Guild Wars 2

As of now, it’s only when you get really close to a cap point do you see what percentage is capped. But frequently if I’m at a distance, I need to know if there’s enough time remaining for me to go join the guys on the point before it’s capped so I can get my 10 points.

Or if I’m fighting someone and I see at the top a point somewhat closeby is greyed out with swords on it, I’d like to know if I’ll gain anything by making the trip to complete the cap (as long as no opposing team member is on it of course).

It’d be nice to be able to make informed decisions like that so we can maximize our glory and rank points in hotjoin.

P.S: Obviously this has nothing to do with tPvP where you just want one person in the circle for capping.

It would also be nice if we could see which team was capping. Right now we are only informed that a point is being contested by the cross-swords icon on top of the screen, but not by which team.

This will probably be difficult because if a point is contested, players from both teams might be on it…In which case no single team is capping it.

True, but instead of the white contested circle make it fill gradually with the color of the team camping it. If there are players from both tens inside it could simply be white or show the among of caping by a team. I.e. 5% blue, if it is not “growing” it means that players from both teams are in the circle.

In theory it’s awesome, not sure it’s easy to implement. Although it exists in other games.

Good idea. Basically just a miniature version of what we normally see when we’re standing close to a point.
