Guild Wars 2: The One Thread

[zed zebes]

Also, I expect the China Release, Season 2 start and Dragon Bash to hit around the same time.

I still think it's weird they decided to have a long stretch of nothing in between not only ESO's release, but apparently Wildstar's as well.

[Valeron]

You don't think they will add anything for 3 months?

That is just conspiracy theory that games have to release something at the same time as another game to keep interest. It just shows Anet doesn't really care about that stuff, that or there is going to be a release in between.

I mean April 1st is coming up. SAB maybe... but we haven't heard a peep from that guy who was designing it since last release. I'm worried it won't come back.

Mmmm I do remember Josh posting about being disappointed that so few actually bothered with world two. I didn't complete it myself, it just seemed to long and too hard compared to the first one. I just used that time as a brake from LS. Playing alts and completing other achievements.

Sure hope they do. I don't mind a brake from content now and then but 3 months sound like a long time

I would die inside if that's going to happen. I already have ascended, 2 legendaries... WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO FOR 3 MONTHS? ;_; (getting a life is not going to happen)

[Meledelion]

Do what I do, play hearthstone!
It's surprisingly fun, didn't think I'd enjoy tcg but apparently I do

[Valeron]

I enjoyed hearthstone for about 3 weeks. haven't played it for 5 months

I just hate the rng associated with CCGs and TCGs

Yeah, I played it for about as long and stopped for about as long as you. It got boring fast, I'm not sure what the appeal is supposed to be.

[Meledelion]

I find there's very little RNG tbh and that's appealing to me. Another appealing thing is that it's highly tactical. It's also balanced really well. It's also quite competitive.

Whenever people blame rng/lag my bullshit meter goes off. People often blame those two when it usually isn't all that important, they just made a mistake and are oblivious to it.

Hearthstone (in my limited view) really is about skill level and hardly ever about rng. Making (little) mistakes back to back is very punishing in the long run so it often seems that the other person lucked out with drawing card X while it's highly likely that person was just stalling to get that card and you failed to pick up on that and wasted your CC.

I don't know what the statistics are, but I somehow doubt it's that uncommon for players to start looking around for something new when they grow bored of their current game.

Mmmm I do remember Josh posting about being disappointed that so few actually bothered with world two. I didn't complete it myself, it just seemed to long and too hard compared to the first one.

I quit bothering with it because it was so buggy. It took something like 5 hours worth of attempts just to get the achievement for infantile mode because certain checkpoints and/or the overall achievement was bugged. Every time they were like, "It's fixed!" It wasn't. I just didn't have the interest after that to bother with the other achievements. I always figured I'd just try again later when hopefully everything was working properly.

[Fencers]

Keep in mind this is the Guild Wars 2 forum, fellas. A little off topic conversation is fine, but there is a whole Hearthstone forum for specific discussion.

They haven't really said when stuff will actually come out, so who knows. There will be the features patch "some time" after March 18th, then season 2 will probably start at some point, but when?

We need a trailer for season 2!

I thought the point of adding the hard mode was to challenge folks that wanted the challenge, but then they also messed around with regular mode. I liked SAB for fun stuff, I don't want to have to look up how to do stuff.

I really doubt people didn't like sab 1.2 due to it being harder. To me it wasn't hard, just fucking frustrating. Oh look a hidden trap with no way of knowing where it is, FUUUUUN.

[Deleted]

I'm not a big fan of SAB. So it wouldn't add anything for me if they brought it back. I know it's good stuff for my guildies who are up for any challenge (and like the difficult ones) but it's not really my thing.

[zed zebes]

There's an April Fool's patch, but I don't think it will be new SAB.

I decided to finish off my Maguuma explorer and try to find what parts of the map I had not visited. (I have 100% completion) Turns out I missed Calx's Hideout and Aurora's Remains, which are both pretty cool areas. The event at Aurora's Remains is pretty neat. A mix of escort, jumping puzzle and a pretty tough champ boss. Great area for character screenshots as well.

I like to point out that they said there wouldn't be VIP for US/EU not China. China is a very very very different market - All this is common and wanted in China games.

Pretty much that. Though one of my friend's seven year old was watching us do it one night and apparently he thought the whole thing was hilarious, so I guess at least someone enjoyed it.

I thought they said the reverse? The VIP would be for China not US/EU? Or was that what you were trying to say? All the negatives in that sentence got me confused ><

The chinese GW2 guys said there would be NO VIP system in their country, right now there is not, there is just a "loyal system" (or something like that, it's just a game of words that fucked the chinese community, in our case we got told the same about VIP and VIP hasn't been present here (thank god!)
