ANET's policy on cheats, hackers, AFK farm bots etc is just to ignore all reports and let it carry on regardless.. its been this way for a long time now.. that's why you see swathes of AFK farmers on every map, thief hackers in WvW, under surface hacks etc etc.. they simply dont care about the state of the game, only the gem store sales matter. A certain hack site is having a field day on sales of their hacks these days. What was a great joke was when they updated the ToS EULA a few weeks back.. not worth the paper it was written on. They should of released that stuff on 1st April for greater effect though.

Well at least we got that straight.. not that it really means much with the sheer amount of bot farms all over every map these days and the plethora of, multi box AFK farmers ruining events.. the EULA seems pointless for much of its wording these days.

The tags are one thing and was always going to be the case, but being placed on alien servers to that of other members of your guild/alliance is just total garbage still and add to that now we have all manner of language issues to contend with - just a hot mess going nowhere fast and I too think WvW will see a decline rather than an uptick in new blood, its just a mess.

Game is pretty much unplayable right now so might as well log off for the week and go play BG3 instead 😞

Dont get me started on farming home instance.. I refuse to keep going back in and re-farming it 🙂

I've picked up my TP stuff multiple times now... ANET using a carrot to tempt me to keep taking my gold then they grab it back, roll me back and make to go again.... welcome to "guinea pig" day.... errm i mean patch day. Can't wait to see what bugs they have lined up for WvW Restructuring Beta on Friday

Not just meta's .. the game is crashing everywhere now.. cant load any characters anywhere - game just hangs and crashes to desktop

and so it begins with an unplayable event ... every attempt to run ATM it crashes as soon as any weapon skill is used.. testing at its finest !

Or "Just dont give a toss"

If you take a glob and put into inventory then right click it.. then choose "add to collection". Updates for all the collections for me. Same also for Crystaline dust and icy runestones, bloodstone shards and philosophers stones. The ones I cant get to work are the gifts of magic and energy

Now May 2023 and this bug is still there... only been like 6 years, suppose we shouldn't expect miracles though!! Bad, just terrabad!!

While that is certainly true for me as well.. Guild Wars has been a part of my gaming life for almost 20years now i guess, so to see it gone would be mean having to fill a big hole. That said though if there were no other plans to push forward as a studio then where would that leave GW2 anyways.. I think we can all agree that putting a thumb to the air and hoping for a kind wind to keep blowing for an ageing product to keep riding is going to fail at some point so like the studio, we kinda have to hope that these new ideas do yield a stream of revenue to keep them and us suitably occupied for the foreseeable future. As for a GW2 - - > GW3 expansion . I am pretty sure many of us thought there was nothing in the pipe then until we were all pleasantly suprised. I guess we just have to trust in fate 🙂

Was I dreaming it or was there a media drop just a few days back about a new PC/Mob game coming out from the studio using the Unreal Engine.. if so wouldn't that explain the need to recruit going forward.. plus I would be much more liken to the idea of them recruiting more than less and not need to have to shuffle large amounts of resources around internally unlike previously. GW2 is an ageing product, still very much alive and fun imo, but its ageing all the same and the business needs new revenue streams to move forward - so I like to think this is a positive sign they have other interests that need to be pursued - whether they become successful or even see the light of day is another thing entirely of course, but ya have to be in it to win it as they say.

Is this topic still being talked about.. it's not like it's a new thing. Players have being requesting ANET do something about this for an age now, but ANET seem to enjoy seeing most maps blighted with large groups of AFK/BOT farmers... so all we can do is report as many as you can target then hope one day ANET do decide enough is enough and give the poor fur flies and mosquitoes a break from the endless cycle of death.

Maybe this was one of those "fixes" to rid the game of those masses of farming bots on maps.. fingers crossed 🙂

Not using a third party program to launch, but Chromium defo has a certificate issue to be fixed. However the inability to use CAPS LOCK etc when typing into the password box is surely not an incompatibility issue but rather a Chromium implemented issue that defo needs fixing

After accepting Chromium in Norton I don't see get the certificate issue any longer but still have to keep clicking in/out of login password box to use CAPS LOCK otherwise it still sees it as a return and insta fails the login before even finishing the password.

Win 10.. and added Chromium to accept chromium .. cleaning cache and dumps now to see if that helps. Only work around I could do is to keep clicking out of the login box switch CAPS LOCK on/off then typing back in login box... what a ballsache

One BUG to rule them all, another bug after finding the bug, one more bug after fixing them all and in the login fail them....

Now since the update when you type your password into the launcher, as soon as you have to switch CAPS on/off it see it as a RETURN and insta fails your login. How the heck does this kind of stuff get through a quality pass ... this needs an immediate fix

Yep getting the same issues as others. I am running friends from another MMO through personal story at present as they were keen to consider GW2 as a new home for their game time, but seeing them get constant disconnects at the same story points and preventing them from progressing is turning them sour already. Even interacting with NPC's like the Guild Hall Notary is causing this and it's not influencing them an awful lot to now purchase expansions... bugs are something we expect in MMO's but progress blocking ones are just not acceptable after a week or two of sending reports in via ingame without so much as an auto reply to acknowledge someone is there! edit - They both have checked for up to date drivers, Win 10 updates and their internet doesn't drop.. this is a game issue and its happening constantly at the same points in story blocking progress.

Match making imo is still like it has been for years .. grossly deflating both for those being constantly outnumbered and stomped 24/7 and for those doing the stomping after an hour or two. It is ridiculous that guild mates cant run as parties no matter if they all ticked some box prior to a date deadline.. not everyone has/had that ability to do that and now find themselves at the mercy of the above deflating matchup system. WvW was by far one of my favourite gamemodes, but this "new way" just isn't cutting it for me - sure its beta, but the game still has to be functionally good and enjoyable to play with your guild mates - something that has missed by a country mile imo.

Except we all know most AFK farmers are using things like minions to do the work for them, the auto attack feature is not cancelled it is purely an eggtimer recast, just like turrets, just like ranger pets... the actual character does nothing but stand there for days, weeks, months with the eggtimer relog or switch out for good measure when DR begins to show an interest.

The bottom line is if you think its suspicious report it and let ANET decide.ANET have allowed this grey area gameploit to coexist for years now and to me they simply do not care to do anything about it.. so just keep refilling the inbox with botting reports and hope one day something does get looked at and an effort to discourage the practice is put in place.. until then, don't hold your breath more than is healthy for ya.

Let's split topics: buying the game and willing (not demanding) use mother tongue. What is it wrong to will to speak in mother tongue? Doesn't matter where. And ask an opportunity to do that.If you want speak in your native language and it doesn't matter where, you can speak through discord. This is easy and faster than typing in chat. And not need to ask opportunity. ИМХО, единственное что хочет Inoy - это популярности и известности в GW2, и плюшки от Arena.net, что видно по его видео. Поэтому он и затеял этот шум.Есть способ общаться на русском быстро и эффективно, но для этого ведь не надо подымать шум. А если не подымать шум, кто про тебя узнает? If you are against an exact person just say it them face to face.What to show how bad public person? Give us any proves.No need to shoot out about it. If you like to use Discord, please, do that and don't bother the rest people to make their requests. Where was that poster being rude... all I read @Ulysses.9345 calling out a vid poster for their use of obscenities in their vids.. and offering a suggestion to utilise Discord if you want to use mother tongue or Cyrillics in game, which has actually been mentioned several times already in this particular post.The poster has even highlighted (through experience as a programmer), that introducing Unicode into the game comes with possible issues and isn't as easy to do as many on here like to think. All this has to be weighed up by ANET as well as the cost to make it happen and support it after..I would hazard a guess they have already done their own homework on what effects Unicode support can do for growing the game as well as determining whether it would be cost effective to do so... unfortunately nothing comes freely in this world
