For once i'm going to say aswell that it's very good job... Very fun mission , i enjoyed being able to go to pre-searing again, skills are nice...

However , i don't find it logic that this would last only 1 day. It probably required a lot of job to code the quest , make these looks , make video for GW2... This is by far the best update we've had for 2 years, and it would only be here for 1 day? i don't get it ....

I hope they keep it longer than today. All that hard work deserves to be kept a week or so.

BTW, just a word of warning. It may be obvious to many, but dying in this missions loses your survivor progress.

i know but i dont see how its april foolish. In my opnion something like turning into monsters is funny. but to each his own. xD i just wish the time they spent putting this stuff in was used on winds of change so it get out faster and done something small for april fools.

Loved the update, and based on previous years I certainly wasn't expecting something like this. Post-searing characters finally have the opportunity to go back to pre-searing Ascalon (and it was nice seeing how the post-searing map overlays with the pre-searing landscape). The Terminator references were good as well

^^this

I really enjoyed it, but on the other hand, it seems like wasted resources. If we get some good updates soon, I'll forgive them.

I dont think they 'wasted' anything---a LOT of this they can use for gw2. (my scream was more : play testing).

liked the skill updates though, those were very funny.

And what if there is? How does it hurt you? You don't have to pay for it, just like you don't have to pay for the several other micros in the store. Why do people even care what Anet chooses to sell? No monthly fees people, and OPTIONAL micro trans. It makes no sense for people to get their panties in a bunch over something that has zero effect on them.

@ Red dog, I've done it a couple of times, it is a really fun change of pace. I love it. I really, really, really want the shield skin!

Oh god no not a costume... I like all the costumes we have had but this would just be horrible...

I don't like this years aprils fool.... many did so yeah... it's the first time I really hate something anet did and they can't make everyone happy all the time so I'll live.
Just hope it wont stay too long and when it is gone it is really gone (no costumes or things like that)
