Limited PvP -> PvE Free Character Transfers
The Cataclysm Classic Pre-Expansion Patch Arrives April 30
What game first sparked your interest in gaming? Was it World of Warcraft?
Hide "earned by" on Achievements
Did Blizzard just hotfix an ilvl requirement onto Awakened LFR?
MMO-Champion
Yup, with a sadness i have to say i feel let down somehow.
I just tried PvP out, kept trying it, persisted with it...keep going....must keep going....its rubbish (in my opinion)
If PvP is the big "end game" i think i will just have to give up now. Its a real shame as you can see the amount of work that has gone into GW2. I know i shouldnt say this as people will jump on my comment and turn it into something its not, but, GW2 just made me appreciate WOW so much more. Roll on 25th of Sep.

Could you comment a bit more about what you didn't like about the PvP? I am just curious. And btw, I don't think that you have to fear negative attention to your post as what you write is honest and direct, unless all these other heroes who have apparently never played the game but know it better then we who play it every day do... with guys like you, I have absolutely no problem however.

As i said you only get that when you switch zones, which seem to be the case here. If you get that while "questing" its simply you not understanding where the zone border goes.

The problem with Cataclysm was that the quest chains were extremely linear. As Ghostcrawler wrote: Originally Posted by Irony

Instead, you kind of had to start at the beginning and follow all the quests to the end, and if you didn’t like a quest, well, you had to stick with it to get to the next one. We want zones to have an identity, flavor and a story, but we don’t want to railroad players through a zone either."
To find out what happens in the GW2 universe, talk and listen to NPCs. There's a wealth of information in the world, but it's not being spoonfed to you via walls of text.
Obviously, that will not appeal to everyone; some people do prefer the quest chain model. But if you don't know what's going on in the GW2 universe, you likely rushed from one map marker to another without actually checking out the world, I'm afraid.
For example, right at the beginning of the human starting zone, in Shaemoor, there are several villagers that you can talk to and who will give you information. But they don't have yellow exclamation marks over their heads, so I'm pretty sure a lot of players never talked to any of them.

Stop spreading misinformation. You do NOT get overflow traveling between waypoints in the same zone. End of line. Originally Posted by mytrasher

Clearly you don't because I spent 2 hours in lions arch yesterday using waypoints to get all over the place as I leveled crafting explored and played the trading post and the only time I got thrown in the overflow is if I D/Ced or left the zone... So yes, keep talking out your ass Originally Posted by mytrasher

Closing this down. Was hoping that this thread wouldn't end up with personal attacks left and right and would be a place for people to discuss why they don't like the game and have others who don't share that opinion be respectful, but that hasn't been the case.
