Spurnshadow.3678 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Better class balance in PvP and WvW requiring a total overhaul of their condi system, and I mean really put in the work. New WvW map that isn't crap on release and needs to be fixed over the course of the next 6 months. Having a new system that balances WvW servers across different time zones. I've put in suggestions for that as have others over the years. New PvP maps and modes. Don't really care too much about PvE, but having new annual things, or at least different stuff than the same wintersday and halloween thing would be nice. I also liked the living world actually being living and changing the content permanently rather than all this instanced stuff. It's fine, don't get me wrong, just preferred it the old way.

Just want a mont with the ability to run on walls, because that would be a nice unique ability to play around with in regard of world design.

Emprer.7256 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Player housing. I am sure if Anet is to make it they are going to make it somewhat different than a normal housing feature like they did with mounts. I also want another class to play.

HoT and PoF were not well done. Period. You like them? Great. I do not, for a whole lot of reasons. Fundamentally, they aren't in keeping with the original game; but there are a whole lot of additional flaws in the design beyond that. > > So, take your entitled teenager mentality and harass someone else; okay? > > > > The problem is you saying "it is bad" and not "i think it's bad". You make a statement as a fact and everyone disagreeing with you is a white knight. Of course you're allowed to have opinions, but saying there's nothing else out there is a hyperbole that puts the Himalaya to shame. Distort much? You are rationalizing your own bad behavior and distorting what someone else said to justify it. THAT is the hyperbole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just want a mont with the ability to run on walls, because that would be a nice unique ability to play around with in regard of world design. Whenever I fight spiders, I take my glasses off! I'd love a spiders to bears mod. :p If they are almost spiders, I can probably deal with it better. My main issue is the mouth area followed by the twitchy legs. I can't look at that. x.x I'd be in favor of a pseudo-spider mount. Running on walls sounds like fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saephaan.7285 Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Dungeons and world bosses are what I liked in vanilla. They are the things that would get me back. Spent 2k hours doing them and would spent 4k more and 4 times the amount of money I used on vanilla if they went back. Another thing I would love is if they allowed us to get legendaries the old way. Just farming mats instead of having to do the precursor thing for each and for the armor having to do raids (I don’t know if this has changed) to get them really pushed me away. I liked to spent money on anet every 2 weeks and farm dungeons and bosses until after hours and hours of work I was able to afford my legendary, it really gave me a sense of accomplishment. Sadly now they are locked behind the expansions. I don’t know, I just love to grind, but I was a casual that played hours each day so I get nostalgic. I missed when you could be a casual and get nice stuff with tons of work. It’s just a dream and people like the way the game is now, so it doesn’t matter. I’m happy that people enjoy the game even if I can’t stand anet’s direction with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyon.9735 Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 • I'd love to wield a Spear or a Scythe hopefully on my Ele or Warrior. • Retain the story team for PoF. I've never really cared about core and HoT story and I've never finished it as I find it boring. But PoF was the complete opposite. Loving every minute of the story. I have yet to complete it but hey, this is the first time in my 5 years of playing that I'm actually doing the story even if I'm doing it little by little. • Another thing would be new faces in the Skills and Balance team who actually care about the PvP game mode.

MadFable.1978 Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 I think they'll need alot in the 3Rd expansion. Maybe bounties that take you back to the core game. Some added rewards for dungeons mayhap. New race or two would be well received. New zones that hit that sweet spot in activities between hot maps and pof maps. And player housing on top of it all. Maybe even a little pvp, wvw love too. It's alot, but they're going to have to hit it out of the park with the next exp to keep people coming back and make new sales.

dace.8019 Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 More instanced content like fractals, dungeons (RIP) and raids. Actually repurposing dungeons into fractals (and reworking/fixing them) would be the absolute highlight of an expansion for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brimstone.3807 Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 I'd like to see a mix of the HoT/Pof approach to open world content. I'd also like to see less focus on instanced content, it's not this game's strength. As far as future maps, I want to see the lore move forward, not backward. I'd be disappointed in a Cantha expansion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBZVelena.5186 Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 I don't think players know what it would be like if player housing was added. It would most likely just be a smaller version of guild halls. With scribing needed to creat some furniture things but most can only be acquired through the gem shop. And placing of things wouldn't even work that great. (not like how its done in ESO, which is awesome but soo relying on their cash shop) i think Tengu race would be nice but with the added thing that not ALL armor sets would work on Tengu yet. Or their armor could only be crafted by skilled craftsmen and is acc bound. Or some other way to limit the huge number or armor that they'd have to fit to the new model. Atleast when the expansion launched. Getting all the outfits to work would take long enough as is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bod.8261 Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 I think new and deep minigames would add most to the game. Think GW1 Polymock expanded and with also a competitive side. Or some form of card game or brawl with special skills. Most of the other points really would not be an expansion seller for me: __New Playable Race:__ As much as I'd like to permanently bounce around as a Quaggan, I definitely would not play a copy of a profession I already have nor racechange one of my own. __New Profession:__ I'd rather have well fleshed out e-specs than another profession complicating balance even more. And really the difference is not that huge. __New terrestrial Weapon types:__ I think that's more of a sub-point of new e-specs once they start running out of options. Seeing as A-Net is bringing new "weapon types" out of the old ones (Staff as Battlestaff or Scythe) this is probably the better option. __Player Housing:__ As others have already said: This would probably be super expensive, require scribe or some new discipline and be a gold mine for the gem store. And I'll 100% pass on another WoWesque farm or garrison that wants daily attention from me. __Return of Dungeons:__ Seeing that fractals are the new dungeons and they are doing a decent job at it and offer a more open advance instead of the fixed dungeons with paths, I'd say stay with that. But I'm really no fan of speedrunning dungeons anyway. __Return of Hardcore World Bosses:__ Just no, this would rather turn me away from the game. If you want challenging group content, raids are the way to go. Open world should be casual with meta events like Tarir that can be coordinated with Commander tags and have no hard failure requirements. Who really wants more world bosses that you have to be 30min+ early, join some TS and then still have a decent chance of failure? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sorudo.9054 Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 my dream expansion would be one that fixes many problems, things like adding dynamic quests, hair with helmets and hoods, professions balanced out so every single one of then are powerful from the core. just a small list that i really want to see: 1. New armor sets: and not exclusive with yet another annoying currency, these are armor sets you can buy like normal armors and drop as often as every other armor. it will also not just be 2 or 3 armor sets per weight, it will be about 10 sets all exclusive trough the expansion but all commonly treated. 2. Core weapon overhaul: all weapons for all professions are balanced and if needed changed, they will all be made in such a way that every single profession can compete. it does mean that some will get nerved to the ground while others get a huge boost in power but if it balances things out then so be it, i rather want everyone have a chance then just a handful. 3. No hearts, new quests: one thing that bothers me more and more is the lack of quests, hearts do a horrible job in replacing them and dynamic events are getting really boring. i think it is time for GW2 to get more then jumping hoops hearts, we need side quests and adventures that leads you to places you would otherwise ignore. quests would also enhance the lore, letting you know the story of that ruined castle or that cave that looks suspiciously like an entrance o something bigger. 4. Environmental uses: we have a small taste of how it is to use stuff laying on the ground, what if it's more then just using stuff as a weapon. what if we could hide in brushes, what if we could sit on chairs, what if we could even go to some animals and capture them to use as mount. i want to see the touchable world, a place where you can almost feel the grass and smell the bear, a place where almost everything can be interacted in some way or another. that's the small list i got.

dragonkain.3984 Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Kinda pointless poll since devs are not interested in what players want, they are interested only in things that they can shove down their throats for money. So I can bet we'll see player housing in next expansion with tonns of useless housing items for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chamelion.9536 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 I'd love a new personal story that helps develop your own character with new choices, personalities and so on, with a new 'personality creation system' that you select a few choices and it leads to a certain story path. For example, your character meets a special someone (romantic or otherwise) and you team with them in some stories, they get kidnapped part way and the rest is seeking them out and saving them. That special someone goes to your home instance at the end. Just more development of your own character, growth, personality, and so on. I'd enjoy following my character through the next stages of their lives, not just the path of defeating dragons, and so on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
