Dungeons have been mentioned before, so I'll just leave this request at: I want indoor, mapless, gloomy and scary places to explore... I spent 4 hours in the catacombs and I'm sure there are places in there I've not yet seen... it's an awesome place.

Random instances: I would like to see several instances introduced that have random spawns (not creature type, that would make no sense, but just location) and also random terrain (again, not skin since it would have to fit with the general area, but random paths, passes, buildings, chests, etc)

BC, Canada.. how aboot that eh?

i would love to have more random places to explore, i think it would be great to be able to go to the catacombs in post-searing... but all these things are blocking the way... with luck some day they will add them, maybe in the expantion pack

Personally, I always thought UW should have an entire map similar to the surface world of Tyria....this would significantly expand the explorable world and allow for a lot of room for expansion. Of course, I'm not sure how the Chapter 2 map is going to work (i.e. will your character move on to a new world similar to the pre-searing to searing transition, where you can't go back??)

You spent 4 hours in the catacombs??

you must have cleared it and been walking round in circles. do you know how small it really is?

I'm just wondering, as i spent half an hour in there and started recognising places i had already visited and seeming not to have any enemies to kill. Then i got myself a map online which confirmed my thoughts. This is not so much a bash at you, but an idea for arena net. I loved the catacombs, but places like it need to be bigger and more frequent

The reason it feel large is because you cannot see the mini-map.

Well, there are entrances in Wizard's Folly, Ashford Abbey and Green Hills, so it's not really a tiny place... 4 hours is a bit much tho


What I'd really like is to be able to get back in there in post-searing
