Is this really the right forum for this discussion? Why not move this to the PVE+ Forum so they can stroke each other while screaming “NO MY FORM OF GVG IS THE RIGHT FORM OF GVG OH.. OH…. YES.. YESSSSSSSSSSSSS”
Did anyone else notice they dodged the 5v5 scrim invitation?..
I can totally see a new game mode opening up since pve+ ’ers have been invading the spvp forum and asking for it..
Anet: NO NEW GAME MODES CONQUEST IS MASTER RAC——
Oh the pve+ community wants it?.. okay put it in.
20vs20 people hammering at each other in a blob of particle effects. The only way people could even have a clue wat is happening is from spectating a players pov and even then most of the micro goes lost, so I don’t see the reason why it should have spectator or even leaderboards as it’s totally not competitive.
Spectating gvg is a blast. Much more interesting than spvp because u actually have something to follow: an organic group, massive aoe abilities that are key plays and make an obvious difference, and various maneuvers which are easy to see (flanking, juking, penetrating) – you know, like a real sport.
Watch ogre’s gvg casts on youtube. Theyre getting more viewers and interest than spvp ever did or ever will. Ive been exclusively in wvw since last november, and I dont think ill ever go back to mists unless there’s a major revamp.
I love reading the gvg = skill stuff. Watch videos, people macro #1 spam and just mash all their dmg or heals. Any more then 8v8 and its beyond messy
My only question: what horrible GvG videos have you been watching?
They just need to give you guys 20 v 20 options in Custom Arena, so we don’t ever have to hear this GvG garbage in SPvP again.
I’ve watched many video’s of WvW guild’s and I was mind blown that you guy’s called it skill all you do is PRESS 11111111111 and move in a ball over the top of the other ball. How the hell is that skill.
Pretty disappointed to hear this from you. But fyi gvgs place much more emphasis on the larger group moving perfectly in sync , like cells of an organism, to perform a specific function. It takes a lot of practice and it’s a different KIND of skill. GvG has much more build variety and every prof has a place
Oh and one more thing. U wanna see what natural meta evolution is? Look at gvg. Meta is constantly and naturally in flux. There is so much more u can do with 15-20 people. Not to mention there’s a whole side game revolving around combo fields.
There is a reason why spvp is crawling and people continue to rage about stale kittenty meta, while gvg is flourishing and exploding.
Watch ogre’s gvg casts on youtube. Theyre getting more viewers and interest than spvp ever did or ever will.
I don’t think that is true.
Imo, GvG is really boring and watching it is way too chaotic and spammy.
But as long as there are people actually enjoying it, give them their own platform.
So yeah, +1 from me. But to be honest, I’m not quite sure if PvP is the right section, since many of you want to use your PvE gear and buff food.
Anet hates [your class], since [other classes] got buffs while [your class] only received nerfs.
