  1. I don't think you would be forced to play with groups, in most cases. It's possible, but the ones I have seen thus far haven't required groups.
  2. Nope, it didn't work. Unchecking the box removes the entry "with the next reset", which means tomorrow. I believe they added this text today. I don't remember it from yesterday. It's in red letters.
  3. OK. Well, I just sell those when I get them. I have too many of those as well.
  4. It's not at all clear that you will be able to reset the 1/2/3 game mode checkboxes. That's what I was referring to.
  5. No, she was dismissed while she was on vacation. I conversed with her about it, and it wasn't voluntary. She was quite sad. THIS is their OFFICIAL forum. THIS is the place where they need to respond. The other places are just window dressing.
  6. Do your homework. I haven't posted for months. I'm just HOPING that they changed their mindset. The odds are extremely low, but I have to hope. I loved this game (until yesterday). Can't I at least HOPE that they'll listen?
  7. I don't need or want build storage or templates. I have 27 characters, all fully equipped with ascended armor, so ascended gear is useless. Upgrade extractors would be worth it, for maybe 4-5 times. Laurels and mystic clovers, I already have far too many of them. I don't know what you mean by MCs. The gold bonus was reduced, so obviously no help there. I have too many vision crystals already. And I don't need any more emotes. Care to try again, or perhaps just admit that I was right on target?
  8. I believe that's correct, but there's no way to know for sure until reset. Since I couldn't do ANY of the dailies today, I'm not even sure I'm going to try.
  9. While true, they COULD respond. But that's not their style. They NEVER listen to their customers. Not the real ones. They only listen to customers who are extremely vocal (and almost always wrong). They listened to those squeaky wheels prior to HoT, and it almost destroyed the game. They used to have a player liaison on staff. They got rid of her after 18 years with the company. Why? There could have been only one reason: they were bound and determined to never listen to customers, so why pay someone to interface with them? This is just the culmination of that terrible line of thinking on their part.
  10. If they were going to fix anything, they would have replied by now.
  11. I'm signing off for the night. This is just too depressing to think about for this long.
  12. There are two pieces to it. The first is the checkboxes. THAT is what wasn't explained well. You weren't told that if you checked a box, there would be required items in the list from that playing area. Other people weren't so lucky, and left a game mode checked that they didn't like. They were then forced to do tasks in all three game modes. Now the second part is after one chooses the checkboxes and continues. Now one is presented with two (in my case, PvE and WvW) lists, and there are no options. All must be done to complete the dailies. THIS is the part I found obnoxious: I couldn't pick from a list like we could before. We used to have twelve choices, and had to complete three of the twelve. I could simply avoid the unpleasant ones. Now we can't. We've reverted back five years to when you had to complete a set list every day. Everybody (pretty much without exception) cheered when that was replaced by the system that was in force until today. Now we're back to that old garbage.
  13. They must have changed it. Like I said, I never willingly chose it. It's been years since I attained it. Perhaps now I know why (getting one kill by accident would happen occasionally; getting three would be impossible for me). That text explains nothing, exactly as I said. I happened to choose correctly, but it was only because I despise PvP and knew I would never darken the door of that realm. But others didn't know, and were then forced into all three game modes. Tell me how that text explains that little detail.
  14. Thanks, but I read that page a long time ago. I couldn't figure it out. I might try going to Seitung, but for a daily?
  15. And then I'll have even fewer choices. Including quests and renown hearts. Yuck. This is supposed to be an improvement. Not force us to do things we don't want to. I've got 10 mapping titles. I'm sick of renown hearts.
  16. "Choices" are the checkboxes. There was literally NOTHING telling you what they did. One had to guess.
  17. No. It was one. I used to get it by accident, occasionally, by doing the cheat method you describe. But I would NEVER willingly choose it unless all other options were worse because I hate playing against other players. This is supposed to be a COOPERATIVE game. I despise playing against other players. I'm way too old to be able to compete against teenagers with optimized builds.
  18. Well I wasn't as lucky as you. I have to kill three players and do three combo skills (which I haven't learned how to do). Since I'm not really capable of killing players, it's impossible for me to complete them.
  19. One of my daily options is to use three combo skills. I've never figured out how to do that. But, to progress the daily, I have to do it three times.
  20. It's much worse than that. One could not possibly know the ramifications of choosing any of the options (or not choosing them). The text included was totally useless for explaining just what was going to happen. But even though I happened to pick the options I thought I would need (I never play PvP), once one got to the actual list of dailies, it was not feasible to complete them. For example, in the old system, one player kill in WvW would trip the daily wire. Now it's three. I HATE playing against other players, and I would only choose that option if there were no other viable options (for me). But now I'm REQUIRED to do it, and I can't just kill one player; I have to kill THREE.
  21. Oh, I don't know. They lost 1/3 of the player base when HoT was released. Of course, this one has the makings of being worse, though. I've loved this game (and its predecessor) for nearly two decades. I've spent in the neighborhood of $5,000 on it over the years. I had a lot of fun. But now I have to find something else. So sad to have to say goodbye.
  22. Oh, Heart of Thorns was pretty bad, too. All that time-gating for no reason, and a horrendous mapping system that still hasn't been fixed. But I thought they learned their lesson with the next two expansions. This one shows I was foolish to think so.
  23. Try looking at the list of things available to non-owners of SotO. It's extremely limited, in both quantity and usefulness. Not exactly an incentive to get me to buy this expansion.
