Guild Wars 2

At the moment the spvp leveling is like this :

Each ranks are segmented depending on the title you unlock. The progression is exponential : the total amount of ranking points needed to reach level 80 is :
8.971.500 for 80 levels so its an average of 8971500/80= 112143 ranking point /level
If Anet would have made a linear progression in spvp ranking that would be much better.
So let’s take around 100 000 ranking per level. When running a spvp match you can get around 200 ranking point per match per 15minutes on average time so it means to get a level considering the average value per level it will requires you to play 112143/200= 560 games per level each game duration is 15minutes so a 1/4 hours that means you ll need to achieve 560X1/4= an average of 140hours of game play per level.
The analysis is based on the total average time required if you go all the way to 80 I remember you.
140average hours X80 = 11200 hours of game play
In order to get to level 80 in a year so 365 days you would have to play everyday 30hours in a 24hours day long that is not even possible … 11200 hours is 466 full DAYS
??????ANET WTF IS THAT ???????? (24/7 plays 466days long in order to achieve it => what a freaking huge joke is that?)

You can compare the pve linear experience progression to the spvp one to see how broken is spvp leveling system.

I ll suggest Anet to change the spvp exponential progression for a linear one and reduce by 50% the average ranking points requirement to level up. 50k ranking per level on a linear progression line to 80 is the best way to fix this broken spvp progression mechanism. By the same way double the ranking points incomes per matchs + a daily reward extra ranking point bonus of 5 000 points or more. Then you have a FIX.

Fixing spvp sick requirements shouldn’t takes ages and is not impossible.

Seeing this analysis I doubt anyone found out about this because this should have been since start the best reason and subject for players to complain about.

My last word will be about this: I really don’t understand how a company can pay some programmers in order to design some game contents (finishers) unlockable after 3years of game play for 1% of the game population: it’s like designing a product that you expect noone to be able to afford it. This has no sense specially for a game.
Anet can bring the grind spirit to a new level…… Sick sick sick…

I invite anyone who feel that this game design need to be FIX as soon as possible to post here and comment about the numbers you read.

11200 hours in real life work at 10USD/hour its like 112 000 USD
I prefer go get cash IRL than waste my time for such grind that is no way worth such $
Anet fix this or tell me how this would make you earn any $ as it won’t help players to get IRL $ neither XD if they spend such huge time playing for a virtual stuff better let them earn irl $ to invest in your less grindy game will benefit players and Anet.

Yup exactly . . . is funny how people make fun when a person buys a legendary or other item with real money.

With a salary of one week you can purchase a item that take months of grinding.

A 100% pvp soul will never enjoy grinding and crafting materials.

Any other reactions about the sick requirements to reach rank 80 in spvp ? If none react then I don’t see why bothering asking this issue to be fix.

the game is more than 1 year old. do u think u are just discovered it now? a lot of players is just sick of rewriting always the same stuff. on the other hand is a reward overhaul in sight (maybe in 2 years ingame) so why complain about old and a lot of time already mentioned stuff that probable get fixed soon ( in anet time, means 6 month +-1year)
