"Longest Set of Guild Wars Update Notes Ever"
countesscorpula
Maybe they are refering to Guy Fawkes Day (Remember remember the 5th of November).
dr love
that Guy Fawkes post cracked me up... but seriously where's today's update? Sounds to me like the poor gw support team is overworked.

I'll give it another hour before this so-called skill update... they must all have colds or allergies...

Could the OP please edit the title of the topic to "Longest Set of Guild Wars Update Notes Ever?" or something similar? The current title topic title has already started to fuel mistaken expectations.
Thanks.

Actually, not that that really matters much, since I usually have to read the update notes to get an idea of what was changed.
But still!

Remember, remember

why the gun powder treason

For the record, GW isn't a MMO. And it's not suppose to have grind, which is what is being fixed in this major update. If you want grind, which it seems you do by your comment, then go make a 1 man migration to WoW.

Two things. ANET should notice that RA/TA is a completely separate entity from GvG/HA. The whole dynamic is different. They need to STOP nerfing something because it is overpowered in one and generally fine in the other. Blood Magic is next to crap in RA/TA, while in GvG/HA it seems to be murdering people left and right... So what do they do? Nerf the whole entire thing. -Rolls- Anet, make the distinction between RA/TA PvP skills and GvG/HA PvP skills. Okay? Can you do that instead of pissing me off by ruining my builds!
Two. Rangers can spike casters easily, but if you throw them up against a Warrior or a Paragon, they're next to screwed. A ranger that is built to utilize Dexterity and Accuracy (RtW or FW) is promised to have no decent healing, maybe condition removal... As much as casters can be spiked by Rangers, Casters can spike right back. It's the skill of the Ranger as an interrupter then that proves who wins. Dexterity WAS fine. Now? Use Flail and swear vigorously at Anet for screwing up one more build.
That's all. If this was the big update that they spent so much energy and time on, well, the words, "Epic Fail" come to mind...

And asking for RA/TA and GvG/HA split will make skill balancing too difficult. They are not the same, but they are close enough. And a full Blood build, imo, has always been too good. So, shhhh.

To bad that the QQ'ing has already started. Of course it comes from idiots who don't know when the real update is coming.

Reminds me very nicely why I used to adore GW and why I rarely play it these days.

GW may be dead (according to some, of course) but Linsey is definitely not! GG Linsey, hope you're doing ok and you'll get the rewards of your hard work for us next week.

Longest update notes was this: http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Game_updates/20080807 - a pretty recent one, tons of skill changes and hero ai adjustments made all those lines of text.
The biggest update ever in terms of the amount of actual changes was NF release http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Game_updates/20061025.
Can we really expect this coming one to have comparably looooooong update notes? Seems unbelievable, it's going to be just a title rebalance with adjustments and new ways to earning them, 2 titles going account-wide and some rewards becoming easier. More than 200 lines of text?
I'm not getting my hopes up too high but I may get pleasantly surprised.

Will be interesting to see this update, considering the hype.
I'm guessing it'll be bad, and everyone will rage.

only way this new update could be a problem is if they split more skills. no more splitting. none, zero, not any. id really like to see a new set of elite choices for the primary professions. break the evis/word monopolies. they should do now what they intended to do after the release of factions and nf. bring the factions elites up a bit, knock down the nf ones and leave prof skills alone. personally i could care less about the titles because they just lead to grind which leads to abuse of mechanics/pve skills.
again though, keep in mind, you mess with damage (powercreep) you need to keep the monks on par... monks are the center of balance, if you want to adjust things, look at monks first and go from there.

largets update NOTES!
not largest update in general (like 100MB)
And this weeks update was frustrating, so many skills that need to be fixed and they only balanced some stuff because of GW's nemesis, SPIKE!

its going to be pretty big but no SF or DOA style update ofcouse. she does mention the notes being whats big and that would make obvious sense. Just typing out the names of the different titles would be enough for me lol
I recon she has a slight secret shes not tellin us of though , a new feature to the game. I ofcouse may be wrong, do not over estimate or underestimate teh size of this update.
lol she loves us..she used the L word...awww

I just got excited about reading the update when it hits.... C'mon, let's make it a novel!

Im surprised how little information has leaked about this update. Usually there's people who somehow get a hold of the update's content and spill it all over Guru and other forums. Good secret-keeping, Anet.
