What will the next campaign bring us?

Hey all, well like the title says, what will the next campaign bring us?

This is what I've been hearing:

The name for the next guild wars will be archcroft or something like that, although this hasn't been confirmed. (I will ask my source for the exact name soon so this post will be edited)

It will probably be based on South America or Antartica.

I say this because if you look at what A-net did so far is base their campaigns on certain areas in the real world (Asia and Africa) but of course I can't be sure, it's just the most logical guess.

Furthermore I believe the dye storage and an improved trade system will be implemented, since people have been spamming forums begging A-net to make that stuff happen, and haven't been satisfied with the current 'search button' trade feature.

I hope to see large indoor areas and a more rpg influence in the next campaign. I think guild wars should be more about the freedom to do what you want with a wide variety of features to make this 'freedom' possible.

1 of these main features is finally making PUBLIC combat areas... no need for many, just a few.. with spawning monsters.. to make sure you A-net guys keep those 400,000 people who are thinking of dumping guild wars for WoW, which has this sort of freedom.

Anyway now lets get down to the point, what do you guys expect to see/want to see in the next campaign?

Plz share your thoughts, and if you happen to dissagree with my thoughts, just post a reply and we can discuss it ^^

RE: What will the next campaign bring us?

id kinda like to see things like "challenges" where you have to do something in a certain amoount of time.
ie. kill each enemy in order in 5 mins. or something like that

also id like to see'

1. pve arenas that help u gain lvls.. what i mean is like.

its a 1v1 battle and you face the level of monster u set it for. and then keep killing it at higher lvls until u get soo high that ull die something in that area

2. id like to see a pvp 1v1 or 2v2 arena implemented. would help on creativity of builds, instead of everyone using the same builds.

now lets watch as i get flamed! lol jk

RE: What will the next campaign bring us?

I mentioned this before, but Skill Quests would be great to bring back. I loved them in the Prophecies campaign.

The trading system needs a bit of refining as well and I'm curious to see how A-Net will tackle this one. Auction house has been mentioned a bunch but maybe there is an option we haven't thought about. Anyways, trade needs improving.

It would be nice to have more areas like Sorrows Furnace but involved directly in the story line. Like the Modock Caves in NF but a little more bad ass like SF.

Other then that, I can't wait to see what they will surprise us with. Just have to be patient and see....

...the shark blew up cuz the penguin rigged it with explosives. if you dont know this, ur retarded, in the face.

Antartica.

Antartica probaly wont be next campaign just because gaile said that doesnt mean she's right, plus that was soo long ago the next capmaign is still in the early stages i assume.

Now what I want:

A HAIRDRESSER ffs, everyone wants it it'd be extremly easy to do now just give it to us.

Armor Storage- I'm running out of mules.

Give factions some sort of an event it's almost like they don't care about it anymore. =S

Oh and of course a new trade system ours is horrible.

And to be honest...anet doesnt need to be working on a new campaign imo they maybe should listen to what players want and suggest implement them into the game, fix the countless bugs because they are extremly annoying. So maybe they should look at the game THEN start a new campaign. :O

-EDIT: I hear from some "friends" that the next campiagn might be called Utopia :o EDIT-

-ANOTHER EDIT >_<

Action House.
NO closed doors what so ever.
Armor, dye and rune storage.
Skill Quests.
DUNGEONS! We need more areas like ToPK and SF.
Adding mouth movement to Factions/Prophs.
New and hard to get greens in prophs. Like adding a really cool weapon set to Maw the Mountainheart.
Crafting skills =P.

Thats my wish list.

RE: What will the next campaign bring us?

here's my wish list so far:
auction house.
good looking armor for pvp characters (my idea is that buying an armor piece would unlock that armor piece for that profession in pvp).
more content added to prophecies (and maybe factions) so that people will have a reason to go and play that again.(yeah, it's pretty empty now).
sasquatch. no explanation needed.
a storyline.
skills as quest rewards.

RE: What will the next campaign bring us?

I looked at mother nature's post and realised I had forgot to mention 1 important thing in my post:

FIX THE F*CKING 'GETTING TELEPORTED BACK' BUG

I think runners have an idea of what I mean, but let me try to explain:

You are running a friend to lions and at some point you reach griffin's mouth.(cave filled with ettins)
You run past a group of ettins and there seems to be no problem.. then you start to take a lot of dmg but no foe is in your agro range.. suddenly you get teleported back 50 to 1000(!!! seriously this has happened to me) meters and are standing there being beaten by the group of ettins that you ran past ages ago.

My 3mbit a second DSL connection is fine so it must be guild wars.

PS: it took me 9 try's before I finally got past em, and I'm not a noob runner, ive did the prophecies run multiple times. ( all major cities in Tyria)

scrimmage

scrimmages can only be done with guildies or alliance, and they dont give u faction. it would be nice if there was an actual arena that would give u faction.

- Be able to buy mini pets off of the gw online store
- Mounts (run same speed as normal, BUT just for the looks xD)
- New, improved, cooler, modern, exciting, + more information/ looks on the character login screen
- A calculator build into the GW system e.g if you type /5x2 *HIT ENTER* it will come up with the answer
- Interface addons/ skins so we can change the looks other than just moving it around.
- (not to bothered about this, but would still be cool) A F* button where you can record a movie ingame
- A long campain that recuires alot of work to get to lvl 20 (like prophicies)
- Cant change worlds untill you beat the game (e.g change from 'new campain' to tyria, cantha, or elona)
- (Epic weapons i mentioned erlier) Recieve them from endgame bosses like The lich, shiro, Abbadon
- When ur ingame, have a character swap menu OR go to character login screen, instead of logging in again and again and again...

And thats all i can think of right now... not much i want xD

Hmmz, new races would be cool but I can't say I agree with being able to play as mursaat and stuff.. they are cool but I can't imagine how they could be involved in the stories of guild wars any more than they are already...

QUOTE

- NO RAISED LVL STAY AT LVL 20!!!!

I agree with the lvl thing.. there are plenty of other ways to become stronger than just plain lvling.

QUOTE

- A 1v1 pvp arena that gives u fame

I have to dissagree with the pvp arena that gives u fame.. the purpose of the hero title track is that you can say: I did this, and i took me a lot of effort. Making an arena would make the title just as common as the sunspear title track.

QUOTE

- A /Newdance for the prophicies characters, that actualy give you a new dance, instead of the same dance but starting in a different time

I dont quite get you on that 1.. but maybe it would be cool to introduce a dance teacher to the game, like a npc who sells various dances for a lot of $.. this would make it a prestige thing(like 15k armor) and people usually apreciate that sort of thing.

QUOTE

- Mounts (run same speed as normal, BUT just for the looks xD)

Ye mounts would be cool. I'm thinking mounts should increase speed by 10%/25% (not sure) and running skills should be dissabled while on a mount. Else you get runners going at 200km/h with a horse.. would look fun though:P

QUOTE

- A long campain that recuires alot of work to get to lvl 20 (like prophicies)

Nightfall is pretty much such a campaign, it takes you atleast a few days to get to lvl 20.. so def. an improvement on factions.. but indd, prophecies was better at this.

QUOTE

- Cant change worlds untill you beat the game (e.g change from 'new campain' to tyria, cantha, or elona)

I understand why you wanna do this, cuz else everybody rushes to cantha and becomes lvl 20 in 2 hours:P.. but then again, thats just a choice people make themselves.

QUOTE

- (Epic weapons i mentioned erlier) Recieve them from endgame bosses like The lich, shiro, Abbadon

Shiro's blades. I see no reason to create epic weapons, but a new sort of weaponcolour would be cool, red weapons who have the feature that you can name them:)

QUOTE

- When ur ingame, have a character swap menu OR go to character login screen, instead of logging in again and again and again...

Would make things handier, but then again, when on a public computer people could exploit this and empty your storage:P
I say this feature must be something you can select in you guild wars account info, that way you can choose if you want to have this feature enabled.

I didn't hear that stuff from gaile.. if you think logically, you see there are only a few cultures/ types of areas left to be used for the new campaign, Native American/ America, Incan culture/ South America and Antartica.. But the fact that gaile gray said the same as me a 'looong' time ago proves my point.

I heard that the new guild wars was going to be named: "archcroft" from a guy who reviews games for several magazines.. so I take him very seriously.

And scrimmages are just for fun with guildies/alliance members, what the guy means is an arena where you can fight new people who havent seen your build a 1000x times before because you fight with em every day.

People are saying Guild Wars: Utopia because a couple of weeks ago ArenaNet patented/copyrighted/trademarked/whatever and bought the domain for that name. Same thing happened when Nightfall came out and turned out to be true. Then again maybe it was a hoax or trick this time.

Dye storage? People begged? Here's plain and simple truth for ya: A-nerf gives 0about what people on forums say. No matter how much do you beg for getting something, theyll never apply it. Just look at the skill balancing this morning and keep hoping for something that will never come.

Sometimes they listen but then you usually get a half kittened attempt at it. Like the "Search" trading system and the festival hat guy. I am sure they knew people wanted a simple tab in their storage that fit one of each hat in it, like material storage but they came up with the hat guy.

They should spend more time on what people ask for and not weeks on skill balances that no one asks for.

Crafting material storage has already been implemented, and they do need new features for the next campaign, so I think it will be realised. Besides, I didn't make this post in the hope that Anet happens to check this post and realise our ideas, I made it becuz I actually wanna know what other people think. Is it so hard to see? or are you just to busy complaining that you dont even pay attention? ;)

Furthermore, Anet DOES listen to guild wars players, but only the wrong kind of guild wars players:

THE NOOBS.

A net does what the nooby majority of the guild wars players want, so they keep the mob playing, just look at the green items.. invented becuz those idiots didn't know how to make money and buy a decent gold.

RE: What will the next campaign bring us?

It would be nice if more of the titles served a purpose in game

For example
Skill hunter - as you gain level price of skills purchased drops off
In addition break these up to campaign specific titles like the cartagripher titles

Friends of the Kurzicks/luxons
As titles increase prices from merchants drop off slightly (not too much but kind of like owning a town)

hero/gladiator title track
reduce the faction level required to aquire skill as rank increases

Also need to fix it so you can max out the sunspear title track

just some idea that would be nice.

Can't wait to see what they have for us though

Countess Elvira N/me, Seductress Eliza Mo/me, Sonja the Red Devil W/mo, Vry Sneaky A/R Alexis Coldeye E/mo, RIP Carpit Mucher Mo/E BANNED now Little Miss Muffin, Mistress Loud Mouth P/Mo, Sheeva Swiftfoot R/mo, RIP Muf DivR PvP BANNED, Johnny BravoAmp (PvP Ranger), Sxl Harasment Panda PvP various),
