Guild Wars 2

Evan Lesh.3295:

This will be changed for an upcoming update so that disconnecting will not cause a desertion for party members if they win. The player who abandoned the match will still get a desertion.

Why punish someone that returned to the match? Also, do all team members get punished if the match is lost simply because of one persons disconnect?

I’m having the same issue. I submitted a bug report in game and I hope this gets resolved soon.

So I’m still working on my personal story but this has me wondering….what will happen once I finish it? Will I basically be stuck picking up at a point that makes no sense like the OP here? If that’s the case i’ll just skip the story entirely once I hit the cap.
P.S. My account is only two months old, max, so I wouldn’t have this exact problem.

The Personal Story shouldn’t show up anymore in the upper right once you complete it, and since you don’t have any Living World episodes unlocked I believe the content guide will point you to other things like events, etc. You can change these settings by hitting F11 and looking at the Content Guide settings under User Interface.

This is exactly why LS1 should be unlock-able and purchasable like LS2.

Guild Wars Beyond was ArenaNets way of tricking people into believing that content would continue to be created for GW1 so more people would purchase GW2.

This morning, I visited all 30 locations a fifth time but on a second character.

Still no luck! 29/30 Lost Coins.

I’m going to pitch in and mention that I have visited all 30 locations 4 times each. The achievement is reading 29/30.

I submitted a bug report.

This is something that has been happening to GW2 for about 3 weeks, at least that’s when I first noticed the issue(s).

I am not sure if ArenaNet has acknowledged the problem but I’m guessing it’s related to them “preparing” for the mega-server setup.

Jocksy.3415:

How are WvWers expected to recruit amongst their PvE population if we have no way to contact our server mate in PvE? (eg, a commander stating he’ll take lead on x map at x time, or server indicating they will give a formation at some time).
Some announcements are not meant for the world to know, only the server…

(and I know there are already risks of other than server mate to see the announcement, but megaserver will make it almost impossible to know if people from my server are there)

It’s possible there will be a home world chat channel.

I could go on and on about how ArenaNet abandoned Guild Wars 1 and then spit on their player base.

They took most (if not all) of the features that people LOVED about the first game and stripped them out of the design plans for Guild Wars 2. ArenaNet was determined to make Guild Wars 2 nothing, NOTHING at all like the first game and they were successful.

My conclusion is that AreanNet does not like Guild Wars 1.

Are there any updates on this Anet?

Hello, I’m here to crush your dreams.

There will be no mounts coming with the Flame and Frost story arc.

Also, to address further speculation we’ve seen about the concept art for Flame and Frost (and what it may portend): there will be no Cantha and no dragons coming with the Flame and Frost story arc, either.

Thank you.

Nice, so mounts ARE coming as mentioned before launch. =D

I just logged into the game and mine reads 174 / 175.

Halloween skins appear to have a 4 hour timer:
