I remember trying to do not so secret for like 3 hours, when I did it. In the end I got a port from some kind soul.

i tried it for a little while when doing jumping puzzles for the achievements and got like 90% of the way on my own (because i was doing all the puzzles legit) but then i kinda randomly took someone's portal made for someone else that took me right to the end which got me the achievement

i said 'gently caress it' and left because that puzzle is a gigantic shitshow

I tried it again recently with a few friends, for completions sake since I remembered it being a ballache, and all 3 of us did it in under half an hour total. It's still pretty technical and difficult, but much easier with decent pc and Internet.

I'm having an issue on a friends computer where the game is trying to redownload even though it's already been downloaded once. Is it just patching or is this a bug with the client and if so how do I fix it?

My GF had this happen when she swapped over to the 64-bit client. She had accidentally put it in a one-step-removed directory. Remember that the relative locations of your executables and the data files is critically important. If the game doesn't find the resource files in the exact correct relative location, it'll start downloading an entirely new copy of everything, cluttering your system and taking hours to complete.

Yeah, this is why most of the recent jumping puzzles irritate me, since they're more about guessing which bit of scenery is the next part of the puzzle and which is just scenery than about figuring out how to get where you're going.

New fractals planned for this year. Maybe dungeons after?

I'd love more PvP maps, but I'll take that.

Is it bad I get the most hyped for balance/system tweaks like the last big patch?

Nope, I really like them too. You can't really have good content if your fundamental underlying systems are terrible, and seeing them fix systems and make them better is really cool.

Using fractals themselves as an example, if we still had to do fractals in bundles of 3 random fractals then a boss, it wouldn't really matter if they added a new fractal because I still wouldn't want to play them because that system sucked. And if they hadn't changed the daily then adding a new fractal wouldn't matter unless it was faster/easier than Swamp or Molten Duo because the entire world would continue to run Swamp seven times a day and Molten Boss twice a day and never touch any other fractals.

Similarly I wouldn't care if they added new PvP maps if they hadn't made PvP stop sucking with the fairly good Leagues system (it's still a work in progress but it's way better than the old system). Same story with WvW, making the Reward system and server tiering system for WvW not suck has made me actually interested in WvW more than any of the stuff with Alpine and Desert Borderlands or the idea of a new Borderlands map. And adding Dungeon dailies and unfucking the rewards for them has revived them as content that people actually play on a regular basis.

Fixing systems improves the game so much more than new content does.

Oh also they're adding a 6th pip to the Provisions Master track in WvW that lets you buy HoT stuff from the WvW vendors, from what reddit says

I believe the part where he says there'll be one new fractal for this whole year. Anything else I'll believe it when I see it.

Once all of the core systems are fixed we will also be able to devote even more time to content.

Boy if that isn't the story of gw2. One of these days they'll have a steady content release schedule, just gotta rein in those core systems.

I made a Chrome extension that pulls your Dive Master achievement data and adds a column to the wiki page.

Basically:



You can check off ones you complete as you go along.

If anyone wants to give it a try, it's in the Chrome web store.

A bunch of SFD, PA etc were stream sniping Doc Got Game earlier today, after killing him about 10 times he got a bit insane and transferred to Maguuma so he could stream our EBG commander locations.
