Guild Wars 2

Let’s just call it Blackgate Living World from now on. Or Desolation Living Story. Because we all know, it’s just for us and no one else.

Thank you Arena, on behalf of everyone on Blackgate, I just want to say, you make us feel privileged and special.

Aww do you need help finding Scarlet’s secret lair?

no excuse for any server not to be able to do marionette regularly during peak hours…….and if they really tried/organized as hard as BG and Deso, same thing for wurm.

its not rocket science….its gaming.

Wrong forum, methinks. This should go into the Origins of Madness or Living Story Discussion forums.

I already found it on Day 1.

I’m beastgate, son.

Looks like Arenanet is one step ahead of you:

“As we tested out the map with various numbers of players and spoke with the members of the test, it became clear to us that the ideal approach was to group all of the NA players into one group and all EU players into another: meaning that all NA blue worlds will fight side-by-side with each other on the blue Edge of the Mists team.”

Nice AP’s you got there

Btw for me my favorite is periscopes of consciousness…

in the spanish server we beat marionette daily, and the wurm was failed by 10 seconds in the phase 2… just saying that every server can indeed complete it, but it’s hard as hell.

Delete this thread already?

No constructive discussion will come from this.

Why so negative Shpongle? I think the Marionette is the most successful PvE encounter to date. The Wurm on the other hand might need some fixing to ensure its longevity.

I wouldnt call it Blackgate and Desolation living world, but definitely the Wurm and Tequatl are Blackgate / Desolation / Jade Quarry, high-pop server content…most other servers dont have enough active players on at any given time who are good enough to accomplish these events, which is why they fail, which then discourages people from trying, which then causes the good active players to transfer servers to Blackgate / Desolation / Jade quarry or another high pop server….which exasperates the problem making it worse on any but the high pop servers.

I saw it happen with Tequatl, so many good players I know from Borlis Pass transferred to Blackgate (and Jade Quarry) because they couldnt find enough people to do Tequatl on BP…and because “they are going to re-vamp all the bosses to be like Tequatl”. My friends list looks lopsided with more people being on other servers now than being on my own…yet we all met on BP.

The majority of the good / active players have been transfering to certain servers, which makes it really hard for the rest to even do the event, events like the Wurm only make it worse by glorifying the servers that can achieve it…making more people (even those without any skills) transfer there to be part of the “Elite”.

This is a big issue. Every player should be able to complete the new content without having to guest or leave their own server. It makes no sense to create events where so many servers have to guest to a high population server to complete something. Yes, there’s always the option to guest to those servers and get yelled at as leechers if the event fails. Great fun.

Maybe some are missing the point of the OP. This content is not geared towards hardcore players so much as it’s seems to be developed for only 2-5% of the GW 2 population.
