^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

THIS

Millions of players playing with about 10,000 hacked accounts of which they are agressively fixing and setting straight.   You are blowing it out of proportion.

I'm all for artsy, in fact i love it when it's done brilliantly, but that was just bad.

 

As much as i hate CGI trailers, i think the beginning would have been so much better if they found a way to animate the painterly artstyle and eliminate the modern setting.

Yeah it's really confusing.  They touted their (admittedly very nice) art style for years, and then instead of using it for their first real trailer, they hire some Hollywood dumbass and have real people.  I agree about the CGI trailers though, they always get your hopes up for an awesome game but you soon realize the trailers were the best part (DCUO and WAR for example).

i dont think its blowing this out of proportion..10,000 accounts..anyways wrong thread for this discussion but i was just responding to what i believe correct..why are they selling again when they have'nt even dealt with the problems they have.

to put it another way ,the chinese must be licking their lips waiting for the next load of hacked accounts.

I enjoyed the ppl turning into characters and playing the game, but the hot stones and spray can was out of place.

less acting with some more ingame dragons. But also some of you have been to harsh with pointless critasism.

We'll see how much I'm "blowing it out of proportion". Maybe I am. I won't know until I actually hear back from Anet with something other than an  auto-response. NcSoft handles a few games with millions of customers that I'm sure combined have many support issues including fraud concerns. It took them a few hours to contact me (outside of the auto-response) and assure me I was being refunded the $120 charged to my card.

Doesnt matter how many players GW2 has.10,000 hacked accounts at the same time is telling of the security Anet has set up. I don't buy the "other website" excuse. Especially with all the email verification issues that also existed. 

When the thief changed my email there was no secret question security..or anything to confirm it was actually me . Just an email telling me there was a request for an email change and they hoped it was by me and then proceeded to change it anyway.

I just expect my characters back whether they say they can do it or not. Every other mmo can so i dont see the difference here.

If not , then I expect a refund of all my gems used to purchase dyes and what not for those characters.

What this guy said LOL. That opening just doesn't fit a fantasy MMO setting IMHO.... and hey why can't they ever use us Norn males vs. a Norn female? :-)

Everyone who is already interested in MMOs knows about GW2 for a long time. Some like it, Some not, whatever, no new customers to find for GW2 there.

So what target audience might this trailer have ? Hmmm ? Definately not the mmo nerds. They want to get the people with real lives who have no clue about GW2. Thats why you see real people most of the time and how they are drawn into GW2.

Imo they did a good job.

awesome
