Guild Wars 2

Thanks ANET for the last WvW servers relink (ironic mode on)

Thanks for ruining my friendships by turning friendly servers into enemies so kitten fast (Tarnished Coast vs Gate of Madness). Bye Bye Guild Friends!!!!

Thanks for ruining my server, Tarnished Coast, by linking him to one that does not do WvW (Sanctum of None).

And thanks ANET for not doing the same things you do in PvP on WvW.
Where’s the gold and the grandmastermarks from the chests?
One gold for chest is better than none gold and a bunch of nothing to salvage

You guys are doing a great job messing up this great game.

jeez dude, youre really ungrateful. before links wvw was virtually dead. there are problems with our current wvw situation sure, but that best way to avoid the one youre facing now is to not make any friends with anyone not on your server. since as you have just experienced, links are finite.

When the solution to a problem in a social gaming genre such as an MMO is expressed, in whole or part, as, “dont make friends,” in the game, there is an even bigger problem than the one meant to be solved by the presented solution.

" any friends with anyone not on your server"

WHAT?? REALLY???? Is this a forever alone MMO?
What’s the name of this game Guild War 2 or Server War 2?

Good thing that’s not what’s going on here. With or without linking, people — including WvWers — have always transferred worlds. That doesn’t mean folks cannot stay friends or make new ones. TC has been hemorrhaging players for months and months and I still raid & fractal with folks.

You can’t have friendly competition? Why would someone stop being your friend just because you aren’t temporarily allies in a game?

It’s just a game, after all.

Good luck.

My apologies. I should have included the quote of the individual I was replying to. He claimed that not making friends was the/a solution.

For me, I do find myself playing WvW less or more based on linking. I am currently linked with a server against whom I had frequently competed in the past. It leaves me less inclined to play the game mode (which is where I had been spending most of my time lately). Knowing that I am actively assisting past and future enemies takes some of the joy out of every victory.

Shouldn’t this be in the WvW section?

This. We have friends and guildmates on different servers and when our servers are fighting each other it is all in fun. This is a game.

Didn’t you ever play board games? Did you only play these with strangers? WvW is a competitive game. If you win battles, great! If not, it’s still a game.
