So We Are 80 What Now? Volume 3 Flame&Frost Retribution

So here we are 5 days from the final patch in the Flame and Frost Trilogy. Has it lived up to everything that you wanted? So what now is the usual phrase we say a lot in gaming? Well something that has me the most excited in a long time. Is the custom arena system about to be added nice! That will allow us to go solo and finally duel. Even better are you can actually do it with a nice audience for bragging rights?
Another thing nice is the Living Story actually getting a major instance for use. I look forward to some new content I can figure out. I like being a solo artist so let’s see if I can roll this one. I’m not that keen on the back guild flags. I could give it a name but it would get me banned off the net nowadays if I said it. The Quaggan guild race might be fun. One hundred cool points to Arena Net if we DO NOT sound like Quaggan during the race.
Now while we are on the topic of new things and innovations. How do you guys feel about raiding content being in need in this game? Do you think it will work? Will you rage like a 10 year old if it happens? Will you embrace it like an adult who knows it’s sorely needed? I make a strong suggestion in the video on a solution for that.
My next grudge or rather suggestion is rather simple. For the love of god hire the Second Life community to make us proper clothes in the shop. Someone do something valid that we can have a sense of unique style. Right now the shop is lacking big time. You think something that has the potential to give the company massive money. Would be more in a better place with variety, sadly this is not the case at the moment.
My last suggestion is we need more dungeons and variety to the dungeons. No one really wants to do them anymore. And new dungeons will not stem this distaste. Unless they come out with innovations or change it up a bit. At any rate that’s all for me hope you enjoyed it. And sound off as much as you like. I’m sure plenty of issues I didn’t say are out there. These are just the immediate ones I think are easy fixes.

I really don't want any more dungeons unless the armor actually looks exciting. after Arah, CoF and TA, I don't really like any of the other max level armor looks for cloth. they just look so boring. except maybe the Sorrows Embrace armor, but damn those moles make me not want to ever do path 2 or 3 of that thing.
I play MMOs for the Forum PVP
What's with this one-sided, biased bullshit? If we don't like raiding we're "raging like 10 year olds", but if we like it we're adults"; pure rubbish. I'm sorry you've been brainwashed by other games, really I am. But this game is in no need for raiding, and is not designed for such content in the sense that you are wanting it.
Instanced raiding is set with group number restrictions because the mechanics of said content is set to be gated, restrictive, and set a certain way so that only certain classes and builds can go together. Not only would this kind of content cause major issues within a community and bring a lot of raging itself, but...it's just not possible. Why? Because this game tossed out the "Holy Trinity" and built a more action oriented combat system. Also, raiding doesn't fit into the lore set up of the game or it's content as a whole.
The Quaggan race transforms you and your guildmates into Quaggan for the race, so you'd better believe you'll sound like a Quaggan during it.
The clothing shop has had many things added to it and removed and so on. Holiday wear has come and gone during Halloween and Wintersday. But, besides designing unique shop gear, they don't want to focus it all there. Small pieces here and there while the bulk of additions are going to be free stuff for players that are obtainable in the game. Unlike the simplistic Second Life, this game isn't F2P and they need to entice new players and justify the $60 paid. This kind of good will towards the paying customers will get them to then, by choice, purchase stuff from the in-game store.
Last note I would like to say is that I'm not going to click on your video and give you views. You sound like someone who has no clue on what game that they're talking about (let alone if you're actually playing it), and just try to find controversial bullshit topics to talk about, plug into a fan forum, and bait people to go to your video. No dice.
Oderint, dum metuant.
I agree - people want to make GW2 into something it is not. I am enjoying the game as it is.
If you want raiding, there are plenty of games that allow that.
Raiding well are you going to act like an "adult" when you get the same gear i can get not raiding? The answer for most raiders is no, why raid if I can't get the best gear in the game doing it? I'd rather Anet spend zero effort on raiding and work other content that I will play.
Don't know about clothes cause I don't wear them.
If dungeons added are more of the same then no don't add any new. I think fractals was a nice addtion in that it's differnet from the others. If a dungeon can be offered that is different, clever, fresh yeah that would be nice I'd put effort into that.
I do agree that there should be a bit more push with guilds, far as being exclusive, not so sure but yea guild raids don't sound bad to me.
I might get banned for this. - Rizel Star.
I'm not afraid to tell trolls what they [need] to hear, even if that means for me to have an forced absence afterwards.
P2P LOGIC = If it's P2P it means longevity, overall better game, and THE BEST SUPPORT EVER!!!!!(Which has been rinsed and repeated about a thousand times)
Common Sense Logic = P2P logic is no better than F2P Logic.
I disagree with you there. One can only do so much with the content given to them. The world is there, but the interaction and the tools aren't useful, or not even existent. Content creation isn't supported by themepark MMOs. Virtual worlds such as Second Life have tools to extend the experience, but MMOs do not, and although some sandbox mmos try, it's still very limited. The only thing guilds can do, is to set up schedules on a website for events, but they are still limited by what they can actually do in game.
I'd rather see both but the game needs something to work for and something of substance because this fluff is what caused alot to quit. There truely is no endgame currently and that is why the game sucks once you've aquired all the exotic gear.

I don't think we need a skinner box -_- ANet already took a hit when they released ascended gear for the treadmill crowd.
The only "raids" I believe we could use are 2-3 team dungeons or instances. The gear should be unique in appearance ONLY as well. Perhaps new titles, effects, and unique looking gear (a la Voltaic Spear and Bone Dragon Staff), but I see no reason to add another tier.

OP....same answer Arenanet has for WvW play
Pretend it didn't happen and do it all over again.
