Guild Wars 2 lacks basic security features

OmniGamer writes " absolutely love Arena Net’s latest entry into the MMORPG market, Guild Wars 2. It is a beautifully detailed game with a great art design, great sound design, great gameplay, and did I mention there is no monthly fee. You pay for the game and that is all you do, Arena Net never asks you for another cent of your money. Even though I like the fact that there is not subscription fee I sometimes think the game would be a lot better with one. Don’t get me wrong I love the gem store, and who knows how much money I’ve spent ($150+), but the game lacks some basic features that should be included with every MMO."

I think I get an email from ArenaNet once about every week with an unauthorized login attempt notice.

I've been playing GW2 since before launch and I haven't once recieved an email about an unauthorized login attempt. Either I'm just lucky (probably) or people need to start learning some basic personal security strategies like not using the same password for every single account.

Cirran4163d ago

I have to confirm through email every time I want to log in. Never had any unauthorized login attempts.

r40k2134163d ago

After you type in the authorization code that was emailed to you, check the box on the following page that says something along the lines of "remember this location" and you won't have to authorize it every time.

Cirran4163d ago

Oh I did that once but still got the email. I also want the authorisation? More security is fine with me,

"Guild Wars 2" has just released its “Secrets of the Obscure” expansion

"ArenaNet and NCSOFT are today very happy and excited to announce that they have just released the "Secrets of the Obscure" expansion for their award-winning and critically acclaimed MMORPG "Guild Wars 2"." - Jonas Ek, TGG.

very much so... "blank" is still a thing" is also still a thing as you can can surmise.

PRIMORDUS233d ago (Edited 233d ago )

Anet also announced the 5th expansion. "We’ve already started applying lessons from the development of Guild Wars 2: Secrets of the Obscure to our fifth expansion, which we expect to be released next year." From their site, been with this game since 1st beta, and announcing the 5th expansion so soon, the game is doing very well, plus the graphics are improved a bit now that it's on DX11🙃

TGG_overlord233d ago

Correct, and yes. Imo, they've done very well for themselves, and I'm very impressed with what they have achived with GW2 since the game launched.
