The New Expansion

If they were to introduce new professions, they would need to add at least one more character slot. What of the people who have 4 characters and don't want to delete them because they put all the hard work in just to try a new profession out?

I wish I could make more characters now. </whine>

Really though.. I want to play a mesmer sooooooo bad I can't wait until the expansion!

Even the summer update, I am really excited for that as well.

I like the idea of new classes and races, but I think they would have to be relevant to the oncoming story line. A feature I would LOVE to see is a global auction system like in FFXI, so I dont have to see people spamming in capitals about their amazing new sword "WIT FIOR OMG OMG".

Also Mumblyfish said:

"Maybe even add a bit of storyline, good script, and nice voice acting. Aye, I'd gladly fork out some cash for an expansion pack that glossed over/set fire to the existing missions and script."

I don't know if you've played any other MMOs but Guildwars by far has one of the best ways of implementing the story, through the missions. Involving you personally and using your character in cutscenes is lightyears ahead of any other MMOs I've played. Usually its "there is a cliche doom coming to the land of X and it is up to brave adventurers like you to stop it" now go out and level grind. Hell even HAVING half decent cutscenes is a leap forward.

Drakron, ive finnished the game with 3 characters. And i would do i with another one. Its not grind, its entertainment, playing a game. I only play about 2 hours every other day, maybe 4 on the weekend. Its my entertainment.

made numerous characters ... finished the game with a couple have over 75% of all skills unlocked ... and lovin every minute of it. A persons own perspective can do wonders on things. I just happen to be one that enjoys all aspects of gameplay ... and dont bounce from game to game to game to game within the year/month. still lovin it ... and havin alotta fun meeting some interesting people. positive outlook ... try it!

Amen, I played UT2k4 for 300 + hours and I feel like I still have things to learn about that game. I like latching onto games like GW that have a lot of depth and really exploring them. To me, this is great entertainment

Hrmmm... what about special skills (elite or not) that are only for certain class combos? Then your Warrior/Monk could have his Iron Palm Attack of Dhoom(tm) but not as a regular attack...

-Your character can swim in some places.
-You can have a bigger variety of pets? Like a pet dragon
-You can summon an animal or your pet and you can ride it (I saw this in WoW)
-The characters mouths actully move when they talk
-Day/night
-The weather perhaps? When your character moves about its hair, armor watever moves realisticly
-Defenitly more professions and more spells
-You can design your char's clothes
-More hairstyles, faces more skintones
-Maybe some blood!
-More levels!!!
-More emotes
-Your char can go into pubs, inns etc.
-A bigger map! with new areas.
-More detailed missions, quests etc.

Hmmm, I better share a bit here:

There is no announced release date for Chapter 2. I will bet you a million chocolate chip cookies it will not be 1 February 2006.

There is no announced price for Chapter 2. We'll definitely let you know when that time is upon us, in case you want to preorder from a retailer.

The Summer Update: Sorrow's Furnace isn't offering the laundry list of new content that someone posted. That's Chapter 2, an entirely different item! The Summer Update will offer two large new explorable areas with the Stone Summit Dwarves as a primary inhabitant. It'll have a lot of new quests, new story bits, and more. Any talk about new professions, new races, new regions, new character slots, etc., would be part of a discussion or speculation about the next chapter.

Hope that helps!

i personally would love to see new races.. not sure about professions but races would be a nice way to change things up. doing PvP as one species vs another would be fun as hell. Charr vs. Tengu, Human vs. Grawl, Dwarf vs. ..whatever else they could come up with..

I just hope if they do implement races, centaurs are not one of them (that would just be ridiculous).

oh, and they BETTER freaking include new character slots.

wow you got gaile gray in this thread...kick ass

Like in "Severance, blade of darkness"?
You could hack off enemies limbs and use those as weapons too.

But I think the gore (is there any) contained in GW is already enough.

But here's a marketing idea: sell gore levels.
The higher the gore level, the more you have to pay for it.

On 2nd thought, it's not that great an idea, is it?

I don't know.

dont think thatd go over well.

I think the game is too fantasy based and whimsical to need blood.

Its just not a gorey game, the graphics more than replace the need for blood

In reading all this stuff i havent notice but one person complain about the lvles, I mean its not a bad thing that you can only lvl to level 20 and its not hard like it was in diablo 2 where you had to do millions of cow/baal runs before you got where you needed to go to. I do think level restrictions need to be put in certain places to prevent the running through the game so it forces people to play it and lvl and no just go get all the best stuff and come back when it suits them. . . . im tired of working through the game only to see someone whos lvl 2 at droknars after i did all those quests for ascention. I like how the skills work out i really do and i agree with the fact you should have ones that you can only get from your combined skill class.Like mabey add it so when you find the monster with the skill you want it goes to a CS and they talk crap and then you fight him one on one to get the skill. As for the character classes i would like to see new classes for one reason and one reason only. So that you can make a character that can have all the classes together a little of everything like a assasin type would be a little warrior and a little ranger but then you could combine that with someone like a mezmer where they have to trip a trap and get hit with something like backfire or health degen instead of damage and a limp. But this all may just be me. But i think it would be cool. The aution house btw I love and how about more room for gold and a expanded inventory as well as some intrest from day to day as a reward for keeping gold. It might infulence people to spend a little more. Also what they used to do in ultima( i dont know if they do it anymore) but if you play for a year you get a year reward or two year reward. But combine that with the age system so you might get it bassed on hours you play. Past that i cant think of anything else someone else hasnt already worded perfectly.

Well my opinion about this

-More storage space / Guild Storage so u can deposit stuff/gold for ur guild
-Merchant/Storage in Hall
-Training Place in Guild Hall to practice with ppl from ur guild, testing builds or just having fun
-More Weapons like Polearms, Spears, etc
-Shield Upgrades
-NIGHT/DAY/WEATHER (damn it would be great )
-More skins or way to customize it (like already suggested) i wish my ele has long hair and i want real undies for Warrior/Monk babe ^^
-New emotes and why not, a way to design some custom ones
-Friend List editing options (sometimes i got IGNs in list and i dont remember who it is, adding a note/name to ign d help i think)
-New sound effects in battle, especially melee attacks, they suck
-Lvl requirement for stuff or at least armors


what do u think?

But i m against the idea of new races and classes.. additional classes d bring a lot of unbalance in game
But we definitely need more char slots ^^

Weather is already included, more or less. There's snow, sunshine and even rain.

I don't know about that one. Designing your own emotes, hm.
Some days back I teamed with a guy who seemed to be a good player and made an overall nice impression to me.

At one point, while we were waiting for the team to get complete he said:
There should be a Sieg-Heil emote.
"You've gotta be kidding me." was my reply and he just said "Why not, would be fun"

I don't know if the guy/gal knew what s/he was talking about. Didn't seem to have a racist attitude, but you never know. These people are everywhere.

So my point is: Self designed emotes would be rather complex to be implemented and they would definately be abused.

You already have emote-abuse in GW.

in that case, an addition of alternative moves cauz, for example, all Male Warrior have the exaclty same /dance emote^^ why not a /dance2 /dance3 etc

Details of course, but funny ones

I would like to see more classes.proffesions everything unlocked for pvp but not for pve and for their to be jobs cause that would be pretty cool having your own business

Would love to have the ability to go inside every now and then, lol. There's a certain atmosphere about going inside Inns, houses, temples, etc., that I loved in another RPG and would love to see more interiors in Guild Wars.
