I have yet to run into a heart quest or a DE that was bugged. I DID see a skill point in the level 75-80 zone way down south (forget the name of the area) that was bugged. You have to kill a mob to get the skillpoint but he was untargetable. Some players found out you can have a guardian hit the ground with a certain staff attack to knock it loose to do it. The only other real bug in terms of PvE content I've seen was the final boss of the level 50 dungeon in the tree was unbeatable for my group due to a glitch, but then ironically self destructed due to another glitch. Despite these instances, I'm not really seeing the wall-to-wall bugs and stuff personally so far.

I agree with you, however, other people opening threads calling Guild Wars 2 for a '' buggy mess '' is also dishonest. Haters are opening threads, everyday, in this forum, about how bad the game actually is. However, when you check other sites, previews, reviews and threads with valid arguments, you see a whole new reality. It is not about being a fanboi or a hater, but an honest person, and as a gamer, I think, everyone should respect the great work ArenaNet did. |

Originally posted by Nikkita I'm 30 and I havent encountered any issues. People want to come to the rescue to the game because of the many negative posts about the game by people who clearly havent even played the game (I'm not saying that tward the OP in this case) Many of the negative posts on this forum dont really care about the content of the threads that follow but are meant to keep the title floating at the top of the forum list as long as possible because that where the most negativity is spread, in the thread title in the forum list and not within the discussion. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AnehIt7ZjOc |

If a game being a buggy mess particularly bothered you, then you wouldn't have picked up a new game so soon after launch.

Originally posted by Stellus ridiculous hyperbole aside, most of what you described can't necessarily be fixed pre-release, they are MASSIVE load specific issues. And for the events, Ive seen 3 total throughout 63 levels that were bugged. It happens, but can be difficult to nail down in a testing/beta environment because of the sheer amount of events and that they dont always bug.
The game isnt bug free, no. But its certainly in more than acceptable release shape. |

I find it surprising that one could level to almost max level without seeing any bugs. Seeing that there seems to be 1-2 bugged DE's in every zone 50+ and up. |

i dunno which game you're playing but i've had 0 issues since their last build. Unlike other game companies when they put out an update it sticks and doesn't cause extra bugs to occur. The login server downtime....exactly ten minutes. seriously gonna complain about something go complain about some other games full days server down times. when the game restarts they always give you in game warnings for three minutes prior to the game restarting. it's never been any other way. It was that way for the login server restart as well. I'm not saying people can't say negative things about this game but please quit with the misinformation threads they are getting REALLY old now. |

Originally posted by Nikkita It about equally as dishonest as encountering a few bugs and proclaiming the game is in shambles, which simply is not true. This game is extremely polished for an MMO launch. Don't get me wrong, I hate it when anyone makes any claims to the extreme. I dislike players who proclaim that everything is perfect (it's not) as much as I dislike players who proclaim that the game is in ruins, or a "buggy mess" (it's not.) Though admittedly, I probably dislike the latter group a bit more, mostly because I feel they are further from the actual truth. Neither argument helps their respective cases, and instead just looks and sounds ridiculous. But more, both arguments are doing a diservice to truth, which should be the only thing they are concerned about. Instead, it just sounds like they each have an agenda and carefully skew their presentation of the game's state to accomodate that agenda. |

The OP is not lying he's correct and I also hate those people saying nonono you're lying, you're a troll, blablabla so cut it out many people are experiencing these problems just because you didn't doesn't mean there isn't. Now, my opinion regarding DE's bugging out is regarding Anet servers are expiercing framerate issues that makes events skip or skip parts of their routine. I create games with a program when I'm bored and one game I was trying to do was going to have dynamic events throughout the game. I got many problems each different every time I play tested because sometimes it would skip something from x and sometimes from y, sometimes even work flawlesy it was very confusing and frustrating. So to conclude Anet needs to upgrade their computers because it's clear they are not handling the amount of players in each zone resulting in events bugging out. |

Originally posted by The_Korrigan And as I suspected a poster that can't get criticism on the "world greatest mmorpg" but I'll bait. Like previous poster said if current launch problems are any indication they indeed need to check if their servers are handling the load as from my observation the DE problems could be linked with that. And this time please read that I'm not saying it's that but could be the reason so before posting more spam pictures to close threads that are not hating but having actual sense you read more carefully :) |

It is a fun game. Across my characters however; I have run into a substantial amount of bugged events. I mean it is not something that is shrugged off. It has an impact on gameplay. I prefer choice, not running the same non-bugged DEs over and over and over. I already have to run them more than I like without the other DEs in the area being bugged to hell and back. Being new has certainly lost its excuse appeal for me. At this point every new game is like ground hogs day (some worse than others.) Bill Murray should be present at launches. It is equivalent to quests simply not working. For some it seems a minor issues. For me it has been a problem. I noticed switching to overflow helps, but only sometimes.

By this time, anyone that plays a game that just came out should realize that every game is a buggy mess. Its a mmo standard....

Today, events are bugging out on a large scale, including major zone events like the Claw of Jormag. I swear they spent 5 years on the 1-30 game and 5 months on the rest . It also feels like they never tested anything for large amounts of people. Memories of AoC, just not quite as bad. |

Yah there's bugs but don't call it a buggy mess. It is week two of the game of a HUGE game.

Originally posted by Sentime Yeah the claw has been down on our server for a couple days now. It's a pretty boring event anyways tbh. I think people only do it because of the chest it spawns when you beat it. |

Originally posted by Sentime Strange thing, i never find those bugs...
An ocasional disconnect, thats the worst thing happening to me.
People comparing the game to AoC release really have no clue... The game had no content at all after level 20. Best MMO experiences : EQ(PvE), DAoC(PvP), WoW(total package) |
