I think they should add some new classes. For example add the a class of Orcs Or Demons Or Monsters. Give the players more of a selection. Personanly i love to be an orc. It would make the game more fun. who else thinks we should have orcs and demons as a new class? I do!

That would be nice. But, they'd have to revamp a lot of things in the game. Like, how would they be incorporated into the story? Or do they have their own Pre Searing part of the game, and where would they start?

Dude All They Have to do is make a mode or expansion pack. Add a little story like the orcs came from the north ladididida. Make a quick story up or ill even think up the story if they want. Theres so many ways u can make it work. Like make the demons get woken up and climb from under the earth from hell.

. . . lol

Well, you see, when you make a game's storyline, you try to make one that ISN'T crappy.

Those races simpy would not fit in the storyline nor the setting of the game. Demons? Why are demons being welcomed into Lion's Arch? Why would an Orc be a "chosen"? Why would a Monster help the Shining Blade? Basicaly, you want them to start a whole new storyline when their first one isn't even complete?

IM NOT SAYING THAT CRAP. And i wasn;t maing up a story there. Like WoW The orcs work with the humans. Screw the dum legit story. We can break rules and let humans be friends with orcs why not? I love orcs and it would be cool. Why not make the orcs come from a majic portal like in WarCraft II? Use imagination!

With GW, they try to be original as possible (or at least that was my impression) and by using a race and a storyline and making GW a mirror of the Warcraft series is not what I think NCSoft was going for. If you want a game that has the same premise as that in Warcraft...then play World of Warcraft.

TeamEllis · Jul 27, 2005, 01:18 AM // 01:18

Naw lol World of WarCraft To Expensive alirhgt you guys win no new races!

TheGreatBoo · Jul 27, 2005, 01:21 AM // 01:21

I'm sure that they're willing to add new races and classes. The only problem with that is balancing and altering an amazing amount of the game. I think that anet has or is considering this though.

Vilaptca · Jul 27, 2005, 02:44 AM // 02:44

I'd only like to see races that are already available in the game. Dwarves, Dark Dwarves(Stone Summit), Charr, Forgotten, Centaurs, etc...

What I don't want them to do, is add some new race that isn't already in the game. Are we really supposed to believe that we've never seen this race before. I would actually like to be a Charr, reading the manual, everything that I've mentioned is actually a race in the world and not just a monster. It would be nice to see them as playable characters or maybe you could enter their towns later like we can with dwarves.

Fox Reeveheart · Jul 27, 2005, 03:01 AM // 03:01

Have any read the guildwars site before the game came out?

They are already planning on making new races for the expansion pack.

I am more than sure dwarves will probably be the next option, I'm not a dwarf lover but it would be nice to have some variety.

I wanna see like....snake people like the forgotten ones

or yuan ti >>

or maybe umm... BAT PEOPLE!....

or maybe get WOTC license and throw in some aasimar and tieflings!

But more than likely the expansion will at LEAST have dwarves

Garrett · Jul 27, 2005, 03:15 AM // 03:15

No, they won't put cliche fantasy bilge into this game.(Orcs and cool and all it's just that if you want to make something distinct you don't compromise)

the bloodthirst · Jul 27, 2005, 04:50 AM // 04:50

i guess you guys dont read much. The expansions will feature new races and classes. this is just the first chapter of many. dont expect all that just yet. sure there are some stuff i would like to see improved but, this is one thing i know will be improved in the expansion.

Seems like the most logical option. It's original, already in the game, and the game doesn't have to change alot to implement them.

Iceciro · Jul 27, 2005, 06:25 AM // 06:25

Yeah, but playing as a Charr, you would have another whole storyline... sounds like expo pack material to me.

On the subject, a bit of thought - ever notice the only dual classing characters are the Humans? Perhaps that is something which will later not be a character normality, but an advantage of the humans - humans dual-class, other races get unique skills?

Just a brain thought... but I'd love to play a Charr boss.
(wonder if I'd have to have an aura then.)

I like this idea. I wouldn't want to be something that isn't already in the world. Although it seems that all the enemy races mentioned are male. I haven't seen a female enemy among the Centaurs, Stone Summit, Charr or any that I can think of. A-Net will have some work to do to make some female characters for us to choose from.

Because taking the ideas from all the other games is "very" imaginative.

I think new races is unneccessary. I'd prefer new clothes.

DIVA!

How about both. Although if you get new races you will certainly get new clothes.

No, theirs subtle differences in the sexes. It's just hard to tell, because they're all so damn ugly haha.

And anet mentioned that they're bringing in new clothes and hair styles didn't they?

Mesmer1287 · Jul 28, 2005, 02:31 AM // 02:31

I take it none of you have ever played EverQuest. 7 expansions total with most having new races, classes and zones. Don't worry.

This game has only been out for three months... stop rushing it.

(it would be nice to be Elves and halflings)

Ehecatzin FlyingCrab · Jul 28, 2005, 04:50 AM // 04:50

definitevely not Orcs, Elves, drows, or other super cliche race please!!

One of the things I liked from Anet is that they didnt do the classical stereotipycal races from always. Instead they took the time to create or recreate races of their own. Dwarves are classic wranted, but they've always been in the shadow of Elves and Orcs, so GW dwarves are cool ^^, I'd rather play as a centaur, Charr or Dwarve than a Elf/Orc. I believe Anet said they will be adding more races in the future, I hope they stay in the GW universe, and dont start using cliches.
