Alright, shoot number one-

1. I would like to see some kind of sport element added in. I keep seeing warriors looking like linemen, and the more i see a ranger, the more i think
"Did he just throw the ball to the wrong team?" I don't really care what sort of sport element could be added in(soccer is more global i think), but i would really like to see a variety to a game where expansions are the form of money. I of course know that they will be "doubling the size of the game" with their expansions, but i of course see lots of pve content, meaning yes... lots of it will be quests and missions (which i enjoy.... but only once...), so i want to see something that can bring me back over and over again(since sometimes pvp can just get... "Ah, i dont want to do this right now!". Each team could have different "positions" to fill in. And personaly, i think it could add to different skill useage, other then the whole "we want to be defensive"... you'll be on the move, and a lot of teams will be using different techniques... When was the last time you saw charge used? (henchmen are the only ones who would waste time into charge that i know of)

Shooting number 2

2. Do you like playing chess or checkers? Well, i would like to see this sort of mini-game place in as well. I'm seeing a big board, placeable henchmen for leavers (of the correct class - maybe even a duplicate of the leaver)... (Remember, i'm talking expansion sized games, not the little free-be's). And i'm seeing this as a "guild only" game... as it would need co-ordination and teamwork... "I want to go!" - "No, i want to go"... i'm not too sure now of how to make the games go faster, but this idea was also a quickie and a "throw in", as i havent put in a lot of thought into the dynamics. Could be any sort of made up game-board look-a-like.

Shooting number 3

3. I would like to see a "click-it" pvp area on the map, where i can go for either "king of the hill" - "capture the relic" - "old fort assault map"(beta people may remember). and perhaps add in the whole "enter mission" with random people... Four players only? Five? Six?, i guess it would be up to the testing of it, and how well random can go for things like this...

Shooting number 4

4. Casino's were banned for a "just" reason. But, it got me to thinking... i stop playing this game every now and then to play other things like "Texas hold-em" or "five card stud"... and well... if the economy sticks around, i would like to see mission area's where you have the whole "enter mission" and poof, you're at a table of other players, betting your in-game gold. I don't know if many other people are really fans of this sort of thing, but i know idea's always look best to the person giving them... Just to add, i think the casino areas should have an added fee of gold to enter into the mission, like the underworld... since you'll be betting and having a chance to win some nice gold, perhaps they can have its own tournament thing... maybe a little scoreboard with top rank players from #1-10 in the mission area... I should also add that there should be a "limit" to the top amount of gold you can bring in...

Perhaps some other time i'll think of more ideas and edit this to add them. But for now, i think that's enough for discussion / changes. Or just people to flame my ideas and tell me they suck...

definitely needs to be some more diversion from the daily grind. These would nice alternatives for when you're not finding good groups for a mission.

Monster Arena. Mobs of monsters fight it out amongst each other and players either get to simply watch the mobs fight it out or bet gp on a winner (odds calculated based on monster level, strengths, etc.). Look ANet... We have several combinations of mobs already. We have different monster levels. There's probably space for something like this somewhere in the world. At least think about it?

I'm telling you - this would be a HIT. I'd put this arena in the middle of some explorable zone. (IE. make it unzoneable so people have to actually form a party and travel there every time. Makes it feel like an event when going to the monster arena instead of just clicking on it.)
