Don’t Miss the Halloween Surprise at Noon Pacific Octo…
Act 2 of the Guild Wars 2 Halloween event is live – enjoy the festivities!
DO NOT MISS Act 3 of Shadow of the Mad King which kicks off at the lion statue in Lion’s Arch
at noon Pacific (12:00 PM Pacific Time/19:00 GMT) on Sunday, Oct 28 with a very special,
one-time only surprise!
I was kinda expecting some great, amazing thing (that would only happen once), but all we got was a cutscene . It was nice, but that’s basically all the great amazing surprise we were all looking forward to was. Apparently some people also encountered a bug and couldn’t even see the king making the event even worse for them! I found both videos from some tweets Guild Wars 2 posted.
It was better than nothing, I guess. After all, the rest of the Halloween event is pretty fun and this is their first event. :3 What I don’t get is why they couldn’t just add an NPC next to the dungeon entrance. You could go up to them, and then you get a dialog where you ask them what happened, and your game shows you the cutscene! Even if it required an extra loading screen to get you into a “cutscene instance,” it would’ve been better than telling everyone to come online for such a brief surprise, right?
Oh, and all of Lion’s Arch turned green. So there was that too. ^^:
