Bill and I met with ArenaNet at E3 to get a first look at Guild Wars 2’s Living Story Season 2 content, and have been keeping our mouths shut about it for a solid month. It hasn’t been easy, primarily because of the intriguing nature of what we were shown. Also, we’re chatterboxes.

more skills, fix traits, fix rangers, or add a particle slider yet? I thought this was the feature patch... Not just LS

Try to be excellent to everyone you meet. You never know what someone else has seen or endured.

Arghhh can not wait for them to unlock the patch... Come on ANet: patch is ready, let us play the new content during our day off (Canada day)
(I know I know, they usually unlock the patch during their afternoon time, so after 12:00 p.m. PDT... And btw, to my knowledge, ANet is the only publisher that pushes patches without requiring a downtime. Quite an amazing feat in itself).
fix rangers ... looool , is there any game where rangers doesnt think that their pets suck and class is broken ? ... Problem is somwhere else and no developer can fix that :P
If I hit F2 for my aoe regen/heal when my Wolf is on passive, I don't expect it to run upto the boss and stand in its aoe. I could hit passive again but I shouldn't have to. Then again Shortbow Theif less like a snore than my Ranger with his Longbow/Shortbow.
Daoc :P , i loved my pet there , kill/cc it or u wont be able to cast anything !
Which the community loved. Especially the trait re-vamp. 28 pages, almost 53,000 views and over 1.3K posts of feedback. ZERO comments from Chris Whiteside.
World of Warcraft. Followed by the Rift, but miles ahead of Wow's.
I played all those games, and in all those games rangers/hunters were supposedly by players who played them most gimped class ...
What a disappointment so far. The new zone could've been interesting, but they added the Aspect jumping mechanics from the Sanctum zone, which are required to progress. I never liked those things.
So you have to do jumping puzzles to finish the story? They always put crap in to annoy you.
Not only that, but you need to use those aspect skills in the new zone, and in the stories. I really dislike using secodary mechanics in a fight that removes my main weapon skills.
I always worry when I read stuff like this:
"Apparently, the ArenaNet team has been working with people in other media industries to understand how to better make superstory arcs, interrelated Seasons, appealing characters, and other features that are common to good storytelling in television, films, and other forms of entertainment."
It boils down to good writing doesn't it? That part read like ArenaNet is looking to find out how to make things appealing through metrics and industry standards. "Well typically males from the age group of 18-30 prefer male protaganists... blah blah blah". I dunno man.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
thanks. I thought they had promised to add more weapons by the end of 2013 from that article you wrote back in Oct(?). I guess they aren't really going to add new weapons or utilities or builds. Or change max dos only for fractals... Or the stacking crap. Or the option to reduce particle effects.time to hang up my hat on gw2 and stop even looking to see if they are going to fix stuff. Clearly not.
@talondiel. Yeah, I am aware of that post! They didn't post in the 26 page ranger cdi either until they said "well, the fix can't require to much effort to fix".
lol. Keep up that two week "content" cycle and forget the game play that needs fixing, then they will fire O'Brien and Jon and get some that will give the game focus... Maybe.
#fixed skillfact guildwars2 is pathetic at fixing game play.

pretty much. the story was trying way too hard to be 'epic' in place of interesting storylines/characters. sounds like they're going deeper in the completely wrong direction.
another boring addition... i doubt this game will have anything for hardcore gamers. but if you love the farming and doing repeatable stuff for silly titles/rewards i guess this will suit you perfectly.
on the side note, archeage will probably attract more hardcore gamers thats looking the real seiging/pvp

Lawl so hardcore, so op, i don't even .....
No but seriously...what was it that annoyed you in the "new" trait system? xD That you don't need a class master to swap traits on the fly? I seriously see NO drawbacks with the "new" way traits are being done, ESPECIALLY if you are old player that has lvl 80 toon. Nah you are just a silly troll.
There is shitton of new weapons. Not new tiers though and not new weapon types, but certainly there have been new weapons and armors (also known as skins). The even added a new stat combo -> nomad. Aaand SweetFX takes care of the particles for you, and not only. It generally makes the game prettier without hitting your FPS.
Troll spotted.
