    It was a fun ride while it lasted but it’s gone for good. RIP Guild Wars.

    NG has a lot bigger problems such as their stock falling below a dollar.

    @ATLAS-Z if not mistaken you was one that argued with me and told me their stock was steady and was okay?

    When a stock dips below 1- then it becomes at risk of not being traded.

    What NG has obviously failed to do was several things:

    Keep a fan base on flagship to generate enough sales for future success

    Develop games outside flagship that earn money

    Develop flagship game to where it draws new players and maintains current.

    Everything I said over a year ago is holding true and even more so today then when I said it. I pointed to PerBlue as a gaming company that was much more advance then NG ever dreamed of. I suggested that they look at where that company failed. But it’s obvious not the case. Ironically PerBlue was able to dip out and sell at a moments notice for 37m but left the stores open till the day it shut down servers for ever.

    NG if not careful will fail and I don’t expect anyone to notify us the servers will be shutdown. But reviewing stock makes me extremely nervous. Time will tell

    For the record, heard all this for over 200 days now

    No offense meant Fluxxx, you must be the 3rd community manager to tell us information will "come soon" and "top priority" etc


    Not enough carrots on that stick for me.....

    Just empty words to keep us interested.....


    I got a full Guild needs some motivation......

    You got another mode planned or something good to look forward to?? Give us a taster........


    "Soon" doesnt mean anything after 220 odd days.

    Is there not a single person that can release a more positive statement or even point blank say "its gone, we working on a new mode"?

    Every press release and statement is about Our World and Stranger Things, and Blade Runner...




    Do we not deserve a bit of honesty or even a teaser?? "Soon" was Spring, Summer and Autumn... What now?





    I do actually appreciate the Community AND the staff..... But sheet mane, even Razor for Ranged would reinvigorate this stale but tasty cracker lol

    No beef Fluxxx you doing what u can
    Game over

    Looking at their stocks and where their financial portfolio shows me NML isn’t a priority. It hasn’t been in a while, but like most gaming companies they diss their flagship and attempt other games.

    Only company I can think of that has successful down this is Bungie with Destiny,

    Interesting. $14.6137 on 2017-09-15... $0.792 today.

    I wonder what prompted the decline in early 2018? Employee shares selloff, maybe?

    "Soon" after 200 days is a very good summary of the situation.

    @ATLAS-Z

    I’m not that major of a nerd but I know games for PS4 or XBOX can have massive lifespans due to updates.

    Phone games can as well, simple games like candy crush has lasted years.

    Parallel Kingdom made it 7 years? But that failed not due to game but by greedy company.

    Pocket Empires?(think that’s game) inspired parallel kingdom and is still around today.

    Is NML finally dying? Is it saveable? Is it too much linked to a dying show? Is it possible to sustain the game without the show?

    Idk, I just know NG is struggling badly

    There's actually nothing in that post I disagree with.

    All good questions.

    Right now, I plan on hanging around to find out.

    Personally I'm not a huge fan of Guild Wars but I realize that it's good for the game. They've already put a ton of time into developing GW, so my feeling is that it's unlikely that they're just going to let that work go fallow. They have said that it is and continues to be a priority. They've been pretty clear in the past when things have fallen off the priority list... (I'm lookin' at you, Outpost). Time will tell!

    Just saying we really need GW to save us from the grind. If NG is expecting new games (like stranger things and blade runner?! Wtf?) to revive their company, they're dead wrong.

    NML has merit, but if it's just an endless grind of old maps and new benchwarmer heroes (Alpha is an utter disappointment), the playership will continue to drop.

    When does the winter update usually come out? We have a great guild that’s active but only crickets in the chatter. Guild wars gets everyone pumped up. If it doesn’t come back i think many will just quit playing.

    It better come back! That was the only thing keeping the endgamers in our guild playing and buying weapons and armor.

    Aye, no GW, no more NML for me. I'm already fighting with myself over it's space in my free time and my challenge scores are starting to drop off for the first time. Giving it until Xmas.

    Yeah @Fluxxx promised us news about GW, promised us GW in the winter update, and yet here were are at the end of November with nothing but empty hopes of a feature "coming soon" that we'll never get to enjoy again.

    Have fun missing out on my money Next Games, I HIGHLY doubt I'm the only player that's gonna leave if there's no GW by 2020.
