Guild Wars 2

Look at the work they put into the PVE lost shores event. Look at how quickly they react to fixing bugs. If SPVP got 1/4 of the attention PVE gets, I’d be a happy dude.

Come on man, these PVE players will just go from game to game and will abandon GW2 at the sight of a new MMO. But we PVP players are here to stay (if we were given better attention). Look at good PVP games like Counter-strike, Warcraft 3, etc. They are still going strong.

If Anet was smarter, they would invest much more in their SPVP loyal customer-base. Someone needs to /gloveslap management and tell them to allocate more programmers to SPVP.

agreed….for a Team that made the first game a complete PVP joy the second game is nothing … in terms of PVP

guess they wanted to draw in the casual PVE and ZergVZerg people with this game and pretty much screw the sPVP crowd…even if most of us are loyal followers from GW1 and its PVP

Wasn’t PvP in the GW1 two months after release pretty terrible? Because that’s how I remember it, it took them months and months to get it to a good point… but maybe that’s just me and I remember things with patience not a sense of “now now now”.

Anet is loyal to their player base. Their player base is probably 90 to 95 percent PvE.

Considering the few thousand (ish?) players who regularly PvP, Anet has put in quite a bit of manpower. Not sure what you’re asking them to do here.

It was but remember…they have had years (with GW1) to learn and see what people want.

You would think they would have brought this knowledge over to a new game instead of sticking us with the least liked game mode (kinda like in GW1) and no game variety.

Also they are bias to PVE in this game if people cant see that then they are blind…no offence. PVP is currently a joke in this and that should not be that way seeing GW1 had a large PVP crowd because of the way that game was made for it.

Its like they had a brain fart and forgot everything when making PVP for GW2

GW1 was PVP at its heart….it lived up to its name (not just the lore)

They have screwed their loyal PVP fanbase from GW1 with this current PVP setup

Indeed, I made a similar threat like this in the WvWvW forum but yea, it sees that GW2 is another PvE-MMO. PvP is overall in such a sorry state atm, it hurts

The PvE players spend more money, and there are alot more of them.

Don’t waste your time, they don’t even give attention to this part of the forum.

There isn’t a subscription fee for this game, so the number of PvE’rs isn’t quite as important as in other MMO’s. Give us PvPers something to spend money on (private servers, a way to use our dye’s in PvP so we actually care about Dye packs, hell, anything) and actual, solid PvP and I’ll gladly drop 15 bucks a month into Anets account.

Agree about giving PvPers a tie in to the rest of the game or shown dyes anything to spend a little money on and help the PvP community expand.

I have to agree…..People cry about PVE and there will be responses and fixes from the Devs…. sPVP complains and we get a blog full of empty promises…

This game is balanced with BvBvB and PvE in mind :/

Unfortunately for me since I think the spvp/tpvp part of the game is the one worth all of my attention/playtime

Your not the only one. There are plenty of us who feel the same way. However its like they don’t want us to sPVP or they enjoy trolling us with the current horrible setup and no game variety.

If it was a sub based game I’d agree with you. However the PvE and to a lesser extent W3 community is where ANet is getting their money via gem store. The SPvP community just by it’s very nature spends far far far less money.

Money = power.

I don’t mind,really i don’t.

I just wish i had been told before i bought the game.

If i knew i’d be beta testing the PvP features of GW2 for months,i would have asked them to pay me instead.What an opportunity to make good cash gone.

Well PvP players dont have anything to spend money for in the store – If they added something that makes u different in PvP (like guys said – dyes shown during matches, unique item skins, custom servers-i mean sooner than “When its done in another 1/2 year”), me and a lot of people who I know would spend a lot of money for it too..
