Guild Wars 2

In this pre-expansion period, players are anxious for content to help pass the time. I think a WvW tournament would help invigorate the WvW scene, draw in a few otherwise apathetic PvE’ers, and give everyone a small boost of AP and some of those Hero’s and Mistforged Hero’s skins to boot.

It would be a good chance to get a final rush of players into the Mist War before the current borderlands get pulled out for the new one, and it is probably one of the least-demanding forms of content that could be implemented.

So, how about it? Would anyone else like to see another WvW tourney?

First tournament – bad bad experience. Wrecked my server from the stress that came with trying to be #1 against terrible odds and insultingly petty rewards for the amount of time and effort investment required.
Second tournament- mediocre. Queues clogged with people farming achieves. mediocre rewards.
Third tournament – came and went instantly. How easily the rewards were handed out devalued any special quality they had from before. What was even the point.

That’s my feeling on wvw tournaments.

I’ve been waiting for the WvW Spring Tournament waiting and waiting it’s Spring already time for a Tournament and I don’t even think I like WvW, not sure about it yet to be honest but I know I would like a Tournament already

NO!

Haha! You won’t get your precious WvW tournament, nor will you get SAB, Crown Pavilion or any content update until HoT which we will not announce a release date for!

Nope…Pver’s go bandwagon to the most likely winner..every tourney so far has been kitten..IMO,offcourse.

I think we need a short tournament like the last one but with more things to do. That do 5 events a weak was dumb. I want repeatable achis

Yes please. Something I can participate in. I’m getting tired of all the sPvP esports tournaments where we’re somehow supposed to be excited to go watch something on twitch rather than play the game.

WvW tournaments are and will always be a bad idea.

All it does is promote tanking and bandwagons which only go to devalue the actual experience of playing.

If they want to do something for WvW players they can actually look into addressing major issues like hackers, fixing their server populations and server stability. Then look into actually balancing the mode separately of PvP and PvE like they said they would do at launch.

Once they’ve done those small things they can go about polishing the experience by actually making the titles and loot meaningful and worth going after.

Until they manage to fix up all of that, i hope we never see another season. After all the past 3 seasons have been major flops.

Phew, thank goodness PvE-ers don’t effect WvW, nor anything else cause megaserver.

Personally I am not too enthused about another WvW tournament. My server barely survived the last ones.

If you make imbalance a core design, don’t do competitions.
