Holidays are an integral part of the annual publications. With the "winter" in December, you can expect in any case, which also is different from Guild Wars 1 winter (eg, because the gods in this form - as in GW1 - no longer exist). The holidays are also different each year. Halloween is e.g. next year to get another / new content. Some holidays are bigger, others smaller in circumference.

There should be new content every month. ArenaNet for the Live team is extremely important. Players should sign and best daily experience new content. Time there will be a large patch, sometimes smaller content that will be released for several weeks. Tyria will change. The lion statue in Lowenstein's example permanently away. It was destroyed on Halloween and will remain so. ArenaNet wants to publish all this content for free and without further subscription model.

With the Halloween event, the developers have learned many things. The clock tower jumping puzzle was too difficult, as it has now been determined. Also, the problems with the various peoples are to be avoided in the future. Another issue is the communication in the game. It is not obvious enough, what happens. Without information from the Internet (guides, fan pages, Reddit, ...) a lot of players would not have known exactly what they can do on Halloween and want.

ArenaNet talk internally about new mechanisms and how they can improve the game. These include LFG Tools (group), Dungeons for more than 5 players, housing, new rewards and features new legendary items, and improvements in all areas. Colin Johanson has not responded directly to content, however, indicates to many of the listed topics close or not, at least. New features for guilds and guild echoed to come, currently is work in progress but not yet. Many contents of this listing you will be able to devote only when buy Guild Wars 2 gold is optimized largely after the release.

To the dungeon is a very active area. The revisions to the concerns of Encountern (more variety and fun), and the rewards and the dungeon.

Also the website is about to be expanded. The statistics are WvW e.g. currently posted in the forum - Structured PvP rankings are missing completely. There will soon be new Feautres, such as a ranking of the qualifying points.

In Structured PvP focus is currently on the e-sports. Paid tournaments have just been implemented, the next step will follow official tournaments. Also on the custom server system is being worked, where players change the mechanics and conditions for maps or hold training games. Even with the Structured PvP rewards in one wants to think about new things but not yet talk about.
