I don't know how your xfire proves anything, but what I do know is that it certainly doesn't prove that Guild Wars is growing because it is "B2P and then F2P".Quote:

oh okay, on the top left corner, theres a tab where you can move to district 1. next time ask for help charlie
and also... whats this growing number of gw players in onrpg alone charlie?
oh yes, because everyone with gw has to have xfire
stop flaming this topic now ffs. Guild wars may have lost players but there are also a lot left..
Well hmm, let's see, the minutes played for Guild Wars has fallen several spots.Quote:

The game has still fallen many places in the top 10, meaning that even if what you're saying is true, they still have a lot less players than in the past. (Unless, for some reason, these players all stopped using xfire.)
And what you're saying is highly unlikely.
P.S. I district surf all the time.
P.P.S. I'm not saying GW is a bad game. In fact, if my past experience with it being so empty hadn't existed, I'd be buying the rest of the series right now. It's no knock against the game. Every game loses players eventually; but that doesn't take anything away from it being one of the most innovative and successful RPG franchises on the market.
I just felt your claims of the game "growing a lot" were rather ludicrous.
How about this charlie, we ask the onrpgers playing right now about the average population?
i dont care about no bullshit xfire stats.. ALOT of people stopped playing counter strike after CAL died (yes you can bet you ***, ask any cs players on onrpg)
yet its still in the top... explain that too :]
and new games hyped took over the top list right now.. they will die out
For the love of mmo can we please just get a lock on this thread
F.Y.I. im online right now and alot of ppl are playing..and its only 6:52AM (here atlease)
now,lockity lock lock pl0x
Which version are you playing?Quote:

The competitive community is pretty much the same. Some teams play a little less, but no one "stopped" playing because of CAL dieing.
They may play less, some less may play at all (but not because of CAL). There's still a ton of other leagues, not to mention the hundreds of LANs across the country.
Sorry, hate to say you're completely wrong.
Hi Vexi :)
I'm a noob too, Lvl 13 D/W. Add me on xfire :) Or my IGN (Herro Duck)
Also, there's nothing wrong with saying GW is dying. Of course aging games are going to lose players.
Hell yea,an on-subject post.Quote:

Meh, Guild Wars in my opinion is loosing a small amount; it's more like an on and off game anyways.
PS. Character name is Sir Izyman
Off topic:
Yup, GW is losing players. But the rate of loss is nothing to fret over.
There are plenty of people on, and it's not hard to get into a party if you actually ask. The current number of players does not indicate the game is dead or dying.
On Topic:
I started a new warrior on prophecies.
IGN: Swordmaster Monkey (W6).
Draining pre-searing for all its worth.
I'll have to go to work in about 10 minutes so maybe I'll party up with people later.
IGN: Nia Nibelung
Dervish
I'm in nightfall, but i got them all. (prophecy, factions, nightfall, eye of the north)
You have to pick the right channel, I thought the game was dead on till I picked the International channel I think.Quote:

nonsense
Maybe it just seems like that
because 1. Theres a lot of people doing pvp
2. no ones in factions or prophercies because they are playing GW:EN
I mean eye of the north is seriously crowded
I think factions is the least played :/
I have all the expansions soo
I'm looking for people to play factions with me
I only have three characters
one for each campaign
Not very far in factions
Factions: Thurandul Ark (ranger) Lvl 10
Prophercies: Aranarth Zetsubou (Elementalist) Lvl 16 (i called him that cause I think hes depressing)
NightFall : Roran Ra Zac (Warrior) Lvl 20 (My first character)
Feel free to add me, If anyone wants to do factions with me tells me, I'm not very far so I can start again in it.....
Its very easy to hit lvl 10
If you need any help with missions or anything feel free to give me a pm ingame.
IGN: Spike Treasoner lvl 20 W/M ( i'm not a Wammo either)
Usually if i'm not on that guy im busy but still drop me a pm if you need help.
Edit: Have all three campaigns.
No right? thats a stupid thing to say.Quote:

I've been playing for three years, How do I not have a right?
:/ Even if I was only playing for one year I still get to express an oppinion
Yeah guilds disband, I did't say "Everyone still playing!"
That would be stupid
I was just saying That there are still a lot of people playing
I stoped playing at christmas, and started up again now, because I wanted
to finsish the GW:EN campaign
Only on lvl 20 character, soo? I could make 4 lvl 20 pvp characters right now
Or, I could get dragged through the campiagns for money to lvl 20
I don't see how that would make my oppinion any more valid
Just cause I focus on one character does not mean I don't have a "right"
Also, yeah a lot of GW players now, are unsocial idiots
that don't like new people
"That don't have more then one lvl 20 character" :P
JK
but still that turns off new players, my friend quit playing cause in missions,
nobody would say anything, :/
so now hes a lvl 80 hunter in WoW...
The Guild thing .... I would not notice, I did't keep up with guild rankings.
Of course your right, my old guild is gone T^T
Had to find a new one.
But your right about the GW2, I'm playing GW:EN now, cause I was told there would be a reward in GW2 for fillnig the hall,
So I'm waiting and looking for a new mmo to play >o> <o<
"no right" T^T Low Blow there
Who cares? Every game loses players, please stop posting about it.
Definitely lost some people. Mission outposts especially aren't as crowded as they once were, you'll have to try alternate methods of finding parties apart from PUGging. I won't say it's completely deserted though, most people have GW installed but don't play it regularly (biased comment, i'm doing it).
Still, it's not all deserted, it's a fun game, and making and trying out new builds is always fun. I have to say that it's a worthwhile game to play, despite talks about GW2, and the slowly declining population.
they could be losing 10 players for every 1 new player and the total number of units sold would still go up, but they would actually be losing players. 5 years from now the units sold would be higher than it is now, but the game would be dead.Quote:

And,out of the expansion packs,which one would be the best to get? Factions seems cool with the whole assassin thing..
Everytime I log in, everything is extremely packed.. or maybe I just didn't get to see when it was considered full , but it's more packed now than during prophecies (at least what I've went through so far).
Community is way different now as well. Contains a bunch of morons that can't spell anything outside the boundaries of TXT TLK, and noone is as helpful and "get things done" like they used to. I remember people just randomly asking people to go on missions, the population in a town/outpost was constantly changing, etc. Now you just go in and people are like LOL I HAS HEROES!
Who cares? Guild Wars isn't even that good. It had good features, but when nothing binds, you get to the max level cap in 2 days, and you can only use 8 out of your 300+ skills at a time, what is the point. The PvP in my opinion wasn't very good anyway.
t'is a little thing called tactics my friend. GW wasn't designed around grind, but collectability and planning.Quote:

I understand but why 8? It was so hard to set up an assassin, considering they used combos and shit. Ran out of room. Probably the reason trading card games suck....Plus GW got really boring, really fast. YOu got to 20 and the only thing left to do was get money, skill points(cough), and PvP. And like I said, the PvP was mediocre at best.
Ok,you just posted in the thread to say the game sucks when obviously all of us enjoy it,therfore you know your gonna get flammed,which is infact the same as trolling.Quote:

sooooo..... 30 + 30 + 30 = 90 OR 40 trilogy?
even trilogy is not enough now.. you cant have perfect farm/pvp builds
anyway ign is phillip deez nuts if anyone also wants to join a nice pvp kurz ventrilo using guild. dont really play much anymore
