Concerning the system of inter-combos, can you tell me how many of these combos are already established in the game?

Ben Miller: Actually, it is also one aspect of the game that we are actively working right now. We have information about it arriving very, very, very, VERY soon. The example of physical projectiles passing through a wall of fire is the best known. Spells creating such zones can effect mostly be used in the same way by the players. But again, we will deliver more details on these combos soon.

Next blog post :)

Ben Miller: For me it is one that has not yet been revealed. I'm sorry but it's true! I try to avoid the question but it really is my favorite!

Noooooo why do we suffer? :(

Because like most of us on this forum you like to suffer, that's why you're here. :D

[bmine]

That is unusual number of "very's"!
Very interesting interview and I can't wait to find out more:D

Right now, I work on the dungeons that are instances of 5 people for high level characters. There are currently 8 towers planned for Thurs

Any idea what that last part means?

[Cloudpiercer]

Wow good interview, very very very soon??? Blog post about combos?? That would be so awesome. Dude is trolling us saying his favorite profession is the one thats not revealed.

[Gareth72]

I was hoping that very, very, very soon would be attributed to the final profession reveal, but I suppose I can settle for more cross-faction combos.

I've been wanting to see more than just the same old firewall routine.

Translate on freetranslation.com to "It ya currently 8 foreseen keeps in game."

I would be willing to guess it just means that there are currently 8 dungeons planned for release at this point. I could be wrong... I don't speak French lol

Sounds right except for google translate saying planned for "Thursday". I suppose anything is possible with a translator...but eh.

Thanks for the link.Next way i go there :)

Very, very, VERY soon = Oct 31 or Nov 1 :D
Bring it on!

It is a bad translation, it actually says there will be 8 dungeons in the game.

[Sakorath]

Did anyone else scream out in glee when they stated that day and night cycles will effect the environment, dynamic events, and sounds of the game. This is a jewel right here :)

[Geikamir]

What's the treatment system? Is that supposed to say crafting?

It's a old news :D

[Nemui]

i hope it's really "very" soon. like during the next week... otherwise ArenaNet's definition of "very, very... soon" kinda scares me.

Geikamir said:

trait system maybe ? no idea...

edit: why the hell can't they just give us the original, english answers people give them ? we have to put up with an automated translation of a translation... when they have the "real" answers on their desks. :mad:

In the french version it says "système de traits". It is the trait system.

[Gigashadow]

Interesting, sounds we'll be seeing more about cross profession combos imminently, before the the traits system, 8th profession, guilds, or WvW.

[DarkWasp]

Unless they need to have all of the professions publicized to talk about the cross profession combos. :D

[Yoh]

Alright new info soon! I cannot wait.

I mean the only cross profession combos that I heard off was shooting A though B to get C (like a arrow though fire to get arrow-on-fire for more damage).

[7thCylon]

so the final profession has mesmerized one of the devs.. how interesting.... more sylvari faces and hopefully asura faces

For example, the villagers return home at night when the guards come out to patrol at night.

This answer my question in the Question and answer section:)

It says: "There are currently 8 dungeons planned ingame".
"game" is written "jeu" in french. "thursday" is written "jeudi". So, Google translates "jeu" by "thurs"... :devil:

[Saleem]

Ohhhh sweet a blogpost about cross profession combos soon would be cool !

But I was hoping something like that to come out after the reveal of all professions so they could use all of them in the action as an example :/

Hello there,

I'm the one who made the interview during the PGW ;)

To answer a few questions i've read :

@bmine : Yes, Ben Miller actually said : "really, really, really, really soon". So, we might assume, some infos are on the way !

@dungeons : Jeff Grubb said that there will be 8 dungeons in the game. Nothing new then...

@Nemui Ben Miller said he was working on the "trait" system. And the reason the ITW is in french is quite simple : I was at the PGW for a french website (jeuxonline.info), so I had to make my news in french although I made the interview in english (both questions and answers)...
I'm deeply sorry about that :(

If you have any questions about the ITW or the translation, feel free to ask ! :)

Hi Melila,

I'm just curious, but does JeuxOnLine allow interviews to be presented in both french and english if the interview was originally in english? For instance, I've seen sites such as OnlineWelten sometimes provides the english version after the german version (example, pages 1-6 are in german, 7-12 are the same interview in english).

Obviously if the interview was in french originally this wouldn't be practical. :D Is this feasible or is does it have something to do with site policy?

[Centaur]

Thanks for that interview, Melila. And I can understand why it's only available in French - for interviews that are done electronically (for example by email) it's easy to post both versions, as you already have the english version available anyway. But if you need to transcribe an audio/video interview, it does take extra time to first transcribe the entire interview in english and then translate it (instead of translating it on the fly while you're transcribing the french one)

Hey! You did an awesome job there. Finally some adrenaline-injecting interview. I've been waiting for one like this for a long, long time. Keep up the good work! ;)

I really, really, really, really hope that this soon means this week. Problem is, we will now get a sample/learn of ArenaNet's time-philosophy, and if this "really, really, really, really soon" means first or second week of November, we can guess the approximate timetable for their other promises - e.g. the most debated and well-known promises: Mesmer revealed on December 22, while CB starting around that time too. :p

Do note that this was a statement from Ben Miller. He's a developer, and he may know that the information has been submitted for publication, but he may not have any idea how long that whole publication process takes. That could well be a few more weeks. But that doesn't say anything about similar statements by other team members (so a similar statement from for example Eric Flannum or Martin Kerstein could easily mean something completely different...)

[Melila]

As for the english version of the ITW, i'll ask the head of the guildwars 2 section on jeuxonline.info...

The main problem is that the audio recording is really really really really(Ben, you here?) bad, meaning there's a lot of background noises. It was quite hard to transcribe it... And unfortunately, I transcribed it directly in french (listened in english, wrote it down in french...).

In the meantime, it'll be my pleasure to answer you :)

@Thalador : Thanks a lot ! :) The devs were really nice and friendly but as always, there's nothing really new :(

Ah, my mistake, thought it was already written in english. If it's a recording, I can also understand why it's far more work to get it available.
