Guild Wars 2

Sounds like TERA's combat system?

Been gone a awhile got into a few games. As I see below and in-game a lot of people think its the same as a FPS I stick to my statement. I guess that is community opinion I have been single boxing it a little and do not think its anything like any shooter I ever played(Its not like in GW2 I run around pumping shells into corners I know people commonly camp) I am not hiding behind a rock to shoot someone in the head. Anyone who goes head on in CoD was not a very good FPS player. I also can't kill 5 people in 2 seconds on GW2 :P., Do not forget the double/triple kills with one bullet.

Well should we compare it to halo then? If you stand still you get killed. If you roll you miss bullets. If you hit V you dodge. The only class that moving out of the way wont matter are the ranged classes. Which even those you can roll out of damage.

The OP classes are starting to shine. It will be interesting to see what happens when all chars are in 80 gear.

I am starting to wonder about multiboxing this game. I might do some research into it. It will be extremely difficult due to mechanics, but i think it would be worth a couple eles.

i think ill be setting up a second account to test it, i needed to get a feel for how some of the other classes played to find the best suitable companion to my Mesmer main. I think a Ranger (or Elementalist) might be the key.

I was able to play a ranger to about 6 really fast last night to get an idea of its ranged-ness. I just really need to see how the movement is going to work. The Assisting functions will work ok, but the follow may get me in the end, i do move around a lot and randomly.

Only real benefit i see from a second account resource wise is being able to mail stuff back and forth for storage, since your unable to mail things to yourself.

Edit: i think i should try an engineer as well, i think they may be useful for totems-like abilities.

You may be able to get it to work in areas that are clutter heavy by using the walls and whatnot to stack your toons back up. I was really looking forward to this game being box-able, but once again my hopes have been dashed.

[candlebox]

Yeah its still an awesome game though. I got the boxitis, but really don't want to leave GW2.

I agree with the toon stacking though at objectives. A buffing class is about all that you will benefit from. Its not like you have to target things though, the game automatically targets for you.

I am enjoying my necro for the moment, but we will see where that goes.

Btw Meeo im on Northern Snowpeaks since they were dominating the SoS and that RP server on the wvw map.

Yeah i think all my friends are planning on leaving SoS for the same reason...

I really can't explain it, but i'm almost ready to quit this game. I've grinded out about 40 levels and i'm just not enjoying it. Sad, because on paper it seems awesome. In game it is too, but then that wears off and i'm ready to log. I mowed the lawn early this week! Who does that?!

I am kind at that point right now, 45 with mesmer and the grind is showing, like any other game except i cant box this one. Its still a great pve game, WvWvW is okay. I hope this all gets better in the long run, ill probably get to 80 eventually but i wont rush it like i usually do on a normal mmo.

[candlebox]

haha i havent leveled at all really...no point when you can pvp with the premade guys

you are getting stomped in WvW as well. The only reason to level is for the WvW pvp.
