lare.5129 Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Don't see any problem if there are no any new content. For new players it will be new.And this perfect adventure with teammates make some action without any slipper slope. So why not ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Alfred.6541 Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 I would be fine with skipping half a year of new story content if this means that old bugs are fixed and old content gets rebalanced/completed, like SAB and Zhaitan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abelisk.5148 Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Looks like new content! Two new achievements, new tool upgrades, adventures in EVERY zone and possibly new NPCs and areas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hugo.4705 Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Yeah very curious about that new vendor selling limited rewards each day."A new vendor has been added for the duration of the festival in Rata Sum, trading a limited supply of valuable prizes each week! The inventory will be restocked when weekly rewards reset, so be sure to spend your Bauble Bubbles before 12:30 a.m. Pacific Time (UTC-7) each Monday."But I'm very thankful for adding new decos, and weapons within sab (boomerang and mega bomb).For the adventures I wait to see.

Illconceived Was Na.9781 Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 FYI SAB starts Thursday 9 am ANet time(it's not mentioned in the text of the announcement and people have been asking in game)(It is mentioned in the patch notes, which ... are not where most people get their GW2 news) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abelisk.5148 Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 If it's your first time playing through SAB and you wanna get everything, I advise against using guides. It ruins literally all the excitement from discovering things.However, if you're in to complete everything and are dead set on using a guide, go ahead. It's a LOT more exciting not using--a lot more rewarding. Have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stalkingwolf.6035 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 its my first SAB Event and i like it. kudos to everybody who finish this hard without Infinite Continue Coin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genuinetheo.6591 Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 I would have loved to see this game mode be revitalized with new and even more interesting maps, mobs and general mayhem :) it's a very fun game mode that I'm sad to see is still incomplete. Such an amazing testament to the creativity developers can have even in the grindfest world we live in now. I'm still very excited and happy to see it make yet another return.

Ipomoea Jalapa.6897 Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Was the English dialogue from shopkeepers changed to some other cryptic language for 2019? Or did I accidentally change some setting? I remember previously that he would thank me for destroying his furniture, say "This water is improper", etc. But now all I see is unreadable subtitles every time he talks.

Tiviana.2650 Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Okay so i did the 2 zones, someone said there are more that have not been added to the game yet. Its been awhile they said, are they going to finish the rest of the story zones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again I find it unnaceptable to not finish something but again, my opinion. In fact would like a lot more sab update than another ls with dragons....

Or even the name of the song? It's kinda cute and catchy. The track is "Rytlock's Critter Rampage", composed by Maclaine Diemer, and the metal cover in the trailer was done by me. I've actually covered the entire Super Adventure Box soundtrack, and you can find those covers for free on my Bandcamp page.http://itstartsatdusk.bandcamp.comHuge ups to @hugo.4705 for the shout-out, btw. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even more so, because it has real content that keeps you busy for weeks, unlike any of the others which are all grinds or have so little to do that you are done within a day or two. It has six unique maps of its own, which are complex and test your hand-eye coordination and your reflexes as well as player skill, not to mention the many achievements and rewards you can get by playing those maps. It even has a "hard mode" which provides an extra twist to the whole thing.Just because you don't like the event per se does not invalidate it as such. I used to feel about it like you do, until I tried it for real this year, and it is surprisingly good and fun (tons of fun, actually). An asuran "virtual reality" simulator isn't any weirder than any of the other asuran technology that also doesn't fit into a fantansy setting (machines that let you see "God", so to speak, a.k.a. the Eternal Alchemy, computer terminals that are online and interconnected across the globe, and what not). Asuran technology exists, deal with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stalkingwolf.6035 Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 i love it and it would be great if they would add W3 and/or W4.Currently im just doing SAB every day.

Asuran technology exists, deal with it.We're not discussing the contents, though, but the reasoning if anet should put in resources into this content or not.I think not, because doesn't even seem to have enough resources for the core content.I'm fine with the (horrendous) stuff as long as it stays in that cube.The content is fine, i agree, but the graphics and sounds really hurt my bones. But as long as i have AP to earn there, I'll survive play it.I think i would've preferred the simulator if it had normal 3d models albeit with a holographic filter you see in the Rings of Fire episide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hugo.4705 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Will bring the opposite point, does Anet should put more ressources in SAB? I think yes, it was a primary festival back in 2013-14: two releases in less than one year (one for each world), now it's a secondary one due to addition of other festivals: fofw, halloween, wintersday, lunar, gauntlet...One side, we have a content which is the same since the beginning: ls (maps but ultimately the same boring goal: dragons), on the other side: a brand new content with maps without any link with dragon, a good little story.

That's why I suggested to make it only one more world instead of two, but at least conclude the whole thing.
