Let’s be descriptive, not prescriptive.
Let’s describe the pronounciation through phonetics.
Vowels differ in vocalization using our vocal cords, so it’s not possible to have a “correct” pronounciation of them.
I could see Hylek’s being playable, since their culture shows them as warriors, but i just can’t see Quaggan ever being a playable race. Kodan would be so amazing! They would even be more popular than Norn.
A-Net should’ve released Kodan to counter WoW’s pandas. I mean seriously.. who would want to play a panda over a polar bear!
World bosses here take no thought, no coordination, and hardly any effort, infact many you can simply tag a few things, than AFK till it dies and get credit….
Im not calling world events here raids, I’m simply disagreeing with your miss use of the term raid.
It’s still a raid, but it doesn’t take any tactics. It just takes numbers with everyone spamming their skills.
A raid with tactics would be like the Roman Army.
A zerg in GW2 would be like the barbarian hordes.
That’s basically GW2 summed up with large-scale content.
Go Ranger. They are really fun, especially with melee skills.
When, or if, willl there will be new races? The only ones i really enjoy are Human and Norn. I just couldn’t get into asura, sylvari, or charr. Ironically, my only 80 is a slyvari.
I would like to see Dwarves return from GW1 lore, but i think i read somewhere they are becoming extinct in lore, so i don’t know.
Which other races would everyone like to see?
Will this dungeon be temporary or will it be a permanent addition to the game?

I tried that website last night and got a group within 10-15 min.. i was doing AC story mode too. I seriously hate using 3rd party sites. Hopefully A-net is reasonable and gives us a LFG tool for dungeons.
@OP, You’re too passionate about a video game. Relax, and put your energy and passion to something more worthy.
GW2 dungeons are too chaotic for beginners. Everyone goes into Ascalon Catacombs and gets facerolled because of the lack of a “target of target” feature, a lack of AI cast bars, and the visual cues are worthless, because you will die too fast with a 1-shot hit. It’s very unforgiving for new players. There are no entry-level dungeons for them.
Dungeons for leveling up and new players should gradually scale up to more challenging dungeons at max level.
The zerg encounters need to stop. It totally ruins this game. All one has to do is spam their abilities to get credit. There is no strategy at all.
The dungeons are atrocious without classic roles too.
The players can’t do much when they have no tools to play with.
Custom content is the future of virtual worlds. This is why MMOs are flawed, because the content is consumed too quickly and people will get bored. Now, compare to minecraft, and you will see that Minecraft has a very active community because they are given customization to their virtual worlds. In GW2, we don’t have any customization, except gear, items, and clothing.
@OP, I disagree with everything you said.
Dungeon difficulty should be tuned though.
There should be entry-level dungeons, and dungeons that start BEFORE lvl 30. People don’t have the patience to wait 30 levels to try out their first dungeon experience, and i agree with them. Dungeons should start within the first 10-15 levels.
I found Logan to be worse than Traehearn. He was whiny and annoying. I hope he gets killed in Lore or has a major character overhaul.
I actually prefer it the way it is. It would be silly to have the ability to switch on the fly.
However, it would be amazing if I could save builds and swap between them at the trainers.
Oh i agree. It should have restrictions, especially in dungeons and spvp, or if in combat. It would just be nice to have like GW1 has it.
Any news on multiple (or dual) trait builds? I really miss this from GW1. The ability to switch between different builds was amazing and efficient. As it is now, we need to re-trait everytime we reset our builds.
I would rather have big updates instead of smaller ones spread out over months, otherwise i will lose interest in the story, which i already have.
To be honest, guesting makes populations irrelevant. Anyone can just server hop and change the balance of populations.
The build up for Flame and Frost has been way too slow. Sign posts and memento collecting is underwhelming. It should’ve started with the 26th update instead.
Also, dungeons, lack of trinity, lack of dungeon finder tool.. are disappointing PVE players. It’s the lack of any meaningful PVE too.
The halloween and christmas events were fun, then the Karka event was okay, but there was ZERO reason to ever go back there.
The cut scenes and close-up views both serve different purposes. The latter was way overused throughout the game. I would like to see both in the future.
Give players bonus wxp if they survive longer, instead of just giving the attacker a bonus for killing someone. This will give incentive to the survivor to not zerg.
I have guested there a couple times before, and went to DR, but i rarely saw anyone RP’ing. I only saw one person walking instead of running. Are most of you sure you aren’t exaggerating?
Just leave Tybalt, Tyria’s Hero, rest in peace already.
Past arguments, of the negative impact that a LFG tool has, are completely unfounded. It’s time for a serious tool in GW2, since the positives outweigh the negatives in many ways.
There should be 3 options for us to choose.
1. FPV with no combat. Scenic mode only.
2. FPV with combat. Skyrim style.
3. No FPV, 3PV only.
I would love to see a tool to browse through guilds that are recruiting or doing events. This would be very helpful for those coming back or new to the game, instead of asking in chat.
Agreed Vasham. Don’t worry, you’re not alone in this view. The vocal minority in this thread is just that, a vocal minority.
GW2’s dungeons were the most disappointing for me. It was just chaos without any organization. If they fix this, i’ll be back.
I disagree. I get too much loot as it is. I wish they would reduce the Junk loot, because it gets annoying to loot after awhile.
so don’t use them. they are optional.
I knew someone would bring this up. They are not optional if you’re in a party though. The other members of the group will want you to instant-travel, and if you don’t, they will probably kick you out. So it’s not really optional.
You make a good point about linking WPs in chat for help. I do it all the time. I just think there should be less, and maybe only in relevant spots, such as; Trading Posts, Repairs, Zone Exits, World Events, etc.
Anyone feel like waypoints make the world smaller? I don’t have a sense of exploration in GW2 while traveling, which is ironic, since exploration was supposed to be a huge selling point for GW2. It’s still there, except that the experience is lessened because of instant travel.
Flight paths, mounts, running, and actually, physically, moving inside the game world needs to be taken into consideration.
I’m not sure how this could be balanced either. The only solution i can think of is lowering the amount of waypoints for each zone, because right now, there is way too many.
10 rounds is overkill.
4 rounds would’ve been enough.
Ok. I’ll hold onto them just in case we’re still able to finish Phase 1 once Noll is fixed.
They should spread out the population across all racial cities. It would have been so much better.
Apparently i couldn’t finish Phase 1 event quests since Noll was bugged.
Now Phase 2 has ended, so should we delete phase 1 items?
I can’t wait for the November update. It’s going to be so amazing.
This has been an amazing event. I loved all the Acts, minigames, and achievements. Keep up the good work.
I’m ready for Act 2.
Act 1 was so easy with that guide linked by Zarael.
There are still a lot of achievements i need to do also. Hmm.
If Level scaling was gone would you feel motivated to visit lower level areas again?

Downscaling is one of the best features of GW2.
A-Net was originally going to get rid of levels, and i think they should have.
There’s a lot of things GW2 brings to the genre. The fact that A-Net challenged the standard is a good thing.
GW2 was a theory, and since it really wasn’t put into practice by a major company, we wouldn’t know what works, and what doesn’t work.
We need more bold approaches to the genre, and we need them to build on each other’s strengths and weaknesses. GW2 does this.
Darkhaven has come a long way now. It used to be disorganized, but now it’s starting to be more organized and tactical.
Whoa hold on. We have a dev responding to issues and concerns. So why do people complain all the time saying they don’t?
Keep up the good work A-Net, and don’t let the haters and trolls get to you.
I’ve recently stopped for several days now. I’m burned out on the game, but it’s not the game’s fault. I’ve been playing since BWE1 and Stress Tests.. I’ll be back for the Halloween Event though, since that looks amazing and fun.
This is great news. FOV adjustments and more camera tweaks will be very welcome.
It’s not a complete failure at all.
Swtor’s ilum pvp was though, because almost everyone stopped playing it. This hasn’t happened to WvW yet.
Relax. They are working on a better LFG tool, and hopefully it solves this problem. It might come out soon, with the oct. 22nd content update.
There’s so many! I’ll list a few though.
During BWE, me and this guy were going through a cave trying to get the skill point by the 2-headed Ettin. We both died, but the challenge was very memorable.
Another was when i was with 2 people trying to do a jumping puzzle, and two of us made it, but the other fell! We eventually all failed on the last part. >.>
O.o guess i learned something haha.
Thanks.
lol. It’s kind of easy to miss at first, but yes, i found out about this too.
People want private, instanced, raids that they can do with their guild. Not open-world raids where everyone can join.
It doesn’t bother me that there isn’t any private ones though. I’m just stating the facts.
