People keep thinking the Boat is the only way to Cantha. If I remember correctly there are underground Asuran Gates and 200years of possible repair before Cantha is truly cut off from Tyria. I would think /guess that there would be an alternate route to and from Cantha other than just boat.

To say that just because there is no oversea route that Cantha is fully closed off is silly. If worse comes to worse hire the Dredge they dug their way to Cantha.

yeah factions was horrible, only ab is kinda cool, but still stinks that it's empty all the time, gotta wait ages for a game

Good way to think optimistic.

Most of my characters are from faction. I still have a few old chars from prophecies still but considering the fact that you level up much quicker in factions made it a favourite for me for making chars. I even deleted a few prophecies chars to make faction ones. That being said, I am too cheap to pay for new character slots but I've been sorely tempted at times.

in my guess cantha and elona will be introduced in an expansion/mini-expansion for guild wars 2 if not you can always sit on your couch cuddling yourself while repeating factions...nightfall....factions....nightfall

Prowlinger · Dec 14, 2007, 10:05 PM // 22:05

I loved Factions... well what can I say... I love all the GW Campaigns...

It was alittle cramped and confusing in the city areas... personally I prefer non linear open areas.

PvP Faction fighting isn't my thing... we are purely PvE in our mini guild.

KingKryton · Dec 14, 2007, 10:09 PM // 22:09

nightfall>factions>prophecies

or in terms of how much gold i made per game

factions:1mil+
nightfall:500K
prophecies:10k

AB is never empty

Its always Full thats the problem.

There are only 5 servers and about only 5 games can go on at a time.

So if a game is happening you cannot enter and it displays that orange notice.

Laff.

I wonder why it never occurs to people that the number of Kurzies and Luxons waiting for mission are typically not balanced, and if there's an undersupply of opponents, you need to wait in line to get a crack at them. Instead they keep repeating these rediculous theories.

Rexion · Dec 16, 2007, 10:24 PM // 22:24

I liked and disliked

Goods:
-Introduction to new proffesions
-Fast Leveling
-Cool environments
-Good villian/story

Bads:
-Locked Gates
-Fast Leveling (made the new players not understand their class as they leveled)
-Took too long for such small storyline

I've been on both sides, on the same day.

I've had a friend on one side, and me on the other

I counted 10 kurzick teams (not including mine, which would make 11...thats 44 people)

he counted 7 luxon teams (8 if you include his)

Thats more than enough to AB.

i've done this many times as well, seeing first hand, well over 15 full teams complaining about the wait. it has nothing to do with LACK of people if that's the case.

Factions is the only campaign I got Legendary Cartographer and Guardian on.

I <3 Factions, especially the Kurzies.

william1975 · Dec 17, 2007, 02:31 AM // 02:31

i liked factions i like ab and i still like runnign about in factions,

rewards for quests were better, and levelign was far quicker, gates were not too annoying.

only thing i disliked were the timed mission aspect with mastering.

i think that Cantha will be included in GW2 as an expansion.

I'm sure that Anet will not want to lose part of their lore.

ensoriki · Dec 17, 2007, 02:36 AM // 02:36

....
When Factions doesn't time missions

You either get something really easy like Gyala Hatchery
Or stupidly annoying without Heros
Eternal grove (can be done with pugs/guildies but ARGH!)

Moonlit Azure · Dec 17, 2007, 03:22 AM // 03:22

The storyline was meh, but the scenery, music, and overall feel were great.

Not to mention nice looking armors!

Made In Ascalon · Dec 17, 2007, 03:30 AM // 03:30

Factions was an iffy campain. I'm happy about a few things they tried out, like how they tried to prevent running, getting a reward for finishing every mission, and alliances. But so much was screwed up. The storyline was really bad and REALLY short, Shiro was such a terrible villain, AB is made of fail and AIDS, mission bonuses were unoriginal, etc. It's easily my least favorite campaign.
