a-kyle

dread slayer
Well.... An auction house? New pvp area? Ugh.. it's hard to think when your half asleep. :P
Still Number One
A better tiebreaker for GvG. Or at the very least, a damage chart to show how much damage each team has on the opposing team's lord at any given time during the match (If not in-game then at least in obs mode).
Gift3d
Since the number of things they can do are endless, i'll just add some things i'd like to see done.
PvP
We already know removing heroes from HA and GvG is being worked on.
for HA, remove forgotten shrines, add broken tower back or some sort of kill count.
for GvG, like still said, a better tiebreaker
^ i consider those two things big.
PvE
Stop the speed clears, stop the dungeon running, encourage people to at least try playing guild wars.
Maybe add some new content, like new elite areas for dwayna, melandru, and lyssa like we've been asking for forever
s'all for me.

Signs are pointing to some kind of actual new quests/content. Zquests have milked the existing stuff dry.
Kook~NBK~
I wouldn't get excited about the possibility of another big update coming in August. Because there's just as much of a possibility of there NOT being one in August. They've still got the XTH thing to get worked out, and there are still some unresolved bugs popping up that need worked out.
My advice is don't hold your breath and don't be disappointed if there isn't another "big update" coming within the 3 or 4 month timeframe that A-Net set as a goal.

I'd say they'd give Dervishes a stupidly ridiculous boost for PvE.

First they forced us to buy EoTN for Ursan.
Then Factions for SF.
Now Nightfall for Dervish.
That, or that add ridiculously overpowered skills to prophecies.
I want bamph.

GW 2...
yeah?
yeah?
Aeon221
I bet people would complain less if Anet did a Valve style video before every major update. (edit example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PyNuriXG3BQ )
I demand a retroactive Paragon and Ritualist video, preferably with the paragon spear-sniping the ritualist's head into bloody goo, and then giggling.

Actually they force us to buy nightfall for the imbagon, but yes i can see the imba dervish coming pretty soon 
EPO Bot
I want a new use for skillpoints. Something cheap, like trading them for candy and booze. Or maybe trade ten of them for a zkey? Ever since the zquests came out, those useless points are racking up like crazy.

If it does come, about time. Either way I'm done with gw, so meh.
The guy who mentioned GW2... yeah that is the only thing that will pump up life imo.

Storage for books/consumables/event items.
Make books, runes, insignias, inscriptions and mods stackable.
Xunlai Marketplace - or at the very least a mod/inscription trader.
Minion & spirit interface.
Ability to make/purchase max armor festival hats.
7 heroes.
Unused/crappy elite skills buffed.
Overused/imba skills nerfed.
Make pets more useful or just better.
Add more incentive (ie: a LOT more gold) to quests and missions.
Most, if not all of these ideas have been suggested for ages. Let's hope at least some of them make it into the next build.

MetalMan
why are people still saying marketplace, when anet have outright said they don't have the expertise to do it?
(don't ask me to find where they've said it, i can't remember the page, but i know its been said)

@ MetalMan
It might have something to do with the fact that sometime last year Anet also said that they couldn't afford to make new storage or equipment space in the game, because of programming and the purchasing of new server space would be required (or something along those lines).
Hey, if they could do that when they said they couldn't, who's to say they can't do the Xunlai Marketplace?

Kenzo Skunk
I guess that marketplace would require much more time, effort and money to program the code, test it and implement it in the game than it was with adding another slot in the chest and purchasing the server.
This game is in it`s sunset stage, after all, so it probably wouldn`t pay out.

What I'd like to see.
Seven heroes. Given that there are currently 26 heroes, of which we only get to use 3 at a time, it would make outfitting them more worthwhile if we could bring more. Also, if they were going to do this they could make some of the more well used/liked henchmen into heroes (Devona, Cynn, Mhenlo, Herta, etc.)
Allow heroes to use 1 class-based pve skill in pve. I'm not exactly expecting this one, but it'd be nice.
Improve pets and pet use. Some form of bar compression is needed. Some direct improvement to pets would be nice too. As it is currently, monsters can run up to you and attack immediately, pets on the other hand, run up to a target and wait for almost 2 seconds before attacking. I'm not sure if increasing their attack speed would actually help, or just a change in their general mechanics of how they engage targets would be better.
Paragon's motivation line needs some love.
This may not even be a doable request, especially since I understand why it is the way it is. Can we get Dervish Avatars to keep their class based emotes, but still have dervish attack animations?

My number one PVE idea would be..
A new elite dungeon near old Ascalon for maximum 4-6 player.
Maps and encounters would be the same as pre sear Catacombs, only beefed up a bit.
Maybe with a few random elements with it so you actually have to play it and not just wiki walkthrough. And definitely not for perma or 600/smites.

The next update will focus a bit on pvp love, as they've said. It's a reworking of HB, tweaks to AIs in HA and GvG, maybe a few skill balances and that's about it...
I kinda want to see polymock PvP implemented.
Also, rework the ascalon, yak's bend, lions arch, shing jea, kamadan and other "newb" arenas to something like the costume brawl, but with standard RA rules instead of cap points. Give all players the stats(armor, weapon damage and health) of a fixed level, a fixed bar without elite skills and let them go at it. This way higher level players can join in with lower levels, a sort of training arena.
Also, pet buff. Now that you can swap pets out quickly and unlock them account wide, give each pet a unique ability or two. Like the Black Bear's [Brutal Mauling], make that do something, and give each pet a similar skill. Since you have to sacrifice space on your skillbar to bring and maintain the thing, at least give us something to compensate for that. Also, the pet shouts need to add:"your pet's next attack occurs 50% faster" or something, especially on the pet attacks that interrupt.
Also, small pet peeve(no pun intended...) Why does factions get 3 elite pets for the monument but every other campaign gets just the spider... I'd like to see an endgame pet(ike the pheonix) and a "quest pet"(like the black moa) in proph, NF and EotN. Like reskin a Albino Melandru's stalker for the endgame pet, and maybe a runt dolyak like yakkington(shrink the existing model) as a quest pet in proph. EotN already has the Rainbow Phoenix as a "quest pet" but GIVE IT A GODDAM STATUE ALREADY!.... Maybe a dove or something in the endgame(reskined raven), maybe a runt dragon, like of of glint's offspring, but smaller so she gives it to you... might look cool... I dunno what for the NF, but something.... Maybe a beetle... people seem to like the beetles... anyway, not likely, just seems weird is all...

A new elite area.
The Catacombs sound nice,so does the Dwayna,Melandru and Lyssa elite areas.

I believe there will be some PVP stuff. Not sure what since I don't play it but I guess there will be. I also guess they will do something to buff the dervish quite a bit. I am also hoping for a good content update with new areas and quests. Not to Sorrows Furnace level but something good. Although I would like to see the 7 hero addition I don't think it will happen now. I do think it will eventually happen but once GW2 gets closer or the player numbers drop off. It would be something that would help to increase the sale of this game and allow areas of the game to be played with a full team once players start to migrate to GW2 etc. IT may change after the HoM reward comes out but we will see. The new god realms I don't think will happen until later if at all and when it doers I think it will be in conjunction with the addition of a full hero group. I do not see the heroes being able to use any PVE skills. The game would be terribly easy with that implementation.
Eddie Frenzy Spam
The update will be based on PvP, since last one was PvE.
I think it will probably be a HB over haul, I would like to see some HA and GvG changes but I dunno if these will happen.

i just want an auction house similar to runescapes grand exchange. and ye more heroes i h8 henchmen theyre dumber then my bro and thats pretty dumb lol
Lyphen
A huge waste of time and effort on Hero Battles.
Short
Make a Realm of Lyssa tbh, have mirrors everywhere and different levels, but on one level of the area if you get me. That would be so RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing cool.
Or they could nerf Shadow Form, that is worth a quarterly update tbh.

Lindsey has suggested publicly that NEW pve maps are not really likely, given the work that such things entail. However, they did hire a full-time art person for the live team, so I'll happily eat my words if we get new areas.
I'm still betting on PvE questlines along the lines of the titan quests--new spawns and maybe new critters in existing maps. Things alluded to, that happen after the plotline of EotN...Charr wars, perhaps, in old Ascalon?
And what people above me said-- serious revisions to heroes in PvP, and, as A-Net has publicly said, more nerfs to team speed clears.

since we all know that any more talk of GW2 wont come untill next year would it be so bad if they release a pack containing a couple new dungeons, a side story line, new skills and a couple new heros? along with maybe a new class?
Scythe O F Glory
Yeah I would really like to see a new realm of the gods, one that countered the most imba of builds such as the Perma and the Imbagon. Make it similar to Sorrow's Furnace in that you have to take each quest individually. Also make it super-hard with really worthwhile rewards: NOT greens, some NEW sexy weapon skins, maybe a new armor set that you can't just farm the materials for.
