Guild Wars 2

Arenanet why you trying to get more new player so badly, when you losing 90%+ from players for 1-2 months? Better try to keep players (events is really bad idea to keep players)

And you get your numbers from where? Just curious.

From my guilds, they’re already dead.

Ah, I see. So it’s completely speculation based on personal experience. There are no queues in WvW, there are no overflows on any server. Your guilds are dead. Got it.

What you’ve written is fiction. The game is far from dead. There are too many people actually wandering around to call it dead. You ever hear how people complain that WvW is just zerg vs. zerg?

Well you can’t do that without at least 2 zergs. lol

Stefan.9360:

From my guilds, they’re already dead.

So your guild represents the whole game?
Quite funny, my guild on the other hand is alive and growing daily. So that might be an issue with your guild, not the game itself.

could you share with us more details regarding your guild?
i.e.
1. how many total numbers
2. how many online members per night
3. how many online members per weekends

thanks!

I know my guild has around 90 members… different amounts of people on all day long. On guild mission days we get about 30-35 show up usually, but not always the same 35.

And yes, the guild is growing. And we don’t actively recruit.

Just a question what server you play on? Theres a possibility a lot of people on your server are moving to a more active one. This game isn’t dieing but in the past this has been the case especially among the WvW community.

None of this is true.

ooo thanks for sharing some numbers! i guess i will share some too.

my guild …
total members: 300+
in-active members: 150+ maybe?
active members: 100+
semi-active members: 50+ perhaps?

weekday night time: 30+ online
last guild mission on sunday evening: 60+ online

most of the days it is average 30+ online though.
we have some regulars that log in daily and some that logs in once in a while.

our numbers are slowly growing, i think they are actively recruiting WvW members.

we are a casual guild where members consist of working adults, retirees, young teens still in colleges etc.

I’m in 2 guilds from the beginning now total numbers is 70-80 and I never saw more than 4-5 online. Ofcourse 90% maybe not true, but game already on the miminum capacity. And if you don’t wanna play alone on the WvWVW – better do nothing.

So you have two guilds that have “died” and therefore the game is “on the minimum capacity”?

There are quite often queue for WvW on my sever, and there are always loads of people doing the big world events and running around in the world. So clearly it is not dying based on my observations.
The fact that I more or less daily meet people that ask basic things would also imply that it keep coming more new players all the time as well while I still see names of people that have been there since release.

I was in two guilds in WoW with way over 100 people. Both are now completely dead. WoW must be dying.

All living things dying (games too). If you can’t see it – probably you’re already dead

That’s true, but you don’t look at healthy 20 year olds and say they’re dying. That is a misuse of the language. It implies something that’s not true. If all you were looking to do is mislead, carry on. lol

so your guilds make up 90% of the population of Guild Wars 2?

All evidence based on perception might be questioned. That includes my statement and the OPs.

In the absence of any evidence…why make a claim?

Many people leave at the beginning of any mmo, they buy it, they find out it’s not for them. Building a guild later after a game comes out tends to be wiser, as it’s the actual players that want to play the game rather than the people just trying it out.

I actually thought that Stefan responded with the numbers lol. So essentially it was a missquote. Sorry

No worries. At my age, I’m lucky I read it right in the first place. lol

According to quantum theory, if you can’t see it, then it’s both alive and dead. So there.

I’m in a giant guild, stealin’all ur doods!

How exactly can you say that people “leave” when they don’t cancel a subscription or something similair to that?

What if they’re just taking a long break?

Also, I know several people that only play a few times per month or per week. Not everyone has time to play every single day.

Oh, and my guild has been growing in the last few months. My guild defies your statement.

Oh well that just explains everything!
Arenanet pack it up, this guy’s guilds are dead.
Never mind it could be the player, or the fact that other players have different schedules and tastes.
Nope all Arenanet’s problem!

You sure did settle us straight, thank you. :P
