I wish Necromancer pets weren't so squishy. They die like every fight and need a long time to resummon. I don't even use any of my minions anymore. Shame, because that's kinda the point of the class.

What level is your necro?

 

[Drkirby]

Well, I got an invite from the AMRS guild, which seems to have Retro and Ferny in it, but I don't know, they won't talk to me now. I feel like I am being conned.

 

[Einbroch]

23

 

[Kimaka]

Anyone else FPS just tanked with the new patch? Tried logging out and back in and it still is worse even in the regular server.

Edit: Nevermind, found the issue.

 

[AppleSmack]

Anyone else gotten banned? I got a 3-day suspension for saying "fuck you guys" in /say next to people doing that XP exploit.

Getting banned for swearing is the dumbest bullshit ever. Especially when there is a chat filter.

 

[arimanius]

So after the update I went to log in and decided to build a new character. When I went to character creation, it went to a black screen and nothing after that. Can someone try this and see if it does the same for you?

Same. They borked character creation. lol

 

[Ferny]

Well, I got an invite from the AMRS guild, which seems to have Retro and Ferny in it, but I don't know, they won't talk to me now. I feel like I am being conned.

Retro is trying to invite but it doesn't seem to work and Im in a limbo with the GAF guild. Trust me man we are trying.

 

[itsnervedamage]

Hey, it looks like the guild stuff isn't fixed yet?
What's the best way to party up right now? I sort of have no idea what I'm doing - itsnervedamage.3071

It's standard for any MMO. Just don't do it unless only friends can read it.

Sheeeeet, I'm fuck then.

You should see the policies on names and the bans they're tossing for those. It's a little bit crazy.

[j-wood]

When guild invites are working can I get an invite to the GAF guild? My char name is phoenixus

Also quite standard MMO fare. Actually I think that might be less strict than WoW's naming policy (which isn't enforced at all).

Nothing that relates to historical figures? wtf? So like, Marco Polo would be illegal? Columbus? Alexander? Nero? yeah right.

 

[Tawney Bomb]

So my thief named Shaquielle O Neal could get me banned? Fuck.

 

[Bsigg12]

I think that's why I'm so surprised by it. They're legitimately enforcing this so a couple of people I had met sent me a message saying they were banned. 1 because his name was Obama and the other because his name was PinV, which I find ridiculous for a ban.

 

[Psychoward]

2 more hours until the east coast poor people parade.

 

[yggdrasill]

Is anyone crashing to Desktop or have their computer reboot? I don't have any part overclocked. My Q6600 reached 51 C and my 260 216 reached 69 C. Seem to be acceptable. I'm also using the latest official drivers. Maybe I should use the latest beta drivers?

nope. arenanet could be held liable and be sued

Please tell me he's an Asura....

WoW allows you to change and doesn't ban you without the chance to change it first.

 

[Tawney Bomb]

Sadly, no

 

[Smiley90]

Why? I understan offensive stuff or usernames that make fun of historical figures, but just names that work with historical figures? What's possibly wrong about that oO

 

[Bsigg12]

Sadly, no

Well, I got my hopes up for a mini Shaq thief. I do like the name though, hopefully it doesn't get reported.

 

[cheststrongwell]

Now they just need to add relaxing fishing.

 

[arimanius]

I expect another patch ASAP or there's going to be a ton of screaming. Last patch looks like it broke character creation. Bad timing. lol

 

[XANDER CAGE]

Sorry if anyone's already asked this, but if I purchase it now, will I be able to play at midnight (PST, I'd assume) or does it "launch" at 10AM tomorrow or so for people not in the early start?

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

Curious how the next 24 hours (and this weekend) will go. This has all gone amazingly smooth for an MMO launch. Better than the Diablo 3 launch for me as I've had zero problems outside of not being able to join the Gaf guild.

 

[diffusionx]

So many disconnects and still no trading post. =(

Noob question - how the hell do I leave a SPVP game?

 

[XEROWUN]

the 3 day headstart started at midnight(EST i think?), i would think the game would do the same

 

[Ferny]

It looks like they fixed it quick.

 

[arimanius]

Yea. I can create guys again as well. Must of been server side.

playing gw1 while waiting for the flood gates to be open for peasants.

... or I would be but I've been downloading lion's arch for over 30 mins and plenty left to go. (never played on this computer and I have all xpacs. Gonna be painful)

 

[Snapshot King]

Anybody know if they've acknowledged that the game doesn't run so great and are working on continuing to improve performance?

 

[Dead Prince]

new build lol.

 

[Tawney Bomb]

Another new build!

 

[Outdoor Miner]

Cant wait to hop on tomorrow. Oh wait I work all day and have class at night. :/ :/ :/

 

[etiolate]

I am seriously considering a gaming mouse at this point. I have my keybinds and all, but those F Key skills are making me want more buttons. I also feel its ineffective to overload 95% of my input to one hand and a few fingers. This is especially an issue with how important movement is in GW2.

I gripped a few gaming mice to get a sense of feel. Right now, the Logitech G600 has a clear edge over others, with maybe the G500 behind it.

 

[Drkirby]

Maybe this is the one that will fix the guild stuff!

 

[Tawney Bomb]

Maybe this is the one that will fix the guild stuff!

We're all hoping. So jealous seeing other people in the guild running around. =(

 

[DeliciousDoc]

green man gaming download is up. No keys yet though. I already got the client bleh.

 

[Goodacre0081]

has anyone tried to invite since the new build went out?

 

[vaelic]

Anybody know if they've acknowledged that the game doesn't run so great and are working on continuing to improve performance?

huh? runs perfectly fine

 

[KoruptData]

What's your weapon loadout? Dual daggers?

Pistol/Dagger + Dagger/Dagger

Where can you d/l the client before registering? I would like to do this overnight.

 

[Nemesis121]

A new build of build wars is available....

You've still got another 4.5 hours left to wait on this dude. Release is midnight PST.

 

[Orayn]

No success in logging in since the last build... I did finish an event just in time, though!

EDIT: Ah, it was all of three minutes of not-logging-in-ness.

EDIT EDIT: Or not.

EDIT EDIT EDIT: There we go.

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

new build lol.

I was at the end of the catacombs when it reset
