So very dissapointed

every game becomes Tetris/Pong/Supermario... everyone loves it plays it, gets tired of it and leaves... few days/weeks/months/years "oh my god! i love this game! i wonder if i can still play it like before" you can't "damn, i have to play better" you come back...

one person becomes addicted for life (games wise) it simply gets easier to leave for a bit...

i don't get all this angry people... She(OP) just said she was tired of the game... if you(guys that can't get tired of getting people down) think its so easier to disconnect from the online community simply do... if you think the rest of us is not that worth of your time simply leave... you don't need to bash on our heads with hammers... in 4 pages of this topic i noticed that only two full hands showed support to the OP, the rest i am surprised they showed we are indeed worth of their time as they could simply post "shut up"...

GW has so many things to do xD that sometimes i can't even decide what to do...


to the OP, like some of the guys before me, you do well taking a break... and by posting this you showed to everyone a choice you made and this is thanks to what Gayle said... in GW is possible to choose... you don't have to continue paying while not playing.... so just take a break... and return for the next two chapters(at least) of this great game...


cheers

I know I'll get tired of GW before the GW2 comes out. I mean really, there's simply not enough content to keep me occupied for another two years. But there's nothing wrong with being bored and trying something else. For me, it's only going to make me more excited for when GW2 comes out.

While I know that GW:EN isn't going to be anywhere near as good as the other campaigns have been, it is good having something for my existing characters to do, and hopefully it will keep me playing for a little while longer.

If you don't think it will, don't buy it. If you would like to see what's coming up, do. It's as simple as that. This has been, and is, a great game.

U seem to get mad at the person who made this topic? Obviously GW has so much significance in your life because u cant stand people sharing their experiences? Obviously YOU here are the weak person


U still that mad on people who dont like PvP because there are so many good people out there its almost impossible to start with PvP if you are up against devoted PvP players who get mad at people who dont like PvP... like you?

She is just trying to accomplish what she wants with this game... Gaining titles to be proud of... I guess you dont give a shit about That.



Mayb You should go. Flaming other people does NOTHING good to the GW community


Obviously... It is. She's been playing for 18 months now and i think GW is a PRETTY GOOD game if people play it over 1.5 years (ive been playing for 20 months and still enjoy )

So id like you to shut up and do nice to people... tyvm

Support her for what?
This entire thread was started from the fact that she failed to understand something written in the PC gamer article and came here to post yet another [Anet broke their promise] thread.

If you want to come here and hold someones hand and "support" them for being flat wrong go for it. That still won't make her point valid.

BTW we can't just post "shut up" they have a minimum amount of characters you must use to post a reply.

You get bored of something, you do something else, you may come back later or may not. It's a natural process. Right now I'm only playing GW to run elite missions and the like and PvP with my alliance, playing DoW once in a while with a couple friends, leveling a Warlock to 70 in WoW, (Bleh, grinding) planning on starting a guild in Warhammer Online when that comes out... The list goes on. Maybe it's just the type of person I am, but I like doing different things.. and it stops me from starting to hate something just because I spend so much time doing it.

You should be playing GW for fun and do the things that are fun... you dont play a game to do "work"

I have played for close to 25 months now, and more than 1,000 hours on my warrior alone, and close to 2000 account wise, I am currently working on my 8th and 9th maxed title on my warrior (legendary skill hunter) which I am very close to accomplishing. Simply your problem is your not getting a break from the game, I have other games such as WarCraft 3 (not a WoW fan :P), UT2K4, and a couple of others that, when I "rarely" need a break from GW, I play them along with GW or them alone for a week or so. You basically brought the prediciment on yourself.

And come on, only 11 titles lol? There's so much to do in the game besides constantly progressing through it. Go to the RA and get in a conversation with someone, help new players to the game out, create new builds and try them out. Tons of other things I could think of.

I myself am very busy trying to get "People Know Me" and possibly "I'm Very Important" before GW:EN releases, I woulden't give up on GW yet, think about it, basically your saying you want to just go ahead and throw away all those months in the game out for what, WoW, where you'll actually be paying monthly for color-pixeled stress relieving and enjoyment? I'd rather have a steak and a free mmorpg quite frankly =)

I can still have a life with GW... come back, and not have to worry about being left behind. If GW is your sole entertainment, then you need to stop playing before you comsume it all and get bored with it...

Wow, you got terrible spelling and grammar. I'm not trying to make it look bad for you, but if you are going to insult them, by telling them to shutup ect, do it with decent english, instead of trying to figure what you wrote.

I would agree with Surena about what he said. Its quite clear you didnt get any if not all of his points. And its not to do with "sharing your GW experience" the OP is clearly complaining about not enough content in the game. If someone doesn't like the content of that game, and refuses to play it, then complains about having no content. Seems like a dumb revelation to me.

And why would any of us care what she does in the game? I didn't know that by posting here, was to help the GW community at all. And I didn't know that the OP posting a topic of the game lacking content and complain about it was "helping the community" either. All that GWG offers, is that GW players come together in a forums. THATS IT, nothing more.

And how is the game designed to please you? People create a game, because they want to create a game, and how they create the game is up to the developers, not towards the public. Some, might develop a game because the game can make a lot of money, but they only do it for the money, not for the public either. Also is that Anet's fault, if someone is bored because they played for extremely long hours over a long period of time and DOESN'T do all of the content that GW offers?

Seems like you are taking it hard from criticism.

It's a game. If you didn't enjoy it, you shouldn't have spent so much time playing it. Go play WoW if that's what you want to do, you deserve it.

Pretty much my thought there - I'm not her "hubby" so I have no need to support her misreadings. Nor does Anet - they aren't going to change what they did because a few (or one) individuals have a poor ability at reading. If one *really* wants their inability to understand what another says to be a "lie" my guess is that they will have large problems in life in general. I guess they have trouble with "if..then.." types if ideas.

All of the OP's concerns were addressed in the article. The level cap increase was *not* GW1 related (plus they *strongly* supported the idea it was a number only, not a real advantage as the OP seems to want) and that the Hall of Monuments had more than simply herself viewing them. They *do* carry on to GW2 characters.

In fact, her observations are so incorrect I do not know which she is: A troll or just has that large an inability to understand the written word. Personally I hope she is just a troll, the rest is so grossly incorrect it is laughable. Though I'm sure the Anet complainers (and her "hubby") sure "support" it if she is truthful. It appears to mostly be a post that is an amalgam of all the complaints along with the idea that having 20+ characters makes it more valid (I would have found 12 more so - one of each class, one pre-sear, and one PvP).

Uh huh - if they are telling the truth then they *really* need to take a look at what they are doing.

Just do what I do, a month of GW and month of WoW and a month of CoH. That keeps every game feeling fresh.

remember kids - "The higher your level, the bigger your e-penis will be!

One thing I'd like to clarify:

The "mis-statement" by Jeff Strain about "character development beyond level 20" was in PC Gamer. It is possible he was mis-quoted or his entire quote was edited. (ie, some examples of what "character development" would entail).

I blame PCGamer for the confusion, not Anet, who never promised higher levels in Guild Wars.

To avoid further confusion, there will be no new Chapters for Guild Wars.

The only projects confirmed by Anet are:

Eye of the North (GWEN); an expansion to the current Guild Wars

Guild Wars 2; a whole new game

I really mean no offense Blue, but when I start feeling like GW is "work," I'm walking away. A game should be fun, an escape from the real world. Not work.

So because of hear-say and speculation and "ehat the game might be like", your disapointed?

You said yourself, that one minute they talked about increasing level cap and then changed their mind.

The game is months (GWEN) and years (GW2) away from release and your already making a post about how YOU are "disapointed". Well im sorry, but who cares.

The game could be absolutely NOTHING like what its said to be so far. It could change.

But quite honestly, I have read the same things you have and I like the sounds of both GW:EN and GW2. So.... big woop, I dont really care if it isnt what YOU want. There are still 1000s of players who have said how great it sounds.

Dont make negative comments about something that hasnt even been released yet. No one is in any position to judge or comment on it at ALL.

b...b...but this is guru, thats all they do.

You claim to have enjoyed playing the game, and yet it was work. I am curious as to how you reached that conclusion. Further, a title, an exclusive "something", is nothing? Go look up what "nothing" actually means...


They have said, repeatedly from launch, the level cap would NOT be increased. Please try to know what you are talking about BEFORE posting.


Why do people always have an urge to post crap like this on the forums, and then rarely actually leave?

EDIT - Wait, I have an idea. Maby I will post a new "Guild Wars is Doomed, I'm Quitting" thread each week, so as to better fit into the crowd. What do you think?

In GW however, everybody's e-penis is the same size!

I cant argue with that logic!

But people... if you stop enjoying the game, then stop playing. And if you feel the game is grinding, then shock-horror! Its an MMO.... they all involved grind to some degree or another.

GWs is actually good because it has a storyline to follow, unlike other MMOs which are purely go kill things.

If you have done everything, then either roll a new char or go play a different game. I personally like grinding for titles, aslong as they feel worth it.

hell, its not even an MMO, its an online multiplayer Action Adventure RPG

simple

And RPGs never include grind?

well...

they will be based on GW.... they will be new chapters of the same thing... i never said they would be the same game...

harry potter has 7 chapters but 7 different books... imho its not the same thing...


keep on posting

I'd just like to point something out that I'm surprised no one else has said (unless I missed it in which case I apologize). Who says "character development beyond level 20" has to mean a higher level cap? Isn't GW:EN all about more content for lvl 20 characters? As far as I can tell, they never explicitly stated that the level cap would be raised; people just misinterpreted it that way.

it has been officially stated here more than once that GWEN will not have a level cap raise.

the super high cap is GW2

who knows how those PVE ONLY SKILLS will be handled.

do certain things and you might gain power which is certainly character development.

wait and find out.

I'm mildly curious...the "good old days" of GW pvp. When was that? Seeing as ANet has purportedly "ruined" pvp so many dozens of times, when was this golden age of pvp? When GW first came out? That would be...oh yes, when people used HH/HB Wammos in halls, and other random rubbish. Right, that was an enlightened period. Strike 1...let's see...when...IWAY dominated the PvP gw world? That was fun, I think that was when I enjoyed pvp the least, except when we ran FoC spike to counter it. It was the most mindless, yet dominating mechanic I have ever seen. Obviously ANet was more enlightened before they nerfed IWAY, because of course, stagnation is always good. Strike 2...let's see...factions came out...ho hum...oh yes, Nightfall came out, less enlightened, but not so much so that we didn't all jump on the Searing Flames ship. Another good, easy to use mechanic, to be shortly followed by the UNDERpowered BoA sin, but oh no, ANet had to nerf that too eh? And here we are, in the dark age.

Just because you don't enjoy Pve doesn't mean you have to degrade it. Furthermore, pvp is fine right now, people just don't appreciate the fact that things CHANGE.

Finally, with the success ANet has had with GW, its doubtful that GW2 will flop; obviously they've done something right, and they know how to repeat success.

I think it was mentioned that at least some of them would be based on the reputation you have with the different "factions" (asurans, dwarves, norn - hopefully they won't be mutually-exclusive) within Eye Of The North.
