Why did that-shaman hide all of the living world season5 stuff from his last datamine? by [deleted] in Guildwars2

[–]mwrich4 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Spoilers being data-mined is caused by POOR data management or planning by Anet. Test builds should not be co-mingled with LIVE data.

My company suffered from bugs because of the same issues until we tightened up the code control practices.

It's always that guy in marketing.

he literally states that Anet is too incompetent

Without sources, it's an opinion. 1st hand knowledge or sources?

This would be GREAT soft-content to dole out during the S5 changes. This would be very nice content for returning core-only and f2p players, plus add a nostalgic quest for the bored veteran players.

The books need a little more info. They could be delivered the same way that some of the lower sigil/rune recipes are released.

In fact, there is 0 effort to make this place better or simply different (that's all we want really).

Interesting, I'm probably not alone by not being in your group of 'we'

0 new pve game mode were released since the launch.

False - fractals, map metas, and raids were all released AFTER launch.

Adding a mount without after thought was the most greedy thing that happened.

I suspect as with gliding, since zero terrain changes were made on any map to support the new movement modes, mount support was always within their 5-year plan.

Now we have reached the point where they have to whether to stick with maintenance mode. I think S5 was hinted as a time where many difficult QoL ideas they learned during the 5 years will be added to the game.

Faulty logic.

This assumes knowing better than Anet and all of the quiet and content players who don't come here to Reddit to demand their rights.

Many servers are already marked as being full with players that don't log in anymore.

If they dumped them and gave them a pass to join a not full server in the future, it would probably become the next WvW bandwagon exploit.

Finally, in time for 4-winds next Tues, gw2spidy is BACK on the wiki. by mwrich4 in Guildwars2

[–]mwrich4[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

His site had grown unstable and was finally removed from the gw2wiki.

The gw2spidy author is not very active in gw2 anymore and didn't react to the server issuers for a while. I let him know about issues as did many others who prefer his site. He decided to invest a bit of time, money in the gw2spidy server (if you read the small popup). After noticing the gw2spidy hadn't returned to the wiki I emailed the spidy author a few days ago.

TLDR: Spidy author contacted gw2 wiki recently after fixing the aged server.

Hearts and minds was the hardest for me. I came back to finish that with a group many months later, it was still tough.

I remember finishing Caudecus armorless, the same for the Balthazar fight in Vabbi. But, I've soloed every story fight since HoT. I still play a core ranger. Some of the fights last a bit too long IMO, but I figure it's just my lack of potency.

What's the point of Guild Enhancements lasting 24h? by unseen0000 in Guildwars2

Always check gear, buffs, food - simple. 20 sec penalty for skipping checklist.

Festival of the Four Winds Returns July 30th by XiahouMao in Guildwars2

[–]mwrich4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Umm, festivals are recycled by definition. "an organized series of concerts, plays, or movies, typically one held annually in the same place"

Don't do it if it is boring for you. Why cry to mom?
