Pifil.5193 Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 (edited) So no road map for "a few weeks". So late February then? Seems like they've ran out of "easy" content to rerun and nothing new is close to ready. Edited January 26, 2023 by Pifil.5193 3 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

World boss and fractal could throw in meta event, dungeon or even raid wing now if they want. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randulf.7614 Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 Rush events would be good. Fractal or boss, although I’m prob more up for boss at the moment. They we’re designed for exactly this moment and for some reason they won’t use them. Come on, boss rush us Anet. BOSS RUSH! 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'd rather have them rework the agony resistance system so that it is less a blocking point (for new players that have the skills) before 🙂 As for meta event rush, that would indeed be a nice idea to incentivize players to command squads Edited January 27, 2023 by Colin.4568 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotTooFoolish.7412 Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Fractal Rush would be amazing. I'd prefer that over Meta Event Rush tbh. Agony resistance is weird, true. I know ppl who are literally throwing +1s at random friends. In case they could use it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luthan.5236 Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 At least now an announcement - for WvW though. (Unexpectedly ... there are a lot of deeper changes hinted at for the future.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bast.7253 Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 All these people mentioning rush events and I’m still wondering why these aren’t automated on a schedule like festivals. It’s always been a bit strange to me that they selectively turn them on in between certain patch cycles when it could just be a consistent weekly event rotating. World boss/meta events/fractals/raids rewarding bonus shards/strikes, etc. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can get the fractals one generating gold so being less used, but surely people playing takes precedence. It’s not even a case of burn out on them. They just aren’t run despite being specifically designed to be able turn on between content drops.

But considering the fact that you do still need those terminals to equip mods to you jade bot, it is a positive that they're doing this. Currently there are 2 places outside of Cantha where you can have access to a terminal, namely in your guild hall and the Thousand Seas Pavillion. So you either need to be in a guild (that has it) or you need to pay gems for a pass. This update will at least make this more accessible. Again, I'd prefer they take it out entirely and let you upgrade it like the rest of your gear, but ok. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doggie.3184 Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 (edited) Mmmmm, I'm very excited to see an entire year's worth of feedback and bug reports to result in another single line of text for Specter balance patch. But maybe they'll surprise us and give us tooltip updates and a few nerfs on things no one uses.

Vayne.8563 Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 On 1/23/2023 at 7:28 AM, IndigoSundown.5419 said: It's highly likely that they had plans for Q1 '23 long before the holidays. It's also possible for them to have written a roadmap for dissemination well before the holiday as well. Seems they didn't. Do holidays impact schedules? Absolutely. Do they make it impossible to inform customers about plans for the coming quarter at the start of the quarter? Well, other companies manage it. If they're so short-handed that a blog is above the pale and would have cost someone a holiday day, well, that's not a good sign. If they don't have an internal roadmap to craft a blog from, well, that's not a good sign either. Lots of companies do it and lots of companies don't. Saying it's a bad sign assumes this is some kind of priority they can't get done. I think it's likely not a priority and most of what they're going to say, at least short term, is known already. They're working on getting the next beta ready for alliances. This one will actually contain alliances. We're getting a balance patch in two weeks and have already had a preview. We're getting a new Canthan Zone and new story. They've started working on the next expansion, but we won't be getting details on that now. They're going to be updating the trading post. They're finalizing the full transition to DX 11. I also assume another Aurene weapon variant is coming, but I can't prove it. It's not like the company hasn't given us information at all. It's that people think a roadmap is just something companies have to do. It's something that some people want. I like a road map too, but it was never a priority for me. My guess is Anet has a date they want to provide information based on other information they have that we don't. For example, they might not have an exact date yet that the story will be ready because they ran into an unexpected problem. Just saying it's coming wouldn't do any good, so they delay the announcement until it's possible to accurately predict a date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnfall.9573 Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 (edited) I'm not impatient for Q1 2023 road map. What i would like to see is for the complete removal of stealth mechanic. Since Guild Wars 2 beta, many of the community has warned that this mechanic would threaten the fun factor of the game and resulting in backfire against the health of the game including the community and it has. 10 years later, all Professions with stealth mechanic are being used to abuse the health of the game. There is a say that says, "A spark can set a whole forest on fire. Just a spark. Save it" Q1 2023 road map- Stealth Mechanic has been removed from all Professions in the game.
