Now I’m just sayin’, wouldn’t it be incredibly easy and amazing to add a permanent multiplayer addition to the arena in Divinity’s Reach? It would work just like any other minigame activity, it would keep the whole join up with randoms system yet only require two players. Toss two random players into an arena to battle each other to the death and wah-lah! You’ve created a new component to the game that could keep players occupied for hours on end.

Flame and Frost: I can’t believe that after all this LS you’re making me run a dungeon with PEOPLE!

Southsun Cove: Canach can’t be defeated alone? Moar solo content nao!

Dragon Bash: I hate PvP and how dare you add another dungeon! Grumpy Cat plays MMO’s alone!

BotFW: You’re finally listening; content I can do without a team! Still this race is too PvP like for my discerning tastes. Stop it!

Cuththroat Politics: The trials kill my soul and I need a team to even pretend at a chance to do them. Also, more people oriented mini games? Seriously?

Even though the above comments are satire this is what the devs get and what we see in the forum with each living story after living story. It would have been simple to make this (gauntlet) an event where you could choose a team or even pug a group, true. I think this was intentionally solo content to calm the nerves of people who want to play an MMO without interacting with people while at the same time giving them content that is a challenge, felt rewarding, and could contain an epic sense of game play all with out the need of a party or having to use a dungeon.

He’s talking about the constant “We want solo content” complaints. And when there’s a legitimate solo content addition, people start asking for more “group” content.

In GW2, Trading Post plays you!

Your reply befuddles me, I think you’re misunderstanding my post, I’m not suggesting it be tweaked for a co-op mode, but rather a vs mode.

versus mode is also a “solo mode”

since u enter solo and fight with another solo guy.

Ah, now I get that you ment multiplayer in the fighting game sense of the word and not team play. Thanks for clearing that up.

Even with that in context I’ve illustrated that people have complained about both content requiring teams and content that was PvP oriented. 1v1 fighting totally counts as PvP and my statement saying they made this solo to appease the people who don’t want to play with or against anyone still stands and holds water.

We don’t even have 1v1 for sPvP. If we can’t have that in the meta I don’t see a LS story team developing a tangible way for us to 1 v 1 outside of the mists.

We have no idea if there will be a dueling thing, maybe we should hold off of suggesting how they can make it better until they actually release it?

Right, but I wasn’t stating that the current option should be replaced, but rather that this simple addition would add so much more.

So basically this is another “PLEASE GIVE DUELING” topic.

Nah.
