Things you were surprised to not find in Guild Wars?

You are absolutely correct. My son and I play a 360 game that has that feature, and it is very disconcerting and disruptive to suddenly be in slow mo.

And? what? Why we need all this child molesters wizards with beard and pointy hat running around?


Cracked Mesa eat all Elephants...

Elves = bad game.
ewoks = bad movie.
ewoks + elves = asura

go to hell with elves and ewoks

No place for Ground-targetting AoE spells.

Agree with you.

Nothing personal poasiods, i only disagree with some of your points, make funny in another and agree with other..




What i want and dont see in GW? a pet running around and grabing my drops from ground (for sure... only asigned drops from noobs drops...).

Great RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing huge impressive bosses you need 1 hour to kill.

Monthly invasions from charrs, scales, tengu, summits in some places of world with unique bosses. I think its easy to implement and better double greens weekends.

Special monthly missions...

Sorry my weak english.

Having spent a little bit of time in other online games, the lack of an Auction House just amazes me. So much for casual if you want to sell something.

I'll have to look into this, however I heard that there is no AH or something like it planned for GW2. That in itself is epic fail on Anet's part if true. I have heard calls for an AH for almost 3 years - so much for really listening.
Really hope I'm wrong about this

Being able to kill something with 2 axes. Thats pretty much it... me want smash .

Pet monkey .

Swimming
Casting portals for jumping to town and return, without resetting the map.
Riding horseback
Freedom to go everywhere on the map, without blocking areas (mud, rocks, water, etc).
Random dungeons
Decent droprate of items (meaning 5-10 times better than it ever has been)
Levelling up to 50+
Combining items to create better ones
More variation in mostertypes, less mobs and more solo monsters
Playing solo (alone, without heroes/mercs) and survive at high levels
Non-personalized armor.
Abillity to build a wizzard tower and own things in the map (based on the one who enters a map).

Kung Fu Pandaaaaaaaaaaaas

GWG is pretty much the official forum. Maybe GWO...

Jumping...

Stop naming things from WoW.
This is guild wars, not WoW

Hot girls ;

Oh wait ..

Let's see...
Solo play (yeah I'm not in love with henches... or people)
Skill tree (not saying that would have worked)
2-hands swords/axe or Dual-weild (only prob with these 2 is that one of those 2 tends to be the absolute best for dmg dealing while the other is a RPer'S toy)
traditional stats (inteligence/strenght/agi/dext and so on)
Potions (I remember being in Nolani and realising there was no potion or Stats)

Just wait untill someone comes to you in GW2 with a Ranger Sylvari called Legolas The Elf.

Don't like Ewok? that's sad.

EDIT : "realising there was no potion now Stats" does that makes sence to you?

Mesmers not matching there description.

That you can't have a pet snake or serpent of some kind.

Horses!!! No wonder the Charr took Ascalon so easily - if only Prince Rurik had a mount!

I wouldn’t care if horses weren’t mounts, they’d of been fine as eye candy. The same with dogs, there’s one in Shing Jea Arena, but a few more dotted about would of been nice.

I also miss from previous games the inability to wield a two handed sword, not every warrior needs a shield. I know we have hammers but I miss swinging a great sword.

Ugh, elves suck.
The most over-used, boring otaku race ever.

Tolkien was the only one who did the Elves right.

Ah, wait? To NOT find?

Hm... not being able to go bck to pre-Searing.
Not being able to charm the Moss Spider.
Not entering houses and such.
Doors that lead to nowhere.
No real flying creatures... they just hover.
Female Elementalist Heroine.
Town portals.
Three more areas in the Charr lands.
Changing builds in by hitting F1..F4 along with the weapons in PvE while outside of battle and with no enemies in radar range.
Doors that open an close when you use them, nut by using a lever and such.
More stuff in guild halls, like animals and such.
Something behind Rotscale. (Why the hell is it there? What is it guarding?)
Thing to do in many places of Kryta an Maguuma, where you don't have to go EVER. For NOTHING AT ALL (except exploration).
More areas at the northeast and southwest in Cantha.

And... the favorite of kids: Xunlai Marketplace. (Yay! I said it once again!)

Completely out of topic :
That idea would have been awesome for the game. Guild wars is about specialisation. But when you have to be ready to counter 10 different kind of builds (vq-ing), the best solution comes back to pure damage.

Simply having 2-3 skill bars (not stats), could allow a mesmer to play more than CoPain spike or 80%ElemSkills support when playing HM.

The topic is "things you were surprised to find weren't in GW". Stuff from WoW (or generic fantasy in general) could well fall in that category...

I think that falls under "Z Axis"...

Care to elaborate?

I expected there to be more armour sets. I understand your not going to have as many diffrent armour skins with the crafting system, but I wish GW had a little more diversity in this regard.

Thus, I was very upset with EoTN...
