I love the game so, except I had my account hacked and stoen in 2 days. I waited almost a week and decdied I would buy another. ( I didn't write down my serial code like an idiot) I put it into to support and it sat there, a little back and forth.

I change the e-mail to gmail, do a totally different off the wall password, and boom, I am at work today and my Iphone hums, this account just got stolen..lovely.

Check support, and I just got my first account back.

Guess I can't say anything bad about support, they got me my original account back, took a while, and granted I didnt have the all the info they needed either..but the second account stolen...good god!

Too many A$$ holes in the world. Sounds like you should maybe wipe your computer. hopefully it dosnt happen to you again.

The higher level areas have more active role for the mobs to play, such as taking over zones and what not.

Crafting is a must in my opinions because crafted gear is 10 levels above dropped or reward gear and it helps to level your character at the same time as keeping him geared.

So, 9 out of 10 is what I'm guessing this site will give GW2.

I say cut the crap and just give it a 10 out of 10.  Pony-up, as they say.  Because MMOs won't ever get better than this one. Not themepark MMOs anyway.

Agreed to that!

Months ago I posted that the one thing I really liked about personal quests is that it "calls upon me" to travel somewhere to save the day. So not jarring to me at all, in fact I really like the difference. 

Plus I guess we all forget that before quest hubs became what they are today even wow sent you to far away Zones for quests.

Bigger population cap or possibly another couple of areas/maps. More ground to cover, bigger pop. cap, in case they're worried about player concentration. Shouldn't be hard to design another map that can be placed between each servers border and the central eternal battleground.

It would be smart for Anet to wait at least a few months before they touch this though. We need to let the dust settle and see how well the game retains players before any major changes are made to the systems in place. For now a small bump in player cap would be enough.

when you compare combat with other games i wonder why you don't mention c9 it has the best combat in all games especially comboing. just saying.

werd. It's idiotic.

Hacking problems like crazy and horrible/delayed support yet customer service still has 8.6 on mmorpg..

But we all know it will get a huge rating for obvious reasons..

Thumbs up on the review in progress so far.  I think it mirrors how I feel about the game.  I rolled a Asura Mesmer, so I've been following a simira path too ... basically, Infinity Ball this, find a bigger power source that, try not to blow up the world in the process.  Lot's a fun and it's been a really smooth leveling curve too.

There are two parts of the game so far that stand out.  The first is the AC inspired vistas, which are really cool only because someone put a lot of time, effort and love into crafting the environments.  AAA work there.  There other part is the random conversations that you run acorss.  I wandered into the Sylvari area and found 3 npcs discussing the finer points of rock-paper-scissors and how unrealistic the game is i.e. rock woudl smash paper.  It's funny as hell and continues for a lot longer than you would expect it too.  It's those little things that have really made the game a joy to play so far.

The environments are incredibly well crafted and the npcs that live in those environments really breath life into the game.

Shit... it's almost like some companies do do something wtih that $15 a month...

I've never had a W v W queue, am on Borlis Pass and play Australian evenings.

Obviously a few of you need to emigrate (server and country) :)

To the author,

As others have suggested, I would advise your guild to switch to another realm.  There are several highly competitive servers that have very low queue times.

I've also noticed a discrepancy in queue times due to character levels.  I do not have hard numbers, but it seems that a level 80 character gets into WvW much quicker than low-to-mid-level characters.

I actually left Jade Quarry within the first few days of early start, because everyone and their mom was there, and the population was very heavily tilted toward being people who WvW. 

I think this may be one of the things that caught ANet off guard.  I certainly didn't expect WvW to be this popular, and it makes me wonder if maybe they didn't either.

The most surprising thing for me about playing GW2 is the degree to which it's made me realize how very annoying, tedious, and clumsy other, older MMOs are.  This is the game future games will look to for copying - sorry, I mean - inspiration.  (Soon, the phrase "WoW clone" will be replaced by "GW2 clone". )
