Zerin.9834 Posted September 19 Share Posted September 19 I don't get why you guild wars 3 developers don't respond to if guild wars 3 will be for consoles and PC. Not everyone can buy a PC. So can you developers make guild wars 3 for consoles? 3 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeanBB.4268 Posted September 19 Share Posted September 19 a) What does this have to do with JW? b) Anet has not yet admitted to working on GW3, so you are wasting your time. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it was said that it was in discussion as a possibility for development. Probably by the time that happens, you can save enough money to buy a PC. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or a new concole, as if it is really released for consoles the current models will be rather outdated then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS7 pro will be out. In all honesty, why consoles for an mmorpg like guildwars 2? A controller can never have all those keybinds? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, FF14 has full controller support, and it's much more of the multiple-hotbars-of-abilities style of game design, similar to WoW. GW2 should honestly be much more straightforward to design controller support for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it wasn't, THE RUMOUR is investors were dissatisfied with GW2 financial performance, so NCsoft mentioned a it's a valuable IP and a potential GW3. But again, that was all a rumour, we have no idea if it actually went down like that, and if you look at the quarterly earnings of GW2 you'll notice that for many years it has been fairly consistent, so the claim investors were dissatisfied all of a sudden doesn't even make that much sense. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GW3 has not been officially confirmed at all. 7 minutes ago, Dean Calaway.9718 said: But again, that was all a rumour, we have no idea if it actually went down like that, and if you look at the quarterly earnings of GW2 you'll notice that for many years it has been fairly consistent, so the claim investors were dissatisfied all of a sudden doesn't even make that much sense. Yes it's definitely rumor at best. That meeting was purely about increasing profits. One of the things they considered was removing the CFO in favor of someone else who they think will somehow turn the company around and increase profits by a very wide (and probably unrealistic) margin. Investors expect perpetual growth, for some foolish reason. Steady and consistent profits are seen as the harbinger of economic doom, for some stupid reason. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCWest* financial performance plus calling into question whether the NCWest leadership is nepo hire. GW2 has been doing fine. NCWest is and has been a dumpster fire for years.

One thing they could do to increase profits was move the gem store away from the FOMO approach, I lost count how many skins I've wanted, they're not available, and by the time they return I can't be bother with them anymore. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randulf.7614 Posted September 19 Share Posted September 19 GW3 hasn't been announced. Also, even if it is in development, there is abosultely zero chance a GW2 forum (or any forum) is going to get any news, posts or announcements on an official basis. They would do that through official blogs and news pages as they do with GW2. They don't even come here to answer Q's on their active game. Their not going to do it on a game that is a mere rumour and been cancelled at least once already 😉 Also, given the console market is stumbling outside of Nintendo, it might not be much of a priority 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the guy who was speaking wasn't the NC Soft CEO (who couldn't be there) and he got flustered when asked about the performance of NC West. Chances are he wasn't in a position to know much about the inner working of ArenaNet and said GW3 instead of SotO or JW or whatever. It's pretty obvious that the studio is working on something else but it's doubtful that that's GW3 right now. ArenaNet sure aren't giving anything away.

That would likely have the opposite effect, thanks to gold to gem conversion. People would just wait until they get enough gems through conversion, rather than swipe the credit card because they don't have the gold at the moment or have the time to acquire it.
