They ever going to bother to fix the bugs with some of the classes and actually address the general issue of combat being too much zerg and AoE spam?

I recall them stating the upcoming patch this thursday will fix a lot of class issues. But take it with a grain of salt.

As for the Zerg bit, it is an mmo where everyone is in the same group, as for the AoE spam bit, good luck not having an AoE spamfest without friendly fire or other mechanics to hold AoE spamming down.

And the trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=K2ddErJ2c5I

Sucks that I'm going to miss most of it since it has a lot of 1-time-only moments.

There was a red post on the necro forums a few days ago saying that a fix for the talents will be coming soon. Dont know about the rest of the different class talents but I would hope that it would all be done at the same time since its taken so long.

[QUOTE="BrunoBRS"][QUOTE="WiiMan21"] The patch is supposed to fix a lot, ARENANET is actually doing a lot in terms of polishing their game. And the fact that they're having these awesome monthly updates is a bonus.WiiMan21

[QUOTE="WiiMan21"][QUOTE="BrunoBRS"] part of the reason those monthly updates exist is to address the "lol no endgame" complaints, and to have things to come back for.silversix_

So the new dungeon will add a new item tier to the series...

This is NOT the Arenanet that made GW1. Item progression is not the reason I bought GW2.

i'm not entirely sure what to think of it :?

just hope that it works much better in practice than in theory, like tiered traits, and for the love of god that it does not mean they'll just keep adding new tiers to trivialize old gear, turning this game into a treadmill because people think doing things just for fun is pointless unless they get bigger numbers.

They're just adding one tier.

It's a shame that a +2 stat boost (+2 precision is a ~0.08 critical chance increase) completely overshadows the wonderful news about Legendaries and the cool new content available. What would be hilarious in that once the ascended armour comes out, it wont have a rune slot that grants at least a 90+ stat blueprint and a side-trait. IDK, just wait and see how the infusion upgrades work.

The only real problem is that there is a hard gear check for those that run pugs with the Agony resistance acting as the gate, and not the actual stats.

They showed a MF ring(a very intentional misdirection). The stat budget between items will be the difference between masterwork and rare items. Pretty significant in the grand scheme of things.

Compared to what we actually know from that blog "There are multiple types of Infusions and Infusion slots. In November, well introduce Offensive, Defensive, and Omni Infusions of Fine rarity from new Mystic Forge recipes"

Fine rarity.

Not saying that people dont have a right to be skeptical, I may even be wrong in that Ascended doesnt have a rune slot. I just think people are taking words out of context, overreacting, panicing and speculating way too soon. It's becoming this buzzkill for this new content that im quite excited about.
