Then, ANet releases a roadmap and people complain and kitten about it. No wonder ANet doesn't communicate more frequently. People want a roadmap because they'd like to know what exciting new stuff they get to look forward to, not because they need to be reminded when's Halloween. When the roadmap only confirms there's nothing coming for the rest of the year the negative reactions should surprise no one. The solution isn't that Anet should throw a tantrum and talk to us even less. Instead me and many others would like a roadmap with fresh content in it. An expansion released this year yet it almost feels like maintenance mode. They are struggling to hit the bare minimum and people can tell. 5 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Hayes.6890 Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Nothing is stopping you folks from playing other games and coming back when something you care about happens 🤷♂️ I mean, a roadmap can help you with exactly that 🤣 5 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it is made with common sense of course. I remember then saying once they will add like a new fractal every 3 months and a new raid every 6 months (along all the other content). Lets be honest, no1 is asking for that at this point. But that in the last 4 years we had just 1 new fractal, so just use common sense (and pvp or wvw havent got any better), so some1 might ask what their staff is doing or why they dont hire more ppl seeing that incomes have increase. The roadmaps are great, but just for the Steam release LWS1, and new player experience... those were long announced. And we need more meat over the game in general and whats the direction they gonna take. If they did even a stream talking about this i would be satisfied. PD: Would have been cool to have all this conversations in the "10th birthday stream" that didnt happen.

People patiently waited for EoD after IBS ending... then again waited for steam and the "new player experience" (not even reworking LFG the most crucial part). And here we are. WvW 2 years in beta to just change matchmaking, interface and some rewards. PvP abandonned. Raids abandonned. Fractals abandonned. Dungeons abandonned. Guilds and guild missions abandonned. Some communication about the future of the game, for example LWS6 and things we can expect of content aside of story would be nice. They are winning more money than in the past 4 years thanks to us, and we are just getting cheap updates (or directly recycled). Yeah it doesnt feel appealing after all the patience the community has had. Edited October 17, 2022 by Izzy.2951 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Izzy.2951 Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 (edited) And its even more sad cos soon we will start hearing ppl calling for world 3 Super Adventure Box, a thing that would cost tons of development to do it just to enjoy it 2 weeks a year, and being a meme content. Dark times ahead for Gw2, it will start showing in their revenues slowly aswell as activity in the gw2 reddit and social media. PD: Even for the steam release they did some good things, but no steam frontpage, not asking steam for the free pop-up the day it launched, no promotions on the trailers (30-50k views 99% of veterans) and one of the trailer was really bad, neither big streamers joining. And no LFG rework that is still a mess and is the main tool to socialize and do stuff in an MMO. Edited October 17, 2022 by Izzy.2951 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only thing lfg need is consolidation of dungeon section so its like the raid section you have to type what dungeon you want to do in the lfg message but in turn you can see them all in the same tab. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, appart from merging the dungeon tabs. You need to remove like 70% of the tabs and if posible improve interface. This has been said by @Stonemist.4680, when you are making a system you want it to be easy to navegate and use. You cant have +100 tabs with their respective dealys every time you click: 1) cos ppl will get tired and overwelm and dont use it, 2) cos it makes the LFG looks more empty that it should and 3) cos Gw2 is not even that populated to have a single tab for every little minimal thing that never gets used and ur waiting for nothing. This LFG makes it imposible to see whats hapening in Tyria at any given time. Even if ur forming something its a pain cos there are like 80% unecesary tabs making it imposible for people to find. Solution: Click on the Path of Fire tab and see all the groups forming in path of fire (without sub -tabs for every map), and behind the group its shown what map they currently are. That alone will remove like 50%. Second in the general section mix the Squad and World boss since they are used for the same. And like this i belive even more changes could be done Edited October 17, 2022 by Izzy.2951 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Hayes.6890 Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 The game has lots to do 🤷♂️ This slow down is great for players to catch up. Those of us that have done everything let's be honest.... no game company can keep up with us anyway. That's why I play old school NES between releases 😀 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Releasing "season 6" early would only mean a longer drought later, and releasing more episodes only pushes back the next expansion. ArenaNet doesn't have the resources to work on season 6, expansion 4 and another game at the same time - remember, they had previously cut expansions before NCSoft intervened. Well that has changed since gw2 turned out to be their cash cow and they said as much in the investor meeting. So hopefully they will be hiring even more than they already have.
