Oh, and botters doing Dragon Arena

Lets be honest, botters in DA suck balls, the bots work in theory, dodge if you see projectile incoming, but they suck when you actually play vs them. And the other botters who click on player1, then hit space, player 2, then hit space, player 3, then hit space, etc etc suck even more.

I guess the whole real world should stop having annual holidays as they are just so repetitive. I think the whole "I'm cool, so I'm bored" attitude just points up your immaturity.
I happen to enjoy the GW holidays, as do the majority of the players.

Darkness at Kaitan and other quests are great to farm. I always look forward to farming during this festival, during specific quests.

I enjoy the Dragon Festival and Rollerbeetle racing. As I'm currently living with my GF and she loves kart based computer games, I'm showing her Rollerbeetle racing, and she's going to have a go. I'm letting her collect my victory tokens for me, so in essence she's my bot! Hehe.

Eventually you'll come at point where you'll be fed up with game. You'll have shitload of consumables , money, titles and whatnot. And at the end you won't even play the game xcept for occasional bounty, update and afk on rings. Then you'll lurk forum just for some lulz and discuss game while in background you're actually waiting for Dota match to start. Then you'll be cool and bored like rest of us. You don't have to believe me, i didn't believed myself when some1 told me this.

He's right seriously, it's not whining it's just the dam truth. If you're happy with mediocrity that's a different story. After 3 years of repitition and false pretenses (ie saying there's a new mask when there isn't) it's perfectly fine to point out there's no real incentive anymore.

This kind of stuff is only for new players or those who like trolling forums with their own sig/title and afk in kamadam all day to show off their glowy hands.

It's all fine and dandy that you and the OP (troll) have played GW to the point of you burning out, but really that's besides the point.

It's an annual event... it's there every year at this time, and much like Christmas and your birthday it's pretty much the same again so big deal you know you don't have to participate if you don't feel like it.

No kidding. The OP should have just titled this "I'm bored with festivals" and included all of them to save a pinch of server space.

R_Frost · Jun 29, 2010, 04:34 PM // 16:34

only time i farm my sweets. ill load up 2 computers, take the 12 characters on my main account through the quests while piggy backing the 9 characters i have on a secondary account. load up on the rewards and trade in for my sweet tooth title. once done with the quests, that will probably be all i will do till the last day then afk both accounts for the rewards at the end. not sure if ill afk the rings, dont have enough gold ATM to farm another level in the title track.

Too bad Factions is so constricting. Otherwise, you could keep rerolling characters over and over.

Gli · Jun 29, 2010, 05:07 PM // 17:07

This will be the first Dragon Festival that won't have me in the 9 rings around the clock. That's going to be weird.

Lithril Ashwalker · Jun 29, 2010, 05:14 PM // 17:14

id liek the old dragon masks back or some old hats that some of us missed :/...liek a hat pack in the igS...get all the hats for a price

I've been playing this game since Feb 2006. I have 12 characters who keep me fairly busy, some haven't finished campaigns yet. I don't find myself bored or feel like there is nothing left to do. I also don't feel the need to rush through everything without enjoying it. It helps to take your time and not focus on the finish more than the journey.

I believe you are confusing this mask issue with the Canthan New Year which has the same mask every year. The Dragon Festival has had a different one every year.

Dragon Mask - 2006
Demon Mask - 2007
Grasping Mask - 2008
Imperial Dragon Mask - 2009

Yes , this festival will be a copypaste of previous years : same epic lags , same crap mini games , same dragon arena luck , same rollerbeetle random ram blast spam , same mask ( ... ) , and more .

I would like to get costume brawl on these events, since it's by far the most popular event game , and aswell the one where you don't need much luck to win ( although afk/leaves do count ) . However , what i like in this event is , since botters were banned , we'll be able to see if rollerbeetle ladder will remain the same ( 10 times the same guys , from same guilds ( cough [rain] ) )

**cosyfiep** · Jun 29, 2010, 05:45 PM // 17:45

I LIKE the festivals....they change the decorations in some places....I LIKE to see the decorations (yes I like xmas decorations too even though I have seen all of mine dozens of times, I STILL like to look at them--never bored me).

I am looking forward to this festival....even if I wont get to play much, at least I will get to see the decorations with my monk

and if you DONT like the festival---DONT go to canthan this weekend, problem solved.

Eragon Zarroc · Jun 29, 2010, 06:05 PM // 18:05

rawr! time to go fail at some rollerbettle racing

It is a new mask, read the site. It says new mask many times.

But I do agree, they could make costume brawl in more events. It's so fun, plus it's the best way to get gamer points (for me atleast, I get bored of DA after 3 games)
