What concerns you most leading to launch

(1/27) > >>

Tracks:
There was a thread started on guru about this topic and I thought it would be a good one for here too.

Basically what are your concerns with Guild Wars 2 leading to the launch.

My biggest concern is with crafting, I wish if you knew a recipe you wouldn't have to go to a station to make the item. If I got 10 pieces of leather I should be able to make them into a bag on the spot, now  understand why they did this so it's more of a wish than a concern.

And the other is just timing, I made a Asura named tracks on the beta weekend and I actually liked the name after a while so I really hope I can get it but I sort of doubt it will be one grabbed fast and I do plan on being up till the head start anyway so even that's minor.

What about you guys, what are your big concerns. Maybe if you tell something and it's something someone else knows we can alleviate yours before we even start. ;)

Nightsong:
I don't really have any concerns towards the game. I've read enough about it and how ArenaNet is designing it that my expectations have been met and not overhyped at all.

My biggest concern however is the community and trying to unlearn 10+ years of MMO mentality. Even in BWE#3 I still saw people trying to mold the games hearts into quest hubs as well as saying that the Guardian was a pure healer while the Warrior was the only tank.

Sivorick:
I have a few balanced based concerns, but nothing I'm overly concerned about. Also it should be known that there are many changes in the works. So what you saw in BWE3 was not the final version of the game.

This pretty much.

A large majority of people are forgetting ArenaNet is using the beta tests for actually testing purposes instead of a glorified free preview of what the game will look like at launch. Heck... it got so bad that two of the Lead developers had to come onto the Beta forums and state that balance is ongoing up to the point of launch.

Soulstain:
I'm certainly no expert but beta's are usually a full build behind what the real product is.
