Any new Guild Wars Beyond content coming soon? - Guild Wars Forums

Smith23 · Jul 27, 2010, 12:08 AM // 00:08

I was honestly hoping that Anet wasn't going to do this with the content after the War in Kyrta.

"Take a day to rest, and then we'll start organizing search parties"

That's one of the things Gwen says in the last new content update. Well it's been a day and then some. I don't expect Anet to release content every other day but I don't see any "new" missions becoming available anytime soon or at least until Gwen finds Lieutenant Thackeray and the establishing of Ebonhawke begins, so maybe a new dialogue update might be nice.

On a different note I see the Charr again becoming the next big enemy in the Guild Wars Beyond content. Good chance new Charr will be added. I just hope Anet listened to the players so if my guess is right they aren't as stupidly overpowered as the new White Mantle was and the Jade Cloak where. I also hope if something like I said came true they don't give more than one new profession a hard resurrection skill.

Ok i dont give a shit about how long they are taking for new content since they are working on gw2 and i am grateful for any, but i had to lol at the you saying the new mobsare overpowered.

yes they are strong, but they are easily defeated with heroes that dont run some pvx bullshit, and some careful planning. Im glad that they made the mobs powerful, this game was getting to easy. If you cant beat em, then you are simply no good at this game.

Nothing to do with the thread title i know, but i just had to post this.

The WiK content is essentially end-game content, and end-game content is supposed to be hard. Maybe you should go back to playing your Shadow Form assassin and sucking your thumb.

Johny bravo · Jul 27, 2010, 02:32 AM // 02:32

Its funny how people complain there is no new content and that the current stuff is to easy; then we get content and people complain it is too hard.

Especially when the new stuff was not that hard. People just like to whine, and for the most part it's funny.

As they just had a change in Live Team leadership, I imagine they have a lot of meetings going on to discuss focus and timing. They will release new content when it's ready, just like any other time.

And I agree with the posters, while the content was harder than normal, I totally enjoyed it. You couldn't breeze through it with your H/H; it took planning and often another real player to supply three more heroes. Please give us more of the same.

i just wanna say it wasnt end game to some of us. Some of us(like me) triggered WiK when we had no intention of doing it and essentially screwed ourselves over by not being able to do it.

So yes, the content was hard and it was a challenge, and for that it was really great. But it didnt take much to set in motion if u didnt wanna do it(like if u didnt have acess to heros through nf or eotn or something like that.)

so i agree the content was fun and i hope they add more soon, but maybe make it in a way so if u dont want to do it, you dont accidentally trigger it and screw over the beginers or ppl that simpley dont wanna do it.

To participate in the War in Kryta event, your character needs to complete either Prophecies or Eye of the North...

That defines end game content right there. I took a break from GW, but so far WiK is C-Space with the old sabway builds.

I don't anticipate any new content on this scale for at least 6-12 months, but that's pure speculation as there is really no data.

then how come my character(my ele) can participate in WiK when it hasnt completed proph? i mean if i didnt have an alt to just sit there so WiK mobs wouldn't spawn id be kinda mad @ WiK.

So idk.. it doesnt seem end game content when ive beaten proph on 1 charr a long time ago so wik mobs spawn for all my other other chars that arent that great.

Idk jsut saying it was great content when i wanted to do it.. but outside of that.. it just became a neussiance.

You might be unclear on the concept. WiK content spawns IF(Character beat Proph OR Character beat EotN)

It's not that you had a single character beat prophecies ages ago, it's that you're probably rolling chars that have eotn beaten. Can't really blame you, just about all my EotN-era characters beat that campaign first.

I will concede the fact that WiK is kind of a pain under certain circumstances. Getting a WiK character to ToA on short notice can massively suck, but overall it's still nice to have a challenge in proph again.

Benderama · Jul 27, 2010, 07:12 AM // 07:12

well the next content will be based around creating ebonhawke? (mabe we'll get a nice happy mission in which we just have to build it?)
/agree on the OP enemies.
they aren't themselves overpowered, but in the environment nm henchmen are level12-15 so you'd have to go HM for lvl 20 hench. and then again you only have 6 party members.

at least if they have something like this in ascalon enemies will have to be softened up a bit, since we only get 4 people in a party. though it'll be a great way to draw players back into an early game area.

just in the next piece of content i hope they get rid of the *must have eotn and prophecies*. why let proph only players/accounts get half ay and then not let them go any further? really quite boring, next time just let all people that can access the area (and have completed campaign e.t.c.) access the content. and please don't make the completion of WiK a requirement D;!
maybe we'll get something at halloween again, or just after? the Wik started mainly around the anniversary.

Doc Zenith · Jul 27, 2010, 11:39 AM // 11:39

For the OP: I dont know if you are saying that you find the White mantle in NM overpovered..because if you do,this propably isn't the right content for you to play with in the first place.

Anyway i agree with the ppl above that Wik was lot of fun and gave some challenges here and there but once you knew how to counter the mobs its np.

So..for the new possible Gulld wars beyond content..keep atleast the HM right at the same level with Wik content and ignore all the whiners thank you.

*Darcy* · Jul 27, 2010, 11:43 AM // 11:43

Through comments by Linsey a few months ago and John in his greeting speech, it looks like we will see Adelbern's solution to beat the charr, the founding of Ebonhawke, and what happened in Cantha and Elona. I don't think it will be six months before we see new content, but they don't necessarily have to cover all that before the release of GW2. GW1 is not going to disappear on release day.

Agar · Jul 27, 2010, 01:50 PM // 13:50

I hope they will keep the weekly small updates with the ocasional break for events and skill changes.

Yup, that's right but, if GW:Beyond is meant to bridge the two games, it makes sense to have all the content developed before the sequel is launched.

Wow it's surprising how some people are allowed to become a monitor of the site. At least you shown any new people wanting to become one you can just be a pure asshole.

But what he's telling you is the truth. The WiK content is not impossible, not even hard. It's CHALLENGING, and I don't know about you, but I sure as hell love myself a challenge. Learn to play better please and then complain how hard stuff is. Thanks.

Good for you if you didn't think it was hard. I wasn't the only player who thought the new enemies where overpowered. Learn to play better? Sorry if I don't take the time to figure out what skills and builds would do best for a certain area like some people do. For the record I never used an assassin. After 2 and a half years I've only used just 1 character which was an elementalist.

What I said about Shayne Hawke was he may have told the truth that it wasn't hard for him and end game content is going to be hard but that's all he had to say. He didn't have to become an asshole knowing he can hide behind his "Moderator" title and not expect any backlash. I just expect forum monitors to show a little bit of maturity.

The WiK content is likely the roughest thing to be in the PvE scene in a long time. However, when you consider the tools available to common PvE players today, I would not consider what has been brought to the table to be overpowered.

If you don't want to take the time to plan accordingly for the challenge ahead, then too bad, end game content is not for you. You're a visitor of this forum, which means you have access to the PvE forum and subforums where you can find advice on making better builds and tackling this level of content, and the wiki can also give you some tips. Your guild and alliance members should also be willing to help you, if you're a part of one. There are resources available in many places, and it's not our problem if you choose not to utilize them.

I recommend you branch out. Maybe it's just your preference to stick to elementalist, but this is really not a game where you need to limit yourself to one class.

I loved the WiK part, I thought 99% of it was great. The only thing I didnt like was the last bit of temple of intorable. I dont mind lots of enemies but not endless streams of them. None of the enemies are overpowered, and it was nice to see people pugging in LA. I loved that part, except when one guy was just leeching his way through.

In the dialogue in EOTN they are talking about the giant bassin, wouldnt it be great if that part of the game gets available? This wont happen ok because they dont have time for such a huge adjustement, but it would be awesome.
