Upcoming GW:B Work

He talks about seeing the ramifications of releasing Palawa Joko.

Sounds like some mummy beatings will be in the future

We'll be visiting Cantha after Keiran+Gwen is resolved. September was mentioned, but he also said they're a bit behind.

So we will gwen finally being nice to the poor guy? and i hope this means they will add new stuff to catha.

i wonder if this means a quest or new cut sences.


Dervish skill changes are being worked on. Trying to make it more fun to play.

Oh nice! maybe now my derv can finally finish her titles without having to use an der/a build. lols


One issue with 7 hero teams was pvp teams of 1 person and 7 heroes. Talks about 7 hero teams not hurting anyone, and how hard some WiK stuff was with henchmen. He's open to 7 hero teams, but says they're working on something new involving heroes.


Now this rocks. i tried to pug but having to do the same thing over and over becuase a pug wont listen isnt fun. Yeah doing the WiK quests was hard with henchies. having your monk hench die over and over isnt fun. And you cant always find human help to do the quests.


There are new items in the works.
There will be new consumables.

I only hope these wont be like the polar bear where only the rich and very very very lucky can get them.


Like to make new festivals.

This will be cool if and only if it comes with nice quests,items and other stuff.


[He would] love to add new stuff to festivals. Personal fan of Halloween.

i hope this means easy quests and stuff you dont have to bend back wards touch this with a flaming sword in your mouth to get it.

Looking forward to seeing the paragon updates, events and consumables.

eta....april 2011?

looks like some good stuff for the most part. Im excited to see that they are even considering hero reworks/7 hero teams. But really now... why do we need more cons?

On topic: It will be great to see more new content and story line.

Anet has a history of pushing back updates; his/her words are valid.

On this whole GW: B Cantha deal, would anyone like to take a stab at what the opposition will be? Seeing as how Shiro and his forces were completely wiped out (twice), I'm curious.

kinda sad about this b/c now were going to be getting harder stuff in my favorite campign . but im also gonna guess those jade brotherhood are gonan get a boost.

eh NF.. really dont care(just dont like the campign lol) but should be interesting.

got a derv. looking forward to this.

OMG i want this so badly.. no more ahving to deal with the horribad proph henchies!(and it will make BLA feasible )

like this. im also open to more cons just dont make them too under powered or over powered.. and not like * you must trade 30e for 1/2 of this item*

i like new festivals.. and it works well with new items

haha its my favorite too. maybe they can add yr long costume brawl so we dont have to grind/have bots get as much gamer pts as we can shove into a weekend without sleep!. also heres to hoping for non suckish hats(cant this generation of gamers just get a pumpkin hat.. just plz.. i joined the yr after we stoped getting the awsome pumpkin hats .


its a tall order.. but i think they can get it done.. as long as they shove pvp into a dark corner

edit @ above poster(idr ur name ) ima guess adn say its either going to be the ah fa, maybe the jade brotherhood will get stronger. or the aflicted will gain a new hive mind

Pseudoforest's summary also included that John prefers pie to cake.

perhaps the emperor trying to bring luxons and kurzicks back under canthan rule?

We thought the zombie people were working on a diff game...seems they were just moved to GW:B stuff :P

On a side note...some of this sounds pretty awesome...im really looking forward to see what they have comming for heros....

Compare this to-do list with a list of things they've actually finished in the past year.

3 necroes, 2 rits, orders ele, and a koss or gwen. for me(:


If it happens. lol.

Anet did the game a favor by adding a bit harder content. Dealing with the terribad henchman is fine, but monsters/foes will need major buffing with AI and in all other aspects.

As long as they aren't over powered.

Weeeee! However, only just dreams.

Lol. This is the kind of quality care we pay for I guess. As in nada.

More support for festivals is a big plus, since those are the only times when I'm really interested in playing when I open the game.

OH MY GOD 7 HEROES
My eyes are watery from joy. Just think of the possibilities. This will bring my gw interest back again.
Also means the game is officially dead. GG optimists.

And KJ, you posted the wrong link, that one goes to a thread about potions on gw2g.

7 heroes... It's essentially an autopilot. You just follow the mobs and your heroes do the stuff. Even with 3 of them game is too easy.
