Guild Wars 2

that is just stupid : i go to hot join play less than 1 minute couse the game was almost over and i get 130 glory at the end (i was like 7th with 35 glory at score bord) , second situation :i play whole game im second and got 230 points we lost the game 500-440 and i got 130 glory …….??

what is the point of this system couse i dont understand , just go the the end of all match play 1 minute and gain 130 glory ? couse if u get 130 glory in 1 minute what is the point of playing whole games :/ another glory farming idea ?

and why u give boost for wining if there is no matchmaking even simple one by ranks ?

i thought you have to stay at least 7 minutes to be awarded with glory?

U get points based on how long the match was, assuming you got at least some points (like 2 captures or something).
This means if you won in 5 minutes, you get LESS points than if you won in 14 minutes. Which is … eh, Anet, who else.

@dinzdzinier

Since the last update, Glory points + Rank points are based on your victory. It is also based on MATCH duration.

Victory: 220 pts if i’m right
Lost: 130 pts
+ bonus points, 5 pts for each “top statistic”
+ glory booster

And finally, shorter is the match, less points you get.

So yeah, if you enter in a game 30 seconds before the end, and your team is winning, you’ll get 220+ pts.

assuming you got at least some points (like 2 captures or something).

Yeah

No matter how long you are in the match, long as you perform some type of “scoring” action, such as defend/nut/cap a point, assist in killing someone, or even use some type of in map mechanic that tallies to your individual score, then you will get the team reward of glory/rank based on win or lose.

TL:DR Trying hard is no longer rewarded. You now get glory points for doing literally nothing – LEECHERS WELCOME

Its kittening kittened i agree. They should remove that. Tryhardmode is entirely pointless now – just go with your most ridiculous class/build and rofl around the map. If your team wins – nice thats points for you.

Top stat Glorypoints/rankpoints are just an insult! How about increasing those to 100+ each? Maybe then ppl would start rezzing in hotjoin.

The problem is they are still not really rewarding efforts that contribute the most to the win. The most common top stats (captures and kills) are often acquired by zerging and multi-capping uncontested points. This also leads to the highest “personal score”, which really doesn’t seem relevant in the new system, but ofc people still aim for it. The system still needs alot of revision…

I do appreciate rezzers though.

I dont see how someone capping an empty node is bad. And it definitely contributes to the win. I also feel like most kills should be rewarded. Sooo mayn people in hotjoin spec for some kittened soldiers ammy build that simply does nothing.

Besides its not like players are rewarded for playing seriously right now. (5 points for kill on neutral node WTF ANET? srslyx who thought that was a good idea? WHY? WHAT????)

I just tried leeching – 200 points for winning / 125(top score on team 135 xDDD) for losing for doing nothing. Thats actually worse than skyhammer glory farm.

At least with skyhammer glory farm the only affected people were the idiots who wasted time of their life grinding for imaginairy points which dont even mean something in the game.

Now with leechers hotjoin might get really kittened.

Worst of all this new system PUNISHES the people who didnt farm skyhammer before… very unhappy with that change

How about increasing those to 100+ each? Maybe then ppl would start rezzing in hotjoin.

+10 each would be great.

Now, people don’t mind about loosing or winning, this is just ridiculous. Personally, I want to win, cuz I want to lvl up. It’s already hard to reach r40+, now it’s just impossible. Except, if you leech …

I’ve been used to get 250+ pts each game, sometimes 300+, even if my team mates were useless. Now, if there’s no cooperation, even if you get 300+ pts during the match (your personnal score), you’ll get 150, if your team suck.

Imo, this system is pretty good in Team Arena or even Solo Arena, but it is useless in Hot Join.

I mean, in hot join people don’t care about caps, defence, rez and everything … Let them play how they want, even if it’s a bit no brain…

Your best bet is to try to help win the match if you want the most points. It’s training for team-based tournament or SoloQ scoring.
