The Guild Wars 2 Thread

there seem to be two at the moment. There's the Codex Decline Squad on Yak's bend if you're in the kwa. You can prolly contact sovard for that. The Kodex Kool Krew are on Seafarer's rest in EU. I can toss you an invite. Or Berekän can. Or suicidebunny.

 

So is this official? You nigs need to get more organized. Seems like a piss poor effort. Where's the leadership? Do you think you're going to WIN this way?

If I ever play this I don't want to be on the same guild as HHR

 

is it just me or does double clicking on an enemy only work when it feels like it

edit: i guess right click does it

 

Yeah, just r-click, or click once to select and choose the skill you want to use, that can be better if you are opening with a debuff/disable rather than primary attack.

 

man the cutscenes are REALLY ruining the immersion on this shit. Why the fuck is destruan the badass necro with no feelings talking with these fags like hes a bro. Pissing me off

 

Don't teach a newbie bad manners right away man!

 

these cut scenes.. im going to cry

 

What cutscenes?

 

i think he means the cinematic conversations. and yeah, they do suck.

 

Yes they suck HORRIBLY and i do not understand how they think they were a good idea. Obviously they arent important but fuck me do they piss me off

 

they prolly thought that people skipping all the carefully written text in gw1 was bad, and the carefully written text needed to be more in your face, also more majestic... and cinematic... and fully voiced...

 

Apparently they also thought level scaling was a good idea

 

I am enjoying it, although I am only level 20 Human Guardian. There were couple of times when I couldn't find new events or was always late to the party, left running around like a headless chicken so I wasted some time. Nevertheless I like this event / quest system, which feels more as a group activity rather than solo, especially right now when low level areas are populated.

I've selected armorsmithing as my first craftsmanship, but I am extremely short on Jutes and crude salvaging didn't provide satisfactory results so I'll try to switch to journeyman's kit. According to gw2 wiki these jutes can be found on bandits so I'll guess I'll have to dedicate some time to farm them up so I can finally reach 75 skill level.

What does the guild provide for the player? What are the benefits in terms of mechanics of joining the guild? I'll message you in game Ulminati in the evening when I get home.

 

not that different from gw1's low level cap, though i would have preferred it and the good old hunting for skills over the new system, though hunting for skillpoints instead isn't that bad. at least some are actually difficult to get.

First 80 in this game. Took around 32 hours.

Anyone remembers how long it took for first person to reach max level in previous game of the month, Diablo 3?

edit: Found answer myself, took 43 hours to max in Diablo 3.

 

Whats bad are the Charr story scenes. Everything is like something out of a horrible 80's action movie. Its all "I'm here to kick ass and chew bubble gum" lines with army/tribe macho bullshit thrown in. If I recall an exact line - "I want a barrel of whiskey and you dead... And I'm gonna that second one now!" said with horrible monotonous stoic voice acting. Yeah... People get paid for this...

Also just me or does the game just throw so much loot at you that its just ridiculous? I mean I'll be killing simple basic enemies my level and its just a none stop items that I would want to loot if my bags weren't constantly full... Is this a way to con me into buy more bag/bank/storage space?

 

Do you know how long it took to reach max level in Guild Wars 1? Not long.

Do you know how much it meant to reach max level in Guild Wars 1? Fuck-all.

 

Most of the crowd - since it got so much hype it attracted wow-players and other streamlined target audience - in GW2 wont pvp much, except sticking to zergs, hi.
Once they run out of PvE content and they will run out soon, they will move. Question what would be game of the month for crowds, D3-GW2-next (call-of-duty?)?

 

Why do you care, bro? People in this thread surely don't.

 

Because caring is good for your soul, bro.
Also this is nice setup for drama "I thought it was AWESUM game" a month later. Look at D3 topics. As it was not clear it was totally crap from the start.

 

xaxaxaxaxa )))))))

 

is whisper complaining about lack of grind or am i missing something. Ive never played gw1

 

You missed decent game. Despite it having same name tag, its as different from sequal as D3 from D2, for example.
About complaining and grinding, not sure how you got this conclusion. Its mostly about anticipating fun to had when another game of the month go flop. If you think a bit, if you want to label me as complaining, it would not games, but streamlined dumbed-down audience. To which they cater since they need huge sales to profit.
Industry will bake out games like this each month at least, there is no point to complain about particular game. It is one of many - and it just caters to existing TA.

 

For someone so butthurt about the game you sure seem to be obsessed, Whisper.

The worst part is that you focus on things that are utterly irrelevant. The stories suck? No shit, it's a MMO. If anyone was expecting any different, they're either naive or clueless. Second, who gives a shit if WoW drones move on? That's actually good for the community. Not to mention that those types of players are usually so hyped after gobbling up all the bullshit PR campaigns and media write-ups that there's no way in hell that any game would ever satisfy them.

As for your other points, you seem to be implying that unless a game has a massive audience that doesn't drop over time then it's a flop, but then you go on to complain about streamlined dumbed-down content(TM). If there's a game that will ever achieve such an user base, it will probably be the most streamlined game ever envisioned.

Anyway you're just grasping at straws and attempting to construe things that have been known and expected about the game for quite some time, if you had bothered to do any research on it, as these massive implementation failures. Your wankery about the time it takes to reach the level cap is pretty amusing, even, considering how any developer can mimic the exponential xp growth common in Korean MMOs. It doesn't relate 1:1 to content at all.
