Guild Wars 2

Sorry to snipe that post, Lawton :P

(i got something wrong and found out now…)

€€: ok, one thing about the “bonuses” object: shouldn’t it be an array of arrays in case more bonuses are being added or will bloodlust be the only one for the future?

€€€: Wait, does that even make sense? Maybe i should go to bed.

https://api.guildwars2.com/v2/wvw/matches/1-4

v2/achievements/daily doesn’t show up in /v2 This is why I didn’t notice it here: https://gist.github.com/darthmaim/16ccbda1944c2d4126f9/revisions. (guess I should have read the PR again)

I’m not the achievements guy, but i’m eager to play with the new wvw API as soon™ as possible.

Thanks for all the work btw!

€: Umm, now that we have that nice API, would it be possible to enable a bulk endpoint like /v1/guild_details? Would be 2 requests to get the whole data for a match – a dream!

€€: it would be even cooler if /v2/matches would contain a comma separated string of all guild IDs contained in the current response, which could then be used to get the guild data without looping through the response first.

Probably not gonna provide a comma-separated list of guilds though :P

Hi Lawton,

FYI, kills/deaths seem to be broken for EU matchups. The overall kill/death stats are not present at all, and the per-map stats all report as “0”.

/v1/wvw/matches without any id passed in gives me the world ids of the worlds involved in the match, whereas /v2/wvw/matches just gives the ids.

Should I just continue to use v1 to find the match that my world is in, or will that also be added to v2?

Ick, I think I know why that is but fixing it is actually going to be really difficult. Thanks for the bug report!

So I just learned that my bug hunting in my own code was in the API. Thanks for the confirmation!

Keep us updated friendo. We appreciate the work you’re doing.

Hello Lawton,

the new kill/death counter is an awesome functionality,but the data stream seems to be inconsistent. While some of the data is added to the API value continuously, a big part of it seems to be gathered only every 4 hours. Is this the intended behavior or a bug?

As an example, I recorded the following on Saturday from 5PM GMT onwards: http://imgur.com/9AMrOvN

Edit: After looking more carefully at the map-wise breakdown of the kill counter, I’m fairly certain the calculation of the total kill/death count is bugged. For some of the values, the sum of the values for each map does not match the total.
At present, the total tier 1 blue deaths listed are 50% higher than the combined deaths from all the maps.
Given that the totals are making large unexplainable jumps and the map values are increasing smoothly, I’m assuming the issue lies with the combined numbers.

Thank you for the quick reply!

Lawton Campbell.8517:

The sums probably won’t match up — you’ll have more deaths than kills due to NPCs killing players. 50% seems a bit high though, something’s probably wrong somewhere.

Sorry for the issues with this, won’t be able to fix them until some time after launch.

Maybe Jade Quarry is just really bad at clearing camps
But in the limited data I have recorded, all these strange deaths have been accredited to another server.

Don’t worry too much about it, though.
As I mentioned, the total is the only part showing strange behaviour. As far as I can tell, purely based on their progression, the map-specific values appear to be good.

Seems server deaths and kills not working propertly on EU matchups (2-x)
says 0 for all servers on both kills and deaths
bug or will it be enabled on next reset for EU?

copied the following from https://api.guildwars2.com/v2/wvw/matches/2-3

“deaths”:{"red":0,“blue”-:0,“green”-:0},“kills”:{"red":0,“blue”-:0,“green”-:0}}]}

Keep up the good work
(edit added – infront of :0 for blue and green string to remove link)

So there was just recently (about 30 mins ago) a weird hiccup where the matches API errored out, and then suddenly the last_flipped time of every objective reset itself. Not sure if it’s something to be too concerned about or not, but I thought you guys might want to know. Also, it does seem to timeout at a fairly regular interval as well.
