Guild Wars 2

Hey!

I will try to provide my constructive criticism while taking into account great strides that you try to make with the game. I’m by no means a computer gaming programmer and don’t know much about making and maintaining a MMO, so you can picture it’s hard for me to imagine all the stuff that you have to go through and cope with.

I realised not long ago or even before the release of this game that with as much of hype that it had it would be hard to please all the people joining in and even harder to keep them. It was a no brainer and shouldn’t be unimaginable that some of them would get really pissed if something would not work as intended. This kind of stuff happens in every game nowadays since the scope of programming that needs to be done is way bigger then it was years ago.

Now that we have the circumstances behind our backs let’s get to the meaty stuff.
Since I’m a gamer and a GW2 player I too am a little pissed and saddened that you handled this event so poorly. I won’t try to point fingers since that is not so important and will only do more damage. I think you as a whole team should re-evaluate your principles, get your act together once again and strive to maintain that level of competence.

Your game is still one of the best if not the best in the genre. The new dungeon(s) is/are the best I’ve seen in any game to this date, very entertaining, challenging, diverse, worth of numerous repeats, albeit being a bit bugged (get disconnected and not being able to get inside with the team you played with and progressing from where you left).

I won’t comment on this event from tech perspective, all I’ll say is that for me it was a step-down from Mad King event. Saying that I as much as others that didn’t get the fair chance to complete the phase 1 would be delighted to get some compensation instead.

And for last thoughts I’ll try to be a little handy so you might benefit something from my comment. You would probably want to check this link, since it may include some valuable viewpoints (they are somehow similar to yours and you may find some that you could benefit from).

Thank you for your continued effort to please us as your game fans! I’m sure that many still remember that you are just humans that make mistakes here and there. You are doing a great job nonetheless!
