QLi.3742 Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 Who would like GW2 to be reset on 9.28.2012? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ardenwolfe.8590 Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 Um . . . a little late for 2012, don't you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanner Blackfeather.6509 Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 And what do you mean by "reset"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just a flesh wound.3589 Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 Presumably you mean the game set back to the way it was at launch. No expansions, new maps, wardrobe, elite professions, gliding, mounts, etc etc etc. No, I have no interest in that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmirkDog.3160 Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 This is really cryptic to me for some reason. Did this time traveler not warn us in time? Why 9.28.2012? What are you not telling us!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illconceived Was Na.9781 Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 Do you mean returned to the game as it was in September 2012, with a TP that barely functioned, needing to obtain (what was then, huge amounts of) gold to unlock traits, without gliders or mounts, without fractals? No thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AncientYs.8613 Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 @OP no thanks, mmo's like gw2 need time to get better and it has gotten better by coming into the current state it is now in 2018 with lots of QoL improvements 2 expansions mounts and new maps to explore. So I definitely do not want to go back to 2012. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endless Soul.5178 Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 Considering I didn't start playing this game until March 2015 (I was still very active in the original game until then), I would have NO account if the server was reset to OPs date.Not only that, I don't want to lose all the work I put into my account.A very solid NO!

QLi.3742 Posted May 7, 2018 Author Share Posted May 7, 2018 Gliders, mounts, expansions, wardrobe can stay. But a game play with old skills and guild leveling could be back. BLTC could work as it works now. Fractals could still be there. Old maps could be there. The 9.28.2012 ver. of a game could have all tings that latest has.

Nokomis.5076 Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 So you basically want everything to stay the same, just wanting to have some old skills which have been updated with a reason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrubySzymek.1362 Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 Nostalgia gogles again. It's like those people asking for vanilla wow. You gonna enjoy for a week or two and then start missing all the good stuff we have now. Except build templates, which we don't have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sasya neko.1985 Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 i never liked tier systems and the skill system got worse since launch, i want the system from the first beta where we could choose the skills we want with skill points without limits.

Illconceived Was Na.9781 Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 While a full reset might be possible, if someone actually bothered to save the game's code from launch, I partial reset (just of those things that the OP doesn't like) would be impossible. It would require re-writing nearly all the code, since things like the wardrobe are intertwined with everything, since the item database has been updated several times, etc.If any studio went through that much effort, they might as well put their energies into a new game.

The point I was making that a post saying “reset the game to 2012” is waaaaay to general and doesn’t explain what you want changed. There’s a lot of differences between 2012 and 2018 and skills/guilds are a very minor part. If you had said in your first post “Reset skills and guild leveling to 2012” it would mean you wouldn’t have gotten a bunch of responses about wardrobes, expansions, mounts, and whatever else is different from 2012. You would have gotten a discussion right away about those 2 things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QLi.3742 Posted May 7, 2018 Author Share Posted May 7, 2018 There is more : crafting, hero stats. Original Gw2 had more team based gameplay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneYenShort.3189 Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Sounds like the OP is walking down memory lane. Very subjective it is, and often times nicer than what it really was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opopanax.1803 Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 I would like a vanilla gw2. I'd also like a rp server and a server with open world PvP ruleset in some maps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
