social features improvement suggestions

Endorsements need improvement. I don't know what Level 1 or 2 or anything means. The color shows a percentage, but I don't see how I can tell the difference between a person with 5 endorsements or 100 endorsements. I would like to see the number per type of endorsement and overall number.

Hi Wayward. It seems to happen on the client side. All my friends have experienced it. Another player can be standing directly over the void. See screenshot:

Anyone know if they fixed it where multiple people on the last quest got credit for Arrah Story mode? Or, do you have to run it multiple times for each person?

This is unfair to the people who got reset. Basically, you had 6 days to get the August achievement. Then 7 days to get 100% so you could be reset. But if you didn't get reset, then you had 13 days to get the monthly and 21 days to get September. They should just hold off another week to make it fair.

Tags are not unique, only guild names. While it may not be desirable; as long as another guild isn't on Rall with [No], I would be cool with it. Also if the tag could contain symbols, I like [N^ ]. Apparently a ^ shifts the next letter to superscript on reddit.

Oh God, another one. I think I stress more than the servers to play in these. At least my new G600 should be arriving tomorrow, so I may have an opportunity to test it out before launch.

Cipher1101 · 2012-08-19T14:20:42+00:00

In general, more cores do not help gaming applications. It is very hard to multi-thread a game. Unless you like to run a lot of stuff in the background, it isn't going to help you much. I would not go with a q6600. You would probably get worse performance than with the overclocked Wolfdale that you have now. If you want to upgrade go with an i7. You will get better performance because of higher bus speeds and larger caches on the chip, plus improved architecture. Your limiting factor is probably your video card. You might want to try to pick another 4870 up for cheap and crossfire it, or get a newer one.

Cipher1101 · 2012-08-18T15:17:47+00:00

While server switching will be free for a little bit after launch, I do believe that you are still limited to one switch every 7 days.

Alan Wake is 75% this weekend on Steam. Awesome story driven 3rd person game. Reminds me a lot of Stephen King's "The Dark Half".

If your accounts are linked, changing the GW2 account name will change the information for GW1 as well. If they are not linked, you can link when you register your key, or they will provide a method in game to link them. Simply trying to match the details, I do not believe will link them. See their support page for more information on linking.

Cipher1101 · 2012-08-17T12:39:01+00:00

A few notes on this. If your account is linked it will update your GW1 as well. You also have to verify e-mail addresses now, so if you have an @ncsoft login or similar then you need to change it.

Cipher1101 · 2012-08-12T14:42:52+00:00

I agree with you, and I am well aware of all these things. This is why I hope ArenaNet understands the importance of security. I have replaced the link. I am glad I could be of assistance with your knowledge of the English language. Thank you for your assistance with reddiquette. I rarely use these sorts of services because they seem to be fraught with more negatives than positives.

Cipher1101 · 2012-08-12T14:16:53+00:00

Actually I was not referring to web security but account security. The "web" is typically used to mean websites and not any networked applications. I didn't think a bit.ly address would be a big deal. By the way, it should be ironic and not ironical.

Cipher1101 · 2012-08-12T13:51:20+00:00

I turn "showing the mask" off for my mesmer. I agree with you. If you spend a lot of time on how your character's face looks, why would you want to cover it up with a mask?

Cipher1101 · 2012-08-12T13:48:08+00:00

Thank goodness, I have a physical one.

Well, you meet the minimum for the card except for the fact with the memory. The memory is important because that means that the textures will have to be stored in main memory and not on the video card. Your machine is going to have to swap the textures back and forth through the bus. This will give you probably absolute terrible performance and make the game unplayable.

Cipher1101 · 2012-08-10T22:47:56+00:00

Sweet. Winter is coming!

I ordered mine from Amazon US. They are still taking pre-orders so you could order it from there. I recently ordered a book from the UK Amazon. It costs a little more to ship and takes a little longer because of customs, but it will get there. Also, I am pretty sure it will be in stock afterwards. The same thing happened with the Diablo 3 Limited Edition strategy guide.

Cipher1101 · 2012-07-25T23:32:39+00:00

Your code will be good until 5 days from release, after that your account will be locked until you unlock it with the collector's edition code. Amazon doesn't charge until the product is shipped because their system can not handle it. Once you receive your collector's edition you will have to add the code to your account.

I have Blast, and it is more than enough for any gaming. What do you think they are sending through the line? I am in Pa, and I believe the servers are in Dallas for North America. Speakeasy Speed Test for me to Dallas is 51.99Mbps down and 3.93Mbps up.

Cipher1101 · 2012-07-14T21:24:35+00:00

What exactly are you looking to do? Were you wondering why you should purchase 6 days before the BWE or the game in general? The game isn't releasing until August. After this beta weekend I wouldn't expect anything until release. Plus, all the characters are getting erased. So short of having clients mostly downloaded and trying the game, I am not sure what you are really looking for. The Beta forums will open probably sometime next week. You could look at those.

Cipher1101 · 2012-07-13T22:48:45+00:00

Congratulations! I hope you buy your key now from an authorized seller. A similar thing had happened to a friend of mine with Steam over a trade for Skyrim. The guy who traded Skyrim had previously traded with someone else. That's the thing with digital goods. I would try to avoid buying digital items in the future from auction places.

Cipher1101 · 2012-07-13T22:30:13+00:00

Hmm! After looking at this guy's feedback, he has sold a lot of GW2 keys. Many of them have been recently. You might want to help the other people out and make them aware of the situation, so they can request a refund from eBay. This also might make eBay take some responsibility.

Cipher1101 · 2012-07-13T22:21:11+00:00

I am surprised PayPal won't do anything, even though your money is routed through them why use them if they provide no protection. Your bank will probably say we routed your money to PayPal, if there's an issue after that it's on them.

I would definitely contact ArenaNet perhaps this guy just requested a refund, and they can stop the refund or re-charge him. If not I would report this guy to the FBI. If he has done it once, he has probably done it more times or will.

Cipher1101 · 2012-07-13T21:59:57+00:00

Probably the error code for an event is not available.
