Predictions For GW2's Future?

I think it's inevitable that Cantha and Elona are released, likely as much the same way as GW1, if for no other reason than fans would throw a hissy fit if those continents were ignored for long.
Other playable races are probably going to be released with all it's emphasis on style rather than stats content... maybe they will be purchasable rather than as part of an expansion pack (or whatever massive update they release if they're not doing paid expansion packs,) I would personally hate that but it sure would be profitable.
They have set the mechanics up so as to ensure ease of added class content without imbalancing the game. Each weapon has all of it's skills preset without any customisation, and considering they did a bloody good job keeping a fairly well balanced game in GW1 in lieu of having hundreds and hundreds of interchangeable skills for each class, it's not entirely unforeseeable that they would add new classes or new weapons to the game.
I'm not exactly well informed about this so I am wondering how long the dragons are going to be a part of the game; will they be killed off before expansion packs, or at least before Cantha and Elona are released, or will they be kept as big bads for as long as possible throughout the games life?
You ARE trolling; you stated an opinion which is fair enough, but when people attempted to dissuade your argument you continuously repeated your opinion without much discussion, that is inflammatory action. You are trolling.

I think that homosexuals are the spawn of the devil, that they should all die a slow painful death and that when they do they shall burn in hell forever, but because that is my opinion*, however ill informed it might be, anyone who opposes it strongly has no right to say so. They should just get over it.Saviordd1 said:

Jesus christ, I have an opinion, it doesn't make me a troll.CriticKitten said:
Grow up!
At any rate yes I worded it wrong, let me rephrase.
If it does well commercially, why should I give a fuck? Its still a step sideways.

I think I have lost faith in humanity.
What else should I say? I played it, I've seen it, its another MMO with like two whole new things.
FUCKING REVOLUTION GOING ON HERE PEOPLE.
GW2=GW1 with races and shiny new classes. (Oh, sorry, PROFESSIONS)
You people need to stop seeing any attack on your personal jesus christ of gaming as trolling.
I think people find it hard to take you seriously when what you're saying is provably wrong.Saviordd1 said:
World
Guild Wars 1 - World is instanced
Guild Wars 2 - World is persistent
Quests
Guild Wars 1 - NPCs with ! above their heads, use of quest hubs
Guild Wars 2 - Dynamic events that just happen, no quest hubs
Story
Guild Wars 1 - Everyone played the same story
Guild Wars 2 - Everyone's story is different based on various choices you make throughout the game.
Just to name a few diffrences
Except it isn't. Guild Wars isn't the next big thing, its another MMO with a few interesting hooks that will lose novelty very quickly and reach a niche audience.SajuukKhar said:
Examples include...
Star Trek Online and its space combat/customization
City of Heroes/Champions online and its super hero thing
Dungeons and Dragons Online and its challenging stuff
The Old Republic and its story driven questing.
etc etc
God that gif is exactly what you're doing right now isn't it, fussing and having a tantrum because nobody agrees with your completely misinformed unfounded claims and your attempts to start a big flame war on a Guild Wars 2 thread, instead it's just you looking like a complete fool. I lol at every post you make because I can just see you digging yourself deeperSaviordd1 said:
On Topic guys I would love to see Tengu as a playable race for a Canthan expansion, also for Elonian I would like to see Centaur but the only problem I have with that is wouldn't they be really awkward with underwater combat? I mean Horses aren't very strong swimmers are they? I've always wanted to see a centaur race in a RPG though.
Now that's fucking stupid.SajuukKhar said:
"Hey, the fans of this game disagree with your statement, therefor you are a troll and incorrect."
I mean...what?
I'm sorry, but no it doesn't.Scow2 said:
PvE has like 2 tweaks which, while cool, aren't exactly huge.
PvP is still PvP, nothing new.
The new questing system, while cool, is still grinding.
Exploration is still exploration.
And social is still social.
Again, nice tweaks, nothing groundbreaking, thus a step sideways.
As I recall Anet specifically said one of the main reasons they WONT do centaur as a playable race is because swimming looks so stupidJun_Jun said:

-There is no grind.
-Large scale 3 way PVP hasn't been done in a big MMO before, it's been tried in smaller MMOs, but not in a big one. Furthermore the rewards system that PVP holding give to the PVE players is also something that hasn't been tired in a large MMO before.
No, I couldn't do that, I'd re break my knee.Jun_Jun said:God that gif is exactly what you're doing right now isn't it, fussing and having a tantrum because nobody agrees with your completely misinformed unfounded claims and your attempts to start a big flame war on a Guild Wars 2 thread, instead it's just you looking like a complete fool.

No, I'm pissed because everyone in this thread seems to think that because my opinion is different I am either
A: A troll
B: Missing the glory that this game supposedly holds despite the fact that its still a damned step sideways.
C: Living in Arkham Asylum somewhere.
Hell, I did what a I normally do, post my opinion on a thread, leave. Everyone else freaked out, and before now I couldn't be bothered to give a fuck what fanboys thought of my opinion but my willpower gave in and I'm finally responding to these guys.
Yes, there is, making the grind a little bit different with that new questing system that adds up stuff or whatever is still grind, its just been made a tad bit less terrible. Like mixing vodka with anything.SajuukKhar said:
Jesus your right 3 way PvP hasn't been done bef...
Oh umm...
Well I...
Nevermind then.
Neither Planetside or Darkage of Camelot were large MMOs, so way to totally not pay attention to what I typed, and I will admit that I forgot EVE was 3 way........ but then again it is a spaceship economy sim and not a typical MMO.Saviordd1 said:
Also I don't think you know what grind is.... because GW2 doesn't have it.
Planetside was huge, maybe not as huge as WoW, but still huge. If you don't think it was big or good, your an idiot.SajuukKhar said:
Grind is exactly what it is, you'll be doing quests over and over with the ability to either kill the boars, pick the plants, or kill the boars and pick the plants! Oh jesus that is so damn grindy I think I hear rave music.
You're only doing the quests "over and over" if you're playing it wrong. It's always an option to come back to a quest, but if you get bored, you can choose instead to go have a fight in a bar, explore the world, see how many high-level enemies you can take on at once before going down, or go try to see how much a difference you can make in the massive world-vs.-world conflicts. You don't even have to finish what you start. You don't really have to do ANYTHING "over and over again."Saviordd1 said:
