This is ridiculous, if I don't at least have the GW:EN log-in screen added.

OMG!!! This is really, really bad... Ok, now I have just had the most frustrating 10 minutes of my life. This shows how the GW people come up with some hairbrained idea and don't think it out.

Have fun with selling an item...

I posted an item WTS (fill in blank for an item) R9 100k+65e

Ok... it automatically sticks it up in party window and cuts it off at:
WTS (fill in blank for an item) R9 100k

I then have literally 35 people pming me, opening trade with me, harassing me, saying I posted 100k for the item and I have to sell it, etc.... because it looks like I am selling one of the most desireable items in the game for a fraction of the going price...

I never posted in party, the update puts it up there for you, cuts it off and suffer the consequences... Try it, you will love the hate mail you are about to receive.... Oh.. and I kept the name as SHORT AS POSSIBLE.... holy cow... these people are stupid.

Worst update of the last 12 months...

Overall decent update, but big failure for the party search.

They need to remove the "party search" every time you use chat, and EXPAND THE DAMN TEXT LIMIT FOR PARTY SEARCH!

That is the major reason why most have not been using it.

They also need to make the party window resize optional. Why do they never make these things optional to begin with? They should know by now it's a bad idea not to do so.

Is the whole of GWEN downloaded by doing -image?
7% = 50MB so thats what 714MB of data in 100%
GW:EN areas can be seen is cool shame they can't be reached

EDIT Went to 8% at exactly 81.5MB meaning 100% = 1,018.75 MB NEARLY A GIGABYTE

All are 3 listed on the screen, but british pounds are still the only option for me when I get to the checkout =(

Default Black rectangle

I was complaining about how the size of the map (with the add on of the northern areas) got incresced in length but not in width and how annoying it was to look athat black space when I noticed a smaller area of black right under DÁlessio Seaboard.

So ofcurse me and someone else immediatly went to check it out. On the mni map and on the compass it showed up as a black rectangle but it didn't change any of the graphics anywhere else. Dissapointing really...we wanted to fall of the map

Anyone else got it?

I'm having this problem. All of my windows appear in the top right hand corner, tried rearranging them but it just doesn't look right.

Balls update.

The Party search panel sucks at this point, we need more space to type our stuff, also when someone spams WTS in the local chat you see party search - item - in local chat as well, which prettymuch means the Trade channel changes are pretty useless now.

Seriously remove the Party search from the chat window and allow us more text characters in the party search, the only reason i really like the panel is because i can easily browse trough it, looking for items without having to scroll through the normal chat, or read super fast to catch an item i would like.

The map is AWESOME, just plain awesome, though for comparing to a 100% map it is a bit trickyer to see the places you still need to hug, but im sure most people will manage, I have 100% so that hasnt changed and i also still have the legendary cartographer title.

The party window update isnt bad, but i would prefer ajusting the size of it vertically, other than that its fine.

Also i havent got any issues regarding my interface, bad graphics or serious lag, and as far as DOA goes, i merely do a gloom farming build once or twice in a week so that hasnt affected me at all.

Cheers

This better not be a download of GWEN. Considering that I'd have bought GWEN and installed it off CD/DVD (in half the time), I don't see why I should be wasting my time downloading it now. Unless there's a GWEN preview event coming up. Please

Cause otherwise, not sure why the download is that size, not like they introduced any new areas like SF or something, just tweaked some things. Course, they could be preloading those bonus mission packs...

And after everything they've changed, I still don't know why they haven't increased the length allowed for text in the party window...

prob said but
error 7 when trying to visit AM districts from EU
new party window sucks imo i hate not having control over the size of it havent played pvp yet so will see what its like then.
WTS party search thing is ugly am guessing makes trade spam even more unbearable


There is a new option to auto-target npc's and items as opposed to just having auto target on or off (unless was in a previous update but didnt see it mentioned on wiki so figured today)
What does the new texture option actually do i havent really noticed much different either way.

I like the change to the Party Search, but A-Net really, really, really should've changed the number of characters allowed before implementing this type of change.

I'm going to wait for the dust to settle before I venture into Dist 1 of the major trading towns. Time to visit Ventari's Sell and the Auction part of this forum...
