Guild Wars 2

So when are these things coming to the game?
I’m dying to finally get some competition instead of playing an endless farm game to get ranks that only show how much time you invested instead of showing how good a player is.

In my opinion it’s too late already.

Let’s be honest here. GW2 and WoW are competing to get the RPG players to play their game. When the new WoW expansion released 90% of my friends that played GW2 with me left to play WoW again. Why? There’s no competition in GW2.
Why didn’t you just bring ladders/rankings up before this ‘great migration’ started.

It makes me sad that my 30man PvP guild only counts 2 active players now. And I’m not exaggerating. These are the numbers unfortunately.

Soon™

To be fair, other games have had years to develop all these things. WoW didn’t have ranked PvP almost 4 years, and I’m sure LoL and the other “E-Sport” titles out there took their fair share of time as well.

Give it some time. They (supposedly) have the PvP blog finished and are just translating it.

Soon™ …

going to admit it feels like d3 all over again zzzzz

love this game and all but all my friends are quitting or just dont like the pvp system in gw’s2 feels unrewarding as it is now. But i stand by it takes time i know….but Soon™ will make you flop just like d3 did.

and borderlands 2 is looking mighty interesting right about now….

Just saying Soon™ should be sooner

good thing there’s no info about when ratings/tournaments/anything is actually coming.

Stop whining little kiddos, patience is key.

You might understand me wrong.
I really want to do the ranked stuff, but I’m willing to wait for it.
It’s just that 90% of the good players I used to pvp with can’t wait and left for WoW again.

I’ve bought GW2 with some of the best pvp players from our WoW guild (Bruce Lee. Rank #1 PvP guild on Arenajunkies’ rankings). We were kinda ready to start rocking in here only to find out there’s no ranked system up (yet).
I’m not planning to return to WoW, but if ArenaNet doesn’t get this Ranked system up before MoP’s first pvp season starts, I’m afraid I won’t be able to play with my best friends because they will get sucked into wow again, which makes me a very sad and lonely man.:-)

I agree completely with Sephalo. Me and the few friends I still have left in the game are discussing this almost daily. More and more people are disappearing every week and everyone acknowledges that the reason is the lack of a proper ranking system.

So this becomes an almighty chain effect. So many players have been part of my team during this last month that we could could have had 2 or 3 full teams, but instead we seem to struggle to get 5 reliable good players together.

Having to look for new members all the time and having no good way of evaluating their prowess in the game except having them in a couple of games is also frustrating and extremely time consuming, since there are no reliable stats of any kind – we can’t know if they are terrible or terrific.

I have also seen how many other teams have suffered from this so far as well.

It definitely feels exactly like in Diablo 3, and I am personally at the threshold for not only losing all my patience with this game but with my otherwise lifelong hobby of gaming entirely. Sigh…

For someone who’s entire life is GW2 pvp, this is a huge issue people, please don’t dismiss the previous posts because you have jobs and wives. Devs please listen, a huge number of your players are kids and trust fund emos, don’t discount these players because they are different than you. Thank you.
