Guild Wars 2

Same issue mate :(
Have emailed support and CJs.

Sorry but the people that might actually be able to provide you a proper answer seem to be to busy whining at each other and their denial that the control method preferences
may actually be down to an individuals preferences (:eek: OMFG NO! I AM RIGHT NOT YOU) as well as which in game char they'd prefer to blow.

For now just put in your billing address as somewhere untrue, for e.g. the British Virgin Islands. Set the rest of your address as your actual address details, and then fill out your correct credit-card information. You can still claim the gems.

You're welcome :)
 
Source on this? Because I know I can play a lot faster with shift commands and better.

I agree, I find it completely spurious that supposedly "people were slower with shift modifier keys". This is completely illogical and counter-intuitive. How can you be slower pressing Shift+1 rather than having to reach for or - dare I say it - look at your keyboard to find 9, or 0? You'd have to have Alzheimer's to really react slower with Shift modifiers! I want to see some sources for this, if you will, because otherwise I am calling a strict fabrication.

Also, just to bury this for the last goddamn time: I am not comparing the game to WoW in any way. bhavv you have honestly lost it mate. Total paranoiac.
 
We then rated what we found and they looked at speed of progression, DPS, death rates etc when people were using modifiers and not. The metrics and peoples experience showed that people who were using modifiers were not reacting as fast - and in this game if you don't move you die in exploration etc - so they took them out.

Twoddle. It's purely optional to begin with, I don't react any slower or have it impede my game in anyway for using modifiers I just have many more convenient binds available as a result.
 
This is the thing though, it should be an option. If it makes a clear difference to competitive play, surely people won't use them.

I highly doubt that's the case though.
 
Cj's have offered me a refund, will give ncsoft a phone tomorrow morning as a last resort see if they can migrate my key. If not a refund will be in order.
 
Anyone here playing the Thief over the Beta weekend? Any feedback on Steal? It's quite an underwhelming class-ability compared to the other classes win-F1 ability. What sort of steals have people come up with? Most of them seem quite... novelty-like.

Furthermore has anyone's opinion changed of the Thief since playing it properly? I wanted to main this class for GW2 but now I'm leaning more towards Mesmer.

I dunno, the Necro F1 ability is pretty terrible. The damage increase is marginal, the abilities have massive CD's and don't really do much when you can use them and you get booted out of it if you take too much damage.
 
I wanted to play Theif and found it utterly underwhelming, im now going to be either Necromancer which im loving at the moment or Ranger. I just can't make my mind up.
 
I remember in the early pre-release videos they said Thief had a stealth that would last for a 'limited duration', being a more tactically-deployed thing. Steal instead was quite interesting for a while but it doesn't really work for me. Most of the things you steal give a minimal difference to your fight over standard abilities, and also it's really difficult to even see what the Stolen item gives you - whether it's damage, healing or buffs. You have to mouse over the bar and read a tooltip telling you what that particular mob's Steal gives you. Headache.

Other than that I have found Thief surprisingly strong as a straight-up melee class. I've had a lot of fun with the bugged Shortbow that lets you rain down cluster-death on every mob at like 5x the DPS of daggers :p

Cjs say I have too many support notes open...I have none open :confused:
Will be in the Sates tomorrow....with work...at least geographically if I log on then it will be correct :p
 
Same CJS issue as everyone else and my reply is:

Sun, Apr 29 2012 3:54pm - CJ Poh We can either send you a free replacement key to see if that will solve the problem?

Hmmm
 
What exactly is a replacement key going to do? I don't think you can attach a second key to the same account.

CJS keys are CLUELESS regarding US / EU locking, the only solution really is for arenanet to remove the ridiculous region locks from the cash store, or change your account flag from US to EU. They can so that but they aren't replying.

i think they won't unlock the regions because it's something to do with the Euro and VAT, was playing another mmo and they had to lock regions because of some silly new law about VAT last year stopping us in the UK paying in USD

i don't know it was weird, i stopped playing it after that lol
