I know it's just an event, but does anyone think it should or will stay. I think it's such a development that there is no way they couldn't keep it. It's too fun, clearly a lot of design and energy was put into it... I think/hope it stays... certainly would add replay value to the game.. especially since we'll have to wait longer for the next chapter... I haven't been playing but logged in and figured i would do a cheesey little race, but was really impressed by it.

I was hoping it would stay but then i thought, if it did stay m then we wouldn't have anything to look forward to next year.

No, sorry, RBA is an event-oriented game element. You may see it from time to time, but it won't be a permanent part of the game. It is great fun, isn't it?

I also would love it to stay. It makes an excellent distraction and i find it really fun. I also like what they did with the Beetle designs to make your beetle feel customized to you instead of just a plain blue/green/red/pink ect beetle. And dont get me started on the dances If it doesnt stay atleast bring it back for a few weekends like they did with the boardwalk.

I would love for it to have its Gamer Points boosted or stay with it's current scoring system.

Yes, I feel a lot more confortable with it being related to an event. People would get bored very fast if it was permanent, and considering the game has a lot of events from time to time, there will be a lot of other fun mini-games for us to play.

Yes it is, but... I hope the dev team will consider removing/altering the Super Rollerbeetle skill because it's completely overpowered now. In many ways racing would be more fun if that skill didn't exist. Also, giving (as of yet unknown) rewards to only the top 100 players (actually even less because some people got in the list more than once) is not so much fun either, especially considering that the main factor in getting those high scores is getting lucky with the bonuses. That said, I'm looking forward to seeing this mini-game again during other events.

They really need a 'fun arena' in the battle isles, that rotates weekly between Snowball Arena, Dragon Arena and Rollerbeetle Racing.

The Snowball Arena is Guildwars.

Everything else is a superfluous distraction.

My opinion: it should stay with different rules.

Reality: It will go, and return next year.

Thank you for not making it a permanent thing. Yes, they're fun, but the player base is spread thin enough.

It'd be more fun if there wasn't always so much lag on at night. I'd almost rather it be permanent just so the novelty wears off a little and I can play a game without having problems (not noticing problems out of the races).

Hope to see it again in the near future.

I totally wish it would stay around. If not permanent then at least a few more weeks.

If not lunar tokens, then something like monestary credits and maybe even cold, hard cash.

It's a good idea in theory, but in reality racing on the Guild Wars dial-up servers is just an excercise in frustration. One laggy race after another, and the woeful pathing system which ruined relic runs rears its ugly head here as well.

At least give us another "running game", I wouldn't mind doing the same without the Rollerbeetle thing to it, just for fun Make it a chapter 4 challenge mission please!
