Seconded!

My gaming rig is a 2011 laptop. I've get terrific Internet though. If Stadia is an option, I'd be interested.

No you wont.. 7 years and still not a single legendary drop in open world PvE.. Not even a precursor.. I was about to say ditto, but I got one pre drop. So since beta I've seen one.

Let me second (or third or thousandth) the request for more to do/build in the home instance or player housing.I'd love to have a bookcase for all the scroll and book items. Once you put a thing in there it stops being a thing, and you can't take them out. So it's not a bank slot for the weapons and back items that happen to also be books. Perhaps you actually put it in there (Wow, putting a Binding of Ipos in there would be an expensive decoration!) or perhaps you just put a copy of the thing in there. And then some flower pots to display collected flowers perhaps like the ones around New Loamhurst in Lake Doric, but they stay planted. Or a flower display that uses the same mechanic as the book case (but that looks like a flower garden). I for one have a whole bank tab full of books and another full of flowers. Yes I know that's just me and my choice, but I like them. And for Anet it's a revenue stream to sell upgrades to the home instance. Since Grothmar Valley has a dedicated Ooze combat arena, how about (on some existing map) a dedicated race track with actual races you need to qualify for - think Indy 500. (The guild halls could use a little extra space for such a racetrack - maybe with a Scribe crafted waypoint for easy access - The Gilded Hollow certainly has multiple levels so the existing layout could easily support a racetrack up high) The main race does not require to all qualified race at exactly the same time, but like Lily of the Elon, during the main race times, only the qualified racers are allowed on the track. So during the month everyone gets to race with mini gamer competitive events and practice runs. During the final week of the months the top 100 (or 1,000?) race times get invited to participate in the main event race. They can race as many times as they want during that week with their best times being used for final ranking and then post the winners. No power ups, no debuffs. Just straight up speed and skill. Need to have rings to go through to force the track. Allow any mount. You need two tracks. One for ground based mounts complete with terrain race track and one for flying mounts. There should be a grandstand with row after row of actual seating. When it's not part of the main race you can have Mario Kart style comic races with power ups and debuffs and all those things that wreck a normal race experience.

The home instance in DR has several of these clones on the same walk cycle and they frequently are clipping into each other. Can they at least have different color dresses? Also, why not make the NPCs wear "town clothes" and make the existing clothes they have also available as "town clothes" (NPCs have some clothing that is unique and not avialable to players). And yes, it's OK to racially lock them so that you don't have to make that blue Human dress fit on a Charr.

If in WvW all mounts are essentially the as-is Warclaw, but you get the appearance and animations of the other mounts you'd get the Fashion Wars satisfaction (I'm not being sarcastic or ironic here) without changing the balance in any way. Although no flying allowed, that'd change the game a huge amount - I'm not against it, but it would be so different that all the balance elements and perhaps even the maps would have to change.

Says the guy with the Deadeye avatar. I tell ya, they have earned the hate in WvW. Near perma stealth for one.

It would also be play mode sensitive. For instance in WvW necros would smell like cheese. So would rangers for that matter and I can't say in polite company what thief would smell like (but you don't want it on your shoe!). When VR gets common and different companies are competing for your VR dollars, smell may be one of the things that gets added. So in addition to a soundscape (music, ambient noises, etc...) there would be a smell-scape. I bet that as Tequatl nears that the smell of death and decay would become overpowering.

Imagine a "chair" Novelty, with a bonfire where players can also sit with you! Like a "Minicamp" thing! That would be awsome! I'd love a campfire surrounded by logs (chairs). And others can sit on it once deployed! I can see several versions of this. A campfire for out and about, or a table with chairs around it for in town. Or a pile of rocks. all with some central thing to sit around. It could either be 3 or 4 different deployable toys or just one that changers skins to match your surroundings.

OK, but then a truly VIP area where it's instanced, no other players that are not part of your party, and customizable. Or you know, a home instance which already has all the rest of that.... And why would they need to, when the vip area serves the exact same purpose? It would make the passes completely undesirable to buy. So no, it wont ever happen.Why would it make the other undesirable to buy? They already have more than one area so multiple areas are not dissuading them from adding more. I bet there are a lot of people that would love an area with no other players around. No annoying animations. Not having to suppress map chat when infants start talking politics. No sounds from people activating random skills. You know, private...

I'd call it a design bug.It's working as intended but it's a poor way to do it. I'd love to have the gardener selling the seeds instead of having to grind for them. And if adding the soil enhancer (to the soil, not the seed) would last at least a week...

What then do you call the solo player with a combination of unbeatable build and very good play style that waits for solo roamers and then jumps out from hiding and kills them. I thought that was a ganker? I see this in EBG a lot where there will be a guy hiding in the path from the garrison (keep.... whatever) to wherever the action is and sets up to repeatedly snare those individuals taking the fastest route back to eh action after they've been killed. Also I thought that was the reason why ganker rhymes with w****r - because they are frustrating.

When Mirage entered play it was the first time I ever was able to survive in a 1v1 fight in WvW. Prior to that my Mesmer was relegated to either back line support (using only the longest range Greatsword skill with little to no AoE for bag tagging) in a zerg or guard duty and siege ticking at a structure. Also the clones, illusions, and whatnot never seem to fool anyone as to the location of the actual avatar. It's obvious why, they do not move like a real player. Maybe they should be literal mirror images and make the same moves as the player while facing the opponent so you can't just tell them apart. And on creation the called target marker gets lost.

That 9 level deep quote tho. I love the box shading! Fixing the multi-harvest on re-entering the instance? Yes, that was a good fix - no other plant gets a re-harvest.Removing the ability of letting others harvest. Bad idea. It wasn't a bug fix, it was a feature change. Calling it a bug fix is disingenuous. Call it what is was, a nerf. If randos with 10+ free to play accounts harvesting nodes to crash the market is a problem, then fix the randos with 10+ accounts, don't punish the rest of use because you can't solve the actual problem.

That Quaggan mount skin tho...... (and this was made before mounts at all, right?) Actual merch, not in game avatar clothes!!!!

The thief hiding skills need a scaling cooldown. So every time you use the skill within seconds of having just used it, the cooldown gets longer. The perma invisibility that thieves have is presently terrible for the rest of the world.

Given how weak siege is against players in general I think we need more of it and more powerful. I'm pretty sure if a weapon can blast a hole in a stone wall that it can do far far more damage to a meatbag. I do see potentials for abuse, but they might be resolved perhaps by requiring cannons to only be placeable on hardpoints? So that means on walls or floors in structures, but not on grassland outside as you are seiging into a building. But in general siege ought to do far more DPS than character skills.

At least two of those bugs were clearly server side. Why did they have to touch sooooooo many data files. And also the rendering engine (makes sense for the position related one) Also, I agree. That was not a bug., it was a feature change. And a poor one at that. I do love having the third plot and the Cooking Station in my home though. Those rock!

I got my second in game mail which this time DID have the attachments. Thanks for fixing it ANet!!

Well, I'm not terribly disappointed that I missed it, given that it's just a t-shirt and shorts. But that is not a good way to give stuff away. It's like the old model on a radio station, except there it's the main content talking head that says "Be the fifth caller to win XYZ" - in this format if you;re actually watching the stream you don't see the chat

Ditto. Also, was watching the livestream, we're there supposed to be some giveaway codes for some ascended outfit? (although someone posted the appearance link to me later and it's just the same outfit with a blue t-shirt) They did on Twitch.I was watching Twitch, where was it? If it was in chat, that was flowing by sooooooo fast I couldn't read any of it

OK, but then a truly VIP area where it's instanced, no other players that are not part of your party, and customizable. Or you know, a home instance which already has all the rest of that.... I just want an area that has no other players (or at the very least controlled player access). An option to turn off other all player interaction would be a reasonable substitute.

In that vein I'd like tactivators to show a list of who used them with a built in option to report them or at least (for the guild that put it up) to block a named player form using their tactics for the rest of the week. And accounts/IP addresses that repeatedly show up on the report list get banned. It's one thing to lose a fortress because you were beaten tactically or in numbers, but when some team has to cheat to beat. Nope.

What is this sorcery? :open_mouth: Apparently the blue men “are a model that the devs use as a base scale to know the size of the environment and other models.” As for why they are still there I think some things like this are left in as rewards for players that manage to escape form the box. I'm a software developer myself and usually the clever things that you do in code are totally hidden form the users, but in a visual medium like a game (or a DVD menu) a few sweet little Easter Eggs are nice.
