Hello, everyone.
I play GW2 like a year. SPvP in this game is really cool & dynamic. I really liked it.
But there’s no “competitive stuff” in Spvp. No point to play it. There are also a lot of thing in SPVP field, that was designed badly.
1) I think almost everyone, who played with a friend, wants to play “hotjoin” match at the same team with their friends or group of people, like “party que”. Nothing in GW2 like that.
2) Ladder. Ladder now is a total bullkitten. No ratings, no divisions, no standings (But you promised normal ladder before). Nobody knows, how to get onto this page https://leaderboards.guildwars2.com/en/na/soloarena
Ratings\Divisions would be awesome. It works for WoW, LoL, SC2, so it’s nice.
And some nice rewards for it.
3) Team communication. You can do amazing voice chat, like in DoTA or CS, or some stuff like in LoL. Or at least something.
4) Interface. I want to customize my intefrace, to be more comfortable for PvP. I would like to move my\groupmates healthbars, move minimap.
I would like also to see enemy castbars etc.

So I would like to receive some feedback. Hope, a lot of people would support my opinion or at least suggest some cool stuff aswell. And I hope for some feedback from arena.net.

P.s. Sorry for my bad English.

Depends, you can also join the Team-Queue, but I think most people are afraid of a little competition, and enjoin brainless zerging in hot-join more.

2) Ladder. Ladder now is a total bullkitten. No ratings, no divisions, no standings

And how exactly do you think the ladder is generated? Everyone participating in the rated team or solo queue has a rating.

3) Team communication. You can do amazing voice chat, like in DoTA or CS, or some stuff like in LoL. Or at least something.

Well, short answer: press enter.
Long answer: With your friends use a programm like team speak ,skype or raid call.
A short messaging system similar to the communication-wheel in lol whould be nice with f.e. an “inc” or “help” button, which will automatically post that into the chat, but I don’t think we really need one.
Also take into consideration that every single thing we want to get implemented, takes development time, and therefore we have to prioritize our wishlist. Improved team communication is far away from the top.

4) Interface. I want to customize my intefrace, to be more comfortable for PvP. I would like to move my\groupmates healthbars, move minimap.
I would like also to see enemy castbars etc.

Has been talked about a lot -> we don’t want that.
We want to play the game itself, and not play with just the interface.
In games like wow, you got a huge advantage with the right addons. We don’t want to have a higher entry barrier for new players, than we already have. Not to mention the time necessary to find, download and customize each addon. (Some of them after every big patch).
FYI: We already have an api-interface in gw2, which enabled some addons.

BTW: After looking you up on gw2score.com/PvP I’m not surprised that we have a complete different opinion.

I have yet to find a single MMO that have a decent built-in voice chat. Loads of them have the voice chat part, but most of them are also quite useless and people uses external programs instead.

1) I don’t want to ruin other people game, because me & my friends\group are new to this setup\builds or characters.
2)It’s kinda not understandable and clear. In games like WoW or LoL I understand.
Like “I got 2100 rating, that’s why my plays is better, than 1900 rating.” Or this Diamond league player suggest to play that way, he’s high-rated, so his opinion is probably worth.
3)Ofc, I am not yelling “GIEV ME MINE VOICE CHAT OR HELP BUTTON NOW”, but that would be nice, especially for soloq.
4) I think healthbar\buff\debuff size is not giving a great advantage, but making the game more comfortable.

Anyway, thanks for your responce and have a nice day.
