Guild Wars 2

Anet,

You have consistently said you care about the PvP side of the game continuously. Well as much as I want to believe it, you guys don’t even take care of the little things for us. What i’m getting at is what I stated in the title of the thread. This holiday, and there is only one Christmas and new year per year, we didn’t get any holiday items for sPvP. Idk why we didn’t but that is very disappointing to me at least. Another thing that has always been an issue is the fact that the gem store is ALL PVE orriented besides a few things we dont even need to buy. There is not a single thing we can really use for PvP. We cant even use those weapon skins that come every holiday for PvP for crying out loud. I mean wtf anet?
Im not sure how much everyone else cares but it matters to me because it shows to me you don’t leave one side completely hangin. You guys are so quick to fix things that don’t matter, rather then fixing the small things that do and even the big things.
Example:
You guys were so quick on fixing the bear/dragon token exploits, but it took you guys forever to fix the block bugs, svanir runes, and every other exploit that actually affected game play.
I love this game and pvp more than anything but, can we at least get some of the small things taken care of while we are working on the big updates. Maybe this next patch will solve all those, but I feel that had to be mentioned and it would be nice to have some status updates once in a while. We are you’re most patient community and without us there is no sPvP community, especially in the NA scene.

I wouldn’t mind a Santa hat to wear all through the summer.

Hopefully sPvP gets the attention it needs, rather than a write-off because it’s not the money-maker. It could be more of one, but the longer it takes to get the attention it needs, the less likely that becomes.

Yeah man. We win gems so we dont have to buy it but with the fees, you have to save the gems to basically keep playing. This is the only place you can win gems with out using gold/buying but yet there is nothing we can use our extra gems on we win in the gemstore. Not even any of the holiday weapon skins. Does that even make any sense?

I’m disappointed by the lack of attention to sPvP in general.

Everybody is bored of conquest-only, at least for casual (non rated) play, but that’s all we’ve got 4 months after release with barely anybody playing sPvP.

The servers/system are/is still buggy; it’s annoying just joining servers.
(clicks to join server at 14/16
waits 10 seconds
is told server is full
selects “Play Now”
is put in a 2v3 match
repeat!)

On top of this, we don’t get any festive skins. No candycane hammers to hit people in the face with. No icicle daggers. No Santa hats.
