them, caused a bit of raging though. Mesmers sometimes do something similar with the portal.

Of course, even those minor inconveniences can drive some players up a wall.

Yeah, I know. I’ve seen people drop items such as merchants on top of meta boss chests as well as on top of other services such as a trading post or bank. The ones on top of a trading post/bank are ignorable as there are other places to go and those services aren’t limited in time. Dropping one on top of a boss chest is another thing and one of the reasons why trolling is considered essentially malicious in nature.

just click on the edge of the chest press f =win? or do they drop several on a row so it is unclickable?

i winder why people think that anet is gonna keep the stuff they do always exactly the same as day one.
They are aware that AP is harder to get then anything else because of the limit to earn them. You have to come back into the game for something. (albeit a very bad reason to just want this skin)

Do older people play this game?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: mcwurth.2081

mcwurth.2081

The oldest people I know playing are over 70. The youngest I’ve met was 7. (Something to keep in mind the next time you see a complaint about ANet suspending people for poor word choices.)

I’ll keep that in mind with a game rated for Teens…

I pvp every day to preserve my youth!

OMG the secret to living forever! Feeding on your enemies tears!

the rated 12+ is advice, not a rule saying anyone under 12 is not allowed to play this game. it is about the game it self and not the players. therefore it is adviced to stay on the “levels” of the game with your language choices, because yes my son is 5 and he plays and he can read words like kitten and kitten as well (obviously not only those words).
And yeah yeah filter this filter that, you know the filter isnt there to give others excuse to swear, it is nt even allowed, and is a bannable offense. (i seen it hapen to a friend who couldnt keep his piehole shut).

Anyway on topic, just turned 35.

mcwurth.2081

please no, if you want to marry other virtual characters it might be time to take a break from the game or go play a total different game. (e.g. second life or something)

Hundreds of players play with their IRL partners and would like this functionality. If you can’t handle others’ relationships, maybe don’t be in a social game.

I do not see what “not being able to handle others relationships” have to do with me not liking weddins in this game. RP it use a namechange scroll keep it for yourself and your guildies. no need to add a fairly useless “feature” into this game.
If it is about real life partners, they can make characters together, so not even needed to buy namechange contracts.

This week's special surprise

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: mcwurth.2081

mcwurth.2081

I actually asked them in their Facebook if this ended up being the “surprise” they had for this week and all i got was a snarky comment from Rubi Bayer saying that they’ll only show specs when they’re ready.

That was actually me. I sign my posts with RB. Rubi signs her posts with RB2.

What you asked was whether the Lion’s Arch info was the reason there was no specs reveal. To pit these two pieces of information against each other misunderstands the game development process and the fact that we have different teams working on different features. The folks working on Lion’s Arch are not the same people we have working on profession specializations. As I said on Facebook: we release information when we’re ready to do so. If we haven’t revealed something, it’s because we’re not ready yet.

Well said. Many people just do not understand how several teams can form one company…

even so, IF it was to change “soon”, do not forget that Anet developers and creators use DEV builds to create all the stuff we get to see as videos and art. this could mean that they maybe have a very old map of LA, or just the middle only or the whole map of tyria as one map without portals etc etc.

no matter how they change stuff, people will always find weak spots and use those to their advantage.

got to say though i like to do triple trouble when it is organized. unorganized it will fail anyway so it is no use. so even when organized it still uses the weakness of the bosses just in an organized way.

Human nature i guess. do something for years on end and it becomes a second nature, hence the button mashing and standing on "invincable places.

Posted by: mcwurth.2081

mcwurth.2081

the price is just so high to make sure hackers and such do not switch easy. also it is a thing they added ad a later point in the game: a) the later implementation was done so at start of game people could switch to make sure they found the right server/area to play on and find their guild and/or friends to play with. b) WvWvW: they do not want people to easy transfer over to “cheat” during WvWvW matches. E.G.: quick moving over to another server to give and/or get rewards from another server.

Meta's and exploits are killing this game

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: mcwurth.2081

mcwurth.2081

The real problem isnt the meta or exploits. The real problem is that it became a single player game. When the game came out everyone helped everyone, everyone was nice to each other, resurected one and another, if one saw someone struggle with, say, a skillpoint and passed by, there was always someone coming to help. but since the sales of the game (this is where i noticed it got worse and worse) nobody helps anyone anymore, lots of swearing in chat, ignoring other players, telling others they are “noobs and such” and just general toxic behaviour.

This on its turn has the effect on me that i am really thinking to stop help others as well and just do my thing on my own without bothering jumping in to help people that struggle a bit with their gameplay. Yet I still keep jumping in helping out with what ever, just because i like doing that. then i get answers like “i was doing fine” or " i didnt need your help".

It makes me sad to see this game gliding of into oblivion.
