What would you like to see for 2016?

Roll back Spell Breaker and Holy Wrath to their previous functionality. Even just rolling back Spell Breaker would be enough, but both of them would be ideal. 600/smite was a really fun way to play.

I wish they revitalize the game a bit by assigning a small dedicated team for updates and content. Doesn't matter if they're slow to release new stuff, I just don't want GW1 to stagnate and die.
Also, we should somehow get active GW1 players to get together and organize a way to encourage gw2 players to migrate back to GW1, I'm hoping that'll get A.Net's attention.
I miss the good old times!

When it comes to a small dev team.GW devs have probably have left and Gw2 don't a lot about GW.

and i'd love to sightsee the areas, so i can see every corner without having to protect npc's or such
but yeah, carto is annoying, which they fixed in cantha and elona, so why not proph?

It's because titles weren't added until Factions. When they designed Prophecies they had no reason to be concerned about how hard mission areas were to map. It would be nice if they standardised various elements across the campaigns.
Personal gripe: weapon spells overriding the appearance of your weapon. If I'm going to spend a not insignificant amount of time deciding upon and acquiring the exact weapon I want I don't want it to be replaced with some ugly hunk of bone. Went through the effort of getting a set of Balthazar weapons for my Rit only to realise I'm not going to actually see her using them.

I would like to see the last super nerf that would make all current meta builds unavaible and ppl would totally need to think new ways to do stuff
Good example, Remove 2nd Profession!!!

yea marty, but i think it'd be nice if they gave proph exploreable missions when they were still active at GW
now it'd be nice, but such a small chance, that i gave up on it
i dont say i'm 100% sure they wont, but all i can do is suggest
and in this topic i answered the question what i'd like to see this year, not what i expect them to do with GW
if they'd actively listen again, i'd suggest it again right away
as for weapon spells, why not let em change nothing (maybe an aura around them), but give us a new set of weapons, which are the skins of weapon spelled weapons?

I assume the last person with even a remote clue about GW1's source code (i.e. someone who could grant any of these wishes) has long left the company.

or they are 'working on gw2 and have no time for gw1'
either way...this is just a list of stuff we wish for (kind of like a list you make for santa claus at xmas).
so I guess we could wish that someone with a clue is still working on gw.....(and yes, perhaps I do believe in santa claus).

The shop prices are just insane so it would be nice if they can lower it even for just a little bit. :/

I would like either:
A) The devs address the botting and synching or
B) Cease trading GW1 products altogether.
It's a disgrace to sell products which cannot be used as intended.

If an unsuspecting purchaser decided to buy the PvP pack, what can they reasonably do with their purchase? It's deliberate sale of goods not fit for purpose. That's called fraud where I live. Then said purchaser would have to agree to the EULA which isn't even slightly upheld by those who wrote it.

He actually was banning some people simply because they owned more than one account cause he couldn't understand how anyone would buy more than one account unless they were up to no good. I don't know how all this worked. I assume he caught people having two accounts on at once during a "sweep" and didn't understand that many people have "storage accounts" and swap stuff between those accounts and the more active ones. Because, again, he NEVER played the freaking game ever.
Guy was an idiot and he made a total mess of things. Long time innocent players were banned collectively with the guilty. People were up in arms. Way to treat your customers ... not.
So given the thousands of bans they collective had to re-instate most though some innocent fell through the cracks and still remained banned and many (most) guilty got back on. Complete, total frak-up. Hope he got fired for that mess.
Vizi
Reminder : Saying on the biggest Gw forum in public that there are more and more bots and that you think they won't ban anyone will not lower the amount of bots, on the contrary people will think that "everybody does it", "there is no risk" so they will also give it a try without thinking of the real risks like scams, hacking, or ban for using such programs from random guys.
Also, I was heard of a few bans lately (last week) for botting, but people are usually not proud of being banned (as botting is one of the only reason you could be banned for nowadays) and that's why we don't hear about it so much.

it was funny seeing banwave of bots (not fun that innocent people got caught too), and HzH and cavalon had wayyyy less faction
i hope they'll get something against bots, or just actively ban them
warning people: i dont want nice people tio be banned, but dont use bots, thats against the EULA, and will get you banned one day, if they would even still remember to check GW1
but yea, was fun seeing the nr1 facgtion based cities having way less than 20 million all the time
if only they'd find a way to get the bots disabled..... and not multilaunch and other stuff (even texmod) that doesnt do bad

I would love to see the GW2 servers crashing and burning and deleting all player's saved data as well as all backups and updates. Essentially, nothing should be left of the GW2 and it should be impossible to restore.
This way GW1 can once more get the attention it deserves as it still is the best game by far.

except that GW2 saved anet
and i'd never wish something like that, to delete someone else's fun like that
even if it'd happen, anet woudlnt be able to do much in GW, as they arent the same anet who listened to everyone, instead of the mainstream whiners with their "nerf everything and make the game way harder, cuz i completed the game already"
i dont like GW2, but without it, GW would suffer too

Other than that, nothing to complain about really, since GW2 is the main focus for ANet, can't expect much.

i know!! lets advertise GW1 more, so they get enough money from GW1, so they wont have a choice but to look back at GW1
at 1 point GW2 wont be getting as much as it gets now, then if GW1 is almost as good to them, they may change their mind
....... yeah, its a dream, but not impossible

What Gadd said - which is one of the reasons why GW1 was down most of the launch weekend for GW2. What a fiasco.
Regardless, at this point in time, the more Anet leaves GW1 in running in peace, that's the best we can hope for. Does anyone here really want the current team doing anything with GW1?
I know I don't.
Nightfall was pretty much the swan song for the original team before they changed personnel and changed direction towards what eventually produced GW2. From what I understand, most of the dev team knows little to nothing about our game save from a few core people who still do the fix or maintenance to it.
Ultimately, the best scenario would be for Anet to make it possible to download our character information and play the game off-lline permanently. That's my ultimate dream. Hopefully, one day, there will be an MMO dev that does exactly that and changes the face of the genre going forward.

I had no issues with gw when gw2 launched...not sure which servers you were playing on back then....
and yes, the current teams over on gw2 know very little about this game other than its name and that is has some relevance to their own precious game.

Perfect would be for them to release the source code and allow for private servers with modded code. This is probably not going to ever happen because some of the code is shared with Guild Wars 2, but as I see it, this is the only thing that could redeem the greatest video game I ever played.
BJWyler
Running private servers has always been another one of those oft requested dreams of MMO players. After all, many games with an on-line component allow for some type of similar thing as I have seen.
However, in my experience, the lack of such an option has always boiled down to "legalities." Now what those legalities are have never been mentioned so far as I have seen. But this very thing was brought up when Vanguard was shutting down.
Ultimately, I think it's just a matter of protecting the IP. No company wants to give out access to their IP where they would have no control over it, even if they many never use it ever again. Sort of like the kid who takes his ball home in a huff after some other kid on the playground makes him mad. From a business standpoint it is understandable, but nonetheless extremely disappointing to those who have enjoyed the game built under that IP.

Never gonna happen. Logins and passwords. With the current security craziness there is no way any private individual will obtain any personal data from company servers. If Anet did a single player game client which would be able somehow to extract your data from the server that might work but also that would require development so not gonna happen. We are at the mercy of them keeping the servers up....
