GW - GW2: Must keeps!

You know... there are threads about what should be changed or added for GW2, but what about thoughts on things that are an absolute "must keep"?

For example, in the future non-instanced world, I think it's a definite "must keep" to continue to assign drops and prevent loot stealing. This could also be enhanced to have a longer time period it's assigned, and if you don't get to it in that amount of time it goes away.
Other "must keeps" imo...

Limited skill bars (eight is good)
Low level cap (I know it's going away, but at least minimalize the effects of higher levels... this is just opinion)
The Graphics Team - maybe even give them a pay raise
Dungeons (these are addictive)
Mini-maps and the ability to draw/ping them (in a non-instanced world only your party sees it)
Parties

There are so many little things in the game that we take for granted, but imagine if they were forgotten...

Every time a GW2 thread is created, a kitty gets LOL'd. Stop the abuse before it's too late.

What would we have done if people were saying that about GW1 threads before IT was released?

Besides, this isn't REALLY a GW2 thread, more a thread about what's in GW1 that you don't want to see go away in the future.

Guru is full of idiots these days.

I'd also argue that it's less the dungeons being addicting and more the loot: Provide good incentive to repeat areas and people will stay in them for long, long periods of time.

There's a space based game I've been playing that also has a mini-map... you can click on the mini-map and move to that location.

We need MORE click to move, not less!

Of course, that would clash with pinging, ...

One thing i want more than anything is the click to move option. I hate wasd and arrow keys like you wouldn't believe. Second would have to be assigned drops. Please don't make the drop system similar to EQ where players have to bid their points in order to get an item. Lastly, if there will be dungeons make sure they don't all look similar like the ones in EoTn.

you're one of the biggest trolls on gwg, yet people look up to you like you're some hilarious community figure. pathetic. are you 11?


on the other hand, i think about this a lot OP. my main concern is the focus on skill>equips, and that our skill bars wont be 5 feet long. also, a game that doesnt req grind never existed till guild wars (as far as mmo's go), so thats another feature im hoping stays true to the series.


this is a very viable thread, seeing as it's just a simple opinion of what you like about the current game, that you'd like to see carry over into the other, what the hell is wrong with all you childish kids?


btw, watch the mods yell at me, like i'm some jerk, because i defend the tiny bit of integrity this site retains.

That's because he is a hilarious community figure He also generally knows what he's talking about, and on that level yes, he gets respect. Some of us find it nice when people talk who understand what they're talking about. Yes, he's a 1 liner master but...I'm sorry, it adds flavor to the forum imo.

Never trolled in my life. I'm blunt, with a bit of 'lol' mixed in.

I have fans too seriously...it's weird, but true. Not my fault.
