    cmon, it's time to stop. and I mean stop posting biased, unsubstantiated crap and call 'mental' people who are just pointing out that you sound like a desperate 'hater' on a bad day... there is nothing you can do to 'get back' at 'gw2 fanbois' because yeah the game turned out to be great. Sorry

    Because mounts has it's own subsection in your mini review, I don't really respect your mini review.
    I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy every minute of it.

    No, you had some grudge that I really don't understand nor I care and then in EVERY post you made you just spewed negative crap trying to pass it as an impartial opinion.

     

    That is fine with me, it's actually fun

    But don't try to hide the reality.Oh and please refrain from personal insults, if you can

    PS funny how your last line seems to apply more to your posts than mine :)

    What was not true about that one?  You must not have been around sat the game was down for awhile that was a very fair post.  Again you ignorant tool I never said I hate the game I am playing the game.  All I ever said is its not the greatest game ever.  I am sorry if for some sick sorry way you got offended by that.  Please move on to some other post and try to fanb@! there.  Your sick, stalking, ignorant rants are not welcome here.

    Well I usually do refrain from them, but when someone want to try and attack me with lies and ignorant post I will call you out for what your are.

    Hey Gaborik....not polite to ruin peoples fun for launch.  Its like telling a little kid santa isnt real on christmas eve.  So stop being realistic and start tumpeting this game as the next comming of god....

    Because lets be honest here...these people ALWAYS pick a game to hype that is a huge smashing success years down the road.  Just look at AoC, WAR, RIFT, AION, SWTOR...these guys never pick a loser...so you better hop on this bandwagon right now...as they say  "we dunt like yer type round here" *spats tobacco*

     

    Anyway for people who avoid hype its like watching a train wreck in slow motion....

    Wait untill the reality of grinding mats to craft for endgame hits the masses...thats going to be a fun time.

    There are no attacks or lies or personal whatever mate

    You made a stupid post. Everyone called you out on that. To prove you are a phony, I LINKED your post history

    Now, make of that what you want,I really don't care. But maybe you should speak with someone about your urges to crap on other people's fun or why is that important to you that GW2 is recognised as a crappy over hyped game.

    Actually, start asking yourself

    I am not going to go through what you said, I didnt crap on anyone fun, I came on a forum and discussed my early thoughts.  In that post I stated more then once I am having fun.  In that post I asked questions, not everyone called me out (another lie) you my friend took a post  personal for some weird reason now its time for you to step outside and take a deep breath.  its ok buddy just because I had a few concern does not mean I ruined the fun for anyone, very cute and I got a good laugh about that one.

    Why don't you take your own advice? Go do some jogging, I heard it's very good for shaken nerves and depression

    You all missed the joke in this thread's title. It left the gate as B2p/F2p, what do you think that RMT cash shop thing is? Sure they give you some free gems, first hit is always free. The next hit will cost ya. Listen they knew the quality of the product they are pushing, so they chose F2p from the get go rather than wait 4 or 6 months.

    Don’t plan on using the cash shop. Well they are collecting that data. And the game will change, until you are living out of that cash shop or whining about how the game has become P2w. Welcome to Guildcrack.

    Pardon any spelling errors
    Konfess your cyns and some maybe forgiven
    Boy: Why can't I talk to Him?
    Mom: We don't talk to Priests.
    As if it could exist, without being payed for.
    F2P means you get what you paid for. Pay nothing, get nothing.
    Even telemarketers wouldn't think that.
    It costs money to play.  Therefore P2W.

    Question:

    If they remove the box sale and then put new skills in the cash shop will the game have gone totally f2p?

    Combat: Its not bad but not even close to revolutionary [mod edit]

    Action combat that is actually fluid and dynamic with inter-class combos is pretty revolutionary, there hasnt been another game on the market that matches it. TERA, Vindictus etc have action combat, but with animation locks and no inter-class combos. Chances are that you have only played the newbie area and not seen what an organised group can do.

    Quest: Its still the same old thing, except now instead of number there is a bar that tells you when you get close to your goal. I hope its not the same over and over find new area > find the heart > kill, pick up, or follow until the bar is full until max level.

    Once again, try actually leaving the newbie area. Heart quests are not the bread and butter of GW2. They are an introduction to dynamic events and act as guideposts while you are a newbie. Once you get a few levels these will become less frequent and you will have to find your own adventure with dynamic events.

    Crafting: Again nothing revolution to go all crazy about

    I don't think anyone ever claimed that crafting was revolutionary? Its functional and better than most other games, but not as good as some like Vanguard or olden days EQ2.

    Mounts: Umm wait there are none

    Once again, it is well known that this game doesn't have mounts. GW1 never had mounts. They arent necessary due to being able to teleport anywhere you want instantly once you have been there. Unless there is mounted combat I dont see the point of having a sparkle pony.

    Events are fun but would hate to try this game in a month when there is nobody around in the starting zones.

    Events scale to group size, so they will be just as fun and challenging by yourself as with 30 people.

    Zones: feel very linear, very spoon fed, I also hope once you get to higher level areas there is more freedom to explore.

    What did you honestly expect from a newbie area? It is there to show people the ropes. Later zones are massive and non-linear.

    I find the game to be fun, this game is not what [mod edit] have claimed it to be not even close. If you going to compare other MMO's to this I really dont see how it can be called amazing.

    If you are going to compare this game to other MMOs try being a little bit informed. Informed players know exactly why this game is amazing.

    See i find that argument retarded..."Informed players know exactly why this game is amazing."  So basically your suggesting that anyone who dislikes the game is not informed and or dumb?

    Personally i took a lot of time looking at the game, even played one beta, dont profess to be a sage on the game, have a lot of friends right now in game.

    Its exactly the information ive experienced and what i continually hear and see that made me pass on this game.

    I saw through the hype, i saw through the gimmick features.

    I realized, as many will realize one the excitement of it being a new game wears out...this is just the latest reincarnation of the same old.

     

    Its easy to attach positive buzzwords to every aspect of the game, especially during an overhyped launch when the majority of people are frothing at the mouth over the game.

     

    Im just continually shocked every time one of these games launches with excessive hype and a super defensive community ont he forums.  Its like every prior launch that happend the have the same exact expectations and early hype never took place and no one remembers what happend a few weeks after launch when reality set in.  When people realized that this was just another some old game.

    I really thought after SWTOR that this kind of nonsense would cease.  People would realize whats going on and save the aggressive defense of a game untill after a month when many people have started experiencing endgame...a part of these games that always makes or breaks the game...usually breaking.

    Two weeks from now not a single player is going to care how totally awesome launch week was and how great the game is your frist week or two in...people are going to care about its long term endgame.  

    Personally i think at this point people are going to want more than the same old pvp queues and zerg pvp, but what do i know ive only watched the same exact chain of event occur no less than 5 times.  AoC,Aion,WAR,Rift,SWTOR just off the top of my head.  Its like its groundhog day without bill murray.

    So...i think your little comparison is way off base...people know about this game...its been hyped up here for a long time.  Its always an amazing game when its fresh and new...but these games go stale fast, been proven over and over.  

     

    Wonder how many "fans" of GW2 were stuck in hype mode for SWTOR and Rift?  Wonder how long it took them to realize?  Wonder why after that are they here now repeating the same thing over again?  Especially since these people tend to really hate the game they last played...in this case SWTOR...people hate that game now...why repeate the same process that led you to really hate the last game you playe?  Its all retarded.
