Please arena add some better options about the foliage in game.
Should be something to completely turn it off and from that like minimum, medium, maximum, ultra or something like that.
I run the client on old PC and sometimes the foiage just dissapears (after i had to alt+tab) and after that the game runs better. Some of my friends have it enabled and want even more of it… So make some better options for the foliage.
Not entirely sure what you’re on about the Jumping Puzzles; they’re soloable.
Let me get this straight. You’re dissatisfied with the structure of a multiplayer game not catering specifically to solo players?
Please, read that again and explain the logic in it.
Don’t expect a game that’s build around the multiplayer aspect to have everything available to solo players. If that was the case, everyone would just solo everything, since it’s quicker than teaming up.
What I tryed to explain is that the dificulty level is much grater when you are doing anything solo in this game and its not really needed. The game have scalable dificulty – why punishing players for playing solo… And btw – don’t get me wrong – I really had to help a player level 80 in full necro dungeon gear to finish the Cove… He/She died (not get downed – died!) like two times in a row just in front of me. How smart that is? Its really punishing – like 2 ghostly gunners are in group so once you hit one of them the other one jumps on you. You do recall the mesmer duelist phantasm? Well the gunner is much stronger. Just a single voley will lower your health dramaticaly, and they are mele fighters as well. After you lit the torches a veteran appears. If you have the bad luck (as the necromancer in question) to have the guners respawn on you – you are dead! No, don’t try to convince me that you are not… You could go like 0/0/30/30/10 with a guardian just to prove me wrong… but whats the point? You are not doing your clases just to farm puzzles are you?
In a few words plain and simple – the game have issues with solo players as its too hard for them, and its just like a breeze when you have a party. Even one person on your party makes all the difference.
My problem is that there is no such person… I have noone to play with. Dont get me started on that – im serious player. Playing like 5-8 hours a day…
So I guess I suck @ my favourite game… but that is no excuse to make these so hard. On the contrary. If you are so good to solo them why not make them available for the lamers like me for ex…
Lol I’m no lamer – I’m just so behind in gear and guess why – because I have trouble farming it. Don’t get me started on that one please.
I’m pretty sure that you can’t finish at least one of them (Swashbuckler’s Cove) by yourself – I had to help a person level 80 and in full necromancer dungeon gear to finish it. Try to finsh by yourself Professor Portmatt’s too. Let’s see how you do that with like level 55 char with blue/green gear only!

wow… D.@. M.n = kitten… nice1 arena!
I don’t know how properly to express my dissatisfaction with the game structure… Its complete fail so far. Before I get bashed for that opinion let me get my point clear…
I’m GW vet and have the game for a long time. I realy like GW2, but… there is some factors in it I don’t like so much.
It dead simple… if you are in a big guild the game will be a breeze (fail)… if you are solo you will be bashed repeadedly in anything you try to do (fail again)… anything – no jumping puzzles, no dungeons, no nothing… Is it really smart to bash the players for soloing the game? This kinda narrow the game to plain grind for me (and any solo players as well for that matter) as I’m not part from big guild. I’m sorry but I’m NOT a cassual player and I don’t want to join random guilds. My friends don’t like the game so I’m alone in this. I’m pretty sure that im not the only one.
Arena net, please consider the solo players exist! As the game have scaling dificluty its not so much to expect the kitten thing to scale down for a single player.
I don’t know, I feel like the whole point of monthlies is to get you to do a bit of everything, like I hate crafting but I need to do it for the monthly this month. If I don’t do it all I miss out is 10 laurels, which is no big deal in my book.
Bingo. Monthlies aren’t required. If you want the laurels because you feel ‘compelled’ or whatever to get ascended gear, then you need to be prepared to work outside of your comfort zone. Do what needs to be done to get the reward you’ve decided that you want.
They are designed to get you to do stuff. And as crazy as it sounds, that is meant to encourage you to do things you otherwise might not do. I tried keg brawl for the first time the other day. Why? It was a daily achievement, and I figured I’d break out of my comfort zone and try something new. It was amusing. I’m sure the same will be true of you doing dungeons if you decide to play to improve your skills and find better teams (or a good guild). A few bad experiences should not discourage you from an entire type of end game content.
I see your point – now please you try to see mine… I feel like punished for not beeing able to finish the dungeon section. I want to enjoy the game, not to be punished for playing it. And yes – as I previously stated – its clearly my fault for not beeing able to finish it, but I’m better at different aspects of the game. So if there is a way to swap these it will be more “win-win” situation I guess…
The point of this thread is not to argue if the swap is needed – I personaly think its unavodable to have swap in monthly too.
The point is what swaps should we propose to arena so the monthly get better experience.
Firstly please accept my apoligies if the topic have been brought before…
Initially I was planning to just ask a support for best forum for this question, but then I relized that it may be too narrow sighted so I’d like you to add what ever insights into it.
Flame on!
[spoiler]
So… to make that as plain as possible – I hate dungeons! Got it? I hate them… I find dying like 20-30 times in a row stupid as hell. Yes, probably its my fault – and, yes I don’t really care about it. I want to enjoy the expirience – not to be annoyed by it… For me its easier to just skip it and that is what I normaly do.

Flame off!!!
I’d like to ask if you find an alternative to dungeons in the monthly quests. These should be swapable, just as the daily quests.
I’d propose something like 5 bosses, 10 champions or 50 veterans, or even 250 kills. It’s kinda dull tough so If you have better ideas – go for it…
