I would like this too.I like fishing in games.
Useless feature
Yeah i must say even though in 90% time i defend this game and developers…..this patch SUX.It was waste of time and no1 cares for any of this features.I hope Season 2 LS starts soon cause that 1 ep will be best update that this game had for past month.
Why do you care does China getting it or not? You don’t play on China no?
Its really weird.This was supposed to be big day for GW2 but…I can just hope that they are late a little cause of patch
And why not?Why is it problem to have some feature in game?Dont like it…dont use it.
I like how OP (as well as some other people on forum) talk in everyone’s name…You completely ignoring the fact that some players LIKE Living Story…Just cause u dont like it,as well as some other (already famous) forum ragers and trollers dont…doesn’t mean that other people do not want it.I love Living Story and i dont want it gone just cause some of you are selfish.This game is not developed just for minority of you that complain all the time.Arena Net knows how many active players they have and that proves them that what they doing,…..they are doing it right.You want expansion?Ok ask for them ( im not selfish).You want mounts,SAB,new legendaries and all other things that i dont care about?Ok as for them…..but dont be selfish and trying to take away content that other players already have and like to play.God this community….
I agree with OP 100%.He said everything im thinking every time i come to forums.
This just seems more and more pain to read all of this on forums.It just seems that i will need to quit this game cause game lacks of proper PVP,fun PVP.I always played open world PVP games but seems like i made mistake by buying GW2.Only game with no any sort of Open World PVP,only game where u cant properly fight 1vs1,fight with your friend,with your PVE build….yeah it was mistake.This game wont keep me for long here.

This tread will persist until duels are in game.
I was just wondering why is this feature still not implemented after 2 years? Cmon people, its essential thing!
- It was never intended to BE a feature, so it’s not GOING to be implemented….EVER.
- It is NOT “essential thing” as the game is in no way suffering because it’s not there (the definition of “essential”).
- see PvP or WvW for a currently existing solution to “dueling”.
- …even tho 1v1 dueling is not currently nor ever will something the game is balanced for….and thus is pointless.
It WAS intended to BE a feature.Colin said so himself on interview.
+1 for dueling as always. wishful thinking though, I highly doubt they’ll implement it.
Again for the people who don’t want to duel, put in an option to ignore requests, simples. Doesn’t mean it should be cut out of the game completely just because some people would rather not duel their friends. That’s just silly.
Dueling is PvP and A.Net said their system design for the PvE side WAS NOT DESIGNED for any type of PvP.
That is why there are arenas in the sPvP area.
That isnt going to stop people from asking for it, arena net should just implement dueling in so people stop asking for it. Just because some people are scared that someone will laugh at their poor dueling performance it doesnt mean people don’t want it lol.
Nope Anet shouldn’t add things just because people ask for it. They should only add if it if it fits their vision for the game. My guess is that it doesn’t.
Then i guess their vision of the game doesnt include a large PVP scene l0l
It includes, like Guild Wars 1, a scene where PvP and PvE are separate entities that don’t really interact with each other. There was very little interaction between PvP and PvE in Guild Wars 1 and that was often considered a PvP-centric game.
That doesnt change the fact that dueling helps improve a pvp community, if you can go to an area where people randomly duel and you watch it’s interesting. They should have added a system where there is an area in the mists where you can duel instead of making it all instanced. Guild wars 2 is no way a PvP-centric game tho? Also guild wars 1 was no where near as pvp centric as WoW and look at how big WoW’s pvp scene is still now compared to gw1s.
So let them have arenas for dueling away from the open world. I never had a problem with that.
Like i said an area where people are dueling each other creates competitiveness, People will not randomly stumble upon people dueling and watch if its in a closed off area. Im just saying Guild wars 2 will never be competitive in the PvP scene if they arent creating an atmosphere where people can enjoy being competitive. If 2 people duel in a forrest who else knows besides them? no one, but if they duel outside a city everyone who goes past can watch the entertainment. Like i said just look at how popular WoW’s PvP is, it wouldn’t be that popular if they didn’t give players opportunities to be competitive ( dueling ).
So people can just start dueling in the middle of an event they’re not participating in and scale it up, making it harder for a person to do because they want to duel there? I don’t think that’s a good idea.
Two people wont effect a group event so significantly that it is the difference between win or loss. If two extra people not participating causes an event to fail, it was failed already. There are AFKers at every event already.
You gotta do better than that, Vayne
Well said man,well said…
maybe we grew up
That is accurate.I think we are just growing up and are less interested in games.When i was a kid i played lots of games (not just MMO’s).I dont play much any kind of game now.I still like to play them but its not same feeling as before.Eventually we will get to some age where we wont feel like playing games at all and we will quit.Its natural thing to happen.
Why u need Karma? Thats kinda useless.
I must agree with OP.It just seems like game develops too slow.I like LS and i prefer it lot more then expansion but feature patches need to make end game better.First feature patch fixed account stuff.Second patch will fix PvP it seems but still there is nothing that add on end game.Most wanted features are still not even close to release ( duels,guild wars,guild halls etc..).I love Gw2 but last month or 2 i play it just like Skyrim….when LS is released i play it for few hours and wait 2 weeks after,thats how i play Skyrim when i add new player made mode and burn its content fast.
Anet needs to add those features that people want,need to focus on that as well as to add end game content like new dungeons,new things to do in Tyria,to give us reason to replay back all those events that we done wile leveling.Rewords need to change as well cause most players already are happy enough with skins they have and they dont need new skins at all.
I like it like this far more then zerging.Anet doing great job so far with new LS.
Soon this tread will merge with biggest tread on GW2 forums (cantha tread)
Guild Wars and guild halls is MUST HAVE and this PVP mode need to be anti-zerg.Make more strategy based then just clicking 1 button.
PVP is not much active here because its SUX.All zerging.You are wrong if u think that players dont care for PVP.WE want better PVP and we wait for it.I want proper 1vs1 – 1vs2 PVPand guild wars.
ITs my guild “Descendents of GWEN”
Ahhhh not this again…..tell me OP.From all those great people that you could see on old servers how many of them are your friends actually?Why does it matter to stare at same people that afk in 1 same place every day?Is that gameplay?
Night time should be darker.
Imagine if you had to equip a torch. That would be cool.
Agreed
Yeah dark in GW2 sux.Anet should really look up at Sony Online and see how does “Night time” look on EQ Next.In gw2 u can barely notice difference between day and night.Not just visual…problem is with sounds too.There is no night sounds at all,nothing.
I do LS and i love it.I like LS concept lot more then expansions cause expansions feels too static.But i agree on lack of end game content and features in this game.I just want that for new races,classes,dungeons and others you dont really need expansions.They can put all of those under feature patch wile pushing story through Living Story.That would be really perfect in my opinion.Too bad that we dont see much those features patches :/
What i wanted to suggest for Anet is to add daily quests that we get from our npc guild members.Add new skins or something that we can obtain from (priory,vigil and order of shadows) and make it obtainable for reputation we have with our guild.Make quests send us to do events on some random map.That way we wold not have anything hard to do but we would explore more this world and make players more active (instead staying AFK half of the day).Each day send us on some different or just random map to do events that we already done before.All that work that Anet done so we can enjoy leveling doesn’t need to end when we get lvl 80.
Also i would like to suggest another thing that would help making more active Tyria and would make this game less boring.Add reputation that we have for each map in game.Make rewords that we can get by completing map events.Add use of getting levels again.
Im in guild called “Gwen”
We knew all this was going to happen with megaservers. Just look at the megaserver “beta test” that was EoTM: no community there has made it into a spectacular failure of 24/7 karma train.
No community in EoTM?This troll post made my day.Haters gonna hate…
Megaservers fixed empty dead world that GW2 had.This is an MMO – massive online game and not some RP game where people want empty dead server so they can enjoy the silence and listen the birds wile RPing…There are other sort of games for that.
I think they should put GW1 as Free to Play game now.Gw is almost dead game now that no1 is buying.They are not releasing any content for it so no wander.Seems like they are just waiting that 1 of best games ever just simple die…I know that game dont cost much but people just wont bother to buy game that is old and fading away like that.Free to play would bring more players to them,even if there are bots,gold sellers and everything…its still better then no people at all.
This game focuses too much on story that ends in like 2h playing every ep.Story is great so far (LS season2) but game needs more hardcore elements to make proper end game.I know some games that like flowing with end game that much that you cant’ possible finish everything you can in character progression for playing entire day….This game needs to add some hardcore core elements to keep this game alive and even beet most of new MMO’s.
First of all dungeons in GW2 sux.They are easy and all of them are based on same concept….
This game have lots of potential for open world but does not use it.For example they can do what they done with sPvP with reword system.It would be great if they would add daily missions that for each day sends you to some random zone where you need to do 4-5 events to finish it.This way they would give reason for players to do existing events over and over again and not just til they get 80.Also people would not need to just sit around afk entire day.
They could add daily missions to our story guilds (order of whispers,priory,vigil) that we would do each day to craft new skins or something.
They could add duels to expend PVP in this game as well as Guild vs Guild
Guild housing could expend end game as well if they add farming and daily questing to increase reputation of guild and with that bring more costimisation options.
They could add secondary jobs like fishing etc…which would give players more things to do in game.
Open new map that will be available for PVP on a PVE world map,so that people dont go zerg around all the time in WvW,make some new map that will look like queensdale for example PVP/PVE area to eliminate zerging and bring real PVP in to the game.
Nothing of this is too hard to make….it would take much less effort then what any expansion could bring but would solve most of the problems this game have.

If they dont do anything,with lack of living story this game will enter stale period again and thats not good for a game.I hope they release at least some event that we can play.Perhaps they are taking a break to focus more on next feature patch that they said will come till end of this year.
I would like this game to get Gw1 weapons stile.Gw2 weapons are really too much fantasy.Its nice to have big glowing weapons but its even better if we have all variation of weapons.For now its just BIG FANTASY.
Dungeons in GW2 are really boring and most of them looks vary similar.This game needs more dungeons like on WOW,TERA etc…meaning – dark castles etc.
Its huge issue that many people in this game abusing.Anet need to do something about this,untill then do dungeons ONLY with guild members and friends.That way you wont have any issues.
You said everything when you said that GW1 have better combat rofl…Anyway the reason they wont make it is cause majority of people likes and plays more GW2 (even those that say that they dont – Gw1 is still available and they can play it anytime but still they are here?).Besides combat and multiplayer nonsense everything else you said is truth.
I still dont believe how some people thinks that megaserver is “server merge”.Megaserver was made to for entirely other reasons and those reasons are something i been writing for them to do for long time.What of use if this game have currently 1 billion players on 1 server if zones are dead?This game is instanced based.Everything you do,you do it from some afk place (towns the most ) which leaves zones dead and like that this game seems less appealing for starters cause (even with many players) game still seems dead. Megaserver was build up so that they can merge people on server to play together,was build up so that small servers can do BIG events without need to guest on other servers.You cant just make new server cause you are destroying WvW balance.To end this nonsense…..ESO started with Megaserver so how you explain that?by your logic ESO was doing server merge even before game got released yet…by your logic ESO was losing players even before they got them in game !!.You people are soo easy to give judgment and bash game here but what is use of that?August is soon as well as anniversary of GW2 and ANet will release stats for sure.I already see people call them liars,people doing some mat on they own that makes no sense at all just downgrade this game as they been doing it in a past.What is use of that?
(edited by saalle.4623)
I hate dead zones so +1 for MEGASERVER !!!
Stopped reading at this point "mini pet fighting arena _
I just want guild housing (place that guild can meet up and call its own).Not interested in player housing since its useless feature that mare point is to NOT play a game or AFK in it.It has nothing to do with gameplay…just wasting of time and resources.Same opinion i have for legendary weapons but if players wont it…i wont have problems with it.
I would place megaserver as good thing.Everyone says how megaserver come cause of drop in population….i dont think that is the case cause if im in Anet i would make megaserver even if there are 10 million active players.No matter how much people play the game,megaservers are made for starters so that they can play together and lvl together.Besides,i can now finally play a game with my friends from other servers.
Living story is another good thing in my opinion.
Bad thing – community on forum and lack of end game content

sPVP rewords are now better then before.Now sPVP has daily rewords where you unlock skins (ascalon,arah etc…),there are some new skins too.WvW is still the same – massive zerg but i dont mind that cause i always roam around with my thief.There are lots of roaming players so you dont need to zerg if you dont want to.There is also new WvW map called “edge of the mists” which is really awesome and majority of people loves it enough that map is always in Overflow.Its huge map with lots of npcs,new mechanics and lots of side paths.As Axelwarrior also said,we have PVP seasons for WvW now that rewords us with great skins.Last season gived us this

Ehh man that tread is taboo here.Welcome to Gw2 but soon enough you will see the true face of this community.
Where are now those people that says how GW2 losing players ROFL.
My guild is doing Teq every day and every day they kill him.
I like Adry suggestion.We have sandstorm in dry top though.
Crystal Desert + Cantha
I said many times that GW2 have second biggest MMORPG community on the world but some people here were making fun of me with that.This is post that proved my point.No matter how many players play our version…just China alone make this game biggest community after WOW.
I would like new dungeon too even though im not much of that type of player who likes to do instances.I would like it so that expends PVE content and if dungeon is done well i would do it.I dont like fractials and never done any of them (was just watching brother playing it),so i dont want new dungeon to be part of fractials.I would like new dungeon to look as some dark castle cause those sort of instances this game missing.
I would like guild halls
