I suggest you to bring an ArenaNet's Community Manager here to confirm what you are saying. Oh, I forgot, there isn't community managers anymore and Rubi is more a Senior Content Marketing Strategist than a relay for the suggestions of the players. Besides that, anyone here can say to me when happened the last Guild Chat ? They do not have to confirm anything. I do however agree that guild chats could be more frequent. But poor communication does not mean they do not listen and don’t read our complaints and suggestions.

Morvran.8265 Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 Anet was never big on communication but after IBS they stopped entirely, except for the occasional blogpost. More dev interactions would go a long way showing the community that there is a dev team and they didn't ditch us for side projects.. again. 9 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need a better source. I’ll keep waiting This 100 % With the weapon changes and new combos, you can make i fear the famous Anet Nerf hammer because of Pvper's complaints too.

There are real statistics about the popularity of some game modes: The statistics of GW2 Efficiency. The developers' statistics: spoiler, there are not any. On the facts, GW2 Efficiency is closer of the reality that what has been communicated to us. It's interesting to see that the only argument used by a lot of people here to prevent people to expressing themselves is just "you speak for us but you are not us, blablabla". I honestly don't care. 1 1 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arena Net's prescence in twitter, gw2 forums and email support is barely existant. We recently paid for a weird expansion that instead of be bringing us joy, has furthermore made the current state of in-game life a garbage mess. But Arena Net is absent regarding back day unresloved messes in terms of class balance , And is absent today with the current mess they made out of new patches. And sadly these descisions made by the current developers are completely making a waste of your time spent in game and money. We want Arena Net to do something about the weird silence and actually talk to us. , and even more, Do something about your class developers, they are upsetting ALL of your clients, and belive me , that is bad for business. So why are you giving mixed signals to Anet mate. If you are unhappy with the game and expansion why on earth would you preorder the expansion? That give the signal that all is ok keep doing what your doing. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't need to cite anything. You're the one making the argument. The standard of proof lies with you. And the devs have nothing to do with GW2E which is what I was asking you to prove. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are unhappy with the game and expansion why on earth would you preorder the expansion? That give the signal that all is ok keep doing what your doing. I've decided I'm not buying it. I bought Diablo IV instead (which...in my case says a lot when I haven't bought anything but FFXIV and GW2 in five years, and SotO was so disheartening that I turned to a kitten Blizzard release, if only to have the comfort of current, to-date design and support). Maybe if SotO makes sense in the context of...whatever future vision the developers think they are building...and this GW2.0 makes more cohesive sense as its own thing in a few years, I may buy it. But given the context as it exists now, I would be insane to buy in. If GW2 were a romantic relationship, this would be the point where I look back on several years of us never being on the same page and saying "okay, staying with you is only going to increase our tensions/conflicts". You cite irreconcilable differences, you make the needed space, and you table the idea that maybe the relationship could be revisited after they get their kitten together.

Ivaldi.5076 Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 I'm confused, you have now eliminated any DPS option from the 2nd row of Specter. It is effectively now a dead talent row. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loboling.5293 Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 Please decouple alacrity generation on druid from CA. I like some people's suggestions for making it apply on Regen application. Druid can spam out a lot of regen with different skills. This would be nice. Doing it on blasts works too for druid. I also think the spirits needs higher boon uptime, and a slight increase in the timer until they set off their blasts. It should blast 1.5-2 seconds after placing down. IMO. This allows you to place down 2 and more reliably get a water field down in time for the blasts to go off. I'd say each spirit should give 50% uptime on their respective boons. So with full boon duration you can cap on your spirit boons. Basically, some more boons durations on spirits, and decouple alacrity from CA, so CA can still be used as an emergency heal mode and not just cycling sustain with boon spam. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you claim majority of the players complain, you need statistics of all the players to make your claims. What am I complaining about? I’m curious That's not how statistics work though. You don't need to ask EVERYONE to get data about the true value. It needs to be a representative sample population and big enough. You can safely assume that for GW2 Efficiency both requirements are met, therefore we can assume it's representative. 1 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right about not needing to ask everyone, and that samples need to be of sufficient size for the confidence level required etc., and also representative. The sample size is usually a pretty low bar - this is most often below 1000. However, although the sample size (all of GW2E, so massively more than what'd be required) would be fine, it's a clear example of a self-selected sample, so can't be taken to be representative. Players decide whether or not their own data gets added to GW2E by inputting their API key, so self-selection bias remains an issue if one wants to draw valid conclusions from GW2E about the playerbase of GW2 as a whole. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to respectfully point out that your conclusion of GW2 being representative is based on assumption it is representative. I'm very sorry, but that's not how it works. No. Gw2effficiency is, unfortunately, a biased sample. And to make things worse, we can't even estimate that bias (or rather biases, because there's more than one) in order to try to correct it. As such, even though it is used as "data" in different discussions quite often (because it's practically the only dataset we have access to), deriving any constructive info from it is... let's say, a challenging proposal. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
