In the night from Friday to Saturday Colin Johanson of ArenaNet was in the live stream broadcast of MMOFTW mmorpg.com to visit. A replay of the broadcast is available.

Colin Johanson of ArenaNet was in the show MMOFTW of mmorpg.com a guest and talked about the upcoming news for Guild Wars 2. If you missed the live stream event on the night of Friday to Saturday, can subsequently view the recording.

The topics covered range from the Game Director announced AoE nerf the class balance up to culling problem on WvW cards and large-scale events. So if you looked at the last webcast of ArenaNet and has read the blog post by Colin Johanson will not learn much new.

A theme is of course the announcement for the January patch host function. This may be in the future daily two other worlds to visit with some restrictions. The drawback: The free world transfers are abolished. A transfer to a new homeworld costs in the future gems. And what a reasonable group search function in the game? At one in the gw2 gold game implemented LFG function is working.

Known to get new achievements for which we earn laurels now. First, the daily and monthly results to be adjusted. There are also adjustments for Orr. Where new events are added, mob spawns and waypoints revised. But in general, should be established in already existing areas must be new, and to get new loot for the players to feel like it, to look at everything.

ArenaNet has already announced adjustments to the surface damage (AoE nerf). The AoE damage will be mitigated, at least as regards the impact on individual goals, and but other attacks on specific targets to be improved. Generally, once the classes and arms are scrutinized and adjusted to find the right balance.

Even the so-called culling problem (charging problems, invisible character models) on the WvW cards and are working at big events. Henceforth, the resolution of the character models are scaled down. It does not look pretty, but it is only once an interim solution. Major events such as the Karka event "The Lost Coast" in November found until the problem is cleared up, does not take place. To stay with the WvW: The commander received new orders and new events to occur. Colin Johanson noted that the division into smaller groups is the best tactic. New titles and successes are also planned.

Otherwise, Colin Johanson commented yet on other topics such as news for the guild. For the guilds, there are special issues and successes. What about guild halls? ArenaNet has not forgotten the desire of the player, but not as fast as we can expect with the arrival of guild halls.
