And now my thread takes on a new meaning. Redux on 2nd day of 2nd run through, LOLZ commence!

If anyone can test this, what happens if you had the quest from 2 days ago if you try to get the quest today. Is it a seperate instance so you can get 2 bounties for killing him. Or is it like zaishen.

Bleh!

I logged in sunday morning to get saturday's quest, logged in again sunday night to get sunday's quest, hoping to do 3 in a row tonight when I finally have some time to play. No such luck.

I'd rather they finish unloading the rest of WiK instead of making sure that every boss implemented has a bounty.

I'm a working person with a family so for me it's perfect that they don't push
things into the game to fast.

Nop its just fine as it is now.. And if I have to kill some bosses twice.
so be it. No problems with that. The only thing I want (litle of topic I'll know) is becouse I'm so short on time sometimes. I am forced to play with hench and hero's couse my guildies are not always playing when I can. Is that they
improve the droprate for players playing with H&H.

Men that is so frustrating.

The rest.. sure keep repeating the wanted. It's a nice in between.

Not only that but certain toons (10 in all) can’t pick up the bounty of the day, without having any bounty selected from any previous day. A guild member also had this happen to him yesterday. I though it was his fault yesterday, but now I am certain it’s bugged now. I owe him an immense apology now.

same problem here, 2 of my chars are not able to pick todays bounty up. I get to the wanted sign and there is no exclamation mark.

maybe they have moved it to more than a one day availability? (I had not had time to do either of the vatar or amelek so I have no new ones either right now)....since the pool they are drawing from is quite small, maybe they are going to have them for a couple of days instead of just one.

Strange. I have 5 chars that have access to LA keep, and they were all able to take today's Amalek. Exclamation mark there as usual. And yesterdays' Vakar.

Today's bounty was not offered to my character either.

Yesterday I had Vakar repeating. One character picked it up but didn't do it; I didn't get round to collecting it on the others. Today I've been able to get Amalek on one character, but not the other three. The one who could get Amalek today wasn't the one who got Vakar yesterday. I can't find a pattern here.

And frankly, there are several other F2P MMO's that do regular content updates, so Anet is no godsend in that regard either. Stop defending Anet like its' some kind of revolutionary thing. It's a company plain and simple. This is part of their business model and necessary to get good publicity so they can push out GW2. That is all, it has nothing to do with Anet being so dam "magnanimous" as some of you tend to say in praising them.


If Linsey getting sick set this whole thing back a month, then something is wrong with how work is assigned and delegated. And last time I got sick, I still did what I had to. Excuses are OK, but not when Anet is consistently lagging behind. Whatever happened to 2 months for skill updates?



Everyone will be buying GW2 and so will you, you will perform gold medal caliber mental gymnastics to justify your purchase in your own mind and never realize that not one person gave a shit.

perhaps they've removed those pathetic 3/1 reward bounties, leaving only a few that are reasonable

I can't get today's Wanted quest either (I have only one character who can access the keep.) I'm sure I didn't do it already today, but I did complete "Wanted: Amalek the Unmerciful" a few days ago with a friend.

There's no ! at the Wanted sign, and I don't have any active Wanted bounties in my quest log at all, nor the Riverside Assassination thing (already did it.)

After the update, new SBB = Justiciar Kimii @ Riverside Province (explorable) for 15+ 7 war supplies.

IIRC, she is in the centre of the fort?

Not true.

I'm sorry but Anet's update quality has gone seriously down since its first release. I don't blame the Live Team, always blame the upper management. I play GW1. I will not play GW2, but that is for different reasons. How hard or unreasonable is that to comprehend?

About time they finally fixed the repeating bounties. Better late than never though.

Very, actually. You've gotten ridiculously high entertainment value for your money from GW1. Whether or not you agree with all the decisions ANet made, including their decision to leave a skeleton crew on as the Live Team, at the most fundamental level you have to enjoy GW's gameplay or you wouldn't be on a forum posting about it. GW2 is (promising, at least) to be all that, but better. I understand being a little apprehensive, of course, but flat out saying "I will not play GW2" when we haven't even seen a demo, based primarily (I am guessing) on the support work of 3-5 employees, when there will literally be hundreds of people working on GW2 once it's released...no, it doesn't make sense to state that you will not play GW2 so flatly and with such conviction.

Yes...they took all of a day or two after it became an obvious issue to fix it. Let's still grumble about it for a while.

I wonder if today being Insatiable Vakar is another bug, or that the cycle is finally repeating itself as intended.

When I started this thread I didn't know that I was predicting the future. +1 for muh foresight skillz!

It is an utter joke, after every update the cycle restarts, oops the zaishen did the same thing back when it came out. Ctrl+v FTW!

If this hasn't been mentioned yet.. the cycle is repeating because the cycle is being reset every time they add a new WIK main quest.

It reset when the 2 inquisitor bounties were added, it reset again when Lovisha and Riverside Assassination was added, this time it reset because A little help from above was added.

It's resetting because Anet is adding new content, not because we're running out of possible bounties.

We already have zaishen bounties, right? They even ctrl+v that, did you see the bug that said zaishen bounty on the wanted sign. I mean these guys ctrl+v lots of stuff and you praise the ground they walk on.

Yes programming is tricky and takes time, so don't waste time on cons and summoning stones plx. Hell before too long, everytime you log into guild wars you get a free set of party, drunk and sweet tooth points.

I am just looking at this like someone who was here at the beginning. They weren't worried about hand holding the gimptards back then!
I'm probably too late but...What the heck are you on?

1) It's fantastic there even is new content coming out, given the company is in top gear of production of a sequel. We don't "praise" the ground they walk on, you spit on it for no good reason, demanding they worship *you*.

2) "gimptards"? I, for one, have about 5 characters to pull through all of the quests coming out, while handling other business. I am not even through A Little Help From Above on all of them, and that's not because I'm "slow", thank you very much. It happens to be because I don't spend every waking moment logged in and then complain when I run out of things to do.

3) If you are going to berate a company that gives you all of this free content, by all means, uninstall, subscribe to WoW like the 12 million other addicts of the world who just can't live without their fresh, new daily grinds.

4) A *lot* of people have been here from the beginning, or very close to it. You don't have a gifted opinion, you are just acting selfish and don't consider all the work that goes into making content. It's like complaining about free food and beverages; just, wow, there are so many of you who do it.
