Guild Wars 2

Sartharina.3542:

The current NPE is absolutely abysmal, because instead of inviting players into the game, it locks them out of it. I think others here have said it far better, but I’m low on time.

The loss of interesting Hearts and Events in Starter Zones drives away the higher-level players who’d normally welcome the new ones, and new players are turned off by the boredom. The tedium of leveling up (Everything you get by level 20 should be gained by level 5 at most. Seriously.) ALSO drives new and returning players away, because why play something that’s boring?

End game used to start at level 1. They should bring that back.

Omg let it go and get on with your life.

Shiyo.3578:

Yes but anet doesn’t want free money.

I do so send it to me.

No, not my style for this game. Or any other game probably.

I have three Norn guardians, two Sylvari guardians, and none for the rest. So go Norn or go home!

^ you could be on to something

See if you can try it out in pvp mode. You might be able to do it just in the lobby and not have to enter a match.

Sweet, and good luck with the rest of it.

Illconceived Was Na.9781:

Lack of room often turns out to be more of a hoarding problem rather than a lack of slots. 360 spots in the bank + storage toons + 2000 for mats… that’s a ton of room for all sorts of things.

I’d welcome (and buy) more tabs, too. However, I recognize that’s because I keep a lot of stuff for sentimental reasons and because “one day” I might have use for things (even though in 3 years, I’ve never had a need for e.g. a mobile TP pick up NPC). I’ve kept skins that take up a slot, that I’ve never used (and can’t imagine using), because, well, why waste a transmute charge, in case I might change my mind in the next 3 years?

But I digress. The main thing is: all of us tend to keep ‘junk’ around longer than we need to.

Yep, exactly right. I’m currently sitting on a train, part of a two hour trip home from work, and (almost) all I’ve been thinking is clearing my vault of stuff i’ll never use. Can’t wait to see how much space I make for myself.

On a more narky note: the OP could always just quit and uninstall. According to yesterday’s wonderful deleted thread that’s what the cool kids are doing now.

Its been like that in any and every MMO I’ve ever played. Not sure if we can ever get away from it since change is something that happens a lot this type of game.

Do them when there are events up. They’ll speed by but you still have to wait for the events. And not all of them have associated events.

Really there is no quick way.

Kam.4092:

I’m just wondering if anyone else feels the same?

I don’t. Just saying.

Zephyra.4709:

$100 USD worth of gems actually costs ME ~$141 AUD.

I tried looking in stores for gem cards but couldn’t find any, sadly.

Even EB? What state are you in? I can get them from one or more of the EB shops here on the NSW central coast, and a particular EB shop in Sydney occasionally scrounge them from other shops if they run out. Those guys told me that the supplier doesn’t see the value in them at the moment because of the exchange rate so resupply might be just slow.

So what if its a “zerg fest”? Run in a group if you want, or solo roam. This style of play, RvR or WvW or whatever it may called in other games, has always been like this.

It’s probably on page 5 by now. Titles won’t be the same but the thread contents are similar. For the record, I don’t think many people disagree with this.

I really need to ask: if you don’t like playing the game why do you need spirit shards?

Is it something to do with that stupid hat?

In your steam library. There’s a tab at the top that says Library.

The trilogy should be Prophecies, Nightfall, and Factions. The only expansion is Eye of the North.

Shadelang.3012:

I actually love TD >.< tunnels are extremely fun for me to travel through. And I would have an epicgasm if more cavern/tunnel style maps were developed in the future. Not knowing whats around the corner or even above or below you. And watching the ground for giant holes to fall and glide through is amazing.

Primordus is coming sometime so hopefully you (and I) will see something like this. Classic RPG stuff.

Look on page 2. We’ve had one week at least this year do far it seems. And don’t get started on the search function lol.

There may not be new comments added but there’s been quite a few new threads.

It’s nice to see he got some replies. His two hours wasn’t wasted after all.

I agree with Yargesh.

Nope, sorry. In such a short time period if nothing could hook you then then it probably can’t now either. You could always fire it up and have a go. Never be afraid of a game.

Tengu would probably have the tastiest flesh of any playable species so sure, why not.

(I’ve just started to pvp after three years so this thought came to me disturbingly easy. I should probably cut back already.)

Good luck finding champs to solo with any profession with Megaservers. Its more a shared age, cooperative age than ever.

To answer your question: any of them can if you know what you’re doing. Ranger, engineer and maybe necro maybe easiest in general but depends on your play preference.

Nope, not at all. Mainly because I don’t even remember the choices after all these years but they also formed who that character is and why he left the legions and lives in Lions Arch. Going to need to look at his choices to see what they were again.

Edit: And I just remembered that the character I’ve always thought is my oldest surviving one actually isn’t. Thank you GW2 Efficiency. I don’t regret choices for either of them.

RoseofGilead.8907:

Anet stores it all inside the Super Adventure Box.

Along with the secret blueprints for capes, and the DNA of various mounts!

Quarktastic.1027:

• Start at Hunter’s Pitfalls in the northeast corner of the map.
• Look for the wounded moa. Attacking it starts the Beak of Darkness event.
• Head south to King Jalis’ refuge, and do the jumping puzzle

By this point you should have two events complete, or 3 if the veteran looter spawns in the jumping puzzle. If the flower collection event spawns as well, you’ve just completed your daily events.

I think the lead up event to the flower collection is another one that might bug. So that makes three that I can think of out of all the events on the map.

Escorting the two quaggans to the quaggan village can also start at the end.

Ah yeah, that makes four.

Rife with bugged events? Besides the Quaggan emissary and Ramsy which other events generally bug out?

Action. I like dodging and blocking, and knocking back when I’m on my own, and taking on numerous enemies at once. Doesn’t matter what profession.

This is nice. I’ve been wondering if they’d ever thought about more flying creatures, or a few more at least. We have bats and harpies that sort of hover and wyverns that start on the ground (I’m not counting dragons) but maybe some creatures that start in trees or on cliff sides. Just as an example of something that’s gone through my head: some aerial pests like flying pocket raptors that come whizzing down at you from a place higher in the treetops.

Or something larger resting on a cliff ledge that could be neutral or aggressive depending on how hungry it is, that could roll off and swoop down when aggro or randomly roll off and soar up for a bit otherwise.

Edit: just to clarify (now that I’m up and been for a little run), is there a likelihood of the aerial z-axis being taken advantage of more?

Aww. I’ve been a fan of Jeff Grubb for a long time. Good luck in your new work Jeff!

What event and what condition? I’m not sure I’ve seen this one.

Nope. You lied and someone helped you out in good faith. It was deceitful. Listen to your conscience and don’t do it again. Or try hard anyway.

There’s a good chance you would have had a one-time refund anyway.

I think your conscience is telling you something. Don’t lie; it’s a bad habit.

I don’t like the Cantha look. I feel that its some of the worst art Anet have done. That’s the beauty of art! I did like Factions though; the play through their was fine.

There’s a whole big thread on Cantha you might want to read through. It was on the front page yesterday so it can’t be too far back. Look for the red tags.

edit: oh, its ages back. Page 11

Numerous ways to arrange our character pics on the selection screen would be nice. Filters and so forth, and where we can arrange them. Not everyone is in my boat (62 characters) but I’d imagine many people would appreciate it.

Hmmm click bait rubbish. What are you expecting from this?

seabhac.5346:

where is all the cheese that goes with all this whine??

seriously, in all fairness, please let ANET fix their game so that all can play.

Its in my sig.

How many people is “so many”? And how does Anet financials effect your gaming experience in GW2? Just asking out of curiosity. There could be an interesting discussion here.

Because financials show where priority lies. A cash shop company just has to look pretty, it doesnt neccesarily have to have depth. While a company that needs successful expansions at least has to put more effort into getting people buy it.

So you think Anet’s financial model leads the game to have little depth? I think its probably deep enough for many of the people who play it and which then would probably be the target audience. There are all sort of things to do in the game, and while probably everyone (might be safe to say that) has something to grizzle about I’d imagine many can work around their pet peeves or just work through them. Not everyone can do this of course, which leads to forum threads.

How about batches of four and eight?

Four is as unlucky as eight is lucky, so two batches of eight would be ok (but not four four-packs).

Fair enough. Got to go with the theme.

How about batches of four and eight?

I guess that’s easier than any sort of adjustments you could make. Possibly less clicking as well.

Seems sensible. I watched a fair few arguments unfold around here where it seemed obvious that the participants were arguing their case based on different game modes. It would save some aggravation (but reduce forum lurker fun).

Svanir Shaman was fine before Megaservers and timers. The best work around to get a slightly more challenging experience with it is to zone into Wayfarer right on the time. It doesn’t need a complexity upgrade since its on a starter map.

Kill it!

Mo Mo.1947:

After all we don’t go around arguing about aether vs ether vs æther.

5…4…3…2…1…

I’ve been saying wiv-ern ever since the 80s and I’ve never heard it said any other way until just a few months ago. Does it matter how a mythological beast name is pronounced?
