I’m really thinking of quitting this game. I’m so tired of all the bugs, the cheeseheads exploiting them, and inexperience people who look like they just started playing video games, because they’ve become popular.

I’m also tired of being the best person on a losing team in pvp. Specifically in a tourny match. To finish a match to find out the opponent had average players, and I had to run around with a bunch of lvl 1’s is infuriating. I’d like to be able to pug with decent ppl rather than people who just joined the game, and think it would be fun to play in hard mode, and loss there minds, and wander aimlessly when they get ganked and curb-stomped.

It’s not just once in a while ether. Out of at least 15 tourny matchs today I won at least 2 of them. First thing people say is its my skills. Sorry that’s not the case. When I down 2 rangers with a rifle with the crackshot trait, and they have a buddy come help rez, and the mes next to me runs away there’s something wrong. Or if I’m bunkering a cap point, and I’ve got at least 3 of the enemy team on my guard, we don’t have any other cap points, or even have swords on them then that tells me my teammates are playing with the enemy out in the middle of nowhere. Are people watching porn while they play this game? They don’t seem to be paying attention.

To be a seasoned player is hard in this game. Being a rookie is fine, but I’m absolutely burned out on teaching, and my patience is all but spent, and that there are so many of them.

I find myself becoming very viscous, and unsportsmanlike with this. To be doing the right thing, but losing because of team mates, and being taunted by the opponent. It is a major blow to my pride. I have the Champion of the Gods title, and ppl may not think it, but that makes me a huge target for ppl who want to test themselves.

In GW1 I calculated my total time and it’s well over a solid year of my life playing GW. GW2 is no different. I’ve played at least 8 hours a day every day sense 3 days before launch. I still get a thrill out of this game, but people really hinder that.

I can’t even think to say anymore. I’m just not having fun anymore.

Sorry to say it but based on this very post I would say people would be glad to get rid of you.
The whole “I am much better than the others, and I only lose because the others suck” would most likely be rather annoying for most people.

I’m not saying I’m better. I’m saying the game mechanics are as such that it’s so one sided that there’s nothing to do in a match other than just akitten. I’m not saying I’m better. I’m saying why am I the one in dodge ball class that has to play with the kids who ride the short bus?

The reference to my time spent in this game isn’t meant to gloat it’s to give reference to my experience.

When people have to resort to a 3rd part website to find a group it’s pretty bad.

You actually said several time in your original post that you were better, and it was annoying that everyone else sucked.

PvP is a team sport. If you’re doing tournaments, find a team. Don’t pug with randoms. A good team is always going to take down a bunch of randoms anyway.

Yes this guy is better and anyone complaining about the fact that he is saying so are so bad players who dislike feeling like they are bad players. I am not making a judgement of value here, just gameplay skill.

Yes, bad players in this game are so overwhelmingly numerous and catered for, that good players are having a bad time, just because they are good.

Praise this mentality!

You rather want to be the worst player on the winning team don’t you

Sure once in a while would be nice, but I’d be happy with being in the middle. Some moderation would be nice, but if your answer is the other extreme that works for me.

You don’t seem to play this game much. You prolly don’t know what it’s like to carry a team do you? Or have to be the first to run in EVERY time, because your team wants a meat shield; not so they can dps, but to see how long they can last.

I play this game extensively and I do not understand your comment.
All I am saying is that people blaming good players for their claim to be good should learn to not make such comments.

ive got no issue with elitism, whats wrong with having pride if youre good at something but if its 2 out of 14 matches you win then you are either extremely unlucky or its something your doing, why dont you put together a team?

Welllll, 8 hours a day since launch… Assuming thats no exaggeration, thats excessive my friend. For any game. Do not fault GW2 for it.

I agree, the grind in this game that is meant not to be grindy, can and will burn you out. No matter what activity you are doing. Im feeling the same way right now. Barely scraping up the will to log in for 30 minutes for my daily. Yeah, I have the urge and need to force my self to do my daily for that laurel, so I keep up with the currency…so I dont fall behind. Laurels were a terrible addition to the game for this reason.

Anyways, once I lose the will to play at all, I’ll be in Neverwinter full swing. Level 60 and running actually VERY VERY difficult dungeons in that game. Having a blast.

If GW2 is burning you out, take a break. No harm, no shame. The way the game is designed is that when you come back, you wont be behind. However, …is that true?

Karma is as abundant as air, and as useless as the Kardashians.

It sounds rather presumptuous that you think I’m playing with good players.
