Guild Wars 2

I think it is time for some non-conquest/sit on the node maps, if some other game can do 3-d moba style game play, then why not GW2?

In spvp, there is even room for temporary upgrade gear, for the accessories and rings, for the shop part.

And with so many factions, and monsters it’d be easy to come up with some good themed moba style maps!

I think they said somewhere they already tried the MOBA style but it was not working out good. Also, no gear upgrade on SPvP, thats ridiculous.

I dislike this whole bunker game mode. Go tanky get cond damage, stay on node forever. It’s also unfun to watch.

Actually that is much more a question of the mapdesign than the gamemode itself, especially with all the secondary offpoint objectives. It is neccessary to have a basic primary objective and most of the time it is best to keep it somehwat stationary to prevent endless kiting/dragging time which would be very easy in this game with stuff like stealth/huge leaps.

I think on temple of the silent storm for example, roaming becomes very important. Just having guardians sit on points won’t do all that much. Also they introduce more and more mechanics that can pressure people off points.

A lot of the people that compalin about the control point model played some hotjoins, tried to kill a bunker and failed and soon stopped to do sPvP. That is sad but the reason here is rather a wrong impression. The secondary objectives alone are powerful enough to change the flow of the map. They are basically different gamemodes by themselves and they already said they want to focuss on them even more. For example the new map has a huge cannon again and collapsing terrain. I can imagine having a relatively immobile guardian that can do nothing but not die might suck there.
