Guild Wars 2

…. that we have a massive problem with their experimental sPvP matchmaking.

So, ANET is characterized for their lack of connection with the community and their capability to allocate their resources in non-essential aspects of the game while the urgent matters are unanswered or unattended for months/years.

What do you guys think that would be a good way to force ANET developers to take action and LISTEN to us?

Please keep your answers short and respectful.

Force all responsible for it to play non-stop pvp soloqueue ranked for 3 days. Only soloqueue. With an account that has a starting mmr at around 60%. Have fun. I didnt.

I’ll start by saying that ANET developers need to actually play the game so they can see by themselves what are the problems.

Stop playing PvP for the season so nobody can queue. Once people complain, maybe they will ask themselves why things went poorly. They do read the forums, but they can’t change things mid-season.

While I respect the fact that they do work hard, and lets face it. When you’ve really worked at something, it has to be hard to take when people slate it.

I don’t hate the league, I just think as good of an idea as it was, it’s not really set up for solo play. Lets face it not everyone wants to.make a team, or has the time to be in a team. I think it would be good of ANet to admit that it’s not quite worked out to everyone’s liking, and that yes the system has treated some people poorly and other a little too well. But as with all things in life, for every person who hates it, there are those who love it. Normally the people who love something are the ones getting the better deal out of it.

This season really shows that is true. The people riding high on the “win wave” think there is nothing wrong with the system. While the people in losing streak hell, hate it with the power of a million suns.

You can’t make anyone listen to anything really, sure they can hear you, but they normally ignore everything you say, untill it’s too late.

They have more data than we ever will without even first playing the game.

I admit communication is poor lately, but doesn’t mean they’re not doing anything. This game is unfortunately larger than just sPVP, and it seems devs as far as resources are concerned, are far and few in between as of late.

They have more data but macro management and micro management are 2 different things. And there are very important details of micromanagement that are essential for the health of the community that has not been addressed or has been addressed waayyyyyyyy tooo late and the solutions just damage another aspect of the game…

However, the OP purpose is not to judge ANET or discuss specific. The OP purpose is to discuss creative ways to reach ANET attention and make them act. Since providing feedback on the forums or complaining in posts doesn’t seem to do much.

The purpose of the OP is to discuss creative ways to make ANET understand and act about game issues. Not to discuss if its possible or necessary.

Lets get creative, lets discuss innovative and creative ways to do it… Since complaining on the forums or even giving them appropriate feedback on forums doesn’t seem to be working.

Unless specifically stated otherwise, we have no clue what is or is not being looked at. The same goes for any solution that may already be in the works or planning that is being done. Whether you think it has to do with communication or not, they are connected, and therefor relevant.

Sing a song, paint a picture. If they don’t want to listen they won’t.

A start would be if the game would belong to ANet and not NCSoft so the slacking around due to hitting the required (contact) lvl of incomes could disappear. And actual decisions could start to follow a minimal moral level.

The unbalance of PvP and WvW all is about the PvE raid, don’t try to balance this 3way in a game. When you make a 10ppls raid, the nightmare of balance is following.
