Community Manager@flexibleFLIMINGO That's a really good question. Well, Halloween is a favorite so when the Spooky Squash came out it was joy! On the other hand, in The Yeti King all their dancing was pretty good too.
I like Time Park, so the Brothers Gnonus will always be up there was no nonsense with the brothers either.
Thanks for replying! I've been talking to another EA Community Manager in EA's Discord server regarding this, I hope getting this changed will be quick and easy. 🙂
Regardless of how all this turns out I gotta say i'm happy to see a lot of engagement in the the community right now as I thought these forums dried up a whole after bfn got canned.
@VendetedFox agreed. I was just putting out an idea. But i think that they should just bring it back. I really miss playing boss hunt with my brothers and dad.
@flexibleFLIMINGO never played the yeti king boss hunt . The spooky squash hunt was bery fun and it was similar to the yeti king hunt.
@DeathBuggI'm crying tears of joy at thought of boss hunt returning. I bonded so much with my siblings while trying to defeat them.
@VendetedFoxExactly! Boss hunt as a whole imo feels like an expansion of ops that was looking to really to test the metal of the player base a its so quick and agressive yet winning the day as a team was a feeling unmatched by anything else in game. Top tier pve in the series. Bfn tried to replicate it but it just felt hollow to me since it was so easy.
I would probably bounce up and down the walls if this stuff succeeds and the rotation gets changed. I would definetly make it a priority to help the newbies on day 1 that are in for a massive difficulty spike that they havent seen yet.
They've said they sent information to the team, and that's all I've heard from them specifically. I've been excitedly waiting for any new info regarding this from them.
There is no doubt that the new Community Manager EA_Shepard through his own unstinted enthusiasm for the game has given hope to the community.
I personally, however, don't believe there is much hope for a GW2 renaissance given that one of the tasks of a Community Manager being to inform the GW team of the Community's thoughts (put forward through the past couple of years both forcefully and faithfully by stukapooka and Iron_Guard8 in particular) would undoubtedly have been done by all Community Managers prior to EA_Shepard 's appointment.
The reason nothing has happened is of course that EA have no intention of reopening and therefore reassigning a team (and therefore production capacity) to maintain and improve upon a dated game (being nearly 8 years old) that on the PC side of the equation is shot through with hacking and in general requires of a more stable and rigid game architecture.
I really and sincerely do hope that the efforts of EA_Shepard will bear fruit, but I just can't see it happening......sorry for being such a pessimist.
@stukapooka one thing i like about this fourm is it is active because i keep refreshing the page and seeing new posts to give xp to
@DeathBuggI remember only a few like @TheSprinter85 and ironguard8 being left on the forums when pvz3 got sundowned or whatever. I just came back a few days ago and chimed in on this post out of some pvz nostalgia only to see it blossom into a movement for the community. Crazy aint it?
@stukapooka agreed
@ManicMossie you are alright man. We cant really expect them to do this, but at least they have finally started considering bringing back boss hunt and other modes.
Absolutely stukapooka I simply don't understand the difficulty in reassigning eg. Boss Hunts to the portal when they have automated the Town Hall game modes.
I can only guess that the Devs have wanted to tone down the attractiveness of GW2 when, at the time, introducing BfN. Ultimately, with focus now entirely on BfN they have left GW2 to its own devices, and we are now left with a shell of a game.
@ForeverKnightsWhile there are a lot of gripes I wish gw2 had fixed such as Atleast activating bots for solo play gw2 wall nut hills pe buffing some of the weaker Spawnables, I would drop all of them if they gave us a simple portal fix since that's one thing every gw2 player can unanimously agree on.
I know this stuff takes time if it will even happen but @EA_Shepard has really set the community ablaze with discussion lately and we all just can't contain any potential excitement we have, epsecially since I keep checking these forums with baited breath like a child even though i'm now 20.
