Do you have plans to add the Festival Hats NPC to the Guild Lord's list of purchaseable NPCs in Guild Halls?

ravensong · Jan 01, 2007, 11:59 PM // 23:59

Well,I agree with most questions about storage and auction house but it would be cool if there was a button (as Trade) to view other players gear (armor and weapon equipped) in outposts and explorable areas,or at least make weapons visible as equipped on belt or back!

Any plans with inventory changes like that?

chessyang · Jan 02, 2007, 02:25 AM // 02:25

hum.. most people seem to have asked the question i was thinking....

any changes/updated to Pre?

Storage and other trade improvements?

over all be cool just to see the team and chill w/ them. See how they setup there screens, keyboard and GUI when they play.

Anet, here is a set of questions I'll set forth for you to attempt to answer for us. For many of us, my self including, we love details and the story to people, places and things. So much of the three games currently playable have detail, but a lot of people, places and things get left out.

- Where and what are both Evennia, Shadow and others we played side-by-side with currently at? Will these two namely (or others suggestively *wink wink*) make other future appearances in any games? Evennia is the leader of the Shining Blade, will we see them again? Shouldn't Shadow be labeled as "Ascended" seeing as her pet, Carlotta, is a Spider and is only known to be captured after completing several missions in The Underworld? Edit: Also, speaking of Spiders - Why can't we get Moss Spiders from Pre-Searing Prophecies? Or, why is it that they aren't 'unlocked' after completion of the game? Moss Spiders are fun, lovable little buggers I would love to have as a pet!

- With the release of Factions (AKA continent known as Cantha) we discovered in the Manual that there are three demi-deities that the Luxons serve. They are known as the Three Queens; Alua, Elora, and Ione. Will we learn more of their history, how they became revered as gods? Also on touching with Factions - The Kuzricks and Luxons played a major roll in us as players. Will we see the dark beauty Danika zu Heltzer, Argo, Kuunie or any other key players?

- Thirdly..During this years Wintersday Event, we saw the Winter Dwarf. As far as I know, this is the only time a Dwarf has been in or around Elona, and we didn't even see them in Cantha! Will the Dwarfs play another key roll for us one day? Will we be able to play with them side by side or perhaps see a Dwarven Hero and learn more about the two known Dwarven Deities; The Great Dwarf and the Great Destroyer?

- Many of us are interested in the land where three of the five major gods called home. In the first chapter, we encountered former, undead, residents of Orr. Namely, we faced Vizier/Lich Lord through ought the game. We where introduced to many Orr-Continent residents, who often dropped their Orr Emblems. We seen the great weapon, and a few of us wielded during the missions, The Sceptre of Orr. In the latest playable chapter, we discover the the twin of the Sceptre, known as the Staff of the Mists. Might we be learning more of Orr in other chapters or from other characters in the game??

- Lastly, I hope is this! Menizes is a powerful force, Dhuum was presumed destroyed before Elona was revealed to us and is still unclear to us if Menzies, Balthazar's half brother, is indeed a god! Could that be cleared for us? Along with that, how is it that Dhuum still lives? How was it that Grenth managed to over throw the evil god of death? Was he sponsored by someone? Will we be encountering more of Dhuum and Menzies over the coming ages also? Are their other gods and goddesses, regardless of their 'ranking' that Tyrians pay homeage to?

I know, tons of questions, but all of us want to know to set some debates to rest!

Kay84 · Jan 02, 2007, 03:19 AM // 03:19

Are there any plans to introduce other playable races outside the human race?

Yeah, WHEN? I (and one million of more people) have a LOT of time waiting for that. It's too difficult to implement to game?

I see it as easy as the character creation screen but with only hair style and color.

Idiot · Jan 02, 2007, 10:43 AM // 10:43

could you perhaps add someone who can change your hairstyle for 100gold?

Chinson Windancer · Jan 02, 2007, 12:08 PM // 12:08

will you increase the Luxon and Kuzick faction upper bound as Bathazar one?
or make something benefits in PVE you can get through friend of " Luxon / Kuzick " title

First of all I think its great that someone from this site is invited to attend for a questions session.

Here are my questions which are probably been asked by a few others before, if so, my appologies.

1/ DoA. Is this area going to recieve any form of buff such as making it a playable area and not the hard stanced area it is now. Is the team size going to be increased to 12?.

(as a footnote to the above, I ahve to say that this area is getting more and more desserted by the minute. ANET made a superb game in Nightfall only to be spoilt by DoA)

2/ Storage. What plans do ANET have to improve storage facility?

(I have had to buy 2 extra slots to store stuff and armours of all my chars)

3/ Cartography Titles: Why does ANET make challenge missions count for this title?

Could anything be done about this?

4/ Lightbringer Ranks: Why was the afk farming allowed for so long?

5/ Sunspear Title. When will we be able to get to Sunspear Marshall in a legal manner rather than having to use some 'flaw' in an area like many people are doing.

6/ Leeching. Will ANET devise a function that if a person is leeching in a group the team, can have the leech kicked and the absence covered by a same profession hench?

7/ Guild Chat Font Colour. Could Anet change the Guild Chat Font Colour to another one, i.e. green clour being used does not stick out as much as the goldy alliance chat. The present green colour sometimes is hard to follow.

All for now

Bojevnik · Jan 02, 2007, 02:47 PM // 14:47

Didn't read whole thread so this may have been asked before.

Will something be done to prevent character loss (in case of account hack)?
Something like that u have ability to roll your account 24hours back. (Like its been done after rare material trader bug).

TheMarauder · Jan 02, 2007, 04:18 PM // 16:18

Storage: One specific area I'd like to see catered for is Dye Storage. Also, perhaps some additional storage avaiable as a Guild Hall add-on?

Inventory: Please can we have a Keyring to store all our keys on. It is *so* frustrating to get 30 mins into (say) The Deep and realise that you have plenty of the keys you need IN STORAGE!!! Not that it's ever happened to me you understand. Oh, no.

More solo quests, please!!!!

Now the Flameseeker trilogy is complete, will we be able to carry our existing toons forwards into the next adventure?

sumasage · Jan 02, 2007, 09:33 PM // 21:33

-When will storage/inventory increase? I dont mind paying a few bucks for it but plz dont rip us off.

-Will future chapters feature gun/canon type weapons? (plz dont, i like mid-evil style)

-For the auction house please make it so that the skin and stat of the item being sold visible (like the trade window we have now). When will we have it before Ch4?

-Will there be an update for heroes who reached Lv20 to share weapons? I dont have money to get decent weapons for all heroes across 8 characters

cush29 · Jan 02, 2007, 10:59 PM // 22:59

Chapter 1 & 2 you came out with great guide books
will there be a guide book for chapter 3

black_mamba · Jan 02, 2007, 11:08 PM // 23:08

Just some questions/suggestions:

1. When will storage have an upgrade?

2. Will there be chapters released every 6 months? and if there are how will anet keep up with all the skills and chapters?

3. Are there going to be small unique armor upgrades that correspond with their profession? exp: monks get halos. but only upgradable via quests that are eilte. Also adding a small window in the inventory section that shows or hides it.

4. UW armor?

5. Chapter 4/5: rumors have it that chpater 4 will be in a snowy area. and chapter 5 north of ascalon? But you probably wont be able to confirm that yet.

6. new rare crafting materials? that go with UW armor, equivalent to ectos and shards.

MoMan · Jan 02, 2007, 11:49 PM // 23:49

Just some random questions:

+ Will there ever be an auction house / more storage / everything everyone else said.

+ The Wurm concept was awesomly implemented in Nightfall, any plans to bring more mounts to the game (I'm thinking something sea or air based...)

+ Will we get to learn about / see more of fallen-gods and semi-gods, eg. Dhumm, Great Dwarf and his counterpart the Great Destroyer, the Luxon Gods, the Mursaat and their hidden city, etc.

+ Will the next chapter take place in a region connected to Tyria/Elona and/or Cantha

+ Continuing this, how is Anet planning on addressing the problem of the continuous decrease of the number of players per outposts as the number of these increases, with each expansion to the series.

+ Is there gonna be a mac/linux version (probably not as its directx based but had to ask)

+ For the love of God, what happened to Gwen!!!

Thx alot Anet, I thoroughly enjoyed the previous chapters and hope you keep up the good work!

Lonk · Jan 02, 2007, 11:55 PM // 23:55

Was Gwen created by the same person or persons whom created the "Chat Gem" for Diablo 2?

Ok silly question, but on a more serious note, will Gwen and/or her quest items ultimately serve some purpose in the near future, and will we be required to own several chapters to see the "end" of this quest?

one more random question, a bit lore related, in Tyria we saw several of the Bloodstones, of which there are 5 if i remember total, will we ever see the rest of them and will they play a part in the future of Guild Wars?

LL ShadowIX LL · Jan 03, 2007, 03:24 AM // 03:24

My Question: sorry if this has been asked somewhere: could we have a new ranged class with new weapons, i mean, ranger is all well and good, but it totally dominates the ranged part, the paragon was ok, but is a much better support character than actuall ranged combat character, plus bows are much cooler. I think there should be a ranged class that utilizes multiple types of weapons (think warrior), has attack skills (mainly) and a lot less buffs/traps/preps....maybe use crossbows, regular bows and throwing knives/daggers. then the primary stat could be someting like: precision:: for each rank of precision you have an additional X% chance to ignore blindness/evasion/dodge/block, sorry that that was so long, its just been bugging me

Knifex4 · Jan 03, 2007, 05:47 AM // 05:47

Will Anet enable Guild Wars to utilize multiple threads to reduce processor core loads like WoW and other games do? (unless it already does.. >> << )

Sophitia Leafblade · Jan 03, 2007, 12:33 PM // 12:33

Ok theres the obvous questions: Storage? Gwen and her items? emotes? stylists? etc.

and theres the not so obvious questions:

Will there every be a purpose to clay bricks and bricks of mud that are used/made by crafters?

Will u ever allow us to unlock old event hats if we were unable to atend them?

Why do u like to kill off a main storyline character every campaign: Rurik, Togo, Koromir, ?

Will u ever improve tryia mission rewards to match Factions and Nightfall & increase the number of skill quests in Cantha and Elona (especially this, since its the biggest money sink after FoW armour and it gets worse each campaign)

and lastly will there ever be any kind of rewards for replaying missions. If u spend alot of time helping people out with things uve already done, u gain nothing for ur own char, other than xp and drops (which are often not worth very much) Anet is clearly against farming (or atleast large amounts of it) wouldnt it not make sence to promote more questing instead while still allowing people a sensible income.

getalifebud · Jan 03, 2007, 01:45 PM // 13:45

Will you ever take steps to making prophecies elites easier to gain. Some elites can be very hard to track down, such as feast of corruption, or punishing shot. These are either way out of the way for prophecies players (feast of corruption) or difficult to get to for factions characters, I don't want to complete prophecies again on my ranger and my warrior, just for punishing shot and eviscerate.
