Guild Wars 2

I’m enjoying playing HoT but I think Anet is punishing a lot solo/casual players with these new meta-events which are the most efficent way to leveling.

The biggest problem I have when I play is to find a group of players and what event they do, and sometime (like yesterday evening) I ran around for an hour and when I finally found some one doing an event ….the event is over or almost,or I found a small group of players and because the small size of the group we are unable to complete the event.

This start to drammaticaly slow down my leveling , and reading the forum I’m not the only one having problems.

So I was thinking a way to better organise the meta-events….this my idea.
Create a specific LFG/P tool only for meta-events….this how should work.

Let’s say there’s an event ongoing to capture the outpost near Noble Ledges in Verdant Brink, you open the,let’s called for now “meta-partecipant” tool and you select the meta event you are partecipating to and ofc where.

So if I go to Verdant Brink …..instead running around the map/waypoints in order to find where the majority of players are and what meta are doing,I just open the “meta-partecipant” tool and I can see which meta-event players are doing and how many players are partecipating at it,so if I see that 30 players are at the nobel crash site but only 10 are at the Jaka Itzel’s outpost I will go directly there (without wasting time running around the map) and select in the meta-partecipant tool that I’m partecipating at that meta-event.

Basicaly with this tool you will know how many players are in that map , which meta they doing and most important…..you know directly where to go when you want do an event , and if there’s no one doing events at that time at least you know and you can do other things instead running around the map wasting your time.

Maybe this idea seems stupid and pointless at first , but imagine how better you can organize groups for the meta-events in Tangled Depths and Dragon’s Stand.

What you guys think ?

whole point of the meta events to begin with were so the game felt alive and you would run across them in your travels. Not a stupid idea though i wouldnt go so far to be that hasrh.Just seems like it kills the original concept behind the events.

In the original zones you’d be traveling from one heart to another, basically, in HOT there are no such reasons to be traveling so all you’re doing is hunting events!

I guess the events in the old Tyria were much more fluid than HoT , and now is not feeling alive at all on my opinion
