hmmm.......but now i think about it

observer mode is bad.....ppl will steal ppl's builds

XtrmEend · Dec 22, 2005, 08:32 AM // 08:32

Why cant i go into observer mod, when I press observe it loads the underworld for a second staying at 0%, then swiches to loading the map I was standing in when pressing observe.

Unlucky guys! It's morning here in Europe. Meanwhile, over in America, you're in bed...*laugh*

Merry Madrigal · Dec 22, 2005, 08:34 AM // 08:34

I am having the same problem.

It goes briefly to Tombs, then boots me back to my zone.

I am not seeing anything.

snapp · Dec 22, 2005, 08:38 AM // 08:38

some really nice additions, I just watched two matches it's a lot of fun.

Merry Madrigal · Dec 22, 2005, 08:41 AM // 08:41

OK NOW I got on.

Absolutely amazing. Coolest thing ever.

GW has just become a new game.

I watched a team with 4 henchies own a real team.

if you're being sent back to tombs, then the match is already over :/

Ahaha. It's 7:45pm here, looks like there will be a fun night to come ^^

XtrmEend · Dec 22, 2005, 08:50 AM // 08:50

Luckely im from europe, also it works now, this is great !

Merry Madrigal · Dec 22, 2005, 09:02 AM // 09:02

It's a bit buggy though.

I have received the "operation could not be completed" message a few times, and the game crashes.

That never happens usually.

Truly a revolutionary advance though. It's like a whole new game now.

The matches will generally already be over by the time you start watching them. This problem is actually due to the listing showing up before it's ready to be watched. I had it happen a few times trying to watch the same match (4th one that popped up overall I think). I waited a bit and was able to watch it fine.

OM really is quite nice. Very impressed anet--it almost totally erased the negativity of an entire day spent monking for PUGs trying to get a single IDS (which I intend to actually use, not sell), and seeing dozens drop, but not a single one for me :|

If you enter Observer mode and get kicked back to the town you were in the fight just ended. Wait a second and there'll be another.

ANet... awesome. Amazing. Observer mode will help so much in improving my guild's ability to do... well anything PvP related. It looks great and the controls are awesome.

The fact that I have yet to see a complaint is huge.

Awesome awesome awesome job.

Amadei · Dec 22, 2005, 09:05 AM // 09:05

Okay, I am LOVING the observer mode <3. So awesome. Great job, ANet!

Currently as of the timeof this post. There is still no actual in game Christmas items, no holiday quests found, but many storytellers of Winterday lore.

Sounds as if Dwayna is the RP Santa Claus. Dwayna Clause making an appearance Christmas Eve !?? i want my Candy Cane weapons! lol... Merry Christmas all. make sure to post lots of screenies of the big day, as i wont be there! THANX!!!

Racthoh · Dec 22, 2005, 09:13 AM // 09:13

Just got a second update... any speculations?

reape havok · Dec 22, 2005, 09:14 AM // 09:14

Yay, il be able to watch people dieing insteaed of me :P

Queenie · Dec 22, 2005, 09:20 AM // 09:20

...I swear I didn't put them there!

angshuman · Dec 22, 2005, 09:20 AM // 09:20

I think they fixed the bug where matches that were already over were appearing in your Observation Menu and you got kicked back to town if you selected those.

Edit: ever since the second update, I haven't seen even a single ongoing match in the Observer Mode list. Could be normal, though, since only high-ranked Guild matches are shown.
